We have had hotpot at this place on various trips to Japan in different locations. They recently opened their very first store in JB with a bang. Every food item and the interior decor was exceptionally modeled in the Japanese style, clearly displaying an authentic Japanese steamboat.
We decided to have the Korobuta Beef and Pork. Although we liked the soup base, we felt RM64.90++ per person was really not worth the money.

Waffle: 1/10 (Very different from Japan; watery)
Waffle Condiments: 1/10 (Watery, no chocolate sugar powder - very different from Japan)
Variety of Dishes: 10/10 - Much more than in Japan.
- Missing dishes such as potato salad and "yellow noodle" wonton mee (Japan has those).
Price: 10/10
Sukiyaki Soup: 1/10 - Don't waste your time; it's not as good as Shabu-yo in Japan.
I miss the robot cat server in Japan. I prefer robots to serve us.
Why no crepe?

Finally, JB also got Shabuyo! I hope management can hire more staff. The food is delicious, but there aren't enough staff. Most of the sauces, drinks, ice, and cutlery were not sufficiently stocked, and no one refilled them. We also cleared the plates ourselves because no staff helped us.
The curry was very watery, and no one took care of it. There was no fried chicken and takoyaki like in KL, and no cheese sauce. Eggs also cost RM1 each, even though I already paid RM80 for this hotpot buffet.
So, if you've tried KL Shabuyo, don't expect it to be the same. The management here is quite poor compared to KL.

Overall, I'm very satisfied with this place. It's not too expensive and has a good selection of food.
I did feel that the broths were quite salty, and the Japanese curry was also salty.
But other than that, I'm pleased with this place. I would consider coming back again.

First time here and I was surprised they offered a wide variety of cooked food, fresh vegetables, and desserts. Service was swift, with the meat delivered minutes after ordering. The soup broth was nice, and the goma rice was really tasty. I will be back again.

Thumbs up to the team and management! We loved their beef, and each of us had 8-10 servings during the 120 minutes. Yes, it's timed, so please take note, or there might be extra charges. If you're unsure, always check with the friendly staff.
We tried their famous teriyaki soup and the original pork ribs soup, which were recommended by the staff. Both soups went well with the fresh ingredients, and to top it off, there's a variety of sauces for us to mix and match.
This is a Japanese steamboat, so there's no hot chili or mala. There's a wide range of vegetables and mushrooms to choose from. There's also a cooked food section offering tori karaage—Japanese fried chicken. The fried chicken was tasty and even more delicious when it was hot and fresh from the kitchen.
Our girls enjoyed baking their own pancakes and the mocha ice cream. Our parents enjoyed the cozy atmosphere and wide variety of choices, too. We will visit again soon 😘

We had a buffet pork and chicken lunch set. It was 290 RM for 3 adults and 2 children. The soup was yummy, and there were many types to choose from, either thick or clear.
There was a variety of vegetables, beverages, fried food, and noodles to select from. Everything was fresh, clean, and nicely arranged. There was also a waffle maker to DIY.
The service was fast, the staff friendly, and the ambience comfortable for having meals with friends or family, as seen in the shop decorations and spacious, clean seat arrangements.
