Customer Reviews
We’re regulars at Shabu-Works and visit several times a month. They have a huge variety of hot pot bases and the ingredients are always fresh and plentiful. The all-you-can-eat deal is a great value, and the staff is incredibly welcoming!
Shabu Works in San Marcos is one of our favorite go-to restaurants—we come about once a month and it never disappoints. The restaurant is clean, spacious, and comfortable, making it a great place to enjoy a relaxed meal. The food is very good for the price, especially considering the quality and variety. If you get a membership (only $35 per year), you receive great discounts—$4 off lunch or $5 off dinner per person, which adds up quickly. They also offer daily specials for different customers, such as kids eating free on Tuesdays, birthday meals, and military discounts, which we really appreciate. Dinner options include Wagyu beef, and the drink selection is extensive with plenty of choices. Don’t miss the shaved ice dessert—it’s delicious and refreshing. Overall, great value, great fo

What a great experience! We thought that because we came last minute, around 8 PM, we wouldn’t be able to eat as much or fully enjoy it since they close at 9, but that wasn’t the case. At first, I felt rushed to eat, but actually, once I got my first serving, I didn’t feel rushed at all, and we ended up eating a ton of food. Next time, I’ll definitely come earlier to enjoy everything a bit more. This place is amazing. All the veggies were super fresh, and the meat wasn’t frozen like it is at some places. The udon noodles were great, and even some of their pre-made items like the teriyaki chicken, kimchi, and other sides were really good too. For broth, we got the garlic miso and one of their top sellers that was suggested to us. I can't remember the name, but it was really good. This was
This hot pot place honestly exceeded my expectations. The restaurant is clean, cozy, and has a great atmosphere — perfect for hanging out with friends and enjoying a long meal together. The broth was super flavorful. We ordered the tomato soup base and the spicy broth, and both were amazing. The spicy one had a nice kick but wasn’t overwhelming, and the tomato broth was rich and comforting. The quality of the ingredients was impressive — the beef slices were tender, the tripe was fresh and had the perfect texture, and the shrimp paste was bouncy and delicious. Everything tasted very fresh. Service was also excellent. The staff was friendly, attentive, and quick to refill the soup and clear plates. Food came out fast, and we didn’t have to wait long at all. For the quality and portion si
