Service was fabulous. Food was delicious
Haven’t been back in over two years and sadly, it’s terrible from food to service. Don’t waste your money and go somewhere else. The quality of meat is more fat than meat. The second star for the young man who saw us wait for our food. He looked frustrated that his coworker did not bring out all our orders and didn’t give us spoons. Sorry but this place will never see my face nor thoseOf my family again.
This is more of a unique review for me compared to the rest of my reviews. That being when we were looking for Shabu Shabu, we wanted to find a spot that served halal meat options.#1 The servers were second to none. The person that stood out the most was Emerald. Always had a great attitude, work ethic, and patient with my very newb of a friend. She was on it. Give her a raise now before it's too late!#2 The food was great. We went with the AYCE Special #2 since that's where most of the halal meats were. The price is not unreasonable. Special #1 is more for those that are on a budget. Most restaraunts are similarly priced.#3 complimentary ice cream! You can't say no to that. For me, that's the best part of the meal. Soaking in all that meaty flavor and then washing the excessiveness with some ice cream.Highly recommend this place, these are my item recommendations:Spicy Miso base (Beef stock)Ponzu & spicy Goma sauce (Contains Mirin)Halal Ribeye, Halal Lamb, Halal chicken,Kobe beef, salmon sushi, squash and mushrooms. Finished off with the ice cream of the day.
Great pricepoint for an AYCE shabu and select sushi rolls. Vegetables are provided, so the meal didn’t feel heavy at all. Beef and pork belly were very tender, and the spicy crunchy roll was probably the best sushi roll they had to offer with the AYCE deal
recently went here and the service is absolutely trash. I ordered one order and didn't get it till the end of our meal. we had to ask multiple times to check the order whilst people before us were getting their orders. no apology either. the food is ok for what u order but i recommend going to another shabu place.
Fantastic halal hotpot in Irvine. You don't even have to ask, they proudly put on their menu 'halal chicken' 'halal ribeye' 'halal lamb' And tell them beforehand you are ordering halal and they will tell you which broths are veg and which sauces are alcohol-free. We ordered the lamb and ribeye. I preferred the ribeye, it felt lighter to eat.The staff is so kind and informative. It's a smallish spot so there may be a wait if your party is big. We went on a Saturday afternoon and were seated right away at the lower bar level. Kid friendly, my kids had no problem serving themselves from their own hotpot. We will be back!
I ordered mostly sushi as I got full with the meat very fast. well priced for all you can eat. didn't care for the tempura offerings - too oily
Amazing halal food - unique, as this is the only place I’ve seen where you can get halal hotpot. The customer service is wonderful and they go above and beyond to take care of you. We called an hour after they closed because we needed a receipt and the person on the phone was SO helpful. Not only did he take the time to find the receipt we needed but also waited for us to come and pick it up before leaving. And SO polite throughout even though it was an inconvenience for them. Already was a fan before but will definitely support them even more now
I highly recommend to try this place out if you can wait a while because the line and wait time will be long especially when it's on more crowded days like Friday or the weekend. The servers are super nice and the service is great. Food is delicious. It's All you can eat hotpot, with your choice of meat like beef or pork, etc. Sides are absolutely great too and include sushi, tempura, chicken wings, etc. And they give you a little ice cream at the end for dessert too??
Decent price, cozy place and great selection for the all you can eat. Tasty and get better in a cold day like today
