Shabuya - Hot Pot Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

My sister loves this place but I don't seek out to come and eat here. I love the waiting list feature. It's always packed here so it's best to plan ahead. I thought u would love the tonkotsu broth because that's my favorite for ramen but trust me... get the spicy miso instead. The Tonkotsu doesn't have enough umami to make the whole hot pot taste good. When I first came here a few years ago, I was happy that they had Tamaki gold rice. And now? Some cheap calrose rice. -Super disappointing. This place is good to hang out with friends as the ambience is open and cool but I don't come here because I'm craving the food. read more

Came here for lunch as it was a good deal. Server was fast and took drink, broth, and meat orders. Meat came out fast and then waited for the broth. Server came often to check up on us. Lots of self-serve veggies and other options to choose from. A good selection of meat as well. Definitely worth the price for lunch! Highly recommend! read more

Shabuya - Lunch AYCE $22.99 Friday February 27, 2026 - Hot Pot Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

We signed in at the front and waited for approximately 2 minutes for a table of two to open up. Service is quick, Items are fresh, Beers come out quick, Personal pots for eating. You order the meats to the table, everything else like noodles, vegetables and sauces are all up at the buffet. We were helped by "Anna" today, who was very helpful with us as first timers. All items are fresh and lunch special was great. Wifey got an adult capri sun drink with alcohol, and she raved about it. Will definitely be back. read more

Shabuya - Hot Pot Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

A waiting system that does not reflect the actual seating process creates real frustration. Being listed as 5th in line, waiting more than 40 minutes, watching more than 10 parties get seated, and only moving from 5th to 4th suggests that something is not working correctly. Either the system is inaccurate, the process is not being updated properly, or there is human error. In any case, the experience is confusing and frustrating for customers. Would not trust it at all. read more

I took my wife out for her Bday dinner last night & she wanted to try Shabuya in Ala Moana Ctr. Our server name was (Excuse me) Qiyan & he was so friendly & professional he explained everything about ordering the meat & getting our seafood/vegetables selection off the chilled bar & even tho he was very busy with other patrons he was always attentive to our needs. The food was Excellent & our Service was even Better. We Will Be Back Because Of Our Server & of course the food! (We hope we get Qiyan as our server again) read more

Shabuya is one of my favorite hotpot places on Oahu! Love the SUKIYAKI SOUP BASE and the SAUCES omggg. Service is always fast and consistent. The wait at Ala Moana is long but worth it, I would join the waitlist. read more

Good Oahu spot for premium Shabu Shabu. $30.99 per person gets you unlimited portions of everything! There is a solid meat selection, comprised of various beef cuts, as well as some pork and chicken. I personally went with different types of beef and it was great. It's so thin-sliced, that you throw it into your boiling broth and it's ready for you within a minute. You could tell by the taste that the meat was high quality. Most beef cuts were melting in my mouth, especially when dipped in the wild, elaborate sauce combination that I created at the sauce station. To accompany the meat that's being brought to your table, there is a huge self-serve bar that offers a rich variety of veggies and a solid selection of raw seafood with the likes of blue crab, shrimp, baby octopus, mussels and swai fish. I personally loaded up on bok choy -- a huge a fan of its texture and taste once boiled. The sauce station consists of around 8 kinds of dipping sauces, different in taste and its thickness. A few dudes in front of me operated like pros, so I got an advice for some good sauce combinations and it was great! After I fully set myself up at the table with all the veggies,the meats and those dipping sauces, everything else was a breeze. The broths by the way, were outstanding and rich in flavor. My wife went with the original and I tried the spicy miso. Overall, a very good experience. The food was very tasty, the place was modern and clean and the customer service from our waitress was phenomenal. I will definitely take note and will come back here when I'm in Oahu again! read more

This was my first time here and it was great. The workers are very accommodating and helpful. We were seated at a wobbly table so the server helped us move. 8 meats are allowed per round so that was helpful. The server explained appetizers, drinks and rice would all be served through him and the seafood, noodles and veggies are a help yourself buffet spread. The 90 min time allowance was perfect for my group of 3 and everyone was really happy with their choices. Gratuity is added for groups of 6 or more and I would definitely return! read more

Tonight was disappointing. To start, the server rushed our order for broth and meat, and said that we'd get waters shortly and another would come to take drink orders, which never happened. One of the burners wasn't working at our table, but to their credit they provided a portable burner shortly after I told them. We received our rounds of meat in decent time, but towards the end we had to wait quite a while with empty trays for the server to take another meat order. This was also my mother's birthday, which I let the server know in the beginning. Later, he did bring it up along with the bill to discreetly ask for her name, but to my surprise, after paying the bill and finishing up, no birthday cheer. To rub salt in the wound, they cheered for another table's birthday while our table was getting cleared out by another worker. Can't even remember their name because the nametags have some hashtag and phrase. Good job guys, ruined my parent's birthday dinner. Thanks! read more

I come to Shabuya at least once a week because it never disappoints. The ingredients are always fresh, the meat quality is great, and even though the place is always busy, it's spacious enough that it doesn't feel overwhelming. My favorite parts are the little touches -- the chewy Korean-style corn, the pumpkin, and especially the way you can finish your meal with a bubbling pot of kimchi, glass noodles, and half a pack of ramen. It's absolute comfort food and tastes amazing every single time. The only downside? You definitely leave with the smell of hotpot on your clothes But honestly, it's worth it. Highly recommend if you love shabu shabu and want a satisfying, consistent meal every time! read more

Good spot for all you can eat hot pot. This location is extremely busy. We had a very large group and waited 45 mins in addition to our expected seating time. Servers are great and they were very friendly and fast when bringing meats. They have a bar setup to get your veggies, sauces, and other ingredients for your hot pot. Each person gets their own pot and soup base. I recommend for smaller groups. read more

Shabuya is such a great AYCE hot pot spot for a reasonable price! Just keep in mind that the price varies depending on whether you go for lunch or dinner and on weekends. When you're first seated, you get to choose your broth, order any appetizers, and Mae your first selections of meat. My go-to is the original broth and wagyu. After that, you can visit the self-serve areas which include seafood, noodles, veggies, kimchee, a sauce bar, and more. This is always one of my favorite places to visit whenever I'm home in Hawaii. This time around we had such a great server. She cleared our finished plates quickly so the table never felt too crowded, and my water was always refilled. Everything in the self-serve area was clean, organized, and well stocked while we were there. It made the whole experience really enjoyable. Highly recommend if you love AYCE and hot pot! read more

This is definitely worth a 4.5/5. We recommend getting on the wait, right here on Yelp before arriving! It'll definitely be busy but once you're in the speed of service is amazing! The vibes range from casual to a little dressy depending on the occasion you're celebrating. The food was so good and you get appetizers included in all you can eat. The portions you get are great and would recommend. The price is good for all that you get and emphasis and what you CAN eat! read more

Shabuya absolutely blew us away. It's hands-down the best hot pot experience we've ever had. Every single ingredient--from the vegetables to the noodles to the dipping sauces--was incredibly fresh, but the real standout was the meat quality. The cuts were beautifully marbled, tender, and full of flavor, making every bite rich and satisfying. We also loved the setup of the booth. It felt comfortable, spacious, and perfect for settling in and enjoying a long, delicious meal. The broth options were fantastic, and everything cooked up beautifully. You can tell they take real pride in the ingredients they serve. We left full, happy, and already talking about when we can come back. Service was very good. Our waitress was very attentive. There is a time limit. read more

During the stormy week, me and my partner wanted to get something hearty and hot. Decided Shabuya is a great place for AYCE for lunch! Can you go wrong for $22 pp for lunch AYCE ?! Meat selection is limited but satisfies the crave for meat. Veggie Station is abundant and staff refills quick when it runs low. Seafood station is always stocked, did not see any option empty for my duration of the meal. Sauce Bar is also good compared to other Hotpot places, love their Sesame Sauce, I use bowls worth every time I go. Service is super standard, which is not a bad thing. you can always expect it to be casual, no more and no less haha, can't expect much when they're turning the tables like crazy, speed is efficiency for them. Also had 1 of each of their apps which is good, but they premake it so it comes out quicker, but also lowers quality of dish, can't have both at an AYCE. Can't really complain about anything really. Be aware, they usually had a have list 90% of the day, so join waitlist early on yelp and check in when you're near top 5. Great selections (for lunch) Speedy service Good flavors Spacious Interior read more

This review is for the service. The food was great, fresh and lots of seafood to choose from. I arrived half an hour before the dinner rush, which was nice. We got seated right away. The gentleman assigned to our table didn't seem too enthused so we made our order and never asked for anything more. He never came around to refill the broth, water, nor asked if we were doing ok. We felt like he was rushing us to leave. The restaurant wasn't full so it's not because people were waiting on our table. I used my debit card to pay for the bill on the handheld machine. It was defaulted to 20% tip. I was like seriously? I decided to be nice and do my part and give him the 20% tip. Lawd knows he really didn't deserve it with us. read more

I enjoyed lunch with my daughter and family today on a rainy Monday afternoon. It's good that they participate in the Yelp waitlist feature, because it seemed that everyone had the same idea. My daughter had signed up on the wait list and when we arrived, there were about 15 people waiting outside and several more inside, out of the drizzling rain. We checked in and were seated within about 5 minutes of getting there. They had a high chair for my 16 month old granddaughter, and we got started in on the feast. The ambiance is pretty lively, with dance music pumping thru their speakers. The AYCE lunch is currently $22.99 and is a bargain, even at the slightly higher price. The menu offerings are a trimmed down version of the dinner menu, without some of the more "premium" meats, but all the meats are still of high quality. Since you cook your own shabushabu at the table, you can pick any, or all of the ingredients at the "buffet" line to add, while the server brings the meats to the table. It's a huge variety of veggies, seafood (white shrimp, clams, swai fish pieces, mussels), noodles and other goodies. They limit you to 8 plates of meats at a time, but since it's AYCE, you can continue to order as soon as you finish. The only issue we had was that our server took a long while to check back with us. We had to wait to reorder, and to even get refills of water. I don't know if, or what the time limit is (I think 2 hours?), but it could become an issue on busy days like today if there's a lag in getting served. In any case, the food is good quality, and with the sauces they offer, you can customize the taste just to your liking. We all left with full bellies and I must apologize for the mess left by my granddaughter. read more

I've been here several times. Service is always quick. Wait time is fair. You sign in on a tablet outside. Wide selection of veggies, seafood, meat, noodles, etc for your soup. Paid about $60+ for 2 people. You'll walk out smelling like the restaurant, so make sure you're going straight home after. read more

We went on a weekday so it wasn't as busy -n- we were seated almost right away. We haven't been here in awhile, but everything was still the same - good! Friendly staff that constantly checked on us. The only thing I hate about coming to this location is the sticky, dirty floors. The bathroom was also dirty. After going to the Kapolei location we'll probably go there instead of Ala Moana from now on. read more

Great all you can eat hot pot option in Ala Moana shopping center! Depending on the time you go there might be a wait but you can also join the waitlist on yelp depending on party size. My boyfriend and I went for an early dinner on a weeknight and got seated right away! Service was okay, our server seemed like he had a big section so can't be helped. He always made sure we had meats available but sometimes it took a bit to get water... They have a self serve line for veggies, noodles, seafood, and a make your own sauce area. All the meats you order at the table. There are also several appetizers that are also included with the all you can eat that you can order and is made in the kitchen. Overall great option at the mall to eat at if you're hungry enough! read more

We finally had a chance to eat here. It's always busy and whenever we walk by there is people waiting. We had an early dinner around 3:30-4. Our wait time was 40 minutes. That day they were shorthanded with only 3 servers. Anyway once seated our server was very prompt and attentive. We selected our meats and then proceeded to the buffet area and selected all our veggies,seafood and sauces to enhance our hotpot meal. We were not disappointed. The broths were very tasty and the wide selection of veggies was plentiful. Our server checked on us several times throughout our meal. Ambiance is simple. I definitely look forward to returning. read more

Finally made it to Shabuya after they've been open for yeeears. The wait is INSANE. Do not recommend you go there without a plan. However, the longer you wait, the hungrier you get? The selection at this AYCE is pretty good, actually. The vegetables were fresh, there was a good selection of seafood, although I didn't have any and just went straight for the pork and beef. Our server was very attentive and refilled the meats & broth very quickly. Overall, I would go back, just be prepared to wait a loooooong time for a table. read more

I love coming to Shabuya when I'm in Hawaii! It's AYCE and has a great buffet bar. The servers are always so kind and really helpful when you have questions.

Food was good. But horrible service. We came in after landing and needed to eat at 2pm. When we checked in we had a toddler. The hostess asked to measure the height of the toddler on the wall. I unclipped him from our stroller and did. She wasnt paying attention and was checking someone else in. Rude. We then got seated. We asked for a set up for our toddler. Didnt get one. We went to get the sides and condiments for our food. There were no dipping bowls washed. I waited and waited and asked for it. Then i got it. We eventually got to eat and the food was fine. The meat came quick. When it came time to check out, we were left hanging with bill in hand. We placed cash on the table and left. On the way out, the waitress asked if we were ready to pay as she was too busy socializing. Its past the average lunch time on a week day. How is this place so poorly managed? Id hate to imagine this place when its busy. read more

Terrible! They had old slimy rotten shrimp out and it gave me diarrhea same night after lunch. What a waste of money. Gross will never go back. Couple of my girlfriends just mentioned a holiday lunch and wanted to go and I just told them not to go there. Unacceptable for them to not have quality control. Not to mention they only came back only twice to bring us more shabu meat, which is the only edible thing. Do not recommend, stay away! Also want to say they would not save a space for my sister in law who was on the way there. Not a good company. read more

I think we came on a bad day or maybe just the holiday rush but our overall experience wasn't that good. 2-stars only because I saw how hard the front desk was working and that our waiter was friendly. Didn't realize that the seating time that Yelp gives you isn't the time for you to check-in - the seating time I was given was between 6:51pm and 7:11pm, but when I arrived at the mall at 6:48, I had gotten a text saying that I was taken off the waitlist after waiting an hour. Thankfully the front desk workers were gracious enough to help me out and got us seated quick rather than jumping in the back of the list. While the tables are in a fixed position, the seats are not and the table next to us kept pushing our chairs to give themselves more room. The karaage appetizers were small and had more skin than actual meat. Water refills from our waiter were few and broth refills (if those are even a thing) were nonexistent. I got the capri soju and I definitely do not recommend anyone getting it blended. All I had gotten was a bag full of blended ice and extremely watered down soju - it was to the point where I thought I was just drinking water. What I paid did not reflect what I received. On another note, it would be cool/helpful for first timers if there was a displayed recommended cook time for the meat and the noodles to help people avoid undercooking/overcooking their food and getting any sort of illness. read more

Shabuya is one of the best values for an AYCE meal in town. At $22.99 for lunch, you get access to five types of meat, four types of appetizers, as well as an array of fresh vegetables, noodles, and seafood for up to 1.5 hours. (There are more meat options at dinner for a higher price.) And the best part is that you won't feel guilty even if you don't get your money's worth! For us, the standouts were the soy glazed chicken karaage, the beef blade meat, and the beef toro. The weakest parts of the dining experience are their limited selection of broths and their limited sauce station. I get that Shabu Shabu is meant to be minimal (i.e. meat and veg simmered in light broth), but I find that the available options I've tried (original, miso, sukiyaki) at Shabuya are fairly inconspicuous, which is noticeable when compared to something like hotpot. Nevertheless, the food is still delicious and perfect for a rainy day. You should expect a wait if you can't arrive when the restaurant opens, but do make use of the Yelp waitlist so that you don't have to stand around in front of the restaurant. Since the restaurant is conveniently located in Ala Moana, there is ample free parking and plenty of things to do before or after your meal. read more

I highly recommend getting on the waitlist early. The good thing about this location is that there's plenty to do in the mall if you have a bit of a wait! With hot pot, you pick your base broth and then the servers bring your meat selections to the table. For vegetables and seafood and other add-ins, you pick them out yourself buffet-style. This was my first hot pot experience, and I'd be willing to come back and do it again! read more

Six of us came for an early dinner to celebrate our sweetie's performance. First time for 4 of us. We are creatures of habit. I ordered the spicy miso but it was pretty mild. The table I sat on had 4 females but even though it's all you can eat the hostess kept saying no reorders of meat which was a waste to me for $30+ per person. Sweetie only took two dried ramen and nothing else. It didn't have pink kamaboko or anything that appealed to her. The sauces were okay. It's not like the other hot pot places we frequent where items are on individual plates and sealed with plastic wrap. This one was more like a salad bar. At our favorite place the soft beverage is included and at another 2 places they have comp dessert like soft serve or shave ice, not here. First they put 6 of us in a small booth but fortunately our table server caught that right away and moved us to 2 tables so we could each have our own broth instead of sharing. read more

Service was great. 13 of us went today. Problem is when we got the bill. Paper receipt in the restaurant was $502. Told our server to split the bill and somehow we got charged $30 more. Numbers do not add up on the receipt and when I called to question... They said they can't do anything about it. Do NOT GO HERE. THEY WILL OVERCHARGE AND DENY. read more

My mom and I came here for a late mother's day lunch. We arrived at around 10am and I signed up on their waitlist. It said I was the 2nd party in line and it would text me when they're ready for me. They open at 10:30am and still no text so as we were approaching the door, there was at least 5 parties that had already walked in so I was so confused. I walked inside and while the guy was checking me in, I asked about the waitlist thing and how come I was never notified and he was like "oh don't worry about it, you're in" and I'm wondering if the waitlist thing doesn't apply when they first open?! This is the main reason for the 4 stars. Everything is AYCE (all you can eat). Lunch price is $22.99 and dinner I think is $32.99. I asked for a booth and they at least gave me that lol, so we got seated and our server came by to take our orders for appetizers and meats. We ordered a gyoza and an order of pork belly because I only really like pork belly for hot pot. Then we got up to get our seafood and veggies and sauces. I like to get shrimp, fish fillet, fishcake, napa cabbage, raddish, corn, mushrooms, wood ear mushrooms/fungus, and whatever random things they have that day. I was hoping they would have enoki mushrooms but not that day :( I decided not to get any noodles since that usually fills me up faster. I can never remember which sauces to mix together.... I just grabbed some grated garlic with chili oil and another one with grated radish with ponzu? The garlic chili oil was SPICY but tasted so good with the pork belly! I used the ponzu for the veggies. Ended up getting 3 orders of pork belly... and they never brought the gyoza I ordered... ah oh well. Food is always so good here. I can't wait to go back! :) read more

I've never been to a hotpot restaurant before. I would normally make my I own. My friend wanted to take me to Shabuya. We went when they opened. The restaurant was very clean and everyone was welcoming. I was very impressed with the salad and topp bar. They even had my favorite shrimp and lobster balls. The meats looked and tasted amazing. Being my first time, I tried their house broth. It was a bit lack-lustered. However, I did enjoy the spicy miso broth on my second trip there. read more
