Nabe

Perfect don katsu and curry! I will try Wagyudon next time!
This will be listed as my favorite restaurant from now on.

Really nice Shabu place, but call ahead to make a reservation as it tends to get really busy. Only gripe is there is no all you can eat option!

Very good food and authentic cuisine. We loved every item in the menu would keep going there, if I am in that area. Their fried chicken, fries, sushi, noodles, and drinks are amazing. Their price is not economical. Overall, I would recommend this place for any non-vegetarian.

Nabe’s special is to adding rice into your hot pot base at the end (which is like congee style).
This is not a new inventory to me since I’ve tried a lot of high quality hotpot in Taiwan and they all have this “congee service.”
During my visit, they only show up at our table twice (ordering & making congee). Hotpot itself is not attractive to me either. The size of hot pot is design for one per person (not recommend two ppl share one).
No pictures here since nothing special.

It was actually asahiru when I went which means morning noon in Japanese. The wagyudon was reminiscent of the wagyudon I had while in Japan last year. I really enjoyed it. The curry was also delicious and by far one of the top curries I've had in SF. Will for sure go back during lunch for more good food!
