Food is good and a little bit pricey but with a good ambiance, a big and spacious place, with a band playing live music. Service is good but a bit slow, staff are friendly and courteous

Given the price and the food. It’s not worth it for a korean grill buffet. Meat are so bland, the seafood and everything are tasteless. I will not recommend this to anyone. Mas okay pa sa ibang korean grill restaurants.

Our experience here is wonderful! The staff are willing to assist you, Food are outstanding, we chose the 1499++ premium set. I would say that it’s really worth it!! Premium steak and meat + Unli iced tea. Their sauce matches the premium meats unlike other samgyup restaurants.They also have a band which gives additional boost to the beauty of place. Please expect some delays in receiving your request, so before all of your meat is cooked, if you are still hungry. Order ahead of time. Rest assured some delays will be compensated with the great taste of food.Worth trying!

High price for not so high quality food and service, plus there was a limited time so did not like my stay that much at this bbq house. I think people just go here to drink the free booze that comes with the eat all you can that they offer. I dont know. Thumbs down for the taste and service. Im sorry.The comfort room/ toilet was dirty and not properly maintained.

Recommend availing of the much higher priced buffet since you get to taste of everything that they offer.I really recommend order some of their steaks included in their buffet.Service was quick and great, especially since it was kinda full with other patrons when we visited.

The food was great, the cons here was the service and the attitude of the crews towards us was worstttttt than yall could imagine. We paid for unli bbq, but treated us as if we ordered our food individually. Every time we ordered meat, they took so loooonngggg to serve it on us. I suggest you try other korean bbq. The service here was really disappointing.

I enjoyed the side dishes more than the main dishes. The meats are of not great quality. Too thinly sliced and chewy for the beef. The marinated pork tastes strong to me.The servers were very attentive to my requests tho.Main dishes I recommend are the following:1. Premium Chadol (Premium Angus brisket)2. Calamari Steak3. Signature Fried Chicken Wings4. Soy Glazed Chicken Wings1. Premium Chadol is the most delicious meat I tasted. Too bad that its really tough and chewy.2. Calamari steak tastes good. Its tender.3. Signature Fried Chicken Wings tastes good. Its crispy and juicy.4. Soy Glazed Chicken Wings is my favorite. It oddly tastes like adobo to me.Their cheese side dish has a distinct taste and I ordered a few. I also liked their potato side dish although I preferred it plain but its not offered. Same goes with their lettuce but they offer a plain lettuce.Thank you for the experience.Features:✅ Credit card✅ Parking✅ Restroom✅ Wheelchair accessible entrance

Yes, this is one expensive restaurant compared to others if you are craving for korean BBQ or Samgyupsal. However, youll have a big space for grilling and youll sit in a couch instead of a chair. Plus, you wont smell the smoke from your clothes since the exhaust here is far better than the usual ones. The ambience is also sophisticated.

Expensive. Cheapest rate is about Php1800 for 2, including service charge for their 798pesos meal per person. Side dish is only 4 plus a lettuce salad and cheese sauce. You can only order for 2 hours and no left-over on ordered meats, even uncooked ones. But I guess we paid more because of the location. We found a better Korean Restaurant which was cheaper but has a variety of good side dishes and good meat, and only about Php1,000 for 2. But props to the nice staff and spacious restaurants of GEN.

Food is not good at all! The beef is hard, the ox intestine smells and chewy, the spicy meat is a big no-no! The prize is not worth its value. They have few to none choices.the only thing good in them is the ambience and the plating. Other than that, I regret celebrating occasions here.

It was a rainy afternoon when we headed to GEN Korean BBQ House to have our team dinner. Upon arrival, the security guard immediately approached us and handed over 2 big umbrellas to keep us dry. All crew are very welcoming when we entered the dining area.Things that we love with GEN:🖤Excellent customer service from the guard, the crew and the manager🖤High Quality Meat🖤Good Exhaust🖤Clean Comfort Room🖤Romantic AmbianceThings we didnt like:🖤Insufficient and unapppetizing side dishes🖤Limited to one grill per table for 6 persons (This makes us more hungry especially its not an unlimited Korean BBQ experience)If they could improve the side dishes and add at least 1 grill for tables that are good for 6, I might give GEN a perfect 5.Overall, I will still recommend this resto to my friends because of the quality and nicely cut meat that we had here plus the exceptional customer service.

Gen Korean BBQ is really a good place to dine for birthdays, anniversaries or celebrating special days.The place is nice and cozy also accessible, and has spacious parking areas. The staffs are also courteous and accommodating though there was a time that the staff doesnt seem to comprehend what we are asking.The food was good. Serving time wasnt too long.Overall, this place is very nice.

Premium Steak and more!💕 Date for Two: 1488+ Unlimited 35 Premium Meats and Seafoods💌 Total: P2976Overall: SM By The Bay gets crowded for good reasons – the refreshing sound of the water, family-friendly amusement rides, and most importantly – buffets! With a long selection of familiar names in the eat-all-you-can community, one foreign newcomer stood out, and it features a crowd favorite, Korean BBQ. Gen Korean BBQ House originated from the U.S. and they opened their first branch in Asia here in the Philippines.All meats were imported from the U.S. so expect the highest quality of food here.Gen is dim-lighted, something different from its neighboring restaurants that’s bursting with lights. It has this electric retro vibe spacious enough to host huge number of patrons.Each table has its privacy, with a maximum of 8 carnivores can comfortably sit.We went all in and tried their most expensive promo, the 1488+ Unlimited 35 U.S. Premium Meats and Seafoods. This also comes with bottomless wines, cocktails, beers, sodas, and juices.The banchan selection was not that much but was just enough. We’ve planned to focus and reserve the space of our tummies for the meats after all. 35 whopping meats, guys!Let the grillin begin!Although there’s a lot to choose from , we’re pretty sure we won’t be able to try out everything.We’ve had the Premium Steak, Gen Yangnyum Galbi, Red Wine Samgyupsal, Hawaian Bacon, Samgyupsal, Cajun Shrimps, and Garlic Chicken. We also got several salads and greens for the vegetable platter.Actually, upon grilling, there were a lot of chances that we never got to identify which is which, though notable meats we’ve adored were the Premium Steak, Red Wine Samgyupsal and Garlic Chicken. We still wanted to have more refills of these but we’re already full.Another thing, we definitely took advantage of the bottomless wine. We cannot count how many times we got this refilled. That much, for sure!We’ve also tried one of their cocktails but we still went back for the back. It wasn’t that spectacular but it was good enough to pair with the Premium Steak and the other meats.And oh, we’re so pleased with the band! We think this was the highlight of our night as well. Their service needs improvement though. We were seated somewhere in the far corner of the resto so we were not seen well by their servers. Better to sit next to the cashier or near the kitchen. But hey, we’re close to the band so yey! No more complaints. Lol, kidding.Value for money: This may seem too expensive than usual. However, if you’re a premium bbq/steak aficionado, you’ll get your money’s worth here. You might even find this one cheaper than the expensive steak houses and grills. If youre craving for just samgyupsal, then the usual kor bbq places might be just for you.#DateForTwo at GEN Korean BBQ House

Went here twice already and the food is absolutely delish. They serve fresh and good quality meat which is better than other korean restaurants. However, their service could be better. Had the same problem with my 2 visits. Orders were messed up and they placed me with something that I dont eat. Good thing they didnt charged me for left overs. Apart from that, ambience is good and the place looks real fresh and new.

Went here to meet few friends over dinner. It’s a bit pricey to have 999 pesos as their minimum buffet cost excluding drinks.It was my first time here though and it was a pleasant experience. Food is good and prime cuts (hence the price, maybe). The service is good as well, they’re happy to assist you with anything you need. Keeps replacing the grill.We had an incident though where we found a tiny worm on our salad. We weren’t really annoyed but a supervisor assured us it will be investigated. We got our mojito drink off the bill for it.Did I mention there was also a live band?

Not worth it. Ate there on a Thursday night. Two options: 998 (doesnt include steaks), 1,288 (includes steaks). We got the 1,288, only to find out when we were seated that the premium steaks were not available, only the Hawaiian steak. Not available also two kinds of chicken and one kind of samgyumpsal. I only liked the Chadol. After awhile, everything else starts to taste the same.

Fresh and yummy Korean food. High quality meat and seafood meal. Service is good, very accomodating, a little pricey but worth it. What I dont like is the dark ambience, I wanted to see my food in a well lighted environment, and the place is a little warm even if there are air conditioning units. Overall, it is a nice and good to try with friends. The food flourish on meats and not on vegetables. They lack on desserts and only limited drinks to choose from.

The meat, so buttery, so juicy, not too spicy. It cost almost 1,000.00 ( 998.00 per head). But really worth it. The place was clean and spacious. Barely any smoke went in my hair! I love the food, I can say I ate like the entire cow when I was there..gotta come back. I love GEN Korean BBQ!

Out of the korean buffet restaurants I have been to , this one is the best...as of now hahaha Premium meats with variety of choices from beef, pork, and chicken. They also have seafood and ox intestines. Their banchan is great and i like their tofu soup. Servers are also friendly. Specially our server, Maj! She is very accommodating and attentive. My grandmother enjoyed our dining here. Very recommended. Though the price is expensive, the food and service is great!

Korean lunch or dinner buffet with different meat (pork/beef/chickenoptions. Unlike the usual korean buffet, you can order marinated meats. They also have some seafood, salad, soup and japchae included in the buffet. Drinks are not included. There is a limit of 4 meats per order (to avoid leftoversand they change the grill pan often, so that you wont have to grill over charred meat. Lunch is less expensive than the dinner option since they serve more during dinner including steaks. The place is big and well ventilated. There is plenty of parking space when we came over (Valentines weekday lunch buffetand we got a free brownie (which I would be willing to pay for if theyre selling itfor dessert. Price indicated on the photos.

For big groups who love buffets or Korean barbecue, this is the place to go. For only P798 during weekday (lunch: 11 am to 3 pmand P1288 on weekday dinner or weekend lunch or dinner (dinner: 3 pm to 12 midnight), youll get a taste of their US meats unlimited together with their side dishes, rice, and soda/juice. Absolutely value for money!.Their 500-seater restaurant is located along the bayside of the Mall of Asia Complex. The interior is classy with good ventilation so you wont smell like grilled meat when you go out..Among the meats, we liked the pork cheek and all their beef servings best. The pork cheek is amazingly tasty and has very little to no fat. The beef are also tasty and tender especially the one with the cajun sauce..Most of all, their staff are very diligent in replacing your grill and helping you cook though they promote DIY. They are also quick in serving the meats and drinks.
