Went for an early dinner, great service. The staff there were incredibly helpful and informative. The place was very clean and organized. They have tables and at the bar you can get your individual pot to cook in. We sat at the bar and proceeded to eat! It's the traditional shabu shabu experience where you swish your meat and veggies in the broth, but the bonus is that at the end they help cook your udon noodles (and anything else you have left) into a bowl for a great udon soup!Will come back again for the food and service.

It's a fun dinner. The first timer will be confused with the process. First, you choose the broth. Kombu (seaweed) free but if you choose the rest extra up-charge $3.Then choose meats (extra charges).It comes with veggies, udon, and an option of white rice or brown rice.Napa cabbage refillable.Then you make your sauce. Beware of peanut allergies because one of the bases of the is Peanut butter sauce.The servers are all informative and helpful.The customer has an option to not do shabu shabu and can sit at a regular table. We sat on the countertop with a built-in stovetop.We choose one option with beef at $25 per person.We ordered a spicy tuna roll, a California roll, and a shrimp tempura roll. Well ...maybe it's just us we are picky with our sushi NOT recommended. The rice is dry, not stick together, not plump, and not seasoned enough. Overall is a good experience but economically not a good deal. My daughter did the review on line for them and get free mochi ice cream.The restaurant is clean and slow mussic on the back grounds:

Located in the Pam Am plaza - now being under construction is this high quality hot pot! Indoor decor is pretty clean and looks more sophisticated than other hot pot places ~ has a cool island round table style ~ My server was exquisite! He was quick to provide service, information about all select items, and was extremely kind! This is NOT all you can eat. But I definitely had my fill! I chose the beef option + seafood... I got a large but I definitely should have gotten the regular They have a good variety of preselected veggies/noodles and I also tried their sushi - delicious!Overall, great quality - the meats were nicely marbled and lean. The scallops / shrimps were generous in size as well! Overall 8.5/10 experience and would come back for the quality!

Good food, great service, at this joint in the Pan Am Center. Nice Gyoza dumplings to start. You choose your broth (I went with the Tonkatsu, my daughter the traditional Kombu, and my wife the sukiyaki), and your primaries (chicken, shrimp, mussels, etc.) then cook your ramen and assorted stuff at the bar in front of you. The server helped us along. The final ramen produced was delicious. It is sort of like going to a regular ramen joint, but having it deconstructed. A bit pricey, so I'd err on the side of a Mini instead of a Regular size.

Plenty of seating on a Saturday evening! Interesting set up where everyone is seated along a long table facing the inside, with everyone having individual pots. So probably not the best for a large team dinner. The menu options are packaged up nicely so all you have to choose are the meats / seafood and the broth type. I got the choice meat and scallop--the meat was very fresh and flavorful and the scallop was large but not the most flavorful. The tonkotsu broth was very flavorful! Note that the free broth (traditional kombu) is just water with a seaweed in it. Service was great, with help with cooking the noodles and making the sauce, etc. The service ended with a nice bowl of soup with udon - very well done!

Quality beef cut - get the primer one and you won't regret. Service was friendly and fast. Birthday ice cream on the house. Bar area can be hard for big groups for conversations.

Been awhile since I been here, but returned with my husband and 2 kids. Made reservations via yelp which was very convenient! The seating for hot pot is all counter style, but we got the seats along the curve so we could kinda face each other. My kids kids are old enough to manage and use chopsticks so we each had our own pots. The food and service were superb! My son and I had a mix of the tonkatsu and spicy miso broth with the prime rib beef and my husband and older son had the tonkotsu broth and wagyu beef. All were excellent! The wagyu beef, though expensive, was definitely worth the splurge. The waiter assisted us with every step from ordering to mixing the sauces to adding our noodles! We finished it off with mochi ice cream for dessert. Everyone loved the meal! Highly recommend this place!
