The king scallop shabu-shabu (₩25,000) comes with a choice of plain or mala broth, plus octopus karaage and a highball, and vegetables, mushrooms and noodles are refilled for free at a self-service corner. A separate 8-seat room makes it a solid pick for family meals or work dinners. ## Good to know - **King scallop shabu-shabu**: ₩25,000 (noodles, vegetables and mushrooms refilled free) - **King scallop shabu-shabu set**: plain broth + spicy broth, king scallop 200g, beef chuck 200g - **Reservation-only menu**: Conger eel (hamo) shabu-shabu, order by reservation - **Seating**: Spacious hall plus a separate 8-seat room - **Parking**: Building parking only goes up to the 2nd floor; floors 3–5 are hotel parking - **Location**: 1st floor of a hotel-duplex building in Naju Innovation City *as written by the visitor on Sep 9, 2026* I visited Yuyu Shabu Naju Innovation City branch, a shabu-shabu restaurant in Naju Innovation City. This Naju shabu-shabu spot is near Bitgaram Lake Park, so it's great for a family meal and I'd also recommend it for a work lunch. ## Yuyu Shabu's location and parking — only up to the 2nd floor! ![Exterior of Yuyu Shabu on the 1st floor of a hotel-duplex building in Naju Innovation City](https://img.superchart.com/images/yuyu-shabu-naju-innocity-room-seats/yuyu-shabu-naju-innocity-room-seats-01-ia1s3-900.webp) Yuyu Shabu is on the first floor of a hotel-duplex building in Naju Innovation City. Since the building is shared with the hotel, the shopping-center parking only covers up to the 2nd floor — you have to move the traffic cones on the 2nd floor to park!!! (Floors 3-5 are hotel parking only!!!) ![Parking on the 2nd floor of the shopping-center parking lot](https://img.superchart.com/images/yuyu-shabu-naju-innocity-room-seats/yuyu-shabu-naju-innocity-room-seats-02-3alat-900.webp) When parking, go up only to the 2nd floor and move the cones to park!! Don't forget~! ![Interior of Yuyu Shabu Naju Innovation City branch with a Japanese-style atmosphere](https://img.superchart.com/images/yuyu-shabu-naju-innocity-room-seats/yuyu-shabu-naju-innocity-room-seats-03-2b2vi-900.webp) Unlike a lot of the trendy shabu-shabu places these days, Yuyu Shabu's interior has a bit of a Japanese feel. They also have a menu combining hinoki-steamed dishes with mini shabu-shabu, so there's quite a variety of options. ## Wide hall seating and an 8-seat room — what's available > There's plenty of wide hall seating, as well as a room where families can eat comfortably together. ![Interior view showing the spacious hall seating](https://img.superchart.com/images/yuyu-shabu-naju-innocity-room-seats/yuyu-shabu-naju-innocity-room-seats-04-18oi2-900.webp) This is the inside of Yuyu Shabu, a shabu-shabu place in Naju Innovation City. The hall seating is really spacious, so whether you come with two or three people you can sit comfortably with room to spare. ![Table seating in Yuyu Shabu's hall](https://img.superchart.com/images/yuyu-shabu-naju-innocity-room-seats/yuyu-shabu-naju-innocity-room-seats-05-3307r-900.webp) ![Hall seating with generous spacing between tables](https://img.superchart.com/images/yuyu-shabu-naju-innocity-room-seats/yuyu-shabu-naju-innocity-room-seats-06-11dwh-900.webp) And unlike most shabu-shabu chains, there's an actual room!!! At Yuyu Shabu in Naju Innovation City, there's a separate room, so it works well for work dinners as well as family meals. ![Entrance to the separate room seating area](https://img.superchart.com/images/yuyu-shabu-naju-innocity-room-seats/yuyu-shabu-naju-innocity-room-seats-07-fhjyl-900.webp) ![Interior of the room, suitable for family meals or work dinners](https://img.superchart.com/images/yuyu-shabu-naju-innocity-room-seats/yuyu-shabu-naju-innocity-room-seats-08-1z02k-900.webp) The room seats up to 8 people, so it's big enough for a pretty large family gathering! ![Overview of the 8-seat room table](https://img.superchart.com/images/yuyu-shabu-naju-innocity-room-seats/yuyu-shabu-naju-innocity-room-seats-09-14q6i-900.webp) ## King scallop shabu-shabu, ₩25,000, with plain and mala broth I ordered my shabu-shabu broth as half plain, half mala. You can't have shabu-shabu without a mala broth~ > King scallop shabu-shabu / ₩25,000 (noodles, vegetables and mushrooms refilled free) — plain broth + spicy broth, king scallop 200g + beef chuck 200g ![King scallop shabu-shabu spread with plain and spicy broth](https://img.superchart.com/images/yuyu-shabu-naju-innocity-room-seats/yuyu-shabu-naju-innocity-room-seats-10-1c1th-1200.webp) I wanted to try something a bit more special, so I ordered the king scallop shabu-shabu. Every shabu-shabu at Yuyu Shabu comes with unlimited mushrooms and vegetables, and they have special menus like this king scallop shabu-shabu — plus there's even a conger eel (hamo) shabu-shabu that you can only order by reservation!! ![Plate of 200g king scallop and beef chuck](https://img.superchart.com/images/yuyu-shabu-naju-innocity-room-seats/yuyu-shabu-naju-innocity-room-seats-11-1uvub-900.webp) You get to eat both shabu-shabu and king scallop, so it's two birds with one stone!! ![King scallop served alongside the shabu-shabu](https://img.superchart.com/images/yuyu-shabu-naju-innocity-room-seats/yuyu-shabu-naju-innocity-room-seats-12-1mjkw-900.webp) Noodles are also provided by default, so you can eat them in the leftover broth once you've finished the shabu-shabu~! ![Noodles included as a default part of the meal](https://img.superchart.com/images/yuyu-shabu-naju-innocity-room-seats/yuyu-shabu-naju-innocity-room-seats-13-18dd4-900.webp) I've been to quite a few shabu-shabu places, but this seems to be the first one that gives you king scallop~! ![Shabu-shabu spread set out with vegetables and mushrooms](https://img.superchart.com/images/yuyu-shabu-naju-innocity-room-seats/yuyu-shabu-naju-innocity-room-seats-14-1l28q-966.webp) A hearty spread all set!! Now let's dig in for real. ![Putting fish cake into the mala broth](https://img.superchart.com/images/yuyu-shabu-naju-innocity-room-seats/yuyu-shabu-naju-innocity-room-seats-15-1rown-900.webp) First I put fish cake into the mala broth~! The staff explained in advance which ingredients are best to put in first, which made things easy. ### Yuyu Shabu's special sauce This special sauce is something you can only get at Yuyu Shabu, and I think it's a real point of difference from other shabu-shabu places. Dip it right into the special sauce and it's absolutely delicious~! ![Shabu-shabu dipped in the special sauce](https://img.superchart.com/images/yuyu-shabu-naju-innocity-room-seats/yuyu-shabu-naju-innocity-room-seats-16-y73ko-900.webp) ## Highball and octopus karaage side dish I also ordered a highball, and it was sweet and delicious. ![A glass of sweet highball](https://img.superchart.com/images/yuyu-shabu-naju-innocity-room-seats/yuyu-shabu-naju-innocity-room-seats-17-xa61b-900.webp) This is the octopus karaage — chewy octopus fried up crispy, and it was delicious. Between the house-made sauce and side dishes, Yuyu Shabu really does have that Japanese-style touch!! ![Crispy fried octopus karaage](https://img.superchart.com/images/yuyu-shabu-naju-innocity-room-seats/yuyu-shabu-naju-innocity-room-seats-18-1qvmg-900.webp) If you feel like shabu-shabu alone isn't quite enough, I'd recommend this octopus karaage too!! ## Self-service corner with unlimited vegetables and mushrooms Unlimited vegetables and unlimited mushrooms with the shabu-shabu — that got me pretty excited. ![Plate of unlimited-refill vegetables and mushrooms](https://img.superchart.com/images/yuyu-shabu-naju-innocity-room-seats/yuyu-shabu-naju-innocity-room-seats-19-3eq64-900.webp) ![Shabu-shabu ingredients added to the boiling broth](https://img.superchart.com/images/yuyu-shabu-naju-innocity-room-seats/yuyu-shabu-naju-innocity-room-seats-20-rcoip-900.webp) Whenever you run low on ingredients, you can just top up at the self-service corner and add them straight to the broth — so I really ate shabu-shabu to my heart's content. This was my first time eating king scallop with shabu-shabu!!! The king scallop is delicious~~! ![King scallop cooking in the shabu-shabu broth](https://img.superchart.com/images/yuyu-shabu-naju-innocity-room-seats/yuyu-shabu-naju-innocity-room-seats-21-5fglf-900.webp) ![Self-service corner for topping up ingredients](https://img.superchart.com/images/yuyu-shabu-naju-innocity-room-seats/yuyu-shabu-naju-innocity-room-seats-22-a5oh2-900.webp) ![Vegetables and mushrooms prepared at the self-service corner](https://img.superchart.com/images/yuyu-shabu-naju-innocity-room-seats/yuyu-shabu-naju-innocity-room-seats-23-13lgc-900.webp) The self-service corner was so well stocked that I just kept eating and eating and eating. ![Finishing the meal with noodles in the leftover broth](https://img.superchart.com/images/yuyu-shabu-naju-innocity-room-seats/yuyu-shabu-naju-innocity-room-seats-24-1lp8x-900.webp) If you're looking for a good shabu-shabu place in Naju Innovation City, or you want one with a room, I recommend Yuyu Shabu Naju Innovation City branch in Bitgaram-dong~! ## Where it is - Yuyu Shabu Naju Innovation City branch (유유샤브 나주혁신점) - 22 Baemet 1-gil, Unit 113-114 1st floor, Naju-si, Jeollanam-do, South Korea - 전남광주통합특별시 나주시 배멧1길 22 1층 113호, 114호 - 35.0188693, 126.7927253 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%EC%9C%A0%EC%9C%A0%EC%83%A4%EB%B8%8C%20%EB%82%98%EC%A3%BC%ED%98%81%EC%8B%A0%EC%A0%90/@35.0188693,126.7927253,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@lip-balm-pocket/yuyu-shabu-naju-innocity-room-seats/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
