About us

Welcome to Shabu Shabu Kagayaki in the popular Montreal's Chinatown district. Here you will discover a traditional Japanese specialty known has Shabu Shabu The origins of Shabu Shabu cooking date back many years, where families gathered around a large hot pot for their evening meal. Shabu Shabu means splash-splash. The customers receive thin slices of raw meat and vegetables, which they cook quickly in a pot of boiling water. These are dipped in a sesame sauce or ponzu sauce (soy based sauce). After the meal, the remaining broth is used as a soup for noodle or rice. Today, the freshest meat and seafood available, delicious Japanese sauces and a bowl of rice is all that's needed for a classic Shabu Shabu meal and Kagayaki is the place to experience what Shabu Shabu is all about. Along with great food, Kagayaki offers a great friendly atmosphere, traditional decor and great fun whether you are with a group of friends, family or in couple. Great place to celebrate any type of small dinner parties. No one does Shabu Shabu Kagayaki style!

We were there on a Tuesday night, so it was very quiet, weekend might be different. No wait for a table. Very friendly & helpful service. The food was amazing, I ate so much! Broth flavourful & the meats were very good. Highly recommend it!

First time trying Shabu Shabu. Great atmosphere & friendly service, though they did feel understaffed. We got their new omakase set for 39$ & the sukiyaki broth. The portions seemed small at first glance but turned out to be surprisingly filling. The broth was really good but on the salty side, had to drink lots of water. Be careful not to leave your ingredients soaking in the broth for too long! Overall I'd come back here for a special occasion!

Fantastic service that was attentive & speedy. The spicy broth really hit the spot. There is plenty of food for each set. I got the premium beef set & it was really yummy. Wish there was a bit more meat but I came away stuffed (there was a lot of veggies, & it came with a bowl of rice & noodles). The sesame sauce was also really yummy. The ponzu sauce was a bit too salty.

Dessert was an alfogato with chocolate ice cream. The ice cream tasted like cheap ice cream but it was elevated by the espresso.

My favorite place for hot pot in down town Montreal. The broth is so tasty to the point where everything else ( vegetables, the lamb, etc ) goes perfectly well alongside it. It's a bit pricey now since the prices have increased. Fortunately, the ice cream dessert is already included in the whole meal & it's a good ending to the wonderful meal. You're better off calling to reserve because it can get crowded on busy evenings. They even take amex !

The food was delicious, lots of options & you can mix the sauces, broth or spices for unique flavors. The servers checked in often & were a delight. Recommend the combo dishes as they have lots of different items to enjoy

We had a great experience here! The food was amazing & the quality was on par with my experiences in Asia. The spicy broth & tofu were excellent. Our server was wonderful about walking us through the process. He was attentive, & gave us other great local recommendations.

My boyfriend & I's go-to place for Japanese hot pot ! The portions are good despite the recent price increase. The dessert is included with your meal combo, which is a plus. They usually offer ice cream, mochi ice cream or affogato as dessert options, which vary day to day. The only negative point is the saltiness of the broth; it makes us super thirsty after our meal every time. Nonetheless, I recommend this place for a cozy meal during the colder months of the year !

The atmosphere is super enjoyable & the experience is definitely nice. The service was really good & their staff is friendly. This place is definitely great for healthier food options, but it's nothing extraordinary. Although, I really liked the goma sauce & the spicy broth. I took the chicken breast combo but I think there were better options. It was also pretty pricey, but I think it was worth it, especially if you're going with friends, it's a super fun experience.

Had the combo for 2. Spicy broth is good as soup personally Sukiyaki for who likes sweetness The dessert today were delicious! The cake within mashed red beans is yummy. Matcha ice cream doesn't have a strong taste of milk & it's a little bitter combined with sweet which is tasty

This place is my favorite of all the hotpot spots in Montreal! I never leave there unsatisfied. The menu changed over time but the food is always delicious. You have your own pot & you choose your broth & the meat you want. It's a shame I didn't take a picture. price is a bit high but the experience is worth it! :) I chose the meat lover combo with the spicy broth & I wasn't disappointed! The waitresses were polite & available. Definitely will come back & recommend!

It was a very cool first experience! You choose your broth & meat combo & then the food starts coming. It's a beautiful large assortment of veggies, tofu & mushrooms. Then come the sauces, the sides & the meat. The beef & seafood were extraordinary! The porc was delicious but a little fatty. Personally, I let the porc sit much longer in the broth to give the broth more depth. As you go through all the food, you're also kind of making your own soup as you go. The staff was awesome, Atmosphere is cool. Nothing fancy, I was just in shorts & a polo shirt & didn't feel out of place. The place is upstairs, the sign isn't clear, make sure you look for the address, that's how we found it. Will definitely be back & will be bringing my foodie friends.

More expensive in recent years so I go less frequent but it’s quite good. The quality of the ingredients is really top & you just don’t want it to end! Great broth. Around $50 / person.

Attention au bouillon "épicé"; celui auquel nous avons eu droit ce soir était si piquant que le repas a été un fiasco. Le serveur devrait signaler ceci; je ne suis pas fervente des mets épicés au point où on ne goûte plus les aliments & c'était le cas du bouillon qui ressemblait à une marmite de tabasco en ébullition. Dommage car nous aimons le shabu shabu, nous en faisons du vraiment bon à la maison & on s'y limitera car l'atmosphère est vraiment plus sympa chez nous! Est-ce que cela tuerait le serveur de saluer quand on entre & de s'enquérir de notre satisfaction durant le repas? J'ai mangé que quelques bouchées; j'avais la bouche & la gorge en feu & je redoutais la suite cette nuit & demain matin!
English: beware of the spicy broth if you want to keep your taste buds! The service is absolutely lame; would it kill the waiter to greet people qhen they come in, tell them he'll be with them in a minute & smile once in a while & ask how everything is going?

Delicious & different... We eat Shabu Shabu for the first time & we expect something like fondue chinoise... It was a lot better & with different taste. The delicate flavour of the Beef grade "A" & the vegetables melted in our mouth... I order the spicy broth & I love it, it was hot, full of flavour, if you dont love spicy avoid it because is strong, for my kids we order the chicken broth, more delicate taste...

For sure I will back...
