    My fiancé and I come at least once a month. It's always so good, the service is amazing, they always get us sat quickly and bring the meat out very quick as well. Its been my biggest pregnancy craving

    meats and spicy beef broth

    I had All That Shabu a really long time ago in Irvine and remember loving it, but there's just so much competition in OC so I haven't been back in years! I tried it again with my friend the other day because we were in the area. I thought it was just okay and probably wouldn't come back here specifically because there's just a lot of better places, but this isn't bad at all for the price. The inside was huge and dimly lit, and they had a large self serve bar for hot sides, drinks, hot pot toppings like veggies and seafood, sauces, and dessert. It was a great vibe! There's a pretty large variety of broths to pick from which is nice. We both got the spicy beef, which tasted rich and tomatoey so it was different than a typical beef bone broth that I expected! It was nice because the acidity helped to balance with the richness of the meats. Of all the meats, our favorites were the brisket and the beef short plate. Personally I like to know which meats are which but sometimes when I asked, the servers couldn't really tell them apart so it kinda sucked because I wanted to know which ones I actually liked to order more of those. They were quick with taking our orders though and meats came out really quick. For hot sides, they had a large variety of things, such as fried rice, crab, crispy fried chicken, kimchi, and more. I liked that there was variety! I just think that overall, the experience didn't wow me as much as it did back then, but definitely cheaper than most places and so you get what you pay for!

    Personally i like number 2 for meat it is fatty. Alot of the other meats dont have enough fat in them. But everyone else likes to eat the other ones. For the broth i get bone. Some people get half spicy and half bone. Service was really good. When we were running low on meat they came by to ask if we wanted more. They have a sauce bar where yiu can make your own dipping sauce. Mines consist if garlic, green onion, ponzu and the wasabi green things. The middle sections have veggies, noodles, seafood, etc for your hot pot. They also have fried food at the far right. When the crab legs come out fresh, they are amazing but on the sweet side. Definitely recommend trying it. I forgot to get ice creammm.

    This is one of my go-to shabu-shabu spots. The spicy broth is my favorite and always hits the spot. The quality of the crab and shrimp is great, and I love the variety of side dishes, including japchae, fried chicken, and tteokbokki. Drinks and ice cream are included, which makes the experience even better. The parking lot is spacious, the service is friendly, and the meat is served quickly. My only complaint is that the prices have continued to go up over the years. Even so, I still enjoy coming back because of the quality, variety, and overall dining experience.

    I came here with a friend on a Saturday night, and there was about a 30-minute wait. We waited and were seated within that time frame. I honestly can't believe how busy all the AYCE places are on a Saturday night. After we sat down, a server came by to ask which broth we wanted. I asked what was popular, and he recommended the beef bone broth, so I went with that. My friend ordered the spicy beef broth after the server assured her it wasn't too spicy. I ended up finding my broth a bit bland and later added some of the spicy beef broth to give it more flavor. We tried different beef cuts as well as lamb. Honestly, there wasn't a huge difference among the beef cuts, except that the filet mignon was leaner and therefore chewier than the others. The lamb was okay. We ended up eating more from the bar, which included vegetables, seafood, and cooked dishes. I really liked the corn because it was sweet, and I also enjoyed the chrysanthemum greens (tung ho), which I ate a lot of. As for the cooked food, the deep-fried crab was just okay. The highlights were the japchae and the tteokbokki, while the bulgogi wasn't anything special. At the sauce bar, they had a lot of Japanese-style sauces like ponzu, sesame sauce, and wasabi ponzu. Soy sauce and chili oil weren't at the sauce bar but were located near the drink station. Speaking of drinks, the unsweetened green tea and black tea were also bland. They weren't sweet, but they also lacked a strong tea flavor. I'd say the drinks here aren't great unless you're going for soft drinks. They also had rice available in a large rice cooker if you wanted some. For dessert, they offer soft-serve vanilla and chocolate ice cream. My friend tried it and liked it. I had the sesame balls instead, which were okay. Overall, everything here was just alright. With a $34.99 weekend dinner price, I guess it's reasonable given inflation--if you can eat enough to justify it. I did feel like I had to push myself to get my money's worth, so I'd only come back when I'm really hungry and have the appetite for it.

    Great all around shabu place. Would recommend coming for the weekend/dinner only meat that includes filet mignon, ribeye, and beef chuck flap cuts. Spacious place and place does get busy. Waitlist in the store. Lots of sides and hot foods to choose from. Plenty of veggies and frozen items for the shabu. Their hot items are tasty and made fresh. You can see them frying the crabs at the counter and preparing their other hot foods. Broth is solid and tasty. Meats here a very thinly sliced and cooks instantly. My favorite was the ribeye. Due to its tenderness and fat ratio. Big sauce options and aromatics to choose from. This plaza gets busy and parking may be hard. Have had their other location in Irvine. Solid shabu place. Host service can be better. Saw customers standing in front a few times and didn't acknowledge new customers coming in. Was not a welcoming experience.

    This was definitely a great Hotpot place to go if you love a variety of vegetables if you love tons and tons of meat in your soup. It's a great time if you have plenty of time to do hot pot. I don't recommend this if you don't really eat a lot at hot pot places or if you really like just the one bowl of food this is not it for you but great for groups. Great for people who wanna share. I love the variety. I think my favorite part was the dessert. They offer a soft serve ice cream. Really love the options so many different types of vegetables and if you're looking to get your protein on, this is definitely a great place. I live a high protein diet life and this will get you all your macros. Will get you all your proteins and all your fibers so go now go often!! I love the lunch special pricing by the way. Super solid deal for all that you get. It's really a great time. Great bang for your buck.

    Genuinely love this spot for shabu shabu in Alhambra! Their service is quick and super friendly. There's a huge amount of options at the self serve area and the sauce bar as well! Their meat quality is always on point and the portions are good value. Love that I can finish my meal with ice cream at the end too! Super underrated spot!

    I've been to All About Shabu several times, and while the soup and meat quality are somewhat still solid, this visit felt a bit underwhelming. Service was just okay. It wasn't as quick or attentive as usual, even though the restaurant wasn't very busy. I've been here during peak times and still received better service, so that was disappointing. What stood out most was the decline in the quality of the warm food items. Still an okay spot for shabu.

    Soup, meat, my friend lol

    Good shit. The food is of course amazing, many broths, meat, and side dishes to choose from. Despite many people being here, the waiters tried their best to get to us quickly, offering us refills of broth and more meat. Obviously, ambiance was great. Smelled like meat. Top notch.

    Food was alright, I would stick with the short plate, and the sesame sauce was pretty good. Service was honestly pretty bad. The Korean guy with the glasses better be the owner's son, seeing how he ignores tables and presses us for trying to order rounds. Had to flag down someone every time we wanted to order more meat or needed more broth, probably could've gone 30 mins without anyone checking in. They handed us our check after 90 mins and we asked if we could order one last round since we absolutely should've been able to order more frequently throughout the meal. The Korean guy then comes by and questions us for having ordered more rounds. Not sure what this guy's problem is but hope he gets it together

    This my family favorite hotpot place. They always have a ton of fresh ingredients for your hotpot. The cooked stuff could be better though as its probably been out in the heating lamp all day and has dried out or gotten hard like their popcorn chicken. But the broth are good and the servers and very efficient and nice. The place is good and not overly expensive for what you get

    Randy G.

    AYCE Shabu what that gives Vegetarian/Vegans a $5 discount.... That is better than most who don't give discounts at all. The soup bases are good and the veggie offerings are pretty good as well. I've been here a few times now...and don't mind going back. There are so many choices...only thing is this place is such a huge location and I've never seen it have a wait or even filled up.... I definitely will be back though since it is pretty good overall.

    Yes, as long as you pay for 2 people lol

    Yup, put your name down when you arrive. Need whole party there to seat

    Can you make reservations?

    Can one person eat here? Or do does it have to be 2 people or more people together to eat.

    Absolutely, solo eaters are totally welcome. The tables are set up as 4 sweaters but worth their own individual burner stations. I've been there several times and often see single diners especially around lunchtime.

    Is the vegetarian broth vegan?

    Hi do you have outdoor dining as of December 2022?

    No outdoor dining per se. They do have some bench seating but it's for staff last time I was there.

    What's the price per person on the weekend? (adult and kid 7yrs). What is best time for weekend dinner?

    $31/adult & $16/kid (5-8y/o) or $19/kid (9-10). Best time for dinner is probably before 6/6:30pm, gets crowded around normal dinner rush. Reservations fill up fast too, so might just have to walk-in & wait.

    Do you allow solo diner?

    Yes, they do. I've dined here alone several times and they are very welcoming and accommodating of their solo diners. :)

    Is there a non ayce option here?

    No, the only options are Lunch AYCE or Dinner/Holiday AYCE

    Do you take reservation?

    Yes, but only for groups of 6 or more is available. Reservations was almost always available during the daytime on weekdays. It was very good for birthday parties with affordable price and great quality! :)

    Hello, are you open on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day?

    That are open.

    Is this location still open? Yelp has it as closed and their number does not seem to be working.

    yes, just went there yesterday 12/1/21 for lunch..

    Today (12/2/2021) I was looking at Yelp and saw that All That Shabu has closed? Is this accurate? I thought this restaurant was popular and profitable. Why did it close?

    It is no accurate. I think Yelper report it closed but Yelp hasn't has chance to verify it. It is Still open as of Yesterday 12/2/2021 8:30PM. I went by to check.

    Is the side dish selection the same for lunch and dinner/weekends?

    Will it be weekday price for lunch this friday?

    It was $24.99 for lunch on Friday 4/29/22

    What time is last seating?

    9:30pm

    Do you take reservations for a big group?

    Yes they do.

    Is credit card accepted?

Tried a couple more items they were either hard stale smelled and tasted fishy or just smelled bad. I wish I could have gotten my money back but I gave up. We had our fill of sushi and crab legs went to wash our hands where I almost slipped because they decided to throw soapy water by the toilets to start cleaning them for the night. They close at 9pm and we were leaving at 8:15. How this place stays open I have no idea but we will never be back. Good luck eat at your own risk

With the cost of groceries, gas, and dining out continuing to climb, people are looking for a place where they can get a good meal without spending a fortune. This place fits the bill. If you come before 4:00 p.m. on a weekday, lunch is around $15. That's about what you'd spend on a burger, fries, and a drink at some fast-food chains these days, except here you get an entire buffet with plenty of choices. The salad bar is well stocked and includes fresh fruit. They also have sushi rolls and nigiri. Is it sushi restaurant quality? No. But considering that one specialty roll at a sushi restaurant can cost $12-$16 by itself, it's a nice bonus. My favorite item is fried chicken. It's crispy, flavorful, and consistently juicy. I would gladly pay the lunch price just for the chicken. They also serve a very good pot roast, meaty pork ribs, and on Fridays they have a surprisingly good rib roast. Those are just a few of the highlights because there are plenty of other dishes to choose from. As for the staff, most of the employees appear to be young and may be working their first job. The cooks aren't trying to be gourmet chefs, they focus on preparing the buffet items well, and overall, they do a good job keeping the food coming despite how busy the restaurant gets. If you're looking for a fine dining experience prepared by professionally trained chefs, this probably isn't the place for you. But if your goal is to enjoy a wide variety of good food at a price that's hard to beat in today's economy, this buffet is definitely worth a visit. Just be prepared for a crowd, that's usually a sign they're doing something right.

We did have to wait in line before getting seated. The wait wasn't too long for our party of 7 as it took maybe 15 min or so. The food was okay. It's what you would expect from an AYCE buffet like this. It's maybe on par with the likes of Golden Corral or Hometown Buffet (from back in the day). The highlight things to eat may be the made-to-order Mongolian BBQ where you load up your bowl with veggies, protein (chicken, pork, shrimp, beef, etc), noodles, and seasonings. Hand it over to the staff cook and they hand you a pager to notify you when done. The other food highlight may be the Japanese sushi area. While not the highest quality of ingredients, it was still decent for the price of the buffet and the fact that there's a staff member making the sushi rolls consistently rather than just leaving a bunch out in a tray to get old and dry. Definitely might be an even better deal as a lunch AYCE option. But for dinner it's still nice to go to.

Food was good, not exceptional, but it didn't match the price. And so today, before setting out on my rig for Oakley California, Ive decided to come back to one of San Gabriel Valley's most jam packed buffetts, and see what's changed. You walk in, there's a wait list, and on a weekday, seats filled with seniors amongst seniors, a sea of half bald Asian heads and grey hair. All I can say is, this place checks every box on a diner's list looking for true cost savings and a diverse array of dishes. The seniors have voted. The hibachi stall offering steaks, pork chops, pork bellies , Shrimp to be honest taste no less better than what Red Rock was trying to do with its grilled steaks. The sushi here is surprisingly fresh and Trumps Luxe Buffett in Ontario in terms of food freshness. They have an entire dim sum bar for brunch goers and the overall hot food bar I give it a 7/10 while giving the Cold Fruits and Desserts Bars a 9/10. Have no idea what to eat for lunch?

The food is below mediocre. The drinks are watered down. The service is non-existent.

The serving stations are dirty. Other diners have little regard for cleanliness or the decency not to mix serving tongs or ice cream scoopers. About the only neutral thing you can count on here is the jello - because no one can mess up jello.

There's a solid variety of options, and you can definitely find something to satisfy whatever you're in the mood for. A few of the fruit and sushi items seemed like they may have been sitting out for a bit, which can happen at buffets, but there were still plenty of other choices to enjoy. The Mongolian grill wasn't running during my visit (I believe it's available during dinner hours), so that's something I'd be curious to try next time. The standout for me was actually the soups -- both the hot & sour soup and the miso soup were flavorful and comforting, and I ended up going back for more. Service was fine: nothing over-the-top, but attentive enough to keep things moving smoothly. All in all, it's a decent, no-frills buffet spot. I'd call it a solid 3-star experience, especially if you're nearby and craving variety in one place.

    Me and my two kids came here on a Saturday around 3pm. Not too crowded and we were able to sit at…read moreone of the booth near the buffet, which was very convenient. This place has the best quality crab legs out of all the buffet places I've been to so far. I prefer them warm and they were steamed well and not salty at all. I was able to enjoy the true flavors of crabs. We also loved their sashimi. My son loved the tuna so much. Their hot food section had a lot of tasty stuff like Thai chicken, stir fry beef, fried fish and calamari and so on. I also like that they have clam chowder. I wish they have more varieties of the grill section. They don't have boneless beef steaks other than marinated galbi with bones. Ice cream section was cleared out when my kids went for a second round and never got replenished before we decide not to wait anymore. It would be great if they can replenish dishes often. Ambiance is well-lit, and spacious. Overall, a very solid buffet experience and worthy of returning.

    Fuji Buffet and Grill has a pretty solid dining area. There are beautiful chandeliers, and nice…read moredarker colors to juxtapose the bright lights. The service was also pretty good. The servers were very thorough when clearing the dirty plates and refilling everyone's drinks. Unfortunately, they were less thorough when loading/unloading clean/dirty dishes. My group's table was near this area, and the sound of silverware and plates being dumped and loaded into bins and carts reoccurred every few minutes and interrupted conversations. I will split up the food into two parts, seafood and everything else. Seafood- I do not eat seafood, so I took my family's word for it. They were very satisfied with the crab legs and the crawfish. They said it was worth the 40 dollars and they filled their bellies with multiple plates. My girlfriend said the shrimp did not taste good or fresh. All of the other food- i tried most of the other items, but I honestly only enjoyed one row of selection: the stir fry area. This included chow mein, beef and broccoli, sesame chicken, and black pepper beef. This was the most flavorful and fresh set of flavors I experience during. My dinner. Also, the chicken wings were cooked perfectly. Unfortunately they needed sauce. Fuji buffet offers quite a few sauces, but none paired well with the wings. Also the restaurant provided 4 giant bottles of sauce, but they were not all labeled and they were admittedly dirty on the outside. In short- they were slippery to the point where they slide out of my grip. Also, the bottles had sauce dripping outside of them and needed to be clean. So, I decided to pass on them. The desert area was nice, but the items did not feel or taste fresh. The cream puffs were soggy and the tiramisu fell flat. Either all of these things considered 3/5 for sea food lovers. 2/5 for sea food avoiders

    This is definitely the best lobster spot in town. The green onion and ginger stir fry style with…read morethe noddles on the bottom soaking up the sauce, so delicious! And favorite dishes is the basil clam. Service is friendly and attentive even though they are always busy and packed.

    Came to Boston Lobster as my friends had set up a lunch here. Haven't been to a place like this in…read morea while! We ordered quite a bit. Obviously, you can't come to a place that has lobster in the menu without ordering lobster, and we got the House Special Lobster (Large) with Garlic Noodle. Other items we ordered were the French Style Beef Cube, Braided Crab Meat & Fish Maw Soup, Beef Mongolian, Crispy Fried Sole Fish, BBQ Fried Rice, Clams with Spicy Sauce, Crispy Fried Squid with Salt and Pepper, and Clams with Black Bean Sauce. The portions are actually quite massive for each dish. All of it was very solid and tasty Chinese food. We were definitely very stuffed after this lunch was over! Service here is solid enough for a Chinese place. They were pretty quick with getting us extra plates to change out our dirty plates and more bowls as needed. And they were quick with the water. But yeah, you do have to flag them down to get their attention. They do have a parking lot here, and we got here early enough on a Sunday where parking wasn't an issue. However, I can see it being a problem on busier days. Boston Lobster is definitely worth a visit if you want solid Chinese food at a fair affordable price. Really good!
