I have been coming here to eat for the last couple years. The staff here is super friendly and always make you feel welcome. They're always quick to help, whether it's topping off the broth or recommending what to try if you're new. The place is really clean, too, which I appreciate. The ingredients are fresh, the broths are full of flavor, and overall it's just a great experience. My favorite meat is the New York strip. Highly recommend checking it out if you're in the mood for something different!

We enjoy the food here and so does my 10 yrs old. We were there yesterday for lunch and realized a lot of customers have a hard time figuring it out. So I hope this will help. We always order the special for 2 beef sampler. You get a little bit of every type of meat. Includes 2 drinks/soju/beers & a small plate(appetizer). For the soups we get the tonkatsu(pork bone broth). Now if you don't get the meat marinated like us then ask for the garlic, radish, green onions condiments to add to your soup. I usually add the garlic and radish paste while adding the green onions into my dip sauce. If you like spicy don't forget the hot drops either in the soup or the dip sauce. For the dip sauce they will give you 2 kind (goma- peanut base sauce and ponsu-Japanese citrus based) we usually ask for 2 ponsu each. You will get a side of rice each and also veggies/udon. Desserts included. Now I don't think a lot of customers are aware but you do get a free refill side of rice, veggies and soup for your pot. This is enough for us with or without our son.It's a fun spot for a group or by yourself. It does get crowded during peak hours. Highly recommend.

Mokkoji you have failed us again. We have it chances .... every single time we have come you guys are either out of something or service is so horrible we just want to walk out! Here we are again and they are out of flat iron and shrimp and chicken, what else?! Instead of having us sit through so much time passed, why don't you let customers know while handing out the menu that you are out of certain menu items?!?? If you are out of flat iron but make us pay for the higher grade meats you should offer the same price for the flat iron it is not the customers fault you ran out or don't order enough inventory. ALSO THE RESTAURANT was dead so can't say they were super busy so they ran out of food! This riverside location is by far the worst location! Never again. why do we even bother keep coming and giving them a try? because we used to go to the locations back in orange county and it was good!!!

We discovered this place when we were checking out riverside mall. This one was a great hidden gem, as there is not many shabu shabu places in the area. The inside is very small as are the tables so forewarned. They sat us very quickly, and it was quite busy. They offer a selection of broths to choose from and meats and veggies to follow. The range of broths is pretty good, and they also offer veggie broth as well. When they brought out our broth, we control the burners and heat temperature. Be careful as you can nudge it, it's very sensitive. The table was packed which made it a little difficult to manage. Everything cooked well and they had a few sauces for dipping, and the noodles they offer were pretty good. Overall it was very good however the service is slow and it's difficult to get their attention. Also it can be very noisy as everything is very compact.

First time, celebrating our son's birthday. He had been a few times and really likes it here. I was disappointed in the size of the table for 4. The table was old and stained. I think I had higher expectations of such a popular spot. Every plate was squished onto our table while we attempted to maneuver around a boiling pot of delicious broth. How we didn't burn ourselves is a surprise to me. Every dish of pork belly, wagyu, flank and brisket was fresh and aplenty. The side dishes were fresh and sauces were impressive. Overall would've been a 4 if we weren't so squished and sitting on hard old wooden benches. Customer service could've been better but only 1 server who was very kind, just very busy. $200 was overpriced to me considering experience.

This place was delicious, definitely come hungry. I think an improvement could be instructions for those who have not been to the establishment before. I went with a group that did know how it works, but it was easy to get confused with how to order, what to expect, add-ons, etc. They have a hot oil drops which are spicy and great addition if you like spice, and the sukiyaki comes with an egg, don't forget to ask for it. The appetizer was small for what the price was (cucumbers), but the meat was high quality, definitely get them marinated.

Super happy that Riverside has a consistently good Shabu place that I can go to for a home style Shabu fix when I don't feel like making it at home! I've been to this location a handful of times and always leave with my cravings satisfied, ordering the staple sukiyaki broth and Toro beef combos. The service is on the steady slower side, but I'm not complaining because there's never really a wait for seating. The restaurant is clean enough to keep cooking back, and my only suggestion is for them to get new tables because at this point they're all warped from the pot heating systems.

The food was good and the service was okay. Our server was friendly but didn't check in on us much after taking our order and not too personable. The restaurant itself is quite small and may not be ideal for larger groups. Overall, it was a decent experience.

Always love a good shabu shabu place & this place surprised my husband and me in a good way. We usually get sukiyaki for the broth but OMG the spicy sukiyaki is WHERE IT'S AT! The flavor was amazing; we wanted to take more home. This broth was a stand out for us in comparison to other shabu spots we have been to. I also appreciated that they allowed me to swap some of the vegetables and noodles for items I liked more for the ones I don't like because not all shabu spots allow it. Coming back for sure!
