Editor’s Favorite Restaurants to Try This Weekend in LA

"Chubby Restaurant Group has plans for total U.S. domination in the high-end hotpot market using a membership model that offers a discount to those willing to shell out $28 a year. The memberships ensure that a regular group of diners will indulge in unlimited Japanese A5 wagyu or other high-end cuts from Australia or the U.S. It’s unclear how the business works profit-wise, but the chain is rapidly expanding to Houston, New York City, Boston, and Santa Clara. Prices for non-members range from $45 to $98 and include a choice of two broths, like sukiyaki or konbu, and a parade of fatty, tender, wagyu slices. — Matthew Kang, lead editor" - Eater Staff

First time here and absolutely enjoyed my experience! Heard great things about it in terms of service and quality, but it just blew me out of the water! All the servers were great, especially Daniel, who took over for our dinner service, and Amber who was nearby, always ready to help. Daniel was so interactive, lively, and sweet and made dinner service so fun! So thank you for adding so much to the experience! We had the premium wagyu set and the seafood and some extra things, and all were excellent! As for the broth, we got the tomato and the other thing, which I can't remember. I highly recommend as well to get the mini buns to enjoy with the ice cream 😋 I would absolutely LOVE to come back! ❤️❣️💕

We came on a Friday night last week, there was no wait list and 3 of us were seated right away. We chose the silver package which offers plenty choices of meat and seafood. With the higher packages you get higher grades meat at higher price. Besides the AYCE veggies and meat, you also get unlimited wagyu curry and minced wagyu rice as well as other side dishes. The quality of the food is excellent. There's definitely plenty of food to eat, so starve before dining. There's 2 hour time limit, so use your time wisely. We took a friend from out of town to catch up, we felt hurried as our waiter tried to nudge us to pick up our pace. The fan above the hotpot at our booth was not working well and the steam was blowing to my face the entire time.

Located in a food business center, houses this great upscale shabu-shabu spot with refined ambiance and high-quality wagyu cuts. The dining area is dark, but light enough to enjoy your food. We ordered from the Gold choice, it is very good, and has thick cuts, that are very tasty. Seafood was fresh and the dessert were amazing. Always on top of making sure we are not waiting around. They are genuinely kind and very attentive, I really appreciated that. I would definitely come back here for that alone.

Second time visiting Mikiya, first time to this location. When I discovered they had a place closer to LBC I was ready to come and visit. We tried the gold tier this time around. Not sure we notice much difference between the gold and silver tier. Will need to go back and try silver again. Remember to order the seafood platter in small portions as it can be overwhelming. Nice interiors. But on the cramped side. Not much room on the table to share or eat. It's a better deal than X-pot and a LOT closer.

Great food with top-notch quality and service! I’ve been a long-time fan of the Chubby Cattle brand, and this Mikiya location is one of the closest to me. The food and service are always consistently excellent. This time, I tried the Silver Set, which was perfect for my parents, they don’t eat much but still wanted to enjoy the flavors of Wagyu and the seafood platter. Even after many visits to different locations, I still love the overall experience. Highly recommend trying the house broth and tomato soup base!

I've been here a couple times and it's gotten better and better each time. I easily made a reservation for 5 at 8PM on a Tuesday. We were promptly seated after checking in. The service tonight provided by Daniel and 2 other wonderful ladies were impeccable! They made the dinner EVERYTHINGGGGGGG. They made sure our drinks were always filled and that the meat platters were never empty. The M9 ribeye and A5 brisket was extra noteworthy tonight. A lot more marbleization and tenderness than the previous times I've visited. Thanks again, Daniel and team! You all were ah-mazing! We never felt rushed or on a time crunch while dining. Being able to stack the local membership plus the NFT benefit was so clutch!

A great dining experience. Upscale atmosphere with great food. Top notch service which we enjoyed with Richard catering to us and making sure we were content and satisfied. All the Wagyu meat cooked with the pasteurized egg brings on a whole new flavor and tenderness. We had the suits and spicy miso broth which was a great combination. Vegetables were crisp and fresh. Good selection of sides and the chopped Wagyu on rice is a must try. You can’t go wrong with a membership.

I'm not sure if I made a mistake with the broth or meat selection, but it was not a pleasant eating experience. Food seemed off to me taste wise. Service was excellent, friendly, attentive. But having tried other places this one felt lacking in flavor. The pricing also seems a bit deceptive specially for a first timer. They have prices that look to be what you would pay since they grab your attention. However there is a different higher price under it. Apparently there is a member price at a lower cost if you purchase a year membership for $25 bucks which covers two at that price as the member can bring one guest and get member pricing for two. Personally not my cup of tea but you should try it just to see if it's yours. It was fairly packed with low wait times.

Worth the Hype -- Mikiya Wagyu Shabu is a Whole Experience I heard through the Yelp grapevine that Mikiya Wagyu Shabu House gets packed -- we're talking 2 to 3 hour waits during peak times. And honestly? After finally trying it, I get why. This place is buzzing. Yes, the space is small, but the moment you walk in, you're hit with the rich aroma of boiling broth -- comforting, savory, borderline intoxicating. It instantly transports you somewhere cozy in Japan. The vibe is understated, warm, and relaxed. Dim lighting, but not too dim -- just enough to see your bubbling pot and your next slice of premium wagyu. Meat-wise, you get to pick from four tiers: Basic, Silver, Gold, and Diamond. We went with Silver, which felt like a sweet spot -- high quality without overdoing it. The seafood was fresh, no off smells or sketchy textures. The veggies? Crisp, clean, and definitely not the sad wilted kind you sometimes get elsewhere. We tried the House broth and the Tomato -- both hit the spot. They also offer Sukiyaki and Spicy Miso if you're feeling bold. With the Silver package, you also get to pick one specialty dish. Options include Sweet Shrimp Sashimi, Foie Gras, Wagyu Nigiri (our favorite -- must try), Wagyu Tartare (meh, not bad), and Wagyu Bone Marrow (also meh). Now let's talk service -- impeccable. Like, genuinely impressive. Water glasses never went empty. Broth got refilled before we even noticed it was low. We never had to flag anyone down -- they were just on it. Every round of meat felt perfectly timed, and even though you're limited to 90 minutes, we never felt rushed. Bonus: You finish with a little scoop of ice cream. Because why not end on a sweet note? Final verdict? Mikiya isn't just dinner -- it's an experience. If you can handle the wait, it's absolutely worth it. Pro tip: Go early or be prepared to snack and chill while you wait. Either way, you're in for a treat.

Service is always on point here. I love that you can book through yelp and the waiters are always attentive. Inside is pretty spacious although the sauce area is a bit of a tight squeeze when there's people waiting for it. Restrooms are located in the back right side so if you get seated on the left of the restaurant, you have to walk all the way around. Food is always good. They have a pretty standard amount of broth choices. The meat is pretty good although if you get the basic option the shoulder is extremely tough so we don't usually order it. This time we went I swear they had less sauces. There was no regular soy or sesame oil. They have a side option of curry and "ground wagyu beef". The curry is pretty good but I would love an explanation on why the "wagyu ground beef" tastes like canned corned beef hash. My husband and daughter don't like corned beef hash and instantly didn't like the ground beef and that explains why.

I love shabu/hot pot. It is my death row meal. But with all Wagyu meat? YES PLEASE. they have 4 options: basic, silver and gold. We did the silver which includes everything on the basic menu as well. I believe the silver was all Australian Wagyu. They also have these small plates/tapas you can choose from. I've tried the foie gras and Wagyu nigiri before. Both fire. The meat quality is excellent. All the cuts were really soft and buttery. They have a self serve sauce bar. The first time I got too much Thai chili that I had to dilute my sauce into 4 bowls.. Woops LOL. The only thing I don't really like is the broth options. I guess I prefer unique flavors and not the basic Japanese shabu choices but it IS a Japanese place so I'm just being picky :p You get a 90 minute time limit and service is quick and fast. There's always someone cleaning and refilling the sauce station. There's also ice cream so you can hit that sweet spot at the end of your meal.

We got the basic menu, which comes with a decent amount of meat options & split pot with sukiyaki and house broth. The Chuck ribeye and brisket were the best ones from that menu and were super soft and not chewy at all. Shoutout to our server Jessica - she was really nice and attentive the entire time! :)

ORDER silver tier (3.5/5) i visited for an early father's day celebration and decided to go with the silver tier for the seafood platter. the seafood was a little fishy, but we still enjoyed the variety of seafood offered. you can choose up to 2 broths. we went with spicy miso and sukiyaki which were both flavorful. nothing special about the meat.. SERVICE service is super good. they take their time to explain the menu and give suggestions based on your preferences. AMBIANCE dim lighting inside. plenty of seats.

I had previously left a review for their location in Temple City, but I think this location is arguably better. This time around, we opted for the Silver Tier menu instead of the Diamond, and I feel this was much more worth it. The australian wagyu cuts were delicious, and although not as melt in your mouth as A5 wagyu, it was still just as appetizing. The bone marrow here was bigger and more appetizing than the location by LA. The nigiri was also very good. I would say bone marrow is very fatty so don't order if you don't like it! It was very delicious though. Service was on point as always. Servers are very attentive and kind. Restaurant is also very clean and the lighting gives an immersive feeling, similar to their other locations. Overall, I would recommend this location for those looking for wagyu at a cheaper price! If you're looking for A5 wagyu, I would suggest visiting their sister location, Yumiyaki, as it is the best hotpot I've had by far.

Came here on a Monday with a reservation via NFT, however it wasn't needed. Your mileage may vary depending on peak times, but I would imagine, like all Chubby Group locations, and South St. Cerritos, this place will get packed at night and on the weekends. Ambiance has the same decor as other Chubby Group spots...dark, modern, clean, with wood/bamboo accents. Can't go wrong with that. Service was superb. Owner/Management don't miss with their picks; and the people who worked Monday were quick, responsive, polite, and had excellent rapport with us and the tables around us. The Bone Marrow special item was delicious, however the foie gras was a little meh for me. I tasted more Blueberry than actual foie gras. Side Items: Shrimp Tempura surprisingly really good. My Godson loved the Gyoza, he at the whole plate himself (He's 2!!). He also really enjoyed the minced beef over rice they always have. Meat and vegetables were great, and the sukiyaki and house broths were very flavorful. Although I love Shabu, and the end result broth/soup was one of the best I've had post-shabu meal, I don't think this is the best way to enjoy A5. If you over cook it, the meat basically becomes regular quality with all the fat rendered, and there is a fine line between perfect and over cooked. That may be a personal thing, so you may feel different. I also had to cook my meat a little longer due to my Godson. Overall, I would come back, however I'm more excited that the one in Irvine is opening soon, and you can bet I'll be there.

If you're craving a high-quality shabu shabu experience, Waygu Shabu House Mikiya is the place to be. Tucked inside Landmark Square Plaza, it might not catch your eye at first, but once you're inside, you're in for a serious treat. We were quickly greeted and able to secure a table (without reservations). Not many people seem to crave hot pot on a warmer day right before a holiday weekend. (_^.^_ ) The hostess will ask which level for AYCE -- there's 3 Tiers (Silver, Gold and Diamond) each providing selection of quality and quantity from a special entrees order like bone marrow toast. Service is consistently friendly, fast and attentive. The servers are knowledgeable about the cuts and broths, and they're happy to guide if you do don't know what to order. Like any AYCE, there's a time limit. The star of the show here is, of course, the Wagyu beef--beautifully marbled, melt-in-your-mouth tender, must pay premium and try the A5 Wagyu ribeye, brisket and the seafood platter. AYCE Feast Just Got Next-Level!!!! They offer a great selection of broths (I highly recommend the spicy miso) and the veggie and noodle sets are always super fresh. You order as much as you can eat but pace yourself. There's also a self-serve ice cream (gelato) chest to grab a sweet treat to top off your meal. Totally worth saving room for. TIP::It does get busy during peak hours, so a reservation is a smart idea. Or the very least get on the wait list.

Was my first time ever trying hot pot! I chose spicy miso and house soup and it did not disappoint! I loved that they had self serve rice, however, because of how much veggies I consumed, I got too full to go back for more rice. The meats were delicious although being the cheapest option. From what I understood, the more you pay, the higher the quality. Whenever I go back, I'm definitely going to try the higher qualities cause I can imagine it being worth it. As for the service, we had so many people help us from the host to the waitress and I think even a BOH member. Im so happy with how informative and patient everyone was. The ambiance is pretty nice, although the tables are almost adjacent to each other, it didn't really feel crowded. The music was pretty fun too!

Finally tried this place out! Now I need to try their other partner company, Chubby cattle! Different tiers will get you different types of meat and specialty dishes! Basic $45 AYCE American wagyu Silver $55 AYCE Australian/American and selection of 1 specialty dish (Like bone marrow, foie gras, wagyu nigiri, etc) Gold $78 AYCE Japanese (except limited selections for two A5 types), Australian and American, selection of 1 specialty dish. Diamond $98 AYCE EVERYTHING They also have minced wagyu and rice, wagyu curry, and ice cream at a self serve station. Items were hit and miss. HITS - A5 cuts for shabu: The best thing here, super good, definitely a lot softer and tastier than the Australian and American. - Bone marrow: Super soft and buttery - Foie Gras: Was very tasty, but the blueberry on top was not my cup of tea. MISS - Sushi: Sweet shrimp and lobster sashimi pieces were tough, and not too much flavor. - The wagyu Nigiri was also not as buttery soft as I was hopping for. - Wagyu Tartare was really good cold and flavorless. The service was top notch! They were constantly checking in on us to see if we wanted to order. For $100 person I expected all the food to be really good, however we had some misses, but overall I really enjoyed this place! Go ham on the A5!

Im not the biggest fan of hot pot but this place definitely changed my opinion. We discovered this place after a movie date earlier this month. And this month alone, my partner and I went twice. The first time around we order the silver set and the second time we brought his family and ordered the same set. The silver set is perfect. Quality meat with just enough sides. The broth is what won me over. You have the ability to split broth per pots. I like spicy so I chose the spicy miso while my partner choose his. If you're contemplating, I'd recommend at least trying it once. The price might seem steep but the quality of the food makes it worth it. Lots of parking space, great customer service and dim lighting which feels intimate.

This Shabu spot is hands-down the best I've ever had. From the cuts of Wagyu meat selection to the Shabu bar to the unlimited sides. The vegetables are fresh and crispy. You can't go wrong with anything you get on the menu. The atmosphere is perfect, clean, very modern with a hint of darkness. I would definitely give this place 5 stars! I recommend this establishment to anyone that loves prime cuts of meat.

High quality and amazing service. If you love shabu then you have to try Mikiya. We tried all the meats offered on the silver menu but the only one you need to eat is the Rib Eye. For the specialty dish the Bone marrow was a little too fatty for me but I know others really like it. The sweet shrimp sashimi on the other hand was my favorite dish there. Great sauce bar so you can cook up whatever sauce you want. Everything tasted good and the service was top notch! I will say with the time limit, I'm glad we got the silver menu. We wouldn't be able to truly enjoy any of the higher menus to make it worth the money. So if you go, for the most bang for your buck, I would say either the basic menu or the silver one!

The experience here is absolutely first rate and the quality of the ingredients will have you wanting to ask for more. The great thing is is that this place is all you can eat across many of the dishes note that some of the dishes that are offered, may only be limited, depending upon what tier or what level you order. Found the sauce bar also to be a really great addition to the dipping of the meat or the seafood and then also the available appetizers along with the ice cream was a nice touch. This place is lively and also has some of the best customer service with the servers being very helpful, allowing for customers to ask questions on the menu. This place is great for groups and also has some nice sake and beer selection. Parking is readily available in the lot outside of the restaurant which is located in a mini mall location. This place does get very popular so if you do get a chance to eat earlier or reserve on the waitlist , that is highly recommended.

Excellent experience and amazing food! Thank you Can for making our first time a great one!! Quality food lots of choices you won't go wrong, your taste buds will thank you! We got seated without reservations at a decent time about 20 minutes. It's all you can eat within a time period. Enough time we didn't need it all. We did the basic set and everything was tasty and so much food. It's a cool vibe inside!!

Pulled up at 9:23, minutes away from last call at 9:30. Ordered but lowkey thought we were gonna have to leave starving. Then this real one came through and was like "y'all want more food? we don't want you to leave hungry." like broooo bless your soul !!! give this man a raise frfr. We ordered more, finished our plates, and he even came back like "you want more?" and you know I couldn't refuse. We only paid for the regular tier but this man gave us item from an upgraded tier. Left full as heck. Mikiya never fails. Good energy always, never had a bad time. They don't take advantage of you either--you pay for what you drink and honestly it's like you get more than what you pay for. 10/10 would slide again.

After discovering Yumiyaki and loving it, I had to check out Mikiya -- especially once I found out it's from the same ownership and my Yumiyaki membership applied here too. I've now been twice, and both times were great. Mikiya feels more spacious than Yumiyaki, which makes for a more relaxed dining experience. The vibe is clean, modern, and a little more laid-back -- still busy, but not as tight. On my second visit, I came with extended family and we were seated in a small private room in the back for a party of 7, which was a really nice surprise. We had made our reservation far in advance and for an early time. While I've only been twice, it seems like it's always packed for dinner so reservations highly recommended if you can get it. As for the food -- no complaints. My first visit, I went all in with the Diamond set. The second time, we went with Silver, and honestly, even Silver was impressive. High-quality meats, great flavors, and sides that actually hold their own. You can tell they don't cut corners. Service was attentive but not overbearing both times. If you're a Yumiyaki fan, Mikiya delivers that same quality with a bit more breathing room. I'll definitely be back.

Such a gem! The wagyu here is top tier. Buttery, rich, and melts in your mouth. The entire dining experience felt premium from start to finish. I loved the attentive service and intimate ambiance. It's perfect for date night or a special celebration. The broth was flavorful and the plating of ingredients was beautiful and fresh. I highly recommend the A5 wagyu set. Totally worth it!

Really excellent quality and value, especially when you join the membership and can go about once per month to pass break even. Best to ask what might not be available or if anything is not operating properly, as it would affect your choices accordingly. Have had all the sets through Diamond, but find Silver hits the spot very well, unless you're hosting guests for their first Japan Wagyu experience (which is a bit wasteful as shabu-shabu melts all the valuable fat from the Wagyu and leaves it behind in the stock.) Anyway, service is generous and consistent, as they monitor carefully which things are 1 per customer unless charged extra, and there is that strict 90 minute cutoff when the raw ingredients stop arriving. For the size of the place, it's actually fairly noise free during the day, and only moderately noisy at nights. Makes for easy conversation without shouting. Nice range of blend-yourself dipping sauce ingredients and there's curry and soboro beef to fill your kids up. Most of the fried sides are also AYCE, but that's not the point of shabu-shabu. The Waitlist is important to pre-register as the number of tables are limited for 3 or more people. Couples or singles can generally be seated reasonably quickly, but this location does fill up. A great place to meetup and observe your mates food habits! There are a few boba and dessert places nearby if the complimentary ice cream isn't your thing. All good here!

TL;DR Ask for Daniel, THE BEST server. If you don't know what to do, he will do the rest. Trust the process. We ordered the Silver package. It was very filling and worth the price. Head over to the sauce bar for ponzu, sesame, chilis, and so much more. You might get tempted like I was to get the wagyu curry. The ice cream is next door with these flavors: strawberry, vanilla, matcha and coffee. Choose from four soup bases: House, Spicy Miso, Sukiyaki, and Tomato. I really like the tomato, but it isn't for everyone. Take advantage of all the delectable meat selections. I know there's chicken and stuff but go for the gold and load up on prime a5 wagyu. Love the assortment of veggies with the napa cabbage, tofu, corn, mushroom, money bag, and more. First time visit on 5/29/25

Came on mid afternoon on a Saturday. No wait at all. Was nicely and warmly greeted upon entry. We ordered the silver package. Food came out quick and everything was great. Service was attentive as well. Next time, we may just order the basic package as we are not big on seafood anyway. That's the main difference between basic and silver packages. Can't wait for the new Irvine location to open, it'll be closer to us.

Food - we got the gold tier and the wagyu brisket and ribeye was pretty good, but I think the full benefit of those items is kinda downplayed when mixed with broth, it's definitely better than regular shabu but it's kind of a 1 time thing because of the price to benefit ratio. A lot of the points is given in the novelty of it and also to get the full value from wagyu I feel like you actually have to know to what point to cook it until and that leaves a large margin of error for the average person. But it definitely tastes good. There's no peanut sauce but the other sauces they have are pretty good. I got the beef tartare which was honestly really flavorful and the texture was nice, there's avocado and lime in it as well which creates a well balanced flavor profile with sweet, savory, and slightly sour. Definitely well done for that. Service - we had to ask for tongs 4 times before they came which was kind of annoying and we had to ask for water twice, I feel if ur dropping $80-90 at a restaurant I expect them to have good service. Ambiance - ambiance is quite interesting and provides an upscale, modern aesthetic with Chinese accents.

I loved: Sweet shrimp I really liked: A5 Wagyu Chuck Ribeye A5 Wagyu Shoulder Cut Wagyu Brisket I liked: Fried chicken Abalone This was ok: Sweet buns Part of the Chubby restaurants, these are expensive #goodeats even with their Gold NFT but honestly kinda worth for the AYCE and excellent service. Daniel in particular took care of our table super well. Anything we wanted, he had it out instantly. The condiments bar was also well stocked except the eggs due to the shortage Overall, great place to eat on a cold day and even better if you got a friend with an NFT The ambiance was great, awesome lighting on the food, sound at a reasonable volume, lots of laughter throughout the night.

I'm so glad I finally got the chance to try Mikiya. We got the silver tier which was $48/pp before tax and gratuity, $140 for two people after taxes & 18% gratuity. The silver tier included the Australian wagyu, seafood platter, one speciality item per person, along with the American wagyu. The quality of the meat was amazing. The meats were so tender, specifically all of the Australian wagyu selections. The seafood tasted fresh and delicious! Their speciality item were delicious as well. We ordered the foie gras and Wagyu nigiri. Both didn't disappoint. As for their sides menu, we ordered their seaweed salad, spicy clams and sweet potato fries. All were good, except for the sweet potato fries, which didn't taste sweet. Service was excellent. The servers were constantly checking on our table and we never had to waive a server down to get service. They removed our empty meat plates quickly and were attentive. The restaurant had a modern feel to it, was (no surprise) Japanese themed and felt like we were at a restaurant in Japan. They had a self serve ice cream and sauce bar. The ice cream was yummy! Not too sweet. They had matcha, vanilla, strawberry & coffee flavor. They also had self serve Japanese Wagyu curry. I think this is my favorite shabu place by far, would definitely recommend!

This was our first time trying Mikiya Wagyu and we were very impressed! There is parking in the shared complex with other businesses (across the street from the mall). The restaurant reminded me of Japan- small and intimate. It did not look like there was a lot of seating inside. We tried the silver tier, sukiyaki & house broth. Ordered bone marrow & Wagyu nigiri as the special plate. We also ordered tempura & dumplings as appetizers. Our server was very attentive and always came up to ask if we wanted to order more. We were really impressed with the meat! The waiter recommended the Australian Wagyu. I can't tell you which was our favorite because we enjoyed all of them! It cooked very easily. We were also impressed with the seafood platter! The crab legs were delicious. The appetizer bar has rice, mince beef, curry, and sauces! The sauces were really good with the meat. The bone marrow on toast was delicious to end our meal. Oh, there is also ice cream to finish off! We left very full and happy.

We got the silver tier for lunch and thought everything was solid. Gf said not to get the seafood platter but I didn't listen so I had to eat most of it. And then she was so busy talking to her friends that there was a bunch of meat left on her plate and I had to eat that too. I had some sort of ayce kbbq or shabu 4 weekends in a row. I can't even look at sliced beef anymore. Place is bomb, service is great, would definitely come back.

Ive been to Mikiya in Temple City many times and tried this Cerritos location about 4/5 times. TC is a 5 but this place is more like 3.5-ish. Cerritos has a self serve bar for sauce, rice, curry, minced wagyu and ice cream. While this is convenient its not always the most sanitary. Service is very good however the food is absolutely NOT consistent. In TC when we get A5 chuck ribeye they come out exactly the same and even when its not the same cow the marbling is similar. Cerritos on the other hand we would order the same thing over and over and in the 5 orders each plate is different. The difference isnt small but a HUGE difference. Sometimes i question if we are even getting the same meat. There will sometimes be a big fat on the outside, or the middle and the taste isnt the same. Whether meat or seafood, it just wasnt consistent. I honestly wish they could be more consistent bec its very obvious to me they arent the same everytime. It really ruins the experience when i dont know what im getting. Overall i probably will try to avoid this location and stick to TC.

Came in Christmas evening and there was no wait at all! There are multiple menu tiers and we chose the silver tier. Our server was great and had a lot of recommendations for us. For a party of 2, we kept the platters of meat coming and plates were coming and going as quickly as we were eating them. I can see why it's so popular and it was nice to try a new shabu spot in the area. The meat is super tender and easy to eat. The appetizers are tasty and I also like that drinks and ice cream are all included!

This is my family's new favorite spot, and we're excited about the new Irvine location that's going to open soon! I definitely recommend going with the sukiyaki base. Granted, the other bases are pretty solid too, but sukiyaki hits different and I always end up only using that one in the end. Service has been attentive and friendly. The food quality is amazing. The meats are honestly all good, so I just order all of them every round. Be warned that the portion of the seafood platter is ginormous, so unless you have a large party, you might have a hard time finishing it if you're trying to maximize on the meats. Long story short, the food and experience are so great, and I can't wait to go back!!

Second time visiting. This time we tried the gold level. Not sure it's that much better than the silver. Need to go back and get the silver again for comparison. Service is good and friendly. Staff is helpful. Remember to other smaller portions of the seafood and not all at once. Nice interiors. But a little cramped. 90 minutes do not sound like a long time, but before last call we were already struggling to finish what was on the table.

We have been here 3 times and food was excellent. I decided to join the membership ($28)and got $14 off the bill. We picked the silver tier which came with a seafood platter. The meat and seafood were very fresh and tasty. Service was attentive. Our server made sure we continuously get our food because you only get 90 mins. The food would come out very quickly. They have a self serve sauce bar and ice cream station. We have not tried the diamond tier but we are satiated with the silver tier offering. Plenty of parking in the lot

2nd time there and I am absolutely in love. The service is spectacular, the food is delicious and everything is fresh. I am just hoping the prices stay the same and the service doesn't go downhill. When we were there they ran out of the raw egg and that was disappointing, but other than that it was really wonderful.

For a late night shabu fix, Mikiya is a decent option. You can choose from several tiers on the menu. We did the basic tier and it's good enough, imo. The seafood option and veggie plates are a nice addition to the meat variety. Service is quick and efficient. The broth is a little salty, and having shared pots is not as convenient as individual pots. It's a little cramped on the inside, near the self-serve station. Overall, decent shabu if you need a quick fix.

Walking into here feels like you've been transported into another world- the interior is so captivating. It almost feels like you're in a hidden alley on the streets of asia, I love how eccentric they made it feels in such a small space. We got the lowest AYCE option ($38pp) but there were 3 other tiers above us, A5 wagyu being the highest. All of the meats were solid thought, they all tasted very high quality and I loved how well sliced they all were as well. Between the spicy miso and the tomato broth we got, we all definitely preferred the spicy miso- and it's not as spicy at all. The only downside is that there is a small dipping sauce area that got overcrowded really quick, and no veggie bar- but the veggie platter that's pictured is included and I believe it's unlimited. Service was very quick and friendly, and I love how reasonably priced everything was, as prior to this I thought it was a super boujee place. Will have to come back to try their higher grade meats!

The shabu shabu here is good, but not as great as Yumiyaki! The broth was not as flavorful as some shabu shabu restaurants I have been to. However, the meat quality makes up for it. I also really enjoyed their ama ebi sushi - very sweet and fresh. Something I disliked about this particular location is that the sauce bar + dessert is located near the entrance of the restaurant. It makes it very inconvenient to maneuver around the crowd of people in the front. It's also very tiny and the line can get pretty long. Also the ice cream was very bad, all the flavors tasted so artificial and extremely sweet.

Located in a food business center, houses this great upscale shabu-shabu spot with refined ambiance and high-quality wagyu cuts. The dining area is dark, but light enough to enjoy your food. We ordered from the Gold choice, it is very good, and has thick cuts, that are very tasty. Seafood was fresh and the dessert were amazing. Always on top of making sure we are not waiting around. They are genuinely kind and very attentive, I really appreciated that. I would definitely come back here for that alone.

Mikiya Waygu Shabu House is an absolute must-try for any Shabu lover! This restaurant is located across the street from Cerritos Mall and is quite popular for a reason; the Shabu here is impeccable! I had the pleasure of visiting this establishment with my boyfriend and we were both blown away by the quality of the meats, service, and just our overall experience. The service here was top-notch as the staff were very attentive and helpful in explaining their menu choices. They offer different tiers of the AYCE meat selection but we were quite content with their basic selection which ranges at $45 per person. We both ordered the spicy miso broth along with Waygu chuck eye and Wagyu brisket cuts. Without needing to ask, the server provided two of each meats and a seasonal platter of veggies to start off. The veggies here were yummy and I love how they offered corn on the cob & arugula. They have a condiment station near the entrance where you can pick as much sauce as you'd like, however I was personally more hooked on the spicy Thai chili. By our second round of Waygu meats we were quite stuffed though we couldn't help but continue chowing down on the tender meats and scrumptious broth. The appetizers are also included in the AYCE menu and I definitely recommend the shrimp tempura! I must also mention that there is a 90 minute limit on the AYCE Shabu so don't be afraid to stack up on the meats while you can. The environment is dimly lit and romantic which makes it the perfect place for a date night. The seating arrangement is a little awkward though as the inside of the restaurant is small so you'll be more than likely sitting alongside other parties. Overall Mikiya Waygu Shabu House is a 10/10 in my book and I can't wait to visit again. I'd absolutely recommend this delicious Shabu spot to anyone in the area!

Came here for my birthday on a Thursday. Might've just been because of graduations, but it was packed all the way till closing. We were served by Amber! and she was great. She was very personable and accommodating yet professional. You're lucky if you get her. The inside vibes are very nice. Intimate lighting and ambiance. It's pretty upscale for an all you can eat. Only note is the tables are kind of small. But even then they give you side tables. The seafood platter that comes with the silver package is amazing. Fresh scallops, abalone, oysters, and fish, with snow crab legs and shrimp. Vegetables were standard and the Australian Wagyu meat was decent quality for ayce. The specials that come with the silver were delicious as well. Would recommend. Again Amber did amazing.

Found this gem on Yelp while I was looking for AYCE Hot Pot while visiting from San Jose. **I just realized we also have one in Santa Clara and it's been on my bookmark list. But it's okay, this one sealed the deal for me now I'm excited to eat it again in a few months (course for birthday celebrations). Let me tell you ~ first impressions are everything to me! The nice host (a girl) greeted us and quickly sat us down on a Tuesday evening (it was packed but no wait). Then we met our funny, welcoming waiter / host Daniel. He asked if we've been there before and we said no. He gave us a break down of the different Wagyu experience (the menu). My boyfriend and I went with the silver. Onto the broth ~ in my opinion when most hot pots does the spilt broth there's always one that I like more, in this case was the spicy miso. We got the house broth and it tasted so plain I didn't touch it after I tried it. So aside from the house broth that in my opinion I didn't like, the entire silver menu was to die for and so delicious. Ate everything! Definitely going to recommend my friends to try this place when they visit. I didn't get any of the other staff's names but once Daniel went on his break; there was another waitress / host helping us (a guy). Both always checked on us considering every table was filled. All the staff need a raise lol. I really enjoyed the experience but the customer service really impressed me and paired well with the food! I'll definitely be back and keep this hot pot at the top of my list !

Food was amazing! It's a quite a bit on the pricier side (we got gold menu), but it was delicious, especially their sukiyaki broth. Family did not like the house broth as it was a little bland to our taste, but the spicy miso and sukiyaki saved it for us. (I don't like sukiyaki broth usually, but this place change my mind entirely). The broth was super rich and flavorful with the right amount of sweetness. Served was super attentive and helpful in ordering (Van P.).

This has been hyped for me since it opened. I thought it was good, but would have enjoyed options for thicker cuts of wagyu to really appreciate the flavors. Still for AYCE hot pot, it was fun! Food: We got the Gold AYCE combo. The wagyu nigiri was super soft but a little cold by the time I ate it. Would order again. Meats were all soft and tender. I honestly couldn't tell the difference between the Japanese and Australian wagyu cuts since the cuts are so thin. Service: Was great! Plates were cleared as soon as they emptied. The staff was super attentive; we never had to flag anyone down to ask for anything. We did notice that on our last set of plates (our last call) they gave us three meat strips per plate instead of four. Ambiance: I sat on the booth side and felt like I had steam blowing in my face the whole meal. However, I didn't smell like hot pot at all when I got home, so kudos to the air filtration system. The restaurant is located in a busy strip mall so there's a lot of parking, but it can get super crowded during meal times.

What a great experience, food quality and service was top tier, we ordered as much meat as we could to fill up our stomaches. Appetizers and sides also did not disappoint. I think the seafood platter was okay, I could live without it, but definitely enjoyed eating all the meat options available to order

Insanely impressed with this place!! Our waiter (didn't catch his name sadly) was so sweet and patient with us even though we were a large and hectic group lol. Since it was our first time here, he just brought out everything for us to try! We got the diamond set and it was def worth it. We all got the spicy miso and house broth, spicy miso was my favorite! The waiter also gave us a side of the miso paste to add to our broth when it was getting low. All of the side dishes that were included in the diamond set were great. Especially loved the bone marrow and wagyu tartare. We were recommended by staff to put the bone into the broth when we were done for extra flavor, and it was a game changer!! I didn't care much for the foie gras. Meats and seafood were amazing as expected. Our favorites were the abalone and beef shoulder! The veggie platter was pretty meh but who's coming for that anyways :)

Price in comparison to quality is fair. The ice cream was also a plus and when we went the service was good. Really the only downside is that the sauces aren't great - the ponzu one of the 3 or 4 options they had was really tart - in fact most of the sauces were pretty tart making it hard to dip/stomach the meat. ALSO- server informed me that there is NO MSG in the broth .... I get massive migraines when eating msg and found myself a little dizzy here so MSG was in something lol Seafood and optimus salad were standout - pretty fresh and delicious. Meat cuts were nice and thick and the appetizers were also good. Overall a solid experience.

Made reservations a week before for lunch time on a weekend through Yelp, can't get easier than that! Service was super, didn't feel rushed at the start but be aware of the 90 minute time limit! We got the silver level and everything was delicious. It was smaller than I expected inside, but we never felt cramped even for a party of 8! We are definitelyyyy coming back to try this place again and might have to splurge and try some of that Japanese wagyu!

This is an AYCE shabu place with Wagyu meats. I was very impressed by quality of meats served here. Came with a group of 4 around 5:15pm on a Sunday night and we waited about 20 mins before getting seated. Inside lis really clean with booths and nice seating. I wouldn't recommended coming with a big party but it's still doable. Service was fantastic. Our waiter was very knowledgeable and broke down the menu options easily for us to understand. We went with the Japanese set option. Constantly ordered all the Japanese Wagyu meats. All the Wagyu mess were melt in your mouth. Didn't have a bad plate of meat at all. Broths were delicious as well - spicy miso and house blend were perf. There is a 90 min lit however, your meat orders come out very fast so you'll be full by the time your limit is up. They have their own make your own sauce station with rice, curry, minced beef, plus an ice cream section as well. Overall, I was very happy to finally try Mikiya. It's been in my list for awhile and it didn't disappoint!

AYCE (all you can eat) Shabu worth the splurge! You get the hot pot shabu experience along with many side dishes. The Japanese wagyu is by far superior to the Australian and American wagyu, it's more tender. If you get the gold option you get mostly Australian Wagyu but you get a limited selection (like 3 dishes or so) of the Japanese Wagyu cuts to try. I was just as happy with the Australian Wagyu along with the tasty veggies and seafood platter. I recommend getting spicy miso broth and sukiyaki broth along with the yuzu and sesame dips they have at the bar. Also try the fry mini bun with condensed milk dip, it's a must! It's basically like a donut. Tip: If you want to skip long waits it's best to dine during lunch hours. We didn't have any wait during lunch. Otherwise it gets busy during the weekend and dinner. They have a waitlist on yelp, so make sure to join that during busy hours. This place is so good and the service is prompt and attentive. Shabu is the ultimate comfort food that will make your tummy happy and full.

I thoroughly enjoyed my experience here. You can tell that all the ingredients are of quality. The soup broth was decent. I like that they had a bar that you can go to grab some minced pork stirfry and extra rice. The service was consistent and good. they were quick to get us what we needed when we asked the ambience is nice cozy minimalist. I may consider becoming a member to get a better deal on the meals because I see myself going to eat there often. Thanks for the experience. This is my second location that I've gone to. I've gone to the one in Alhambra area before this one.
