Love love love. Raw bar is awesome.It's a great place but don't go there if you are very hungry))I love that place but it's not enough to eat for me( otherwise it comes with $200 bill)
Awesome hotpot . Best kimchi broth I’ve had in Boston. Not a super posh place, but the food is great. Service is fast considering how crowded they are.
First time trying shabu shabu . The host and server were very kind and attentive. We shared the veggie gyoza , seafood supreme, veggie broth with the Kimchee and Szechuan flavors. Tasty and delicious!
Delicious hot pot , great atmosphere, spicy is best for the broth!
Stellar hot pot option in Boston. Get the spicy Szechuan broth and beef tongue !
For a special lunch or dinner , try this hot pot restaurant . Choose beef sirloin ($15), chicken ($11), seafood ($12), or a vegetarian platter ($12). Sashimi is also available. Read more
Very tasty, albeit overly expensive . Make sure to get the spicy broth and try all the dipping sauces .
Pretty good shabu shabu joint. Ask for some sesame dipping sauce if you get beef , it's free and makes it pop
Beef tongue , and tom yum hotpot broth!

Beef are so Great!
Good service when you get their attention. Good hotpot and nice place though it's pretty noisy . Fairly pricey for what you get too. 3.5/5
I start with Kim Chi broth...A1 is my cure for hangover... Meat Combo beef and chicken is good or if I want something lighterI go with the Veggie Delight... Extra Yam Balls... Yum Yum Yum!!!
Order the sautéed beef tongue , carpaccio , Tom yum broth with short ribs . YUM!
The best shabu on earth!
I enjoy eating Mongolian broth .
Hot Pot is soooooo good!! Be sure to wash it down with Sake Bomb ! Also Ask for David!
Ask the waiter and try your shabu shabu with peanut sauce .
The food here is so good. So much to choose from and staff is so helpful.
Awesome choice for tonight's dinner ! A must-try! :)
Mongolian soup is the best!
Best Shabu in Boston! Try the kimchee broth!
Shabu Zen is the bomb. Gotta go for A1 beef with a side of Assorted Tofu . I normally hate Tofu , but it's so good eaten Shabu-style.
A5 + C5 (side order of beef for the new folks) + Banana smoothie all the way.
Don't stand or chat in groups of 3.
Fresh watermelon smoothie is SO refreshing and super fresh!!

Vegetarian options , not as many as you might think. Just ok, not awesome. Search top Asian list for better choices.

Take your time. Order the taro , put it in first and forget about it for a while. Unique dining experience, but nothing to fear!

Ask for Waylon. He's a cutie.

Their shrimp fried rice with bacon is the best next to their sushi. Gotta try it! - Omeed Askari
