Shabu Zen: Quick and Tasty Hotpot Shabu Zen is my choice for a quick hotpot fix. The standout feature here is the fast service, which ensures you won't be waiting long for your bubbling pot of goodness. The menu offers a wide selection of meats, veggies, and other hotpot delights, providing a variety of choices to customize your meal. What sets Shabu Zen apart is the extensive range of broth options, allowing you to tailor your hotpot experience to your taste. However, as a self-proclaimed sauce enthusiast, I was slightly disappointed that they only offer one sauce. Hotpot, for me, is all about the dipping and experimenting with different flavors, so the limited sauce selection left me wanting more. While I do stop by Shabu Zen from time to time, there's still a special place in my heart for other hotpot spots in Chinatown. Despite the quick service and variety, the overall experience can sometimes feel a bit rushed. 🍲🥢🏮

Broth and food are extremely fresh and high quality! Kind and friendly staff. Can’t wait to come back! Only thing I’d say is I wish there was a sauce bar. You’re provided soy sauce with a side of garlic and scallions. It is a very good base but I like how other places let you customize your sauce. Thanks for the great food! Edit: I want to correct my mistake. I said that you aren’t able to customize your sauce. All I had to do was ask… duh! I asked for more garlic and cilantro and within 15 seconds I had it. What a great place!

0 star for the manager! The portion is so small. And service is so terrible!!!! The manager at the front desk was so RUDE and missed up my check. He charged me $118 as someone's bill. I'm telling him the number is not correct and this is not my bill. He kept saying “ just paid it” and blaming me that he needs to tap again because I didn’t pay on time. Then I was right, and it was not my bill. But he kept blaming me for my language. The worst service that I have been experiencing in my life. Never come to this store again!!! There are many hop pot stores better than this one. At least they have a better service!

Probably one of the best hotpot’s we have ever had in the U.S. All of the raw food was good quality and fresh. They had the surf and turf set that contained salmon, flounder, sliced beef, and a variety of vegetables. They have individual small pots and big group pots. The place was also very clean even though it was in Chinatown.

Me, my wife and kids love this hot pot 🍲. I’ve been coming here for 10 years plus and it’s always on point. Everything is always on point and the Wagyu beef is to die for. Some of my favorite things on the menu are the sautéed baby clams and their watermelon 🍉 smoothie. I also can’t forget to mention the service, it is fast 💨 and always good. If you’re looking for good hot pot in China 🇨🇳 Town you must go here.
