It has been a while since we reviewed an Upper Dot establishment. With a new shabu shabu bar opening up, we found just the place to review. In a completely new building, Van Shabu and Bar was sleek and clean. Hip pop music accented the diverse dinners. We started with lychee martinis (there is a full bar) and sashimi (we overheard that their sushi bar will open in two weeks!). We had a split hot pot of pork and kimchi broth, with beef sirloin and seafood selections. The shabu shabu came with a fresh assortment of vegetables. The staff was attentive and the food was well-prepared. Once this place starts serving sushi (since we love sushi and Dorchester still has no sushi restaurants), we may be visiting quite regularly.

UPDATE: Van Shabu and Bar now has a full menu of sushi. We can report that it not only tastes amazing, but its not overly priced (and they offer excellent specials, including all-you-can-eat sushi and hot pot on certain days and nights). Click on their website link above for their full menu.
