Customer's reviews
Finally, we have a Shabu Shabu restaurant in SLC! Sukiyaki is one of my favorite things to eat when I visit Japan. Now I can enjoy it any time I like here at Mr. Shabu! This type of restaurant might be a little daunting if you've never been to one before. I recommend going with a friend who knows what's up. The fact that everyone gets an individual pot makes this the perfect group dinner. You can choose your favorite flavor of broth and then cook up whatever meat and veggies you prefer. No compromises! The wait staff is friendly and quickly arrives after pressing the call button. The restaurant is also bigger than it seems. The decor is very modern and it's super clean. The free toothbrushes and mouthwash in the bathrooms add a fun twist that will make your visit memorable.

I've been coming to Mr. Shabu for at least 6 months if not longer. I can honestly say that this is a high quality resturant that is worth coming back to everytime. I usually try to come for the $5 sushi night after 8pm. They only let the first 30 customers have the promotion and I have never had a problem being sat and served with excellent care and attention.
I understand that it is a limited promotion and they are not able to always seat everyone who comes in the door. Even if I dont get a seat I think it is well worth coming back time and again to enjoy the relaxed and upscale atmosphere, service and quality of food.
The sushi rolls here are phenomenal and I haven't tried the ramen yet but I am excited to try it in the future.
Mr. Shabu, whatever you are doing. You are doing it right.

The place was great and so was the food!
Both times I had the tonkatsu broth and it was very flavorful. The options at the food bar are great. They have different kinds of veggies, fish cakes, seafood and many noddles. My favorite is the dumplings and the kimchi.
They also have an option that you can pay for just the broth and the food bar. The appetizers are also great, definitely recommend the corn cheese served with the dinner menu. The cream cheese wontons were also a favorite.
I went there during different hours, lunch and dinner have different perks. I would recommend the lunch time for anyone that likes quiet. The cost is also less but some items are only searved with the dinner menu. Dinner time has more options but can be a long wait and is noisier.
