Shabu Time

Terri Paik 3 months ago

Reasonably priced and everything tasted good. We were party of five and we ordered large Kobe beef, large pork, large lamb, large seafood (which includes veggie bowls) and the server said it would be enough. Then I added wagyu flat iron later and the server was right - the fifth veggie bowl was more than we needed. I should have just gotten the Wagyu plate à la carte. Got tom yum and miso and I liked that the broth isn’t as spicy and strong as Chinese hot pot. Ambiance isn’t that fancy but we had a great time.

Shabutime was such a great experience and easily one of the best Japanese hot pot spots I’ve been to so far. This was my second time ever doing hot pot and my first time trying a Japanese-style hot pot, and it completely changed my perspective. Everything felt very organized and easy to follow, which made the whole experience way more enjoyable. We ordered the beef toro belly and the seafood combo, which came with a full spread of vegetables. For broths, we went with the yukisaki and spicy Sichuan, and both were really well balanced and flavorful without being overwhelming. We also added vermicelli and udon noodles, which soaked up the broth perfectly. What stood out to me was how satisfying the meal actually was. I’ve done hot pot before and left feeling like I didn’t really eat enough or get the full experience, but that was not the case here. Everything felt complete and well thought out. They also have a solid selection of sauces and add-ons, which really let you customize each bite. Overall, super impressed with the quality, the setup, and how smooth the whole experience was. Definitely a spot I’ll be coming back to.

Great shabu experience with family I’m from Colorado Springs, and my family brought me here for shabu. I was truly impressed by the quality of the food. The broth was light, clean, and very flavorful, not overpowering at all. You can really taste the natural sweetness from the slow-simmered bones. I especially loved the bun rieu broth and the tom yum broth. The meat quality was excellent and very fresh. The dipping sauces were unique and incredibly appetizing, making the whole meal even more enjoyable. The staff were friendly, attentive, and very welcoming. Overall, it was a perfect and joyful meal with my family. Highly recommend!

My buddy cheeto told me to try this place out. I’m currently here on a Thursday night and the wait is about 20 minutes. Parking can be hard to find but after doing a full round I was about to get one across the street. It’s a cute little spot that can feel crowded with big parties but frees up fast. The quality of the meat is really good, with the various sides of veggies hit the spot. Too bad I missed the seasonal broth, I really wanted to try the bun bo hue, maybe if it comes bac

The restaurant has a bustling and energetic vibe, but the noise level can be high due to limited sound barriers. Friendly and attentive staff made for a positive experience. The spicy miso broth stood out as a highlight, while the tonkatsu broth was a bit underwhelming without added spice. The entrees and appetizers were enjoyable, particularly the spicy dumplings and garlic edamame. Long wait times and limited parking could make this spot tricky during peak hours, so calling ahead to the waitlist is highly recommended. A great spot for flavorful food and lively energy, especially for small groups—just come prepared for a wait and parking challenges.
