" I was skeptical about trying out shabu shabu, but Mokkoji made me a fan! The concept of cooking at the table was entertaining. The variety of meat options and the quality were impressive. I sampled the toro, which melted in my mouth. I will say that while the food is great, the prices can add up quickly, so prepare for that! Still, it’s definitely worth it for a special occasion or when you want to treat yourself. " (*Curated Review*)

" Visiting Mokkoji for the first time with friends was amazing! The setup is awesome, and they really captured the essence of traditional shabu shabu. Each meal starts with a delicious broth, and the choice of meats is spot on! I loved being able to customize my meal with vegetables and sauces. The wait wasn’t too bad either, though I noticed that it might not be suitable for larger groups. Reservations might help for peak times. Overall, I'm very impressed by the experience!

" As a shabu shabu enthusiast, I had to check out Mokkoji. The marinated meat options stole the show! The toro and spicy pork broth are highly recommended. While the prices are on the higher side, the generous portions and delicious food make it worth every penny. The restaurant is a bit trendy, so expect some noise, especially on weekends. I'd definitely bring friends along for the experience—so much fun sharing a pot! " (*Curated Review*)
