Chinese restaurants in the United States range from steam-table lunch counters to white-tablecloth Cantonese seafood halls, and most fall somewhere in between: a laminated menu, a lunch special board, and combo plates priced a few dollars below the dinner menu. Ordering by number off the menu is normal and speeds things up, especially at takeout counters. Family-style ordering, where a table shares several dishes with rice rather than each person getting an individual entree, is standard at sit-down spots and usually cheaper per person. Many neighborhood restaurants are cash-preferred or charge a small card fee, so it is worth asking or checking the door before you order. Delivery apps cover most areas, but calling the restaurant directly is often faster and avoids the markup.
The business lists hours on 7 days of the week. Typical hours are 11:30 am–10:30 pm. As with most places, expect changes around holidays; the phone number below is the fastest way to confirm.

Irvine is in California, on the West Coast, where the climate ranges from foggy coast to hot inland valleys, wildfire season can affect air quality in late summer, and traffic is the main thing to plan around. US addresses list the street number and name, then the city, state abbreviation and ZIP code, and Irvine follows the same pattern; a suite or apartment number such as Ste 200 refers to a unit inside the building. The map link on this page shows the exact spot.

First time eating Shabu. The had a wide selection of food, and everything was delicious. We were a big group and were seated fairly quickly for a Friday. Will be coming back!

I think our server was great, but I was underwhelmed by this spot. I'm a little confused by the great reviews to be honest, maybe this place changed recently? The meat is very thinly sliced. While our servers were quick to bring more and there was a decent variety in beef (and lamb!) options, it was difficult to discern the difference in each offering. With these thin cuts, expect the meat to fall apart fairly quickly while you're cooking. The popular broth options we chose were both pretty mid. The sukiyaki broth was decent, but the spicy beef broth was a letdown. Maybe we were just unlucky with our choices? The seafood was also fairly mid in quality as well, but to be honest I did not eat much seafood this visit. However, I will say they offered a decent variety to chose from. If the price was closer to 25 dollars a person, I would understand and appreciate the lower quality but more affordable option. The atmosphere inside definitely aligns more with what should be a budget friendly experience. All this being said, if you're looking to pay 39+ dollars per person for a great hot-pot dining experience, I would personally go elsewhere.

I’ve been here before and the food is always amazing. They have a great selection, the environment is wonderful, and the cleanliness is top-notch. However, my recent visit with a party of five was frustrating for two main reasons. 1. Misleading Pricing: Online it says dinner is $34.99, but once we got there, we were charged $38.99. That is a $4 difference per person. For a group of five, that’s an extra $20 we weren’t expecting. The restaurant needs to update their website immediately to reflect the actual cost. 2. Slow Service: Normally the service is great, but this time it took the waiter a long time to check on us for meat or broth refills. When you’re paying more, you expect the service to at least stay the same, but we spent a lot of time waiting around for our next round of food. I still love the quality of the food here, but the lack of transparency on the price and the slow service this time around were disappointing. I hope they fix these issues soon!"

My family and I really enjoyed shabu here. They had a variety of meat to choose from. They had a "salad bar" with seafood, noodles, vegetables, various add-ons, and hot food. Food quality was good. They also had drinks and ice cream included - my favorite drink was the rice punch. Service was very tentative and nice. The only drawback was that their broth was just okay. Tip: For broth, get miso + spicy beef for a nice combination of flavor. I got just miso at first and it was kinda plain tasting. Best cuts of meat were #2 Wagyu Beef Belly, #9 All that Shabu, and maybe #4 Prime Chuck Eye Steak. Pick the ones with marbling - those are more tender. * #1 Prime Brisket 3/5 - Okay, tough and chewy * #2 Wagyu Beef Belly 5/5 - Good mix of fattiness and leanness, tender with a bit of chewiness. * #3 Prime Flat Iron Steak 3.5/5 - Good, kinda boring, not very tender. * #4 Prime Chuck Eye Steak 5/5 - Very tender. * #8 Filet Mignon 4/5 - Good, though very lean so boring to eat. * #9 All that Shabu 5/5 - Super tender and tasty. * #10 Angus Chuck Flap 4/5 - Very tender, but slightly gamey for some reasons.

The newly opened Korean chain hot pot restaurant offers all-you-can-eat options. On weekdays, lunch is priced at $28.99 with a choice of 7 different meats, while dinner and weekend rates are $37.99, offering 11 meat options. The restaurant features a spacious, very tidy, and clean interior, along with excellent service. There is a wide variety of side dishes, vegetables, and seafood to choose from. Both the dipping sauces and soup bases (6 types) are complimentary, and the soup base can be changed at any time. The dining experience is truly satisfying and filling. For meats, options 1, 2, and 3 are highly recommended as the most delicious, and for soup bases, numbers 4 and 5 are the top recommendations.
