Not bad, specially for the price. Decent selection of meats, and sauces.
Hate that they cut the urine in half. Makes it difficult to eat.

Shabuya – We passed by it multiple times but never have a chance to stop by and finally here we were.
The food + prices = so-so, but I can say that it is good experience to try out. We ordered the number 1-5 double double since we only did the beef. The Vietnamese guy waiter was really nice and funny brought up the whole fun and delicious asmostphere to us. The food is good, and we love the broth that he recommended. There was no wait on the Tuesday night which was great since we were starving.
The food stations come with all different type of seafood, noodles, fish balls,… Different choices to choose. Good food and serving clean.
If it not about front desk lady JESSICA who was assigning us to sit at the table rudely, and throwing the plates, chopsticks in front of our face after we sat in 1 second, I would give this place a 5 stars for sure. This lady Jessica was so rude and seems like she thought the we were teenagers that she can treated us like that. The attitude was surprising rude since this is our first time.
Overally thank to to Vietnamese waiter did a wonderful job and the kitchen gave us a good impression and experience, if not we would choose to leave in the beginning without trying. It seems like some of the bad reviews are definitely true about their customer service

This place is all you can eat cook your own food. Basically a soup buffet. Perfect for the price. Great self serve environment and very tentative servers. If it’s first time there they will tell you how it all works. Help with ordering and putting together a very delicious meal. We also have been to the one on oahu.

Shabuya is an all-you-can-eat shabu shabu franchise. What’s shabu shabu? It’s a Japanese hotpot dish in which you cook thinly sliced raw meat in a pot of boiling, flavorful broth.
The Broth:
First, you select one of 5 broths. I chose the original house broth, which was a brown broth made from dashi, veggies, and various seasonings. It had a laidback flavor, which I preferred so it wouldn’t overpower the meat
The Meats:
Speaking of which, there are 8 cuts of thinly cut meat (5 beef, 2 pork, and 1 chicken). That’s not a huge selection, but all cuts were yummy. My favorite hands down was the beef toro (belly) — amazing marbling and delicious taste!
The Appetizers:
If your goal is to get your money’s worth, you’ll probably want to skip these. But since it was my first time I wanted to try a little bit of everything, and was pleasantly surprised to find that all 3 types of karaage (fried chicken) was quite good. I didn’t have the fourth and final appetizer, goyza, so can’t comment on that.
The Salad Bar:
As far as AYCE goes, this salad bar was relatively small. But what they did have was good, ranging from squid and octopus to mushrooms and bok choy. The only thing I genuinely didn’t like was the crab; it was probably frozen for awhile and lost its tenderness and juiciness.
The Cooking:
Unlike old-school setups, at Shabuya, everyone gets their own hot pot and burner, with adjustable temperature. I had fun cooking my own food, with each piece reaching its “doneness” just the way I like it instead of having to compromise or share the pot with others.
The Service:
Our server, Jenny, was outstanding! She was quick, friendly, and knowledgeable. Plus, she seemed to always anticipate our needs before we needed to ask and made excellent recommendations for my first time. Can’t say enough good things about her.
The Setting:
It has a modern aesthetic, with plenty of space between tables. Plus, everything was pretty clean for a buffet.
Overall:
While I didn’t care for the crab and the overall selection of meats and appetizers was smaller than anticipated, I truly enjoyed Shabuya. The quality of food is top notch, the customer service was excellent, and the price is actually pretty good ($29.99 per adult) when you consider today’s inflation and steep cost of living. While my true rating is a 4.5 out of 5, since I can’t give half stars, I’ll round out to 5 out of 5. We’ll be back!

This place is the best! Great selection of fresh vegetables and seafood, sauces, etc and the meat is fresh and delicious. They offer 5 different booths, all are good. The service is perfect. The servers are friendly and attentive. Well worth $29.99!

I wish I could give this place 1 star tonight, but I can’t because the food is actually very good. I love the food here, which makes this experience even more disappointing.
Tonight, Friday Jan 30, my experience was ruined by the hostess at the front desk. She is a skinny girl with red hair wearing a white shirt. Her attitude was extremely rude and unwelcoming. The way she spoke to customers was mean and dismissive, as if we owed her something just for being there.
I’m writing this review while still dining here because that’s how bad the experience was. She completely ruined my Friday night and killed my appetite, despite how much I usually enjoy the food.
Management really needs to rethink who is placed in a customer-facing role. If someone has this kind of attitude, they should be reassigned to work in the back of the house doing kitchen or cleaning duties rather than being the first person customers see.

Visitors, a must stop for bang for your buck place to eat. I wasted alot of money eating at other dine in $$ resturants but this one hit the spot when looking to forfill a big appetite. Be careful not to over order you can reorder is items are getting low. Time starts when you sit so make sure you get the attention of a staff if waiting more than 5 mins. All the low reviews either had a bad experience, busy times, locals residents or too boujie for this place. If you are decent at cooking you can make good of what they have to offer and make the best of it. Nothing plain if you know how to chef it up.

Arrived at the restaurant on a Friday night around 7sh… before the crowd arrived. For an AYCE, the food selections were great. Their seafood options were fresh and the beef options also did not disappoint. They had numerous broth options. My wife and i had the tonkotsu and spicy type broth. Both were great. Definitely worth the price IMO. Service was quite good as they made sure we had everything that we needed

Shabuya in Fountain Valley Promenade offers decent shabu-shabu with plenty of vegetables and all-you-can-eat meat, which is a nice option. However, the service wasn’t great, including the receptionist, who didn’t seem very welcoming. The food was good, but the experience could’ve been better with more attentive service.
