Kanpai BBQ & Hotpot is an all-you-can-eat Southeast Asian BBQ and shabu shabu buffet at 1701 Rockville Pike, Suite A10 in Rockville, MD. For Northern Virginia diners it means a trip across the river to Montgomery County, and with 4.7 stars from 751 Google reviews, we think it is one of the most fun reasons to make that drive.

When to go
