About
Mo-Mo-Paradise in Ikebukuro Sunshine 60th Street brings the chain's beloved unlimited shabu-shabu concept to one of Tokyo's best family entertainment destinations. Sunshine City is a vast complex that includes the Sunshine Aquarium on the rooftop, a Pokemon Center, a planetarium, and extensive shopping — meaning families can structure an entire day around this single address. The shabu-shabu restaurant sits within the Sunshine 60th Street mall level, offering the same unlimited thin-sliced beef and pork hot pot format that has made Mo-Mo-Paradise a favorite among Tokyo families.
Children from about age 5 engage well with the interactive cooking format, swishing meat through the simmering broth and building their own dipping sauce combinations. The restaurant accommodates the full spectrum of the Mo-Mo-Paradise menu, including both beef and pork options, unlimited vegetables, tofu, and noodles, and the two signature dipping sauces: sesame and ponzu. Timing a visit here before or after the Sunshine Aquarium creates a natural narrative arc to the day — play, eat, play — that works exceptionally well for families with elementary-school-age children.
Reservations are strongly recommended for weekends, as the location's popularity within the broader Sunshine City complex means it fills up quickly.

Pro Tips from Parents
- Book the aquarium and Mo-Mo-Paradise on the same day — they're in the same complex and the combination is ideal for a full family day.
- Reserve a table in advance for weekend visits; the Ikebukuro location fills up faster than other branches due to the surrounding attractions.
- Order both sesame and ponzu dipping sauces and let kids experiment — most prefer sesame, but the combination is part of the shabu-shabu experience.
What to Bring
