Our story

Traditional shabu shabu, with a twist.

Quality over quantity is what you will experience at Mokkoji, a traditional Japanese shabu shabu restaurant inspired by Korean, Spanish and California cuisine.

You'll find tapas, flavorful broths and marinated meats, all cooked at your table in your own individual hot pot.

Everyone gets their own pot and their own broth, so nobody has to agree on anything: pick your meat, mix your sauce and keep dipping until you're happy.

We're in Cypress Village on Jeffrey Road, open for lunch and dinner. We're a family friendly place, so bring the kids, and call us to make reservations.
