I organised a large group of us to go and I was impressed with the quality of the food and their ability to deal with the demands of split bills, late arrivals and picky eaters.

The menu is different to other Japanese restaurants and focuses on steam boats. I usually don't eat these as they tend to be flavourless but Mr Shabu Shabu's was tasty and great quality. I recommend this place to friends.

Approximate cost: $18

A good dining experience. The food is tasty, alright for a Japanese restaurant in Australia. The service is really slow though. On the up-side, it was probably a sign that they do everything from scratch which is nice. We did however have a misorder here and ended up having to pay for the dish we didn't even order. Overall, a good place to grab a bite with friends.
