It is a great place for a casual conversation with friends and family.Service is a bit curt, but it adds to the character of the entire place.Drinks list (beer and sake) is short but excellent, which means you can’t go wrong.
We’ve been here multiple times and we love it every single time. I have yet to find an all you can eat hot pot place with better quality meat. Their meats are fresh and tender and perfectly portioned. Like I mentioned it’s all you can eat so there’s no limit on how much you can eat. There is a 90-minute time limit, however we have not run into any issues with time. I would recommend going on a weekday night. It’s a small restaurant so it’s packed on weekends. They do have a yelp waitlist that you can join, and you can also make your reservations through yelp as well. There is a parking garage nearby but they have odd hours so I would recommend planning on street parking. The downside of restaurant is that they don’t have a sauce bar. They only offer one sauce that comes out pre-made. Another downside is that you can’t order specific seafood items by itself. They do offer a seafood platter which is good if you’re with a group but not for smaller parties. They have a delicious dessert that they serve at the end. It’s vanilla ice cream topped with brown sugar powder. It’s super light and refreshing at the end of the meal. For anyone who has not yet visited this spot, I highly recommend them!
The best quality meat you will find anywhere in the Bay. Started going to this location 11 years ago, and we keep coming back!
All you can eat hot pot!!!
One of the better AYCE shabu joints in the area. Fresh ingredients, super savory soups, awesome service. I recommend getting the garlic miso and tonkotsu broth, and the JIn Pot Tsumire was BOOOMB! Def coming back!
Super high quality meat. Great unique broths. Ice cream and appetizers are included. They have an all you can drink option. 31 vs 41 not bad at all. Definitely worth trying. I'd say top tier for shabu in SF.
Service is not existent, with half tables empty nobody wants to even talk to customers.
Wow! My favorite shabu house hand's down. And it's not just because they have cat-themed decorations everywhere (including framed photos of cats along the wall and cats all along the menu). The place is so quirky and cool. There's not a lot of space, so I heard there's usually a wait. But we went on a Wednesday at 5:30, and it was pretty easy to get a table.It's all-you-can-eat, and if you like alcohol, you might as well go with the premium. You can have two broths so we got the umami sea kelp and the spicy garlic miso. The umami sea kelp was a bit bland - the spicy garlic miso was perfect. The orders were fulfilled quickly, and I loved how easy they make it.I would definitely come back and will recommend to all my friends when they ask for the best hot pot place in the city.
Tasty food at reasonable prices. The restaurant itself is a bit loud.
They have a semi enclosed outdoor parklet so it’s not windy and actually a bit cozy!
