Shabu²

This was my first hot pot experience and I was blown away! The broths were so flavorful, the meat and veggies were fresh. Heiden was an amazing waitress and she was very nice and helpful. She explained everything on the menu and provided suggestions. She recommended the spicy crab broth, AMAZING!! She encouraged us to try the chili cucumbers and they were amazing! It was a wonderful dinner and we will for sure be back!!!

Wow, I was blown away by the quality of the food. The crab and tonkotsu broth is delicious, and all of the veggies/meat is fresh. The fish balls were my favorite thing out of everything, highly recommend trying those. Cucumber salad is good too. However, the servers/service was very unprofessional. Servers were having conversations with each other in front of everyone, often cussing very loudly. Just seemed unprofessional. Food itself is great, service is mediocre.

Shabu^2 is hands down my favorite hotpot place in Houston. It’s the one place that I to go to whenever I’m craving higher quality hotpot. I have been here multiple times and have never had a bad meal. It always hits. Big shoutout to Rene, Michelle, Rachel, and company for making the experience that much better.

My husband, son, and I recently visited from Alaska and absolutely loved this place! The food was delicious, the service was top-notch, and the staff were friendly and knowledgeable about the different meats. The restaurant was clean, and the prices were great. I hope Houston keeps this gem open—we truly had a wonderful experience!

Finally found a hot pot spot in Houston ! Rated everything a 5 star! I’ve been to many hotpot / shabu spots and this is by far one of my most extremely delicious spot I’ve visited! Customer service is extremely great, very attentive and satisfying; food and service were quick ! Food choices were excellent on this visit the way the meat was sliced and set also along with one of my favorite side sauces !! This place is not too big but the set up is really nice! The choices are high table near the bar, booth, tables and the bar all have a set up for your hot pot ! Most definitely my go to spot!

With all the hotpot places in town it is tough to choose but I heard good things about here so wanted to try it before they close down! It is smaller than like shabu zone or en. Meat quality is good. No emoki mushroom. I like the instant noodles it reminded of mama noodles. The spicy gives good flavor. Because it’s not buffet style waiting between rounds felt long. Glad to have tried it and looking forward to their new restaurant!

My friends and I used to come at least once a month and were really sad to hear it was going to be converted.. I don’t think it was a business play, but rather a business trying to adapt. Service and food were as great as ever! Broths were delicious and the meat was a great quality. We all got the tier 2 and ate our weight in bavette, chop flap and fish balls. Vy was a wonderful server and helped us to nail the broths. 10/10.
