Review Gen Korean Bbq House - Honolulu

Hailey Dunn
Love this place! The manager was super sweet and helped us cook the ox intestine (since we had never had it and it was her favorite), and everything was so delicious! The servers were super attentive and accommodating for our large group of 15. Definitely worth the money for all you can eat for 2 hours.

You know what I love about this place is the price, quality, and the varieties of the meats/food you can order. I came here the first time years ago, then didn’t return here for a long time until a fiend of mine visiting from Korea invited me to go eat here. It’s funny a Korean guy from Korea wanted to eat here, and even more funny was we went back there again 6 months later when he came back, but this time he had mentioned “why do I have to eat Korean food in Hawaii?” But at the end of meal, “This place is good”. lol 😂. I’ve always done the all you can eat option. ~$30 dinner $20 lunch. Bottomless Soft drinks are $4. I’m always too busy eating here and no time to take photos of the delicious looking meats that come out. But I had one picture from last time, and this visit. The pork belly I think is one of the best. They have few different pork belly, Original(plain), smoked, garlic, and wine. I had the original and smoked. I can’t say I liked the smoked one, it seemed like they poured liquid smoke on the meat. But it was all good. Shrimp, beef belly, beef bulgogi, were also good. bit spicy, but the sondubu Jjiae, is so flavorful. Make sure you order the salad and the radish wraps. And wrap your meat in them. The lunch price is awesome, however it has few less items than dinner time. Beef Kalbi for example is not on the lunch menu. The servicer are always checking your table, and you’ll never run out of food in between. And two hour seating time is more than enough time to eat. If they had some desert options at the end they would get 6 stars. ⭐️ Be aware, you will leave this place with your entire clothing, hair and skin smelling like Korean BBQ. Bring your bottle Febreze.

Heard on the radio that the lunch buffer was under $20 so we we.t to check it out, only to find out that the price is only good on Monday-Thursday! It was a Friday, so it's full dinner menu and price. What a sticker shock for lunch but we stayed anyways. I was so incredibly stuffed that I skipped dinner that night! Good for 2 meals in 1 for me! Highly recommended the brisket, as they're quick to cook and easy to eat a ton of. The hawaiian steak is a no-brainer, and the shrimp was pretty darn tasty! Weird that there's no host to check in with. It's just a QR code you scan to put your name in. Even at the table tou have to scan anothe QR code to view their menu! Times sure have changed! The staff was very patient with us and super friendly, which was a plus! Come here only if you're starving!

We ordered food and the waiter was no where to be seen for good 15 min but otherwise the food was great. Cooking your own makes it that much more great experience overall. Def a place to go with hungry eaters!

Really great go-to place for eating out with a group of friends! Went during the weekday around dinner time so each person had to pay about ~$35 (including tip) so the price was not that bad. The food quality was really good, especially their Bulgogis, side salad, garlic chicken, and the briskets. In addition, you can get a Shirley Temple for cheap and have free refills (I do not know if you can get free refills for other drinks but you can ask as the servers are really chill and nice)! My only main complaint was how hot it was and I do not know if it’s because of all the barbecuing, but my group and I were sweating a lot. Would definitely come again though! (P.S. there were no desserts when we went)

Dinner special for $29 per person all you can eat BBQ. The spicy pork bulgogi and calamari was my favorite. Must try there special crazy sauce which goes well with whatever protein you are grilling.

Very nice looking restaurant and layout, very good cuts of meat! No pressure to leave. We ordered alot for 2 people to test this place out. Very nice waitress and friendly her name is JADE.

What can I say we go here way to often. 😂 the meat selection is vast and the service is always top notch. The ventilation is awesome and the servers are always on top of changing out grills as needed!

Food was good quality, but the thing that stuck out the most was the service. We had a large group, and our servers stayed on top of what we needed for the entire hour and a half we were there. As for the atmosphere it just wasn't my style (Dark with neon blue lighting). Overall, it was a good first experience.

Great food, the staff was amazing.... Everything seems to be fast paced, be yet easy going at the same time. It took a little bit for our grills to heat up, but once it did we were ready to go. Make sure that what you order you're ready to eat, because there's a potential they will charge you for wasting..... Other than that, I would definitely go there again.... Great atmosphere, great music, and great staff.

We came in around Wednesday at 3pm. There was no wait time which was great! All of the meats were delicious and juicy. Very prompt service and the staff made it our great last night in Oahu. Will definitely come back here!!

5 stars for its quality, variety, service and price. We didn't expect much as it's all-you-can-eat but we were blown away. It's so good and affordable that we went back there twice during our stay. Go early to avoid long wait!

The food here is amazing! The staff is very friendly and helpful. We tried many of the items on the menu. I really liked that they give you smaller portions of each food so you have the opportunity to try many different things. If you find one item you like in particular, you can order as much as you would like to eat. You are given salad, rice and sides along with dipping sauces for your meats. We were told the wait would be 45 minutes when we arrived, but we actually only waited 20 minutes. Don't let the approximate wait time deter you from trying this place!
