"Mikiya Wagyu Shabu House is the perfect spot for a hot pot. This Chinatown restaurant provides 90 uninterrupted minutes of unlimited wagyu. Four AYCE levels—the cheapest option starts at $45—give you increased access to different cuts of meat and special perks. Upper levels include seafood platters covered in crustaceans and “specialty dishes” like the crispy-seared wagyu nigiri. No matter which level you choose, you can dunk the marbled shoulder cuts of meat into a subtly sweet sukiyaki broth and let it cook with napa cabbage from the unlimited salad bar. Mikiya Shabu is nirvana for wagyu enthusiasts, so come here for a group dinner with the most serious beef eaters you know." - gianni greene, chelsea thomas
