In short

Shabuway Ruwon City Cheongna Branch is an all-you-can-eat shabu-shabu restaurant with meat and salad bar on the 2nd floor of Ruwon Top Plaza in Ruwon City, Seohae, Incheon. A weekday lunch for 4 came to ₩22,900 per person with a Naver Reservation coupon, plus ₩2,000 for half spicy broth, totaling ₩93,600 — and the fried food corner's sweet and sour pork and chicken were so good the writer went back three times. The sleek interior and generous table spacing made it a great pick for a group meal.

There's an all-you-can-eat shabu-shabu place in Ruwon City with meat and salad bar included! It's not Shabu All Day — it's Shabuway!! What I liked here was the sleek atmosphere and the good service they offered!

Watch out — the parking lot has a traffic light system

It's the building's shopping mall parking lot! A slightly unusual structure — like a tunnel traffic light, it turns red when another car is coming down and green when you can pass, so you have to drive carefully.

Exterior and interior atmosphere

Straight up to the 2nd floor, let's go!

Huh? The atmosphere is really sleek, right? For a moment I wondered if this was really the shabu-shabu place, but I saw the Shabuway sign below and went in thinking it must be right!

It felt less like a shabu-shabu restaurant and more like a place with really polished design, giving off a somewhat upscale vibe — pretty impressive! The interior was also quite spacious, and I really loved how wide the spacing between tables was!

There are tables for 4 to 8 people, and there's also space set up inside for groups, so it seemed like a good spot to come with a gathering!

Salad bar and meat lineup

Overview of the Shabuway salad bar area

I was most curious about the salad bar, so I started right there!

Plate of the three basic meats provided

At first they bring out three kinds of meat! After that you go help yourself at the salad bar. The meat lineup is beef chuck, beef brisket, and pork shoulder, and you can grab more broth whenever you need it!

The menu is really varied, right? Perilla oil pasta, of all things!

Fire-grilled seasoned galbi corner

There's also fire-grilled seasoned galbi, which was also tasty.

Hot food corner with ratatouille
Fried food corner with sweet and sour pork and chicken

The ratatouille was good too, but the fried food here is seriously the real deal. I went back three times for the sweet and sour pork and chicken!

Mushroom soup corner
Corner with bread pieces prepared for the soup

They also have mushroom soup, and thoughtfully, bread pieces are set up so you can add them on top.

Salad corner with salmon salad and caprese

All kinds of salads too! There's salmon salad, caprese, fruit, and more prepared!

The most basic shabu-shabu ingredients like mushrooms, bean sprouts, and bok choy are all stocked. There are also fresh spring roll ingredients, kalguksu (noodle soup), and dumplings~

Sauces, self-serve porridge, dessert, and draft beer

There's a basic sauce combination and it's simple enough to make your own, which was nice~

Sauce-making corner

There's also a self-serve porridge corner, all set up~

Dessert zone with coffee available

Dessert zone! There's coffee too.

Self-serve ice cream and drinks corner

Ice cream and drinks are set up so you can scoop and pour your own.

Self-serve draft beer machine

There's a draft beer machine too — pay an extra ₩5,000 and it's unlimited.

A properly enjoyed spread

Time to properly enjoy the salad bar~ The meat came out clean each time, and the quality of the shabu meat was consistent every time I went to grab more!

It had really been a while since I enjoyed a meal this satisfying. While looking this place up, I saw a post saying 'please visit a lot so this place doesn't go under' — and once I came here, I understood exactly why someone would say that, given the quality!

And finally, dessert too!! Taetae here polished off all that meat!! By the time we were leaving, the place was already packed! I really loved the clean, tidy atmosphere!

Summary

  • Not a chaotic atmosphere
  • Really wide spacing between tables!
  • A clean, well-organized salad bar lineup
