Had a lovely going away meal with my girlfriends. It was my first time there, but they had been there many times. I enjoyed cooking the meats.

We got there around 18 and the wait was 55 to 70 minutes which was not a lie. There are two all you can eat options, A1 and A2. We ordered A1 which included the first 11 foods and the rest which was on A2. Our conclusion was that A2 foods were much better than the ones included in A1 so it’s smarter to order A2 and pay less and still get the good stuff. We had almost all of the available menu and #22 was our favorite. They didn’t have hot sake which was a bummer. The staff were friendly and helpful as well.

$27.99 for AYCE Korean bbq. We like Manna because they have the thick rice paper and sliced pickled radishes to wrap my grilled meats and salad in.
We like the thin beef belly slices, spicy chicken, galbi, Hawaiian pork belly, and Manna steak.
The manna steak was a little tough this time so it's hit or miss.

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Manna BBQ in Mira Mesa, and I must say, it was an exceptional experience from start to finish. The restaurant's inviting atmosphere, coupled with the tantalizing aromas of Korean barbecue, immediately set the stage for an unforgettable meal. The service was impeccable; the staff was attentive, friendly, and knowledgeable about the menu, making excellent recommendations that heightened our dining experience. The variety of meats and side dishes provided an extensive selection to suit all tastes, and the quality of the ingredients was truly top-notch. The highlight of the evening was undoubtedly the barbecue itself. The meats were incredibly flavorful and expertly prepared, allowing us to savor each bite. The interactive nature of Korean barbecue, where we could grill our own meats to our liking, added an element of fun and excitement to the meal. The side dishes, including the kimchi and other banchan, perfectly complemented the barbecue and added a delightful contrast of flavors to the meal. Manna BBQ in Mira Mesa exceeded my expectations in every way. The combination of delectable food, outstanding service, and inviting ambiance made for a truly memorable dining experience. I highly recommend Manna BBQ to anyone looking for an exceptional Korean barbecue experience and can't wait to return for another delightful meal.

It's fun, it's great, it's meat. Some of the staff are the best and so attentive. Others are not very attentive. You are more likely to get a table at this location compared to Convoy. They do a yelp waitlist when you get there, but it moves. And unlike Convoy, you can easily walk to Target or other shops to kill some of that wait time.

Thoroughly enjoyed my experience! Compared to larger restaurants, dining was great for family versus nearly yelling to someone sitting across from yourself. Nothing beats cooking at home so I'm biased when it comes to flavor, I could go for more but dipping the meat in their various options made up for it. Definitely would go back.

I've been coming to this restaurant for four years and it's always a good time. The food is always great and the atmosphere and customer service is great. I highly recommend if you're looking for a Kbbq restaurant.

I have been going in here for 4 years. It's my #1 restaurant to go to.
All you can eat.
2 types of menus (a few bucks difference)
Drinks are at price per bottle or can.
Up to 4 people will get 1 grill. 6 and more will be seated on a 2 stove table.
Great service, and a push call button.
Silverware is available.
Update: With all the shortages and peoblems that are going on, they still serve the best meats.

Great food, and friendly staff.
Unfortunately I took take out but the food was amazing.
Great beef and the kimmchi was delicious and spicy.
Food was priced fair and the serving sides were delicious.
If you are looking for a great Korean BBQ I highly reccomend manna BBQ.
I will be bringing the family back for the full sit down experience soon.

Good option if you’re craving for Korean BBQ. Staff were extremely nice and meat was good. Could definitely be one of my go to Korean BBQ places if I lived in the area.
Bon Kramer
I love Joy and all staff so attentive. Great food and wow so full ..their sauce and meat and tofu soup 😋
Evan Johnson
Excellent food choices. I highly suggest the premium menu if you can spare the couple extra dollars. Ribeye is amazing and tender, the short ribs are also delicious. I've never had a bad time here and I've been going for two years now. The beef to guess is worth a try as well as the baby octopus.

I don't always eat meat but when I do, I go to Manna. This is probably my third time here and it gets better each time. I'm already drooling and I barely started writing this review. I remember coming in for the first time and saw the menu. For me, prices are a bit higher than all other AYCE Korean bbq we've ever gone too. Which didn't bother me becuase we live nearby and it out ways the inconvenience of driving to Convoy, and looking for a parking spot. Most of all, their meats are by far the best quality we've ever had.
I'll base this review from our third visit. It was my Hubby's bday and I called on a Monday around noon for reservation for nine people (7 adults & 2 kids) at 6 pm. The lady on the phone was nice and gladly took down my information. I also told her that a couple of people might be late and she said; it's okay, no problem, we'll still sit you guys right away. That was surprising to hear becuase most restaurant won't seat you till the whole party is there. Maybe becuase it's on a weekday but still, it was nice to hear.
Onto the meat review:
The steamed egg soup was perfect, not salty at all. Prime rib was tender, briskets were delicious, pork belly went straight to my belly, squid was fresh, beef finger rib meat was gone in 60 seconds, and 1 hour later we were satisfied.

This place is literally open 365 days a year. If you need a hit of K BBQ, this is the place to go to during the holidays! The service was very good, very friendly staff. The place isn't too Smokey, good ventilation. A decent meal will cost you less than $30 , all you can eat. The spicy pork belly was not as flavorful as we thought it would be. But the ribeye was very good!
Robert Herrera
What a awesome place. Busy with workers from table to table. Great and delicious food. Huge variety of meats. Plenty to choose from. From the friendly staff, very helpful for the first timers. Bring your appetite for this one. You definitely won't go hungry at this place.

You must go! try: Manna steak, noodles and Korean corn cheese it’s the best

My go to kbbq place in San Diego!! Service is speedy, you might have to flag down a server (via button or calling them over to your table) because the place seems busy. Everything here is EXACTLY how I like it. The rice paper isn't too starchy tasting like most places, the steamed egg pot was delicious, the side dishes are flavorful (pairs with the food perfectly), and the meat quality is better than most places! Would definitely go again. There wasn't a line on a Friday around 5 but as soon as 6 rolled around, there was a line & waitlist!
