    Veggie set
    Ha L.

    This place is kind of new but I am so impressed of the great quality and customer service. Price is super reasonable, quality of great, portion is huge. These are multiple meat cut options, which all are tender /(shabu shabu grades). The broths are mouthwatering, I really love the taste which I had to to-go the leftover. Highly recommended and will bring my friends and family here to try.

    Premium wagyu ayce option was quality meat. definitely better meal than the last shabu place I went to. The presentation is hard to beat and everything was freshly sliced. Lamb, beef, and pork for the win.

    My boyfriend and I wanted to try a new place and give it a shot. We saw the old menu on yelp and was surprised it was ayce instead. We ordered the premium menu. Aesthetically pleasing and peaceful environment. The server was attentive. The food quality was not there unfortunately. I'm currently experiencing food poisoning and will not be coming back

    Amazing. They have flavorful housemade broth made by the owner. The nice server who serve us told us that the owner made their broth included sauce. It was tasty and doesn't feel too greasy like many place. Clean and thoughtful. On all table has utensil and 75% alcohol wipe. Service is amazing. Our server keep checking on us and doesn't made us feel that we have to rush eventho they are closing in a few mins. He was kind and polite. I feel bad that the highest option for tip is only 20%. So I left more in cash cuz he truly deserve it. Parking is easy. ** This is not all you can eat place. It's a set menu but plenty of food. Recommended!!!

    We went here with a couple of friends to celebrate and the meal set was pretty good. We got the Wagyu set which was ~$180 and was able to feed 4 people with it. The presentation was good and the broth and meat quality were amazing as well. The place was a little short staffed on a Monday night , there was 1 other table there at the time and the server seemed to be stretched already. However I would be concerned if they had anything more than 1-2 customers at a time with how long the wait time would be. With that being said, the server we had was great and checked in pretty often to help clear the table as we were finishing off the plates of meat.

    service was outstanding and food was 8/10. homie was there for the drinks. i was able to kill the cow and volcano by myself. (im an athlete). built different like this place since they also have crawfish which i did not par take in. only complain is no wooden chopsticks and brought out the volcano and the cow at different times so the dry ice was gonzo for one but started for another. two order of qual eggs as well - probably can not fresh. but still good i love eggs soup got tum yum and the Mongolian pretty standard-- tum yum i added 6 lemons to make it more sour (wuz on the sweeter side) i honestly forgot what meat was what 4 shots in but from my recollection it was bomb af and i left happy eyuh

    Got the autumn set it's enough food for four medium-sized people. The place is clean with a ton of space. Highly recommend checking it out.

    1 extra volcano beef from the current promotion. We are lucky :)
    Maika T.

    Foods are good, and lots of foods for the set of $75 for 2 people. They are running promotion right now ( buy any set get an additional 1 volcano beef for free). Services are extraordinary, the young male is super friendly. We are very happy with his service. Their music are not so loud. Cons: I ordered the wrong broth, I wish they have the picture of the broths so I would not causing any confusion.

    Gud food, the meat slice is quality and thick. Tomyum soup base is more sweet than sour a lil bit that tbh not that bad. Server was friendly and attentive. They should do more decorations tho. Will come back!

    Beef is fresh and tender. Tonkatsu soup is wholesome and tasty with the bones cooked overtime according to the nice lady owner.
    Phuc N.

    Overall great restaurant and nice service. There's also crawfish but we were so full so it will have to be next time. The hot pot experience is excellent. We like how the soup is tasty but not too strong. The beef is very fresh and tender.

    Golden Cow

    The golden cow was sooooo worth it! Had a lot of good quality wagyu. Customer service was good as well. Friendly environment will definitely be coming back

    Hotpot

    We came to this place first time to check out the new hotpot restaurant. The food are very good with high quality meat . The present are amazing , customer service was very good too . We definitely come back

    Really great individual hot pot deal for weekday lunch. It's $14.99 for the pot and a kumquat drink…read moreso it's such a good deal, especially in comparison to Boiling Point which the prices for have gone up recently and there's always a long line there. I also love the unique flavor options here! I really enjoyed the Mongolian lamb pot, the flavor of the broth was good and the lamb wasn't too gamey. The Thai style one was like a tom yum soup base. Both pots came with endless amounts of toppings and a choice of vermicelli or rice. I love individual hot pot because you can try a little bit of a lot of different things. Service was fast and efficient and the interior is spacious and clean. I'll definitely be back when I get my next hot pot craving!

    Two strikes so I've got to write. :(…read more First incident: I had a good experience the first time I came here so I brought my husband and my sister back. Hubby ordered the salmon rice. The picture on the menu shows a piece of grilled salmon but what they brought out was totally different. Thank god, it was good anyway. Sister and I trying to order the same hot pot I ordered before and owner told us no, we cannot swap the pork belly out on the Thai hotpot. Told him I was able to do that before. He said "I'm not sure who let you do that but no, we do not allow that." I told him "you did, you let me swap the pork belly for the lean beef the previous time. I still have a picture of it on Yelp". Anyhow, he insisted No. We went ahead and ordered two beef hotpot's and the broth was salty. We had to pour some water in the hotpot to soften up the saltiness. Second incident: I came here on Thursday evening. Walked in that door at 9:10 pm and the server quickly told me: "No, we already had our last call!" Say what? the sign on the door says open til 10:00 pm and it is only 9:10 pm? If you don't want to serve late, then change your hours listed on the door and close those doors at 9:00 pm instead. Not good!!!

    Mokkoji in Cypress is hands down one of our favorite spots! We come here pretty often, and every…read moresingle time the experience is consistently amazing. The food is always fresh, high quality, and so delicious, you can really taste the care that goes into everything. Our go-to order is the pork broth with the flat iron magoji cut marinated (you HAVE to get it marinated, it adds so much flavor to the soup). It is seriously so good, and my son is absolutely obsessed with it. We also love the pickled garlic, it's so yummy and the perfect addition. The service is just as incredible. Catherine is our absolute favorite, she is so attentive, kind, and always makes sure we have everything we need without even having to ask. She truly goes above and beyond and makes the whole experience feel warm and welcoming. Everyone there is so nice, and the overall vibe is just great. It's become one of our go-to places, and we always look forward to coming back. Highly recommend if you're looking for amazing food and even better service!

    I went to this mokkoji location with my wife for Valentine's Day and had a truly awful experience…read more Service was fairly slow and the staff seemed to be unable to keep track of the orders/requests of us and the other guests at the restaurant despite the restaurant not being full and there being 4 servers present. We had to request vegetables several times and we noticed the other customers had to do the same. While we were there one customer who came alone was being very loud, swearing a lot, and generally ruining the overall atmosphere of the restaurant. This customer tried to complain loudly about his life, work, ex-girlfriend, etc. and kept bothering other customers. The staff should have said something or intervened but instead all the staff present decided to leave the main seating area and retreat to the back of the restaurant so they would not have to deal with this customer. This customer was drinking sake, acting erratically and talking to himself and other customers that did not want to interact with him. My wife and I noticed several customers leave the restaurant before finishing their food in order to avoid this uncomfortable situation. These customers came in after us and left sooner with much of their food left untouched. The lack of professionalism and inability of this staff to address this negative situation really ruined our experience and I will NEVER be going to this mokkoji location or any other again. There are many other shabu shabu options around and I would strongly suggest other people to look elsewhere and go to a restaurant where the staff are willing and able to handle a negative situation with a customer. I have worked in restaurants in the past and could not believe that not a single employee said anything to this customer for the entirety of our meal. Very disappointed to say the least.

    This is one of my favorite AYCE shabu place! They are located in the same plaza as Zion Korean…read moreMarket, which has ample parking. They changed their set up to stations with unlimited veggies, toppings, noodles, sauces, and a hot bar that has Korean dishes like spicy rice cake and dumplings, which I think is smart and efficient! The service is here is very quick! Every time I came, the wait was not too long, and we were taken care of right away. Staff is friendly and quick to take your order of broth and protein. They regularly check up on you to make sure that you have everything you need. My go-to protein is the Chuck Eye--it has great texture and not too fatty. I've also tried their Beef Belly, Angus Brisket, and Top Blade. All the proteins are great quality! The place is very spacious, where they can host large parties. Always coming back here all-season round!

    First time trying this shabu spot!…read more Honestly did not really have high expectations from just the interior/ vibes. However I was pleasantly surprised! The sukiyaki & bone broth was fire, the bone broth was so comfy and nostalgic for being Korean. The meat quality was also not bad, I don't really remember which ones we ordered but they were pretty tender. The 1.5 stars off probably come from the salad and hot bar. The veggie options and sauce bar was fine, but the hot bar was a little sad and most of the food was cold. I wish there was more variety in general, and dessert, but not a huge deal. The service was great! Fast and friendly. Would come back earlier in the day perhaps!
