Shabu Lin

Really reasonable price and excellent environment and lot of available parking place and very clean

This place is so under rated! I drive all the way from Whittier, CA to eat at this place! It is AMAZING!!!!!! I highly recommend this place. There food is DYNAMIC so many options and very filling. I will be a life long customer of this place.

Shabu Lin in Arcadia offers a dining experience that falls short of its promise. Despite our anticipation for trying this restaurant, our visit on Chinese New Year's Eve left us underwhelmed. The lack of crowd did not compensate for the slow service. With a premium price of $39 per person, we expected a higher standard of quality, especially in terms of variety and freshness. However, the meat selection, though featuring good cuts like wagyu beef cap meat, was disappointingly scant. The buffet offerings, particularly the veggies and seafood, lacked quality and were not consistently replenished. Additionally, the fruit and cooked food options were nearly non-existent. Overall, the experience did not justify the cost, and we won't be returning to Shabu Lin in the future.

Great hotpot with good selection of food that you can order and pick from like buffet. The place is bright and clean. Staffs are friendly and responsive. This is now our favorite hotpot place. We will definitely come back again!

Pretty good hot pot place and it's away from the business of the Arcadia Mall. We went for lunch on a Friday so the lunch prices were awesome. If you've never been to a hot pot place this is how this one works. They seat you at your table and you have individual soup stations at your table. Pick your broth and pick your protein. I initially I thought you could only pick one protein but the waiter explained that you can order all of them on their list depending on lunch or dinner. Then head over to the buffet table of vegetables, noodles, all the items to toss in your broth. The steam rice and sauce station is also self serve. I ordered the miso broth and it was delicious.

Somehow I just like the name of this restaurant very much. It reminds me one of my stupid friend. Gotta visit some time in the future.
