Dada Shabu Shabu Buffet - Irvine

Love this place. Food is so good. I like the brisket and definitely recommend trying the fish. I like that they have a wide assortment of foods. Decent price and not packed on weekdays in my experience . Only gripe is I don't like the shaved iceFood: 5/5

Our family went for a late dinner and arrived at 9:10pm, and they closed at 10pm. Upon arrival, they told us that we only had 10 mins to order, which we said okay to. Then two other people came to tell us that we only had 10 mins, both to which we said it’s fine, and that we would like to be seated asap. Then they said they would have to split us into 2 tables (we had 5 people) which we agreed to. For the next few minutes, they went around talking and looking at us, and did not prepare to seat us. As our 10 mins to order was shortening and no one was making an effort to seat us, we said we will leave to not cause trouble. As we were leaving, we saw one of the servers dancing happily which really put us off. We went down the street to All That Shabu instead and although they were also closing soon, they were kind to us and we had a great experience! We left a hefty tip to compensate them for their hospitality and left before their last customers. We won’t ever be going back to Dada’s.

We tried this place, the staff were very nice. The price for a plate of just meat ? was way too high for the quality. 3 plates of meat thinly sliced) $75.00. The atmosphere was mostly families.The muscles were great.Dietary restrictions: There was not a type 1 diabetic option for dessert, like a cookie, cake, or ice cream. They only jade shaved ice ?

If you're in the mood for delicious Korean food, this is a must-visit. The buffet offers a wide variety of dishes, each bursting with flavor and made with fresh ingredients. The service is exceptional, and the atmosphere is inviting. Highly recommended for anyone looking for an authentic Korean dining experience.

Food was good. Servers and Front Desk hostess were not pleasant. Need more training for service. Had to ask server to refill soup 3 times but never happened. I had to grab someone to do it. Check in experience was not happy. They had a 6 ppl table available but would not give out. 6 ppl why came later than us took that seat even that group had 2 kids which is free. Head server kept telling us he would not know how long it will take to have table for 5. Feel like he did not want to take care of customer. Overall servers did not pay attention on guest table. Better traing will make better business for this location.
