The soup base is kind of bland and the service is mediocre. Overall the experience isn't terrible but I don't plan to come again... because what I get just doesn't deserve the price. Read more

Shabuway has been my go to place for years now. I?ve tried other hotpot/shabu spots, but nothing compared to the Shabuway San... Mateo. The meat and vegetable quality is top tier! On top of that, everyone there is super nice and attentive! Makes for a verycomfy experience. And if you?re looking for a spot to watch the game, 3 TVs!! Read more

This is my favorite restaurant for healthy lunch. If I don't ask too many bowls of white rice, Shabu-shabu hot pot is low-carb,... high-protein meal with good amount of dietary fiber, therefore I go to Shabuway at least once a week. The owner always carefullypurchases the quality meats. When he could receive a good quality of beef blocks, he recommends Angus beef, for example, withconfidence even I was about to ask Kobe beef which is higher priced. The owner is such a honest guy yet low-key usually. Themeats are such carefully chosen, and the sesame souse is the best part of this hot pot. I can buy several Shabu-shabu saucesfrom Japanese supermarkets but no one can beat Shabuway?s rich and flavorful sesame sauce. Because Shabu-shabu is a self-servicecooking, you have to careful heating the thin-sliced meat in the boiling broth. I prefer nice and pink medium-rare cooked, so Itap the meat only for 2 to 3 seconds in the broth. If you cook too much, it loses the texture, flavor and fat then the meatturns like a piece of cardboard? so be careful for heating and find your most favorite. Have fun! Read more

This is so sad!!!! Is it so hard to open a hotpot restaurant and you do your job to make sure your soup base is good? You have... nothing to do but make sure your soup is good right?! But no sorry, this place is awful experience!!! So I had spicy miso, tastelike water. I?m not even joking!!! And I asked them ?can this be more flavorful? ? I mean add more miso into it. But they saidno can do. They gave me more soup base but still taste the same. The quality of meat is so bad too. Kobe beef and angus beef.Taste like cardboard box. This is so sad. I love hot pot. But this place you can skip for sure. Read more

I love hot pot and probably can eat it once a week everywhere, especially of the weather is cold outside. I love AYCE Chinese... style hot pots with all types of meats, vegetables and bunch of stuff you would not think taste good being boiled! However, Isometimes find that simplicity can be the best. Especially if it's just high quality kobe beef and savory broth. I've beencoming to Shabuway for over 10 years and have even been to the old Mountain View location multiple times. The meat slicer-Enrique has been working here for 16years! A little bit over 20 dollars for dinner, a very satisfying meal Masks worn by staff.Hand sanitizers available. Parking moderate on street and garage. Read more
