Shabu 88 - Rowland Heights

Came here on a Tuesday night, not busy at all. Good quality meat and broth. Portions were good. Service was great. Would definitely come back.

Was debating between two other AYCE shabu places in the area but ended up here! Shabu 88 is a solid AYCE shabu spot within the area and I'd say it's just as good as the more expensive ones. There is a self-serve veggie and sauce bar and they also provide gloves to keep everything a bit more hygienic. Lots of options to choose from and they definitely offer a good variety, which is really important! The meat quality was good and the broth itself was also pretty standard. Overall would recommend this to anyone in the area!

Good selection of meats and flavorful soup base. Where it lacks is in the sauce and vegetables department. Limited options, but at least what's available is fresh. No hot food at this time, probably because of Covid precautions. Service is fast including delivery of meats and clean up of empty plates. A party of 4 would use one split pot.

This is forever my go to place for Shabu! The workers are the sweetest! They consistantly check your table to see if your group is doing okay and if anything was needed. This is my 4th time coming here and it never disappoints. (Photos taken were from at the restaurant few months ago) I came here last night dor a birthday and I normally get the sukiyaki and the house spicy broth! It's so good! Even better when you combine both! Great quality of meat(s)! When I ordered the meat, instead of giving one of each on the beef side of the menu, they gave 2 each of the meat. Which was a but to much since there were 5 of us. But that was my fault, I should have said 1 of each for both sides of the table. It is an AYCE so you kinda want to pace yourselves! I do like this shabu place more than others because most shabu places give you the veggie toppings with your order, compared to here, they have a full toppings and sides bar! Definately can't beat the price either!

The service was amazing, 5 stars for service and 3 stars for the meat quality. I will definitely come back again to eat here at least one more time to re-judge the meat quality:
