A nice clean quiet place to feast on shabu shabu style dining. All you can eat options are available for a reasonable price. Children 10 and under enjoy half off. Open for lunch and dinner.

Amazing flavorful entrees! Obviously a top notch chef. The chicken- eggplant stir fry is delicately seasoned and so flavorful, tender, and cooked to perfection. We also had the fish and the fried rice - unique and perfectly seasoned. The service is excellent and the atmosphere is perfect, with relaxing music and great ambience. We are so lucky!

A neighbor recommended this place and we weren't disappointed. Food was great. The staff was short handed but still delivered excellent service. Because of the short staff, the menu was limited, which was a bummer since many of the off limit entrées looked delicious. I saw the hostess bussing tables and she even took our order while our server was busy with other customers. A reservation is recommended. We waited about 10 min for a table since we didn't have a reservation. Once this place opens up to full capacity, I really hope they hire more staff and open up the menu. We'll definitely be back then.

Food was good especially since I made it lol. Priced right since it was all you can eat. The place was a little warm because you are around a stove. I would go back.

Great find. Nice wide selection of options to have and portions are very generous. Had the Pepper Steak and was not disappointed. Son had Chicken Katsu which was very nicely done.

Known for all-you-can-eat shabu shabu menu, Cafe Asia offers a variety of items, mostly Japanese. Tonkotsu ramen was tasty and noodles cooked just right. The soup could be served hotter and was a bit thinner in comparison to ramen served in Japan. Garlic tonkatsu was a large, generous serving and slightly salty. Otherwise, food was tasty and served quickly. Staff was pleasant and observed appropriate mask protocols and social distancing.

Okay ironically—I wouldn’t come here for their Shabu Shabu (although it was AYCE all-you-can-eat) because it didn’t wow me with their small selection. BUT THEIR ENTREES all looked delicious and we tried 4 dishes and they all blew me away! We had their slow cooked ribs, szechuan stir fry eggplant with chicken, popcorn chicken, Clams.. and everything were very well seasoned! Definitely would come back when I’m in the area again. PS- you’re gonna have to order side Rice; can’t let a single drop of SAUCE go to waste ;)

Definitely a new experience for me! You order off a menu on cards where you pick what veggies, meats, sides, and pupus (appetizers) you want brought to you for each "round" or you can tell the server to bring what you would like each round. They have small heated stovetop like cookers that you share with the person across from you, and pick your broth that you will cook/boil your food in - definitely a different style of food for me/us, I suggest getting sauces and some condiments from the station up front if you like your dishes to have spices or flavors as there's not any pre seasoning before you boil yourself in the pot. I added some onions, garlic and garlic shoyu to the broth to help flavor it up and then because I love super seasoned food dipped everything in the garlic shoyu. We had the all you can eat special too, by the way, with dessert being either mango sorbet or fried ice cream. I actually enjoyed the experience, would try again! Can also order off the menu dishes that are made versus you making yourself. The staff was also super helpful and friendly and our server was such a sweetheart and so helpful!
