my fav shabu shabu!

Whenever I long for SHABU SHABU, I come to this place. The beautifully sliced marble rib eye and bunch of fresh vegetables, attentitive cute asian waitresses, a semi-private booth, I just feel comfortable and relaxed in this joint. The most of locals are BBQ followeres, but SHABU SHABU is my high recommendation.
- Pros: service, quality
- Cons: small

Love yakiniku- especially for the all you can eat bbq Mondays through Thursdays. The ladies who work here are so nice & helpful- especially with questions about portions. They always remember me and my hubbie as well. The food is fresh and delicious. Very addictive! Awesome neighborhood establishment- you have to check it out. If in doubt, make a reservation.

how can you believe anything written here, if most of the reviews are written by the same iliterate liar, who is trying to pump up the restaurant? "I and my friends, I and my girlfriend, I and my friends, I and my boyfriend, I and myself, I and etc..." don't like the distortion of reviews wriitten favorably by one person.... who could it have been?
- Pros: avg food, can hide here, hhhmmmm
- Cons: tiny, cave-like, avg food
FANTASTIC WAITSTAFF

I had heard about the all you can eat bbq and decided to check it out. Myself and another patron ate 3 huge plates filled with meat and veggies. THe waitresses were so attentive and offered to bring out more food as soon as they saw that the plate was emptying. The food was fresh adn well flavored!

I went last night with my boyfriend and had a good time. It was slightly too dark to see whether the meat was fully cooked or not but the service was attentive and friendly without being too much. The food itself was pretty good although it's not the best of meats but for 25 all you can eat it's a great deal. It's a pity they dont serve side dishes like traditional korean/japanese restaurants or that they give free vegetables to go with the meat. It was basically a lot of meat after meat with a bowl of rice. Pretty good place to go if you're really hungry!
- Pros: service, price
- Cons: small space, dark interior
Don't miss this place!

If you are a meat lover, you can't miss this Yakiniku (BBQ) joint. Not only they serve ALL YOU CAN EAT BBQ, including Sirloin, Short Ribs, Lambs, Chickens and Porks with delicious dipping sauce, the Shabu Shabu is also very the best in town though it's a bit more pricey. I'm glad that I found this place.
- Pros: Value, meat, wait staff
- Cons: small
I'm coming back! Ding Dong!

I had a friend's birthday party here at Juju. We had a such a great time. We ate and ate AYCE BBQ untill we were about explode. The service was upbeat and fast, the waitress were so cute. They gave us a pretty birthday card at the end enclosed with a polaroid they took of us. It was very nice of them for caring us like that. Thank you. I'm definitely coming back again.
- Pros: value, service

the best shabu

This place stands out by its far superior shabu shabu. The high quality of meats and fresh fresh vegetables, and I love the combination of sauces they offer is just right. Eventhough JuJu keeps a low key, it's packed everytime I go, mostly by neighbor followers. The dinning room is so small but cute and intimate. I go back more often for shabu shabu which keeps me warm in cold season.
- Pros: warm atmosphere, fresh food, value
Glad We Went In

My BF wanted to try Korean for his 28th bday, so we chose this based on Citysearch reviews. After seeing a dingy sign and two bums begging for change at their door, we had some trepidation, but went in anyway. Glad we did! Great deal for all you can eat BBQ. $23 a person, grill it right there. The meat keeps coming til you feel like you will explode. Short tables tho, my knees are sore. I always check out bathrooms too, and this one was clean and actually smelled nice.
Might be fun with a group, altho there are only a few tables! Would go again!
- Pros: friendly service, good deals
