About

Bar: Beer & wine

Shabu Tatsu brings authentic shabu-shabu to the East Village, with thin slices of meat and vegetables cooked tableside in a hot pot. This Japanese BBQ and hot pot spot offers a lively yet upscale vibe, confirmed dog friendly on their outdoor patio. It's worth the trek for a hands-on dining experience that stands out in NYC's crowded restaurant scene.

"If you've never had shabu shabu, you're missing a great experience."

Reservations are recommended and accepted, and the beer and wine list keeps things simple. Happy hour adds value to an already affordable fine-dining price tier. After dinner, Katz's Delicatessen is a short walk for a classic NYC dessert.

Located in the East Village near 1st and 2nd Avenue, this spot fits right in with the neighborhood's eclectic dining scene.

“Favorate in East Village”

If you've never had shabu shabu, you're missing a great experience. It was my go-to place when I lived in East Village.
