This place has high ratings on TripAdvisor and is very popular among foreign tourists. The tables are filled with people speaking different languages. The staff even greeted us in English at our table. They serve pork and chicken shabu-shabu. The pork was delicious with its tasty fat, I could eat endless amounts of it. The chicken, on the other hand, used lean cuts which was good quality but a bit lacking in flavor for me. The atmosphere of the restaurant is not very luxurious, so I think it's great for casual gatherings with friends.

I ordered the volume-filled table and the individual hot pot set with partitions from other customers for lunch. It mainly consisted of pork, but also came with chicken. There were plenty of vegetables, and I enjoyed them with ponzu and miso sauce. The portion was generous and the food was delicious. However, when I visited, the atmosphere made me feel like they were not accepting customers anymore, even though there was still more than 30 minutes until closing time. This restaurant offers a complimentary drink for JAF members, but there was no explanation given, and I only realized it at the time of payment, which was already past closing time, so I couldn't receive the service. Although my stomach was satisfied, I don't really want to go to a restaurant with such poor customer service.

I made a reservation and visited around 11:00 am on Saturday. I had the pork shabu-shabu set meal for one person for 890 yen. It was fun to have shabu-shabu alone! The meat was delicious, and the fried tofu was fluffy and juicy. Kimchi was also included, and the table condiments were plentiful.

Visited in March 2020 with a rating of 3.05 on Tabelog. I had the pork shabu set meal for 790 yen (tax included) with free kimchi. The lunch deal was great, and I opted for the pork shabu set meal. The table had ponzu, pepper, Andes salt, and chili pepper. The sesame sauce was brought separately with rice, kimchi, and green onions. The hot pot included tofu, fried vegetables, shungiku, mushrooms, meatballs, napa cabbage, konjac, bean sprouts, and shirataki noodles. The pork was decent quality and I enjoyed dipping it in the sesame sauce. The ponzu was refreshing with a citrusy flavor. The kimchi was mild and I had a second helping with vegetables. Overall, it was a good value for a casual pork shabu meal.

Brand pork delicious shabu-shabu ♪. Special pork shabu-shabu course ¥2480. A shop with good access from Karasuma Station and Shijo Station!!!! The shop is on the second floor!!!! The interior of the shop was almost reserved for a group on this day, so we couldn't relax too much, but the staff came to check on the pot frequently, so even two shabu-shabu beginners could enjoy it deliciously and have fun ¨̮♡︎. <Omoni's kimchi><Special pork shabu-shabu> The domestically produced pork with plenty of umami is shabu-shabu with the moderate fat "Awa pork" ( *ˊᵕˋ)✩︎‧₊ The meat is not too thick but very tender and sweet ❤︎. The texture is also good and the meat is delicious (੭ु ›ω‹ )੭ु⁾⁾♡︎ <Chicken meatballs><Meatballs><Assorted vegetables> Various types of vegetables!!!! (Chinese cabbage, lettuce, komatsuna, mizuna, enoki mushrooms, shimeji mushrooms, bean sprouts, shindamaki, harumaki, konjac) <Kyoto tofu><Special egg noodles> The Japanese-style soup noodles go surprisingly well!!!! The egg noodles are slimy and irresistible₍₍⁽⁽(ી( ･◡︎･ )ʃ)₎₎⁾⁾ <Zosui> I was surprised that there is a second floor, but zosui mixed with egg and seaweed is the best!!!!. Dip the meat and Kyoto vegetables in the soup full of umami, mix with leeks, and eat with original ponzu sauce (੭ु ›ω‹ )੭ु⁾⁾♡︎ The authentic chanko-nabe supervised by a former sumo wrestler is definitely delicious!!!! The finale is the special egg noodles in original soup ❤︎ The ponzu sauce and sesame dressing are also original and very delicious❣︎ Especially the ponzu sauce is sweet and sour, suitable for everyone's taste ¨̮♡︎. I was really healed by the kind Taiwanese staff who brought out the ponzu sauce that originally comes with it and then asked, "Would you like sesame dressing too?" ( *ˊᵕˋ)✩︎‧₊ Recommended for the price and the upcoming season!!!! We realized that we have reached the age to go to shabu-shabu restaurants and such, and it was a day to be deeply moved ( ；∀；).

The restaurant faces Takakura Street and is close to Karasuma Station, so the location is good. Just before entering, a mysterious foreigner-like person asks if you have a ticket. It seems like they are doing some kind of catching. I declined because I didn't want to get involved and entered the store. Inside, the layout is quite spacious, but the actual atmosphere is closer to a casual izakaya than the images posted by the restaurant. The staff who approached me were clearly foreigners. Although there is an all-you-can-eat course on Tabelog, it is not listed on the menu in the restaurant. Ordering the course while showing Tabelog was difficult as Japanese didn't seem to be understood well. The ordering mistakes that followed were frequent. The chicken breast meat was very tough, while the pork loin was tough as well. The pork belly was decent. The sesame sauce, ponzu, and salt condiments were good. It is recommended to eat the pork belly while rotating the condiments. Among the menu items, the chicken meatballs were not bad. The cabbage was mostly the core part. The impression of semi-frozen pork loin meat was memorable. Obviously, it was tough meat. Also, be aware that there is a large amount of bean sprouts hidden underneath the meat that appears to be piled up. While there is no problem with all-you-can-eat, it is important to note this. While eating, about 80% of the customers were foreigners. It seemed like they were writing comments on TripAdvisor before leaving, inside the restaurant. When asked about the bill of a group of three who seemed to have written comments, the amount was surprisingly cheap. I do not know the relationship there, so I cannot say anything, but it left me feeling very uneasy. Since you cannot expect any kind explanations of the menu for Japanese customers, it would be good to be able to speak Korean, Chinese, or English fluently.

There are many foreign tourists in this restaurant. The customer base and atmosphere are not suitable for noisy dates. It's perfect for going with a large group because you can eat all-you-can-eat shabu-shabu and other ingredients. It's not noisy at Kagonoya Shijo Karasuma, but when you want to eat all-you-can-eat shabu-shabu, this is the place. The Awa pork is delicious.

The food was delicious and reasonably priced. I added beef, which was also tasty. The staff were friendly and welcoming!

The hot pot looked delicious. The staff were generous. The seating was cramped and uncomfortable.

Pork shabu-shabu, decently delicious.

The restaurant is located on the second floor and you have to climb an external staircase to get there. The place is spacious and relaxing, with a slightly upscale feel compared to a typical izakaya. The staff, although athletic, are very friendly and welcoming. Today, I tried the Awa pork and Awa chicken course (3,280 yen). If you don't need the Awa chicken, there is also a 2,280 yen course available, so the prices are not too high. The menu includes 12 items such as cucumber and hijiki simmered dish, pork shabu-shabu (loin and belly), Awa chicken, chicken meatballs, meatballs, shrimp dumplings, vegetable rolls, mochi skewers, assorted vegetables, Kyoto tofu, ramen, and dessert (yuzu sherbet and syrup fruits). The meat is delicious, but the other hot pot ingredients are a bit small and don't stand out much. Personally, I think the meat, plenty of vegetables, and tofu are enough. However, the ponzu and sesame sauces were delicious, especially the ponzu which was sweet and tangy. The Andes salt for the meat was also tasty. The ramen at the end, with just the hot pot broth, was surprisingly good with a Japanese-style soup and corn that complemented well. The boiled egg was a nice touch. I left feeling full and satisfied. I recommend trying this place, especially in the upcoming season.

The other day, I had the opportunity to use this restaurant for a long-awaited meal with friends. The interior of the restaurant is lovely, with tables right near the entrance. The atmosphere is international, with customers and staff from various countries, mainly neighboring ones. As for the main dish, the pork shabu-shabu, it exceeded my expectations in terms of taste and presentation, thanks to the high-quality ingredients they use. If you're thinking of giving it a try, go for it.

Three of us visited the restaurant and used the 4500 yen course for pork and chicken with all-you-can-drink. The interior of the restaurant had long, narrow table seats with partitions between them, so we didn't really notice the other tables. However, sitting down felt a bit cramped as the partitions were right behind us. The tables were simple and rustic, rather than luxurious. We waited for the pot to warm up on the IH heater placed on the table. Meanwhile, various dishes of vegetables, meat, chicken, dumplings, and skewers were brought to us. We had to remind the staff about our initial beer order, but after that, they were prompt. The staff helped us prepare the ingredients before we could put them in the pot, which was nice. They also provided kimchi and sesame sauce, with refills available. The pork, the main dish, was very delicious and worth the price. However, the chicken and skewers didn't stand out as much. The vegetables were tasty when combined with the soup. After finishing the meal, they served ramen as a finale, followed by dessert. The ramen paired well with the soup from the pot and was satisfying. Overall, the staff was friendly, and the food was delicious, making it a recommended restaurant that won't disappoint.

After our tennis circle friends finished their lesson, we had a girls' night out here. We were treated to various dishes, but the coach's recommendation was definitely the Awa Pork shabu-shabu. The pork was from the Awa Pork brand in Tokushima, and the sweetness and deliciousness of this meat exceeded its price. We had Ebisu beer to go along with the pork. This powerful combination of pork and Ebisu made for a wonderful dinner!

I ordered the daily special bento box, which was only one coin, and requested delivery. The menu included shrimp tempura, quail skewers, chicken cabbage rolls, and Chinese glass noodles. Even with extra rice, it was still just one coin. I'm a bit worried if they can make a profit with delivery. Originally, it seems to be a pork shabu-shabu restaurant in Kitashinchi. I plan to go there to try the shabu-shabu. The cost performance seems to be very good.
