GEN Korean BBQ House

It's been a while since our visit, so things may have changed since then. I always strive to provide fair and objective reviews when it comes to restaurants. I'm sharing our collective experience dining at this restaurant with my friends. If you're looking for a place with unlimited food and drinks, this is it. However, it's worth noting that it's a bit more expensive compared to other barbecue spots. Upon entering, I immediately caught the tantalizing scent of food being prepared. The lighting was dim, and there was a live band performing, which struck us as unusual during lunchtime. Perhaps some piped-in music would have sufficed, but it might have been due to the weekend. Our table was generously spacious, easily accommodating six. Now, onto the food. We were a bit overwhelmed by the extensive menu, but the attentive server recommended their best-sellers (kudos to them). According to my friends, the pork was good, and the beef was excellent. I particularly enjoyed the beef, while seafood options seemed limited, with only calamari available. It's possible that dory wasn't a popular choice, and we did inquire about shrimp, which they provided in abundance. In terms of service, our initial requests for green veggies and sides were met promptly, but subsequent requests were overlooked. It took several attempts to get refills for our drinks. We were informed we had a two-hour window for ordering, but we ended up leaving after an hour and a half, perhaps due to a misunderstanding. We were disappointed to find that the food choices had diminished in variety and quality compared to previous visits. Many items were 'out of stock,' including the classic samgyeopsal, which used to be a main draw for us. Additionally, the live band, although present for entertainment, proved more distracting due to its volume.

Excellent service from the host to all the food attendants who assisted us. The band was good. Their lead vocals is a legit singer. They are good entertainers. There’s nothing really spectacular about the food but it was okay. I was just looking for a buffet of cooked foods which is normal in a grilled bbq store like this one. It’s a bit pricey but the quality service made it all worth it.

Honestly, the price of 900+ per person is not that worth it. The meat is not as good as the other budget-friendly bbq restaurants. We expected too much. Cheese is not that good also, it tastes like milk with roux, even the sesame oil doesn't have a strong flavor, and the kimchi as well, fried chicken with soy flavor not yummy, cajun pork is a so-so option, even the plain angus beef and I think that was chadol, not that yummy. We liked the service tho! Super accommodating and fast! We also liked the generous serving of the garlic. Atmosphere and the vibes is good. Own opinion, we'll never go back again. 4/10.

Out of the korean buffet restaurants I have been to , this one is the best...as of now hahaha Premium meats with variety of choices from beef, pork, and chicken. They also have seafood and ox intestines. Their banchan is great and i like their tofu soup. Servers are also friendly. Specially our server, Maj! She is very accommodating and attentive. My grandmother enjoyed our dining here. Very recommended. Though the price is expensive, the food and service is great!
