Arrived a few minutes before lunch was ending but told our server we'd like to enjoy the dinner options. Sashimi is a dinner item, nigiri for lunch.

The food was really good for a buffet. I like how you have sushi that you can order as well as sushi from the buffet. The sushi that we did order came out in a timely manner, we weren't waiting long. We tried the Nana, UT, Mountain Fuji, and the dragon roll and they all tasted really good. The sushi we got from the buffet was also pretty fresh, and we loved how you had a variety of food to choose from. There's options for non seafood eaters, and also options for kids (fried, dumplings, etc). The dessert was also very tasty, we really enjoyed the crème brûlée. It was creamy with a nice caramelized hard sugar topping that was satisfying to crack into. The place was nice, clean, and spacious. Everything was organized nicely, and we really enjoyed our meal here. Would definitely recommend and already wanting to come back soon!

It's one of those places where you go because you're hungry and want options, not because you're craving something specific. The selection is decent, food is warm, and they keep things stocked. If you're looking for gourmet, this isn't it. If you're looking to eat a lot without spending a lot, it gets the job done. Would I go out of my way for it? Probably not. Would I go back if I'm in the area and starving? Sure.

Even when…read moreit's really busy, a group of 4 can be seated within 20 min and there's Hall Pass or The Bruce around to walk to if you wanna wander. The appetizers come with the hot pot and there are plenty of options to munch on while your ingredients heat up. Korean fried chicken, edamame, and gyoza are my favorites. After ordering your drinks, soup base, and meats (vegetarians get a cheaper option), you can get right to the veg/seafood buffet. They have a great sauce station and a big wall of different kinds of popular ramen packs to use if desired. Once you get settled, you can keep ordering the meats you like until you get full. I like to keep a little note of what I think of each one so I remember for next time. These are my personal opinions: 1 Mr Shabu ribeye - tender lean, best 2 oyster blade muscle - meatier but only ok 3 Mr. Shabu beef kurubi eye - chewy, wavy, not good 4 Mr. Shabu pork single rib belly - fatty, bad 5 US wagyu beef round eye - tender lean, good 6 US wagyu beef clod eye - jerky striated texture, bleh 7 Mr. Shabu beef boneless short rib - oily but in a good way, little chewy, great flavor 8 Mr. Shabu pork collar butt - fatty but comes apart easy, ok 9 Mr. Shabu lamb shoulder - no Usually if I'm playing it real safe with just two, I pick 1 and 7 :) I hope you come to try all the different flavors for yourself!

Extremely generous portions and even more lamb than what I had expected to come for that price. The service was so friendly and sweet. There was a live music when we came, and they were pretty good. The place is huge and very bright. It appears from the buffet that they might have a buffet lunch, but I'm not sure about that. We had the rasmalai for dessert. It took a couple of bites for our taste buds to adjust to the strange taste and texture. But we ate the whole thing. It is spiced with cardamom, which is supposed to be good for your stomach after a meal like this. Oh, and the heat level. We ordered no heat in the butter lamb, so it just had a hint of spice. I ordered a three out of five on the lamb biryani, and it made my face sweat, but it was so delicious. The raita served with it cut the heat somewhat. I would absolutely come back here and try something different as well.
