    Pretty good hot pot. Gotten a bit pricey. Sitting at the bar is a good spot. Each broth comes with some veg. Order more noodles and make your of ramen!

    This was out of my comfort zone and I was told I would enjoy it so took the opportunity to continue to try new things. I quickly learned how to use chopsticks as I cooked my own food. I enjoyed my lunch which was the A10 with Beef and Lamb with a chicken broth. Also had a green tea shake which was perfect for afterwards. This is a place I will most certainly come back to as everything was absolutely delicious!

    Have been here a few times with friends for dinner after work -- it really is always a great experience. There is a wide assortment to choose from so there is something for everyone (and plenty of vegetarian options!!). Also I'm a sucker for the peach sake, it's a must order in my opinion. It really is just a fun dining experience. Highly recommend.

    My family and I have been eating at @shabuzenboston (instagfor years and it hits the spot everytime‼ the herbal broth is one of our favorites and the quality of their meats is the best we've had in hot pot We haven't been able to find short rib better than here! The appetizers can honestly stand on their own too. We can't get enough of their sautéed beef tongue and the berkshire sausage that you dip in a honey mustard sauce Although Shabu-Zen is on the pricier side for hotpot, the quality of their ingredients is what makes it a spot we go to every time for special occassions and family dinners out! Definitely give it a try and let me know what you think!
