2023-11-05 05:01:08Do not recommend this restaurant! ! ! First of all, the service is very poor. Their reservation system is useless. I made a reservation at the open table for 19:45 and arrived at 19:30 to complete the check-in. However, I still waited for more than half an hour. It started from 19:45. After waiting for more than half an hour, I was very angry! I was dropped into the queue of guests without a reservation. Terrible management! There were very few waiters. They did not take away the empty plates or add soup to our pots. They ignored us until our pots were almost dry. In the end, we added water ourselves. I don’t understand their service. How can you have the nerve to charge service fees from guests? They also openly charge guests an 18% service fee. I don’t know why an AYCE restaurant needs to charge a mandatory service fee. This is really disgusting, and their service is very poor! Let’s talk about the dishes. The vegetables are quite fresh and replenished in a timely manner. The ice cream after the meal was well received. It is a very high-quality ice cream. But the meat is not so good. We ordered three kinds of beef. The problem is that the quality of the meat is average. There will be a lot of dirt left in the soup after cooking. The meat is also average and feels old, not very tender. Meat. Overall everything is poor, especially the service! Very poor service and the forced service charge is disgusting.

2023-11-15 20:40:30I came here on the recommendation of a friend and had a very delicious meal. Luckily, I was able to seated right away without having to wait(at 11:45am). A friendly server explained how to use the hotpot and once the hotpot and meat were set up, I brought vegetables, fish balls, noodles, etc. from the salad bar. You can put it in and eat it. There is curry in the salad bar, and I enjoyed it. The sauce called taberu rayu was especially delicious. It was really good to put a lot of sesame seeds and green onions on top of the sauce and eat it with meat and rice. I ate at lunchtime and tried 4 types of meat. Among them, the beef short plate was the most delicious. If you want to sit in an additional booth seat, it would be a good idea to make a reservation in advance and keep in mind that an 18% tip is automatically added.

2023-07-06 04:41:38All you can eat hot pot with high quality meats. They have a large selection of in-house drinks as well. Price is on the higher end with 18% tip automatically applied.While the quality of the meat still remains high, feel like the variety of meats have decreased from when I went few years ago. Their beef belly and udon salad are my favorites. Wish they had a larger sauce bar.It tends to get pretty crowded here, so reservation is needed on weekends. Ambiance can be loud due to the people. Service can be slow or forgotten sometimes.

2023-09-14 15:17:06Never been to this location before decided to come here because it was closest to me. It was nice. There was a good size parking lot and it’s similar to other locations in style and meets expectations as usual.Everything was perfect. Staff was friendly and helpful, meat qualify was great, refreshments bar is always good, and they have curry and rice available near all the vegetables which is my favorite. Definitely coming back next rainy day for some more hot pot.

2023-07-01 01:24:10Taste :4.5/5Environment: 4.3/5Service:4.3/5This place is a paradise for hot pot lovers, offering unlimited servings of high-quality meats, vegetables, noodles, rice, sauces, and desserts for a reasonable price.We chose the shabu-shabu option, which comes with two types of broth: original and spicy. The broth was flavorful and aromatic, and we could adjust the heat level to our liking. The meat selection was impressive, featuring lean beef, fatty beef, beef belly, beef chuck eye, kurobuta pork shoulder, pork belly, chicken breast, and chicken thigh. All the meats were thinly sliced and tender, and they cooked quickly in the broth.Another highlight of the meal was the **udon salad**, which was a refreshing contrast to the hot pot.

2023-11-21 02:28:05Meats are good, veggie selection feels adequate. 18% mandatory service fee even with a party of 1, unreasonable for a self serve place.

2023-12-03 20:47:35Made a reservation for Sunday lunch for a party of three and they were not accommodating at all. We pointed out that one of the members in our party has food allergies and requested for two pots instead of one. They said they can’t offer that to us even though over half of the restaurant was empty. I don’t understand why they kept suggesting us to use one pot after I clearly told them that the food allergy can cause life threatening issues. Maybe the receptionist needs to learn what allergy means.

2022-07-23 07:57:40AYCE hot pot and boba??? Dont walk... but RUN to this restaurant! Its possibly my new favorite lunch spot for shabu shabu. The time limit is perfect and leaves you feeling very satisfied. Despite everything being all you can eat and drink, I actually didnt feel overly stuffed or gross after!There is seriously so much variety! Its not only hot pot, but theres good quality Japanese curry and salads too. I was seriously blown away by the quality of everything. All of the vegetables seemed fresh and the beef was beautifully marbled. Although very fatty, I highly recommend the Beef Short Plate!The All You Can Drink actually really impressed me too! My favorites were the Jasmine Milk Tea and the Passionfruit Green Tea. Very fragrant and addicting! Good quality tea!!! I dont recommend the Oolong Tea though... very watered down.If youre still in need of some dessert after 90 minutes of AYCE... they also offer very unique ice cream flavors to finish off your meal! I recommend the Blueberry Cheesecake Ice Cream.The only thing that really fell short for me was the Sukiyaki broth. It would grow seriously SALTY the more I would drink the broth. I would have to ask for water to dilute it as time passed. I think Ill try a different broth next time.

2023-04-05 03:04:37Mo-Mo-Paradise is a Japanese restaurant located in Rowland Heights, CA. It is a popular spot for all-you-can-eat shabu-shabu and sukiyaki. The restaurant has a large selection of meats, seafood, and vegetables to choose from. The broths are also very good, and there are a variety of sauces to choose from to customize your meal.I recently visited Mo-Mo-Paradise and had a great experience. The food was delicious, the service was excellent, and the atmosphere was lively and fun. I would definitely recommend Mo-Mo-Paradise to anyone looking for a great shabu-shabu or sukiyaki experience.One thing to note is that Mo-Mo-Paradise no longer has self-serve boba. This is a bit of a disappointment, as the boba was one of my favorite things about the restaurant. However, the other aspects of the meal were still excellent, so I would still recommend Mo-Mo-Paradise to others.If I were to give feedback to the owner of Mo-Mo-Paradise, I would suggest bringing back the self-serve boba.

2022-12-22 23:27:27One of the best shabu shabus in town. Excellent service with high quality food. The fresh market is an all you can eat bar with lots of veggies, different style tofu, delicious sauces and great meat choices. The tea bar has 4 different teas with a couple of boba selections. Will definitely be back for more. I highly recommend that you arrive as soon as it opens or make a reservation as it gets crowded.
