2023-05-27 23:38:19The food was great and the service was awesome and our waiter was great and went on beyond his duties. (Chris). We will be coming back soon...

2023-11-16 05:18:27Just left gen and will not be back. As frequent customers they really dropped the ball tonight. I asked the front manager with glasses and pony tail to tell my server we were celebrating a birthday and they forgot. Not to mention the slow service tonight. I had to constantly flag server down when we need a grill change. When we ordered something it was forgotten. What was going on tonight it was NOT that busy! That sucks because we loved gen. As far as the food apparently server told us they got a new distributor so their rice paper is garbage now and the quality of the brisket was terrible. We spent $150 out the door and STILL TIPPED. For a terrible experience!

2023-10-16 18:51:34This used to be a fun/decent place for KBBQ - like a Yard House equivalent - but the quality has definitely dropped. Ordered delivery because I do not have access to KBBQ in my neighborhood.I asked for cucumber and potato salad - and was given kimchi, of all things (?!) and the meats were overcooked to hell. Go to one of the mom and pop places in Cerritos instead if you can help it, Gen clearly doesn’t want business.

2023-04-15 06:54:03Although pretty expensive, this is one of the best places to get Korean bbq. The meat is actually really great quality and the service is really good. The place can get really packed so get there earlier than expected. This was a great experience and is worth it.

2023-08-18 21:56:04My daughter asked for a lunch date, we arrived at 1:45 and after literally a couple minutes wait were seated. All good there. The waiter shows up after about 10 minutes, okay... Place isnt crowded and I cant say what he was doing beforehand as I didnt know who the server was. We order our beverages and food. He puts it into the iPad and then goes to help others. He brings the sauces, rice and no salad. I noticed he was starting to serve others who came in after we did. Catching his attention as he walked by, we asked for a bowl of brisket sauce. He said he could top off our sauce tray. He proceeded to give the table over a bowl of sauce. At this point weve been there over 25 minutes. Someone else brings the food out, guess what... The grill isnt lit. Other people that arrived after us and are seated are already cooking and enjoying their food. I go ask the manager if I could borrow the lighter wand to light our grill (I know I cant) she says shell go tell the waiter (instead of just doing it herself). They go track him down, he walks by and Im not exaggerating another 4 to 5 times bringing stuff to the other tables, another 10 minutes had gone by and finally Im like enough... So I ask for the check for the soda my daughter drank and he says with an attitude what about the food I said how were we supposed to cook it when you never turned the grill on? He says I thought it was on... I said, at this point were no longer interested in eating here. I speak to the manager and offer again to pay for the drink and she looked annoyed but said its okay. We left... And yes were black. The only blacks in the restaurant.

2023-10-04 19:34:13Have been going to this location for many years and today I have had the worst experience. Server only came by three times and we were not able to order for over 20-30 minutes. The second order we made took another 20 minutes to come out. Spoke to Josh (manager on shift) and while he was helpful in hearing me out I am still disappointed. I am going to have to reconsider returning to this location.

2023-10-08 03:52:34I tried to make a reservation for a party of 15 and was told we needed to make a deposit to hold the table. No biggie. Except they wouldn’t take a card over the phone or online. We live two hours away and so I wasn’t able to go down there prior to our celebration day to make the deposit in person. We tried to get a manager on the phone and was refused repeatedly. Finally they said they would email us the credit card form for the deposit. 24 hours went by and it never arrived. We tried calling the restaurant again to get the form emailed and ensure our reservation, but after an hour of being left on hold, we hung up and gave up. Made our reservation deposit free at a different korean bbq establishment without incident. They didn’t want our business and was rude about it. I wish I had the chance to give them a better review.

2023-12-05 00:15:24Worst Experience ever at GEN ! Use to be our favorite spot but now on a Monday afternoon you can’t get something simple like the appetizers . Waited over 32 minutes to get Rice & Appetizers. When we finally got the Rice it was COLD. In an hour we only got two rounds of meat. We had to keep repeatedly ask them for refills and another order of food . Soo disappointing we’ve been coming here for years .

2023-10-09 11:12:13Chris R is the best server there! We have been many times, and since having him, we only go when he is working. Very attentive, helpful in what to order lol and good character. He is the only reason we have wanted to go back :)
