After a yearlong renovation, Mumu Hot Pot is finally welcoming diners at its sixth, and newest, Bay Area location, Westfield Oakridge Mall in South San Jose.
The restaurateurs decided to start from bottom up, literally, installing ventilation below every hot pot instead of hoods overhead. There’s prominent new signage outside, facing Blossom Hill Road, and seating for 200 inside this prime spot that was formerly home to P.F. Chang’s.
A meal at Mumu begins with choosing among five flavors of broth: spicy-sour tom yum, sweet-soy sukiyaki, sweet-and-sour creamy tomato, Sichuan spicy or buttery extra-spicy. From there, diners pick preset combos of ingredients they plop into their broth at the table, from a Meat Lover for two people to a Seafood Combo for one.
They can add on various types of seafood, such as South American shrimp, tilapia slices, fish balls with roe, and meats that include Japanese A5 Miyazaki Wagyu, Black Angus short ribs, Kobe beef toro, tongue, New Zealand lamb and Spam.
For Oakridge only: It’s worth noting that the two enlarged combos, Premium Wagyu Set and Premium Japanese A5 Set, are available only at this location.

Vegetarian add-ons include fresh tofu, fried tofu pods and bean curd; spinach, Napa cabbage, broccoli, king oyster mushrooms and taro; and vermicelli, rice cake, house ramen and instant noodles.
Everything is tied together with a rainbow assortment of sauces and can be washed down with 14 craft beers, house cocktails and specialty teas.
Other Mumu Hot Pots are located in Sunnyvale, Pleasanton, Foster City, Emeryville and San Francisco.
Details: Open daily from 11:30 a.m.-2:30 p.m. and 5-9 p.m. at 925 Blossom Hill Road, San Jose; https://mumuhotpot.com/
