Was our first time trying this shabu shabu place. It had a cool modern feel much like Shakou if you have ever been there and was set up in a way for people to try shabu shabu for the first time. The service was great and they add a bit of pizazz when explaining/setting up . It was overall a good experience but compared to other shabu shabu places the broth was lacking and it was pricey. Overall we would reccomend for a fun experience and definite yes if you have never had shabu shabu!

This was pretty amazing, plus the staff were fantastic. We drove down, about a 3+ hour drive, and the staff hooked us up with the all you can eat plan even though they usually only have that at lunch. They were awesome for doing that. The food was great, highly recommend it. We will be back when we are back down in this area. ^^
