Came here for Christmas lunch and had a good experience. The staff was incredibly kind and attentive throughout the entire meal.
We ordered from the dinner menu, and the galbi and beef bulgogi were the highlights. I appreciated how proactive the servers were with changing our grill at regular intervals. It’s a good selection for the price.
The only downside was the restroom. There was a very intense smell even before entering the door.

My husband and I were looking for a place to have Korean BBQ, and this spot did not disappoint. The food was delicious and well worth the visit.
We arrived about 10 minutes early and were told by one of the hosts that they weren’t open yet. As we were heading back to our car, Justin stopped us and kindly let us in early. Such a thoughtful gesture. It gave us time to get settled and look over the menu.
Justin was incredibly attentive and helpful throughout our visit. Since it was our first time there, he took the time to explain the menu in detail, checked on us often, and even helped us cook our meal when we were struggling a bit. A few other staff members also checked up on us, which made us feel very well taken care of.
I can honestly say I’ve never experienced service like this at a restaurant before. Justin truly went above and beyond and made our entire experience extremely pleasant.

Been coming here for years. Over the last year and some change the place has really gotten worse. The floors are slippery and dangerous. It takes half an hour for a waiter to even approach you, and they forget everything. The place is constantly understaffed. Today I had the displeasure of a waiter spilling sticky pickle juice all over my expensive bag and they offered nothing in return. Will never be coming back after over ten years coming here

A solid choice that’s not anything premium amongst the AYCE KBBQ greats of LA but at under 30 bucks, it usually delivers. If you’re tryna pig out after a big workout or run and wanna just get six or seven.. orders brisket or bulgogi then cant go wrong with gen.
if you think you’re down for ayce lunch then its not a bad deal either.
the wait is LONGGGG almost every day for dinner and if its the weekend just be prepared to wait like 2 hours lol.
service is usually top notch especially considering how busy they get so servers always coming around and making sure you got everything you need.

The two stars are for the waiter and busboy (they only two things that are good with this place).
Really bad host and ignored guests as they waited. I went there by myself and stand behind a few people that looked like they are applying for a job there, another family came right behind me. The host lady ignored everyone until she decided to asked number or family to be seated and skipped me.
The host lady knew I didn’t appreciate her bad service and she turned up her sarcasm.
Inside the restaurant felt like a night club lighting.
Food is okay and not the best.

Wow! This place is great!! 🙂 I came in on a Saturday afternoon and was able to get in before the rush. The restaurant is really nice and clean. Very fancy interior and looks really modern. Service was awesome! Even though they were kinda busy was able to get good service. Food comes out fresh and they change out the grill tray everytime and rarely have to ask for a new. I can’t wait to come back

I tried and it was awful, you don’t need to try ! The charge was equal to high end restaurant, but food quality, service, environment was Bombay.

We came at a very busy time so maybe that affected our experience, server was very busy and the system was messing up the tables, drinks and food were delayed. The food was good, if first time I would recommend to read menu online.

What brought me here was the smell from the outside. The food did not disappoint! I would say only come if you are really hungry so you can get your money’s worth. If you are hungry, it is a very fare price.
Our server, Neo, was amazing. Super attentive, kind and helpful for customers who were new to the experience.
Purely by it’s nature it is a very noisy place. So it is not great for visiting.

So to start off this Gen’s location might be the worst one I’ve ever been too. Although they play a good music playlist. I moved to Irvine from Cerritos where the Best Gens location is so you can expect this one not being able to compare. We had an amazing waiter J+++ who tried his best but at times he forgot to bring us many things which resulted to us having a poor experience. I see there is a lack of communication between the waiter and the kitchen. This is my second time visiting this location and both times were terrible. No rice cakes even though we ordered them both times when they took our first order. No refills on our drink because the waiter is overworked with more than 3 big parties to serve. The condiments we received was horrible. We only got salt and a yellow oil when you’re suppose to receive 2 oils and one salt. The meat tastes very different here than Cerritos, almost as if there is no flavor. The rice paper also is very hard around the edges instead of being soft. The corn cheese does not taste right for some reason as well. Great waiter. Location needs work. Hopefully more Staffing, better communication and better quality.
