Customer Reviews
Gen Korean BBQ in Tukwila is a lively AYCE spot that works well for groups. The pork belly was very good and the Hawaiian steak stood out as well, both grilling up nicely. Appetizers are skippable and not the main draw here. Expect crowds and possible waits during peak times, but it’s solid value if you focus on the meats.
Don’t come! Don’t buy the gift card from Costco for this store! We take the premium menu, however the beef tongue is run out of stock for the day and the waiter never tell us before it. Wagyu beef is super disappointing, it’s thin with absolutely no texture and I doubt it contains any wagyu. All the flavored meat are really sweet! If you have already buy the gift card or already sitting in the restaurant then I recommend you to take non marinated meat like beef briskets, pork belly. Also you are only allowed to order 4 meat each round, waitress seldom come to ask for more order
David is my favorite server here. This place is worth the wait if there is one. I do recommend look up what youd like before hand to make it as easy as possible. I truly do recommend the Hawaiian steak seriously delicious. The sides always come so u cant fight it. The atmosphere is nice, it can be loud so if you are overly stimulated easily come during opening. The staff is very polite, the food is good. I mean you get to cook it how you see fit so there's no complains how it is cooked. The liquor is delicious, the punch bowl is well worth the $20. The adult Capri suns are great as well. Love my visits here.
I wish I read the reviews, but I decided to give this place the benefit of the doubt. Food was not worth it. There were more than 10 people on staff but it felt like only two people were actually working the floor. Our poor server was taking orders from the whole resturant. He and Sheyden were the only people who tried to take care of our table but were spread thin. We should have left when we first came in. The hostesses straight up ignored us. Anytime the hostess Lilly interacted with anyone she acted Ike they were less than dirt. And looked like she was actively avoiding doing her job and didn't want to help her coworkers. It was very concerning. I used to manage a serving staff and I can only imagine how stressed management must be. In summery the food was not good. Though they had
I’ve been here multiple times and this will be the last one since it seems like nothings gonna change - service is always slow, seemed understaffed, every time i go i wait 30+ minutes just to have the order taken. This isn’t the first time this has happened which is why I’m writing a review, but again today we definitely had rotten seafood - the shrimp had black spots all over it and was clearly bad or super old, smelled extremely fishy. The sides are not great and everything else is really mid compared to what you pay for. I never write negative reviews but I promise this place isn’t worth your time or money.
