A solid place to get Shabu. Friendly service, good vibes, good meat, selection, and a fantastic vegetable bar. Stop by here the other day to get Shabu for four people, and we were seated pretty quickly. The service was excellent. The meat section was good and the price was very reasonable. Their veggie bar was fresh and clean as well all the sides. It was self for service so you can get as much as you want. As for the meat, the cuts were nice and thin for easy cooking. read more

I took my parents out for early Mother's Day meal! We always enjoy our time here since they have the freshest vegetables, meat, seafood, and other side dishes that are super delicious. We are regulars here and we never get sick of this place because there are so many different choices of ingredients for shabu shabu and soup choices that you can switch it up and taste something completely different each time! The restaurant is super spacious, clean and the service is amazing. The servers are quick, thoughtful and always smiling, ready to serve the customers with kindness and this is another reason why I come back here every time. I believe its not only about how delicious the food is but how great the service is, and this restaurant is a great example of that! read more

We went here for our weekly date night and we had a wonderful time. They had a variety of broths to choose from and the two that we tried were very flavorful for shabu shabu. The sauce bar was adequate and the non-meat bar was very impressive. The meats were cut extremely thin, but I didn't mind, the staff was always quick to take our order at the press of a button. I especially recommend the lamb leg, pork belly, and beef belly. Overall, we were very impressed and will be returning. read more

Manna Shabu - Korean Near Me - Carrollton, Texas

Came here on a Friday night date night as hot pot regulars and had an overall pleasant experience here! I got the house broth, and found it average overall in flavor. The bar had a relatively diverse selection of toppings, though I found it catered more so to fish than to vegetables. There was a small smattering of premade food that I didn't try, but bf said the japchae was pretty good. Sauce bar and rice are also self serve. I did want to warn that we had better experiences with some meats than others. They do provide them in pretty small plates of thin cuts. While we really enjoyed the pork belly and beef belly, the ribeye fell very flat and kind of just tasted like plain ground beef when cooked. The lamb to me tasted odd. And because you have to finish your meat plates, we had to eat what we didn't like anyways. Bf tried the fish option and said while it was okay, it was thin and falling apart. Wait staff was kind and would come when the call button on the table was pressed. We were offered ice cream upon paying and it was pretty good! I'd say overall our experience here was good and we will likely return! read more

I liked the rib eye, beef belly, pork belly, and lamb legs. The meat is cut very thin and tastes delicious. I also enjoyed the octopus. They have a sauce station. They have soy sauce, Chinese BBQ sauce, and sesame oil, but they don't have Chinese black vinegar. They have the white vinegar that you can clean with (I did not like this in my sauce), but I really would like the black vinegar instead. read more

Finally tried this location of Manna (since the Plano location had closed) and overall enjoyed our visit. Everything was consistent with their Plano location in terms of broth and veggie station. The extra plus about this location was their ramen bar. I loved the variety of their ramen selection! The cuts of meat were sliced perfectly and good quality. The staff were overall very attentive and friendly. Much more friendly and helpful than their bbq joint next door... which made the visit so pleasant. We will definitely be back! read more

Great place for Shabu, we go there pretty regularly. Always a good experience and rarely a wait for a table.

This was my first hot pot experience and it was super fun. They have a huge variety of meats, veggies, sauces, seafood, noodles...basically anything you could want, they have it. Come prepared with a big appetite! Will definitely be back. Super cute spot with pretty good service. read more

Great service and I love the buffet and sauce bar! Ice cream is included as well. This is my new go to hot pot place!

I had a great first ever hot pot experience at Manna Shabu. The toppings were ample. I really love and prefer the buffet style of hotpot to the conveyor belt/ order at your table types. I had no issue with the heating elements. Interior was very cozy. They had the most fresh and delicious broth. I really enjoyed the fish they served here and of course, my most favorite, kabocha squash. Hot pot is a special treat, and this is my favorite of the three hot pot places I've tried in DFW! Staff in the restaurant were friendly as well. read more

This is one of my favorite hotpot spots. Ive been coming here for years and the service and quality has never failed! Food is always bomb and the sauce bar is goated!! read more

We did the combo dinner option for both kbbq and hot pot ($35) per person. Great service! We all got seated quickly and ordered 3 meats per round. They have a large self serve section for the shabu part with hot foods, desserts, and veggies/seafood. The meat for the shabu was extremely thin, however other items were great! Would rec a large group for this restaurant. read more

We've been coming to the excellent Manna Shabu for the last two years, and it only ever gets better. The range of ingredients are always spot on, and I love the whole communal experience of cooking and sharing and experimenting at the table. Plus I love the recent addition of hot and ready small sides you can help yourself to as you nosh and wait for your delicious soup to cook. Tobbi was our server last week, and he was great as the service always in. We're fans! read more

This place is one of the spots that I remember during my Texas trip! Me and my family came to Texas for a trip and this restaurant is the first one that caught our attention! - Food: The food choices is great! We love AYCE hotpot and if you don't know (BBQ AND HOTPOT ARE SEPERATED) That's what we just found out when we came to the place. The soup and food items are great! Suits our taste - Service: This is where we a bit upset..the "uncle" (just a respectful way to call him) who served us is Korean and the attitude towards us is different from how he would talk or serve the food to other Korean customers. Also it's the reason we won't comback because we don't feel like we are welcomed here. - The ambiance: It is neat and nice seatings! It feels open and the seats are comfortable too read more

Service can be a little slow, but they easily seated our large group within 10 minutes on a weekend. I LOVE the corn cheese. It's not consistent (sometimes more oily, less cheesy, more corn), but I don't mind, I love the sizzling plate. I enjoyed the ramen as well! Meat options are good, and I like the cleanliness of everything. read more

Manna Shabu - Korean Near Me - Carrollton, Texas

Stopped by as a party of 4 on a Thursday night. Everyone got waters. Total was $130. Meat was good quality, you order 3 at a time . It's get your own veggies from the veggie bar and they have some fruit to choose from. There are also some cooked sides/ appetizers like mandu, spicy bbq chicken bites , Tteok-bokki & japchae. They have like 5/6 broths to choose from. I ordered the miso one and it was good. They also have a sauce bar. The restaurant was not too busy, they have a two hour limit and although we had not kept ordering meat and going up to the buffet area, you could tell they were ready for us to leave. The waitress kept walking by and giving dirty looks. Until she finally came up and basically kicked us out. We had been there just before 2.5 hours so the time limit is VERY STRICT. It was around 9:30p so well before closing time at 11. read more

So many items on the AYCE that you can choose from! And everything tasted great!! They can get packed depending when you go, so you can call ahead just to get an estimate of wait times. Small parking area. Super clean. Friendly workers. Service pace was on the more relax slower side. Servers are very helpful if you have any questions. I love that cheesy corn is on the ayce! I'm wanting to gatekeep but also highly recommend this place! read more

Locations in Carrollton, Lewisville, and Plano, Manna Shabu specializes in Korean style shabu, or hotpot. For only $30 a person you can have unlimited broth, 11 types of meat, and wide variety of toppings at the bar including veggies, seafood, noodles, and even BANCHANS! (This is new). All their meats are excellent and served perfectly shaved thin for easy cooking. The options of meats vary from fish, lamb, chicken, different cuts of beef, etc. Rating their broth: (5/5) Manna House Beef Soup Although I usually prefer spicy broth, their beef broth is the best imo as it has light yet very savory flavor that gets better and better as the broth evaporates and broth condenses. (4/5) Chinese Hot Pot "Huo Guo" This is my go to if I want more a little more spice and herbal flavor broth. One thing about Korean hotpot is that the broth is always kept light instead of bold like the Chinese style, so keep that in mind. Also it's not that spicy. (3.5/5) Tomyum A traditional Thai soup base with a sour and spicy taste. I will again emphasize what I said in the Huo Guo broth. It's very light with a bit of tart and lemongrass as tomyum should, but it's very light. The flavor didn't deepen as much as I wanted it to as it evaporated. read more

My husband and I always went to Manna Kbbq so we wanted to try what the shabu was like and it was a great experience! They have so many Korean side dishes that were so delicious that I was getting full from it. They had varieties of Korean option were hotpot and their soup base was very light. They took our empty plate very quickly and took our orders efficiently. I absolutely loved it. They even offered us ice cream at the end of the meal. Definitely a great to go to if you're ever craving a AYCE shabu place. read more

Came here again for give it a try hoping it would be a little better than before, cause my family came in town and we were in the area for hot pot. But I was definitely wrong, I feel that the service got worse? We were seated when we got in, but when we finished our first round of meat we clicked the button 4 times (we waited about 5-7 minutes before clicking it again) before getting someone to actually come over to get our next order. Keep in mind it was a Thursday night and it wasn't as packed probably about 5 other tables. When we finally got her attention we got the meats, but some of my family needed more soup because we waited so long for the meats, and we clicked the button multiple times again (just like before, waiting a few minutes before clicking again) and no one ever came, we had to get up to go to a worker to ask them. Not sure why the service has gone so down, but probably won't be back again unfortunately, sucks because this used to be one of my favorite places for AYCE hot pot. The only positive thing about my experience was seeing how they did a mini remodel in the inside, they now have a section to serve warm foods, like Tteokboki, japchae, dumplings, chicken, and etc. but other than that, my experience was not great. read more

This is me and my girlfriend's favorite hotpot place! The options from the cold bar as well as hot bar are excellent!! The service here is also wonderful, the waitresses are super sweet and attentive. The table cleaners are also very nice to make sure our plates don't pile up too high. It can get a bit loud in there but that's the only downside! Love this place! read more

Great all-you-can-eat hotpot! I tried the house soup, and it was delicious. The buffet at the back offers a wide variety of seafood, veggies, and other sides for the hotpot. I especially loved the sauce bar and the additional side dishes like radish paper, fruits, and wings. Plus, they offer free ice cream! There's a button at the table to call staff, and they respond quickly. The ambiance is simple, and there was a decent crowd for a Sunday dinner. read more

My second time in here and it has been a great experience. The servers are attentive and so sweet. Will definitely be back.

3.4 stars! Staff was great and friendly. The food was honestly okay. Nothing stood out for sure. The broths were bland and lacked flavor. Meats were so thin, I couldn't even taste the meat. So sad. But service was good and they had a self serve area. read more

I actually really liked this place! I got the house beef soup base and it's slightly sweet and rich. And the Tom yum soup base was a little light for me but still good. All the side dishes and fruits seem to be on a rotation which helps us from coming back. The services was decent and it can be a little slow during shift changes. I deducted one star because the meat slice was incredibly thin and they stacked our raw meat plate on top of each other when serving. read more

It's one of the safest options; my wife and I like to go there. Food isn't bad, and the service is helpful. We usually go before it gets packed. They should make the sauce station a little bigger for the busy lines. read more

This place is great! We decided to try it because it had the best ratings in Carrollton for hot pot. It's separate from the Manna bbq, so we didn't smell after. The manager was super sweet and made us feel very comfortable. The small bites were just okay, but the sauce, veggies, meat, broth were all really great. We all got the beef broth and a mixture of the 5 or 6 beef options. The sweet potato noodles are my favorite thing to get in hot pot and this place had the best ones I've ever had. Also really high quality wood-ear mushrooms. My wife likes kombucha squash and said it was great here. Ooh and free ice cream at the end. The strawberry ones have huge chunks of strawberries in them. Definitely coming back read more

I recognize this is a chain, but this location in Dallas is the only one I've been to (so can't comment on the one in Austin). That said, I came here with a couple friends that live in Dallas and we had a wonderful experience! I've eaten a lot of shabu shabu in my time, and the food here was as authentic as any. They had tons of options, there wasn't a single thing they didn't have that I was looking for that I'd had in other places (e.g. tofu skins, that one isn't common but they had it!). And of course given it's all you can eat, my friends and I left stuffed. It was a flat price, when we went I believe it was like $25 per person? That may be different now, but we felt the price was justified for the meal. Would definitely go again if craving shabu shabu -- it didn't absolutely blow me away but it completely got the job done! read more

Really solid place for AYCE shabu! They have good quality meat and I like that the veggies and seafood are all self serve. I usually get the beef bone broth, but they offer about 4-5 different options for broth. The meat quality is also really good--my favorite cuts are the beef ribeye, the boneless short rib, the beef belly, and the fish filets. I do wish their sauce bar were a little more extensive and that their chinese bbq sauce (sha cha) were the bulls head brand instead of a knockoff/sweetened version but that's my only complaint! Overall really delicious food, and perfect if you are craving hot pot or soup! read more

The settings of the place changed, way much better now. They have new hot food in the food section, and the service was amazing! I will definitely come back. Ten stars for Hanah! - Riz and Xian read more

Manna Shabu - Korean Near Me - Carrollton, Texas

what happened to this place?? seriously WHAT HAPPENED!!! I went here for the first time last year with a friend and we had an amazing experience. the meats were all very good quality, great and quick service, etc. I visited again a couple weeks back with the same friend, and we were really taken aback by the awful meat quality. quite a few cuts of beef were so tough and extremely hard to chew and swallow -- we weren't able to finish a few pieces of meat, and the server pointed it out twice. I told her that the meat was too tough, but she wasn't very happy about it. I do understand the concern of wasting food because it is AYCE, but at the same time, there should be a standard. The meat should be edible, not a choking hazard.. skip this ayce korean bbq, go to gen. read more

My husband and I tried Manna Shaba for the first time and had a wonderful experience with Hanah! She was very attentive and recommended different meats that we thoroughly enjoyed, she even brought us a mixed special sauce for us to try. The meat selection was perfect and the salad bar was fully stocked during our time here. The sauce bar was missing labels which would have been helpful, but we were still able to navigate it. Looking forward to coming back! read more

Very good! Clean enviornment, good meat, wide range of sauce options, very good and attentive service. Free ramen as well which is nice to see as some AYCE restaurants in the area charge extra. read more

I had an AMAZING experience here!! Normally I think KBBQ meat is usually around the same quality, but the meat here was surprisingly good and flavorful. The hot pot broth was also surprisingly soft and tender. The K-pop music is very loud, so I wouldn't necessarily recommend if you're not a fan of that, but I would highly recommend the food! read more

Good spot - good for beginners new to hot pot. My go to place. Meat options are standard and delicious. Service has been great and speedy for me when I've been. Buffet options are plentiful as well. Has lots of tv's if you want to avoid conversation and watch something :) read more

I have finally tried every shabu shabu place I could find in Cattollton and one in Lewisville and one in Plano. With that, I have to say Manna Shabu is my favorite! I moved here from Hawaii and back then when I finally got the chance to get an apartment near Wailiki (wasn't expecting that to happen), I just so happened to live from across from a shabu shabu joint on S. King St., and it was amazing. The only downfall was the pay-by-the-plate. But, the broth and atmosphere can make it perfect. I'm loving the AYCE here in DFW! We had AYCE Korean BBQ on Oahu, but not shabu shabu (at least in the early 2000s to teens, that I was aware of). Needless to say, Manna has won my heart with their broth, meat selection (including a white fish) and their layout and bathrooms. read more

First of all, let's get something straight. This restaurant has the best service in this country. Every time me and my dad finished our meat, at least 3 people came over to our table to ask if we wanted anything more to eat. Secondly, the food here is absolutely fantastic and consistent. High quality beef, high quality vegetables, sides that make my day, and ice cream at the very end. I love this place so much that every time our family has something to celebrate, we all agree to come to Mana's shabu shabu. Please give this Korean restaurant a chance, I promise you will not regret it! read more
