" I was very disappointed with my visit to Gen Korean BBQ. I expected delicious, authentic food but what I received was mediocre at best. Service was an issue. We had to constantly ask for refills and wait for our food. I felt like we were neglected and it put a damper on the meal. Sadly, I don't think I'll be returning. " (*Curated Review*)

The servers were friendly, though sometimes the pace felt a bit frantic. However, the food was worth the wait! The mixture of flavors complemented the cooking experience beautifully. Can't wait to come back for more! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had been recommended Gen Korean BBQ by friends, and I was curious to see if it lived up to the hype. The self-cooking aspect was fun, and the meats were indeed fresh and flavorful. However, service was below average. I felt ignored at times, which can dampen the dining experience. I may return for the food but I hope the service improves. " (*Curated Review*)
