" I was really looking forward to my meal, but unfortunately, I was disappointed by slow service. We seemed to be forgotten a few times. The food was decent, but I expected better when dining in. Not entirely sold on returning yet. " (*Curated Review*)

" Overall, a nice place to enjoy Korean BBQ. It was busy, but the staff managed to keep our grill clean and changed it quickly when needed. The meat options were delicious with a good variety, and we had a great time grilling our food! I'd recommend Gen to anyone looking for a fun and interactive dining experience. " (*Curated Review*)

" I tried Gen for the first time and thought the food was okay, but the service didn't meet my expectations. My order was forgotten which really impacted our experience. It’s a bummer because I had high hopes for the food given the popularity of the place. " (*Curated Review*)

" This restaurant is a great spot for KBBQ lovers! The meats were fresh and the sides were delicious. I particularly loved the grilled vegetables and the kimchi. Service was good, although it could be quicker during busy times. Overall, a solid experience. " (*Curated Review*)

" Our dining experience was marred by poor service overall. While the food looked amazing, we experienced delays in receiving our orders, and the waiter didn't check back with us until we were almost finished with our meal. Disappointing, to say the least. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had a fantastic experience at Gen Korean BBQ! From the moment I walked in, the staff was attentive and made sure we had everything we needed. The variety of meats available is incredible, and cooking at the table added to the excitement of the meal. We especially enjoyed the beef bulgogi and spicy pork. Can’t wait to return with friends! " (*Curated Review*)

" I’ve been to many Korean BBQ places across the country, and while Gen Korean BBQ has good meat quality, the service management needs serious work. We had a long wait for service even though it wasn’t crowded. The grill wasn’t changed for us, and it was frustrating. I recommend going to the Fullerton location instead for a much better experience. " (*Curated Review*)
