Kanpai BBQ & Hotpot in Rockville, MD: our most fun pick for a group celebration

Kanpai BBQ & Hotpot, our sister restaurant at 1701 Rockville Pike, Suite A10 in Rockville, MD, is the most fun way we know to feed a group. Everyone at the table cooks: marinated meats and seafood go on the built-in grill, and fresh ingredients go into a shabu shabu hot pot.

Why it works for a celebration

All-you-can-eat pricing keeps the bill simple. Adult dinner is $45 and adult lunch is $28. Kid dinner is $16 for ages 4 to 6 and $22 for ages 7 to 10; kid lunch is $14 and the kid lunch buffet is $11. Kanpai is top-rated on Google, with 4.7 stars from 751 reviews as of October 2026.

Something for every guest

Meat lovers can grill brisket, satay beef or lemongrass pork chop, and at dinner the menu adds marinated galbi, ribeye steak and thin-cut beef tongue. Seafood fans can pick Hokkaido scallop, shrimp or salmon. For the hot pot, the table chooses two soup bases for the big pot, from Laksa, Tom Yum, Spicy Green Mala, Original and Shabu Shabu. The buffet adds Southeast Asian street food, fresh salads and desserts.
