About

Shabu-Works is an all-you-can-eat shabu-shabu spot with three clearly marked vegan broths—kombu, tomato, and mushroom—and a wide selection of vegetables and mushrooms. Vegan diners can build a filling meal with tofu, though a reviewer found the buffet items and many sauces weren’t labeled, so checking ingredients is important; one review also cited a $40-per-person price without a vegan discount.
