Oishi Shabu Shabu

Great place for all you can eat Shabu Shabu. The meat quality was high especially for the beef. But the lamb comes with too much fat. The salad has many varieties including sea food, veggies, and some good appetizers. Service is fast with the robot delivering food.

Robots service was a really cool touch! Personalized stove top burners at every table was fantastic to keep soups/foods hot, cooking, and delicious. Also with a great food bar selection to cook your favorite food options! Very clean and friendly classy service! Extra fee for food waste is a bit excessive, since the meal price should already cover this expense. I was still able to eat all my food, so this wasn't a problem for me. The meal price is not cheap because the food quality and cleanliness is superb! I highly recommend this phenomenal restaurant!

This is probably one of the best shabu shabu places around! Dinner was around $29 per person but unlike hai di lao or maybe happy sheep, the hot pots arnt in a single location, but rather your own pot in front! This makes it easier for those wanting something spicy broth to something light broth like my shoyu broth. They have 2 different meat menus, one with wagyu and one thats the standard meats. Either way, the standard menu still had really tender meats like the ribeye cuts and tenderloin! Some more filling options too included the beef belly and pork belly. Also at the buffet side, there are some nice sides such as takoyaki, gyoza, seaweed salad and oranges and fried rice. There are also vegetables and seafood to get as well! Service was friendly and easy to order extra meats and cleaning up the plates was done easily too by either robot waiter or custodians! Orders were delivered by robot waiters or handed to us by a waiter! They make good use by not programming a robot waiter to go to multiple tables at a time! The only disappointment was they did run out of some stuff such as smoothies and soju which almost consisted of the cocktail menu on the back... At least pepsi is $2 with unlimited refills? Overall it's nice to come back here if i was feeling spendy or treating out for an occasion here again! They seem to always have tables so capacity i hope isn't an issue!

I got the regular weekend dinner price for ayce for $33.99. the wagyu menu apparently is $57.99. they have a small hot food bar where you can appetizers such as fried chicken dumplings, sweet buns, oranges, and chinese style salads. I did think the meat quality here isn't top tier but they give out generous portions per meat order. I found the meat here to be more fatty than I liked. i appreciate how the tomyum soup base is seafood based so the only pork soup bases are the tonkotsu soups.

This shabu shabu is one of the best I’ve ever been to!! They have cute robots that bring your meats, and say bye when their done with a cute face! I went crazy for them. It’s an all you can eat Japanese shabu restaurant with options of broth to choose from and had a veggie, seafood, and sauce bar. Staff was friendly and accommodating. It’s best to pay cash because they did not accept more than one card…We will definitely be back.

Respectable and humble shabu place with great choices as presented but no wagyu beef options. The broths however are expertly made and are the highlight of the meal. Would like to see increased variety with cooked options but overall, they have a great selection already and the atmosphere is calm and peaceful to enjoy a meal at any time.

I visited this hot pot restaurant in Irvine with a couple of friends over the weekend for lunch. Located in DuPont Plaza, there’s plenty of parking available, including a free basement lot. This restaurant offers an all-you-can-eat hot pot experience. The weekday lunch is $26, while dinner is $34. On weekends, the price is $34 all day. They have a good variety of soup bases, and we particularly enjoyed the spicy tonkotsu broth. The selection of proteins was impressive, especially the prime cuts of meat, which stood out as the highlight for us. However, we found the lamb and ribeye cuts to have a bit too much fat, which wasn’t to our preference. The meats are delivered to your table by a robot server, and the service was fast and friendly. They also offer an unlimited buffet and sauce station, featuring a variety of hot foods, salads, and seafood. One downside was the strong seafood smell upon entering the restaurant, which was somewhat off-putting. Overall, if you’re looking for a hot pot experience with a wide selection of options, this place is worth considering.

We had a wonderful time eating hot pot at Oishi Shabu Shabu. It was our first time experiencing Hot pot and we were delighted with everything. The staff were very kind and gave us a rundown of how it works, as well as checked on us multiple times. We went during the weekday and they had an incredible $33 all you can eat special. We tried 3 different broths, 4 different kinds of meat, and the self serve bar had every vegetable and noodle you could imagine. The ambiance is chill and we will definitely be coming back again!
