My cousins brought me here to celebrate my 25th birthday. I love shabu, and I have yet to try this spot out. Parking: They're located in a medium sized plaza, and there's plenty of free parking. Ambiance/Environment: It's very clean inside. There's a decent amount of seating. We visited on a Thursday night, so it wasn't too busy. Service: Our server was efficient. We didn't catch her name, but she was knowledgable about the menu when we asked questions. Throughput was under 15 min after ordering. After receiving our orders, our server checked on us a couple times. Soup & meats: My bf and I ordered the 'specials for 2' and went with the shared brisket set. The soup was decent; wasn't too salty. My favorite part were the briskets. It came with a generous amount of briskets. The toppings were also fresh. This special included beers and desserts.

Finally was ably to try Mokkoji. Before 6pm on a Saturday was key. We did have a reservation, but the place was wide open. It was completely full by the time we left though. I ordered the Brisket and my wife got the Mokkoji special. Both were excellent. Veggies were fresh.

OK, I don't really like hot pot, but this place is an exception Their food is solid, and that's not deception make sure you get their marinated meat because that's the best I love this place over all the hot pot rest. They're super clean and the wait staff are super nice But mind you, it's kinda cold in there, kinda like ice (not that bad, just needed to rhyme ;) I really like this place. They have a long bar in the middle, with some tables that seat four on the left side. They have size portions that are S, M, and L, but there's also a "SH" which means sharing. When asking for the meat, they'll ask if you want marinated, which you should say "YES" because it's delicious. If you like spicy, they'll come around asking if you'd like some drops. Apparently these drops are super powerful. My wife does two drops in her sauce, and 3-5 drops in her soup. But mind you, it's really spicy.

My absolute FAVORITE place to eat. It's an experience that shouldn't be missed with friends, make a reservation for a table with several people or enjoy the bar space with one friend. The sesame sauce is absolutely life changing I want jars and jars of it for my house. Fresh veggies are "chefs kiss" great music choice and plenty of staff to support all the tables and bar.

I'm generally very meh when it comes to shabu, but I can def say Mokkoji is my FAVORITE place for shabu now!! It's so good I'm still thinking about it a week later. I hateee waiting, but there was no wait on a Friday night at this location. Our party got seated v quickly. Minor caveat to everything is that you have to pay for your broth selection, which I haven't seen at many places other than Haidilao. I got spicy pork broth and it was v good tho. I got flat iron cut and everyone else got toro. The meat quality is SOOO good. That's what sets this place apart from other shabu restaurants. And you have the option for your meats to come marinated, too. We each got a large meat selection and it was a decent amount of meat. Not sure about rice, but veggies were refillable. I'm def looking forward to my next socal trip so I can come back :)

It's a smaller place but loved it! I went on a Monday night so it wasn't too packed. They have an option to make a reservation on Yelp and that was helpful. You go in to get seated and you can begin ordering your broth first. Then you can order your meat and any other sides you may like. A serving initially comes with rice and a side of veggies, tofu, and udon noodles. Our server informed us rice and additional vegged are unlimited so that is nice to know.

Quick & efficient service. I liked that you can get multiple meats. My partner had the plain broth and they weren't kidding when they called it plain... I got the sukiyaki flavor which is my usual go to but theirs was not as flavorful as others I have tried. Their meats were really yummy and I would defiantly recommend requesting they come marinaded as the garlic flavoring was really good and helped flavor the soup a bit. Overall not my favorite place for hot pot but it wasn't bad.

I'm a usual at Mokkoji but my first time at this location! Food and service was great, the only complaint I have is that we made a reservation but still had to wait for a decent amount of time for a table, so it felt like maybe the reservation was pointless. I got what I always get, the sukiyaki with toro fatty belly. I love their sauces and usually get a hot drop in my sauce and broth! It's spicy though so be careful. Love the garlic and green onions they provide as well. As for the veggies it might be nice if they asked if there's any you don't want, since I usually don't eat the pumpkin or carrot. I guess it can also be requested but sometimes they bring it out before you can mention it! Just so you don't have to waste it. They also provide a bowl of rice! Parking is provided in the lot and there were no issues for me around dinner time. Inside looks clean!
