I’ve visited Gen BBQ many times, but not at this branch before. I’m truly impressed with this location. The meat quality is excellent, with plenty of variety, and you can order continuously without any issues.
Nico, our server, provided outstanding service—fast, accurate, and very attentive. He consistently checked on us and made sure we had everything we needed. Even though he was serving several tables, he still took great care of us with a positive attitude.
I will definitely come back again.Thank you again. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

We had an amazing dining experience at Gen Korean BBQ House! We decided to go for the premium dinner option, which was an extra $20 (about $50 per person total), and it was absolutely worth it.
We ordered the prawns, wagyu beef, cowboy short ribs, and ribeye steak, and everything was fresh, tender, and packed with flavor. The sweet garlic sauce that comes with the premium meal was a standout—definitely ask for it if you upgrade!
They were unfortunately out of the green tea salt, which pairs really well with the meats, but our server was super apologetic and let us know the next shipment is expected next week.
To complement our BBQ, we also got fried kimchi rice—I had mine with cheese and it was so delicious and comforting. For drinks, we tried the peach-flavored soju in a giant fishbowl-style cup, which was fun and refreshing.
The service was excellent—our waiter was friendly, attentive, and helpful with recommendations. We came around 4:30 p.m., which was a perfect time—no long wait, and the ambiance was chill and enjoyable without the usual dinner rush noise.
All in all, this place is a vibe. Great food, great drinks, and great service. I’ll definitely be coming back—especially when the green tea salt is restocked!

I LOVE KBBQ we search for a place in every city we visit. That said, I think you should know what KBBQ is really about. This is NOT a buffet ready to eat food experience. This is a low and slow table top, cook your own food place. This experience is for those who have the time, patience and not at all in a hurry to eat. If I remember correctly Gen suggests a 3 serving at a time and while the portions might seem small remember you do have unlimited servings and a 2 hour limit to indulge.
My recommendation is start with 1-2 appetizers, always cook the thicker cuts first by time you’re done with appetizers those will be ready for you to enjoy but if time is of the essence thinner cuts might be best option. We usually cook the protein in that order that way we have a steady amount of food. Remember to relax, chat, have drink and enjoy. I love having dates here with my husband (we do brunch or dinner) the vibe is great for it! It also gives us time to catch up on conversation of the home, work, extended family, kids, plans for the future or just plain good gossip
Price wise I really don’t find it over priced. Depending on your menu choice (we always get the premium), your party size and your budget yes do expect to pay between $40-$50/person just like at any Brazilian steak house.
Overall I do recommend.

My husband and I recently visited Gen, and overall, I found it to be significantly overpriced for the experience it offered. When we arrived, instead of greeting us and asking for our party size, the staff placed a sign with a QR code in front of me so that I could request a table. It felt really unusual. The all-you-can-eat option was $31.95 per person, which included unlimited proteins, but drinks were not included. Alcoholic beverages averaged around $20 each, while non-alcoholic options like soda and tea were about $5, making the total cost add up quickly. The portioning was also disappointing. Each table only received a small bowl of rice to accompany the proteins, but since the meat takes time to cook, the rice would often go cold before we could fully enjoy it. The booths were fairly small and cramped, and the interior design felt more like a nightclub, with dim lighting and blue neon lights, which didn’t create the most inviting dining atmosphere. Service was another issue. Our waiter was friendly but frequently forgot requests, such as bringing tongs, and as first-time visitors, we were not given any explanation of how the process worked. The cooking itself took quite a while, and while the staff did come around to change out the grill tops periodically, it felt disruptive. After each swap, we had to wait again for the grill to heat up, further extending the time before we could eat. In the end, my husband and I spent around $80, and we left feeling unsatisfied. The food took too long to cook, the portions were not generous, and the overall experience didn’t justify the high price. If they were to lower the per-person cost, it might feel more reasonable, but as it stands, I wouldn’t return or recommend it.

Terrible service partly due to shortage of staff. Received our food before our drinks which took almost thirty minutes to receive. Waitress said their bartender didn’t come in so she had to make our milk teas when she got a chance. Didn’t offer water to drink in the meantime. Glad we didn’t choke on our food while we were waiting for our drinks. By the time we got our milk teas we only received 3 of them out of 4. She informed they needed to brew some tea to make the 4th one ♀️ They didn’t have any rice ready either so that was another long wait then when we received that it wasn’t even warm at least. Food was mid, nothing special. Ordered the double dragon appetizer which is two different types of fried shrimp. Only received one type and wasn’t informed they were out of the other until i asked. The first plate of raw meat she did bring she spilled raw juice meat onto the table and never cleaned it or say sorry. Some items were placed on our table and were unsure what it even was so it just sat there until our waitress was available for us to even ask. Mind you this is on Wednesday evening and wasn’t even busy or crowded. Waitress wasn’t available when we were ready to check out so Carlos the manager assisted us. He asked how everything was and I told him this was our first time here and we will never return and also told him why. All he said was that he was sorry to hear that. Then there was an issue with checking out and he offered no resolution just switched to a different machine. -10 out of 10, DO NOT recommend at all whatsoever. Forgot to mention it’s $32.95 per person for all you can eat dinner. Not one person in our group ate that much food for that price.

Came here for a second time recently; first time was several months ago. I must say, the quality of the food has gone down significantly. The service is great, the atmosphere is decent. Maybe take care of the plumbing smell near the entrance as you enter the restaurant but no complaints otherwise for the atmosphere. The pricing is very reasonable. Presentation of food is great.
It’s just the quality of the food that is quite disappointing – not just a specific selection or two, but the quality of nearly all items we tried, including appetizers was underwhelming.

Incredibly slow service (not that busy of a day but we spent almost 3 hours there, most of it waiting around), the grill needed to be adjusted a few times because it wasn’t getting hot, and the icing on the cake was the hostess herself complaining about the amount of work she had to do. Food was decent at very best. It’s definitely one of those places that brings you a little bit of meat and then makes you wait 30 mins for the next order so you don’t order as much. Definitely not worth the price of admission. Skip this joint.

Upon entering the restaurant, I was greeted promptly by Mindy. She was welcoming, kind, and got us a table right away. Our server was Dylan. This fella was awesome. He was knowledgeable of the meats, excellent conversation, and was so helpful in helping our table cook the larger cuts of meat. His expertise and great customer service was top notch. Their meat quality was superb and the atmosphere was so cool. Blue lights made me feel like I was in a John Wick movie. The decor was lovely and our meats were brought out promptly. Top Marks to Dylan and Mindy for giving myself and my party a memorable, and fun Korean BBQ experience. I’ll be back!

Sat 2/22 1pm, this place is ok but VERY VERY PRICEY so be ready to spend 3 of us 31.95 each and yes it was all you can eat, but the portions were kid sizes, very small. I probably won’t be back. But to each is own. You may like it. Service was ok, he was friendly but he didn’t check on us enough. My rice was already cold by the time the food was ready. I don’t think they should bring out the rice bowl until you’re ready to start cooking away. Only had water to drink. My mom had green tea that she had to ask to take back to heat up, it was cold. The ambiance was very nice. I liked the lighting.
