    Love the variety of veggies, and the seafood in the salad and sauce bar. I also like that there is only a few pieces on each tray. So I can try different meats. Service as great. Ambiance was really good. There were a few birthday parties and they sang the song.

    Came here with my cousin's family and my kids because we were craving hot pot. This was my first time here. We got there a bit before 5, and got seated right away for a party of 7. Broth - you get to choose your own broth for your individual pot. When they do refill, they also refill with broth instead of hot water which is nice. I got the house broth and it was flavorful. Self-serve bar - the variety of items at the self-serve bar was ok. I have been to places where there were definitely more variety and better stocked. Meats - the meat was standard, and there was a good variety Service - we had to flag down our server multiple times for different reasons. Seems like she was pretty busy with the tables she had to cover, and couldn't check in on us that often. Overall, this is a decent hot pot place in the area. If I had the time, I would drive further for better hot pot places.

    Been here a couple of times now and we love it. Located at the Veranda so parking can be packed specially on weekends. $29 all you can eat. Restaurant is pretty big,awesome for a big group. Love that the stove are individual rather than other hot pot that are shared within the group,due to my seafood allergies I don't get to enjoy hotpo. Different types of broth are available for each individual. Appetizers,all types of noodles,veggies and sauces. Lets not forget the meat that are also unlimited. We love the prime blade meat and beef toro. Some days tho I feel a little rushed. But overall great food and good service.

    First time but was not disappointed Upon entering the place was fairly more spacious than anticipated, lots of seating and plenty of space Definitely a busy spot though I will say, in a pretty busy area to be fair So had zero experience with this type of place, the staff was very friendly and helpful in explaining how it works. Very attentive and came back countless times to ask if everything is good and if we wanted to order more of anything else. It is all you can eat on everything For the food honestly it's really good as for how it's prepared entirely up to you, they have a huge bar you go up to and grab whatever else you'd like to throw in your broth like green onion,garlic,noodles and so much more. Honestly it would be impossible try it all on the first trip, so definitely gonna have to go again to try different combinations. The appetizers are not many but they're not really the star of the show although they're all so very good so highly recommend trying at least one of each. I can definitely see there being a learning curve to this type of food because if you're not careful you can overcook whatever you put in your broth, I know I did so there is a little bit of juggling or paying attention at least. So don't feel discouraged You do have control over the heat of the hot plate in front of you so you can turn it up or down at any point. I believe you also have a 90 min limit which is pretty standard for all you can eat places so no surprises there. All in all very good and unique food experience Would recommend to try at least once! Especially on a cold day

    Great food, service and music.  Mamas enjoying a lychee mango cocktail!

    Great food, service and music! We come here every couple of months because my family loves their soup. Everyone gets spicy miso and I get sukiyaki

    Even if it looks crowded, go in! They sat us immediately. Server wasn't Camille (she was off, I asked) but she was nice and attentive. AYCE hotpot for $29.99/pp is well worth it. Food is great- thinly sliced beef and pork to cook in broth to your liking. They also have a cold bar for your noodles, vegetables and seafood. The sauce station elevates the soup/meat to over a 10. I like the Asian chili and soy sauce to dip my meat it. Baby Bear likes the yuzu. The apps are great too the soy glazed chicken and gyoza are always great! Only suggestion would be to bring back the designated metal tongs to place your raw meat in the broth. The plastic forks they offer, melt after some time. Using the supplied chopsticks on raw and cooked meat seems a little unsafe - for me. But regardless- Definitely will be back.

    We were surprised that we didn't have to wait long to be seated at this AYCE restaurant. Maybe it was perfect timing -- we arrived around 6:15 p.m. on a Saturday night -- or maybe it's just easier to get a table for two. There's a 90-minute dining limit, so we ordered right away. They offer five types of broth; we went with the Original House and Tonkotsu. For appetizers, we had Gyoza, Chicken Karaage, and Soy Glazed Chicken Karaage -- all delicious, and perfect for us since we're not into spicy food, but if you want spicy, they have that on the menu too. There are seven types of meat, and yes, we tried them all! Each one was fresh and flavorful -- definitely premium quality. The variety of sides, vegetables, and seafood was impressive, making it easy to build the perfect hot pot combination. The restaurant can get a bit loud, so it's not the best place for quiet conversation, but it's lively. Parking at The Veranda can also be tricky during busy hours, so plan a little extra time for that. By the end of the meal, we were so full and satisfied. Great service, good value for $29.99 excluding drinks, and overall a great dining experience. We'll definitely be back!

    My husband and I really enjoy dining at this restaurant. We often come here to celebrate family birthdays or just to hang out with friends. The prices are quite reasonable, there's plenty of seating, and the menu offers a good variety of food options. Every time I come, I always forget to bring my Thai-style suki dipping sauce! The staff can be hit or miss--sometimes very nice and attentive, and other times a bit indifferent--but we still keep coming back even though we live quite far away. The food might not be the absolute best we've ever had, but it's definitely worth the price. Parking can be a bit tough on weekends and holidays, but overall it's a good experience. Today our server, Kali G, was especially wonderful--very friendly and attentive. She kept checking in to see if we wanted more meat or appetizers. Her great service really made our visit more enjoyable.

    Came in with my boyfriend and another friend on a Saturday evening. We joined the waitlist after checking in with the host and were told it would be a 20-40 min wait, which was accurate. It's located in a plaza where there's plenty of other things to look, shop, or sit at, so time flew by. I checked their website and it looks like you can join the waitlist there, but not on yelp. Service was quick and we were seated near the door, but weren't hit by any drafts when the door was opened. We got our drink orders, apps, and meats. By the time we got up to pick our toppings from the bar (an assortment of veggies, eggs, noodles, seafood, etc) the meat was delivered. Thinly sliced in groups of four per plate. We all ordered the spicy miso broth, which wasn't too spicy. There's additional sauces you can get from the bar if you want more spice. Our waitress was very helpful and even offered rice, which I didn't know was an option. Music was playing a bit loud, but not excessively so, temperature was adjustable for your broth at your table, and each person had their own pot. Bathrooms were also clean, and there's two sides of the bar so it's not crowded. We also witnessed workers restocking the bar, and others going around regularly adding broth to guests' pots. Restaurant was also roomy. For $30 on a weekend? It's a solid deal. Maybe come by when not super busy, or plan ahead.

    I saw this place had a really good rating and decided to give it a try! They offer a wide selection of seafood, hot pot items, veggies, and sauces at the cold bar. You can choose four kinds of meat per round. I went with the Sukiyaki broth, soy-glazed chicken karaage, and four meats to start with, and they were delicious! I have seen a lot of hype about the karage, but it was just ok, I would rather have more meat instead. The meat quality was excellent, thinly sliced, tender, even if you overcook a bit. I especially liked their beef toro, pork belly, and pork shoulder! Highly recommended!

    My family and I tried Shabuya last week. We had a great experience trying something "new" to us. I've walked by Shabuya several times while at the Veranda but never tried it before. This is an all you can eat Shabu Shabu restaurant. You start off by selecting your choice of broths. Then choose your appetizer and meats that will go into your individual broth. You can pick other items from the bar such as seafood, noodles and veggies and let it cook. When you run out of meat you can reorder from your waiter. Our dirty dishes were picked up promptly and the bar area was refilled with fresh ingredients while we were there. It is a fun experience and value if you enjoy the cuisine. Overall, great service, good selection of protein and well stocked food bar. I also enjoyed the adult capri sun (soju).

    Shirley H.

    The meat quality is great, but the options at the self-serve bar are lower quality compared to other ayce hot pot spots. The server also gave us the check before we hit the time limit.

    Miso broth with noodles and dumplings
    Kat S.

    A fun experience and place to eat. Our kids loved the ramen, the choice of meats is great! Service was quick - a bit slow with appetizers but when we mentioned this to the waitress she got them out quickly. It's a bit loud inside so not super great for conversations, but the music was good!

    Miso broth. Everything in the bowl is from their buffet area (except the pork belly), udon, snow mushroom, bok choy, and green onion.

    Ask the Community - Shabuya

    Does it come with fries and other snacks with the ayce options?

    No come with appetizer but no fries

    I've been for lunch, I can see the dinner menu online, more meats. What's different on the food bar with dinner. (I'm a seafood fan)?

    Typically our dinner menus for Shabuya will offer more selection of meats, and sometimes more diverse options for the salad bar selection, varying in locations. We don't have a specific list of the salad bar selection as they may change out… Read more

    When does lunch time start and how many rounds of meat can I order as well as appetizers? Someone told me only 4 rounds but is this correct?

    You can order up to 4 meats per round but there are no limit on how many rounds. Just gotta be out by 90 mins mark

    Is there any way to reserve seats ahead of time on a certain day at a possible certain time?

    Yes. Just call them. I was able to reserve a table for my family by calling them.

    How much each person?

    Lunch $20 Dinner $30 .... Dinner menu includes ribeye

    My husband is very sensitive to MSG. can he dine at your restaurant?

    Probably not… because we don’t remember if any of the broth was free of MSG… and all the broth were prepared. I would call them to make sure they can accommodate that request. Then again, the broth won’t be the same if it’s altered…

    Are the meats marinated?

    Nope

    Does Shabuya take reservations?

    No, Shabuya does not take reservations.

    Since when did I have to be there for them to tell me how long the wait is? That's stupid. I don't want to drive all the way out there just for it to be a 2 hour wait.

    Larger parties , they should know that it's going to be a wait ... the staff they turn those tables over quickly ... but , they cannot accurately tell you how long the wait is to avoid confrontation that's why they don't give you an exact time .

    Are there vegetarian options for broth and toppings?

    Their broths are vegetable based & they do have a variety of fresh vegetable toppings. My SIL is a GF vegan & this is her new favorite spot.

    Do you serving for 1 person thank you?

    Yes, you get your own hot pot with your own broth. Even if you dine with another person, they will have their own broth.

    If coming for a birthday celebration; are we allowed to bring in our own cakes?

    Yes, I seen someone bring one when I went

    So my mom has celiac disease and can only eat gluten free options food, does anyone know if Shabuya has that option?

    Some of the broth may be gluten intolerant, but I'm sure you can ask the servers to get one that is appropriate for your mother. They're very nice and attentive. The food is all uncooked, so it's easy to pick and choose what she can eat from the… Read more

    Do you allow pets?

    They have an outside patio area for dinning that is pet friendly

    Is this place vegetarian friendly?

    There are things that a vegetarian could eat. Vegetables, tofu, noodles, rice, etc...However, there isn't the largest of selections. I would suggest checking the pictures on Yelp of what's offered, and consider whether what they have to offer is… Read more

    Is there still outdoor seating these days?

    Just went by there today, they took down their outdoor seating

    What is the favorite of the broths? Same question for the meats, and favorites among the side dishes/add-ins from salad bar.

    Broths: i personally love the spicy miso but i tried some of my friends Tonkotsu so if ur looking more creamy (ish) i would pick that. You could also just add spices to that one… Read more

    Are seafood available during lunch time?

    Yes , they are ! More so , for dinner ! CHEERS !!!

    Are customers allowed to purchase meats from the restaurant to cook at home?

    No clue . Why would you want to ? Purchase those meats at the store , freeze them ... have your butcher at your favorite supermarket slice thin and you are good to go !

    Do you take reservations?

    No they don't take reservations. You put your name on a list and they will text you when it's time.

I learned they offer two versions: a "savory dry stir fry" and a "spicy dry stir fry". Both looked fairly spicy, but the staff explained that the savory one is milder and has a slightly sweeter flavor. I decided to go with that. It turned out to be delicious. The sauce was perfectly balanced, savory without being too sweet, with a subtle peanut flavor. It was still spicy in my opinion, especially since there was a noticeable dollop of chili oil on top, but it paired really well with steamed rice and I love spicy food. Unfortunately, the rice itself was not great. The top layer was hard and crunchy, like the overcooked bits you sometimes get at the bottom of a rice cooker. Aside from that, the meal was very satisfying. I also really enjoy their sauce bar, where you can mix your own condiments to complement the dish. Next time, I would definitely like to try the "spicy dry stir fry" version.

Now I will admit I have only tried the incredible Kalbijjim with short rib and oxtail but this dish alone is worth every dollar.

We ordered around 8 different beef, chicken, and shrimp items, but the sides were hit or miss. The dwenjang soup was bland, japchae was also pretty tasteless, and the hotteok was tough. We also ordered edamame and never got it. Service was where things really fell short. It was hard to get a server's attention, and we had to keep waving. I asked for an extra bowl and it took a while. There was only one tong at first, so we had to ask for another. Same with getting a clean plate. To be fair, they did change the grill without us asking, but overall it felt like we had to keep asking for everything. We even mentioned it was our first time dining at the restaurant and asked for some guidance, but didn't really get any. The whole experience ended up feeling a bit exhausting instead of enjoyable. That said, for the price, the BBQ itself is decent and you get 2 hours to eat. I would come back mainly for the $21.95 lunch price, but not for the overall experience.
