Kanpai BBQ & Shabu - All You Can Eat

Kanpai BBQ and Shabu, located in the heart of Convoy District, offers an affordable, quality All-You-Can-Eat Dining experience featuring Hot pot/Shabu and Korean BBQ, with the option to enjoy both. For their KBBQ meats, the M-8 Wagyu Steak, Wagyu Brisket, and Chuck Eye were worth mentioning as they were high-quality and had a nice, juicy flavor. For the Hotpot, 2 broths could be chosen from their selection of 8 broth bases. Additionally, the meal also includes bottomless sodas/fruit tea, endless appetizers (e.g., Fries, Beef Curry, Miso Soup, Rice), alongside access to their sauce and salad bar. For dessert, try their Crispy Golden Buns with Condensed Milk or their Ice Cream bar, in which your sweet cravings won’t be disappointed. The staff was very accommodating and attentive during our

I can't say enough good things about this place. The quality, taste and variety of hot pot food was out of this world, and the service was amazing because our server is not only warm and friendly but highly informative and helped us decide from so many tempting choices with his expert description of everything. and there's no complicated pricing. One price for everything. That's it. Simple! His recommendations were perfect. We will definitely be back!
