Then use it for several meals with the included garlic naan and salad. I make my own white basmati rice and enjoy every serving. My recent visit here saw several changes. There is a new owner and chef, something I questioned, after indulging in a sit down, for the buffet selections of the day. Very noticeably, there was shrimp curry, a feature generally not seen in buffets. That too, it was small shrimp, scarcely distributed in the curry and definitely from a frozen packet (I confirmed that with the chef). Strikingly absent at this location, was the daily fixture of lamb curry, which in the past, was tender boneless pieces, swimming in a thick intoxicating gravy. Instead, the only meat selection was chicken in more than one version. The tikka masala, the curry, the tandoori. The latter was exceptional and better than in previous times. The vegetables were standard and just okay. The pakora appetizer easily surpassed the samosas. Unfortunately, the pappar (lentil wafer) was baked, not roasted on the fire, or even fried. An important touch for the marriage of crunch and flavor that was lacking. The fresh garlic naan, the raita and the chutneys were all super. Service, with the same server as before, was timely, friendly and most attentive.

When we sat down, our server already had waters for the table, was ready to take our orders, and even gave recommendations. She was super attentive and came to check on us often for grill changes, additional meat orders, or to just bring us more banchan. Food: All the meats we ordered were really good quality. We ordered the brisket, beef belly, pork belly, thinly sliced pork belly, short rib, and LA kalbi. If you can, I'd definitely recommend upgrading to the C menu for the short rib and LA kalbi, but both the A and B menus have the usual classics. The banchan was also really good. We got multiple refills of the japchae, kimchi, fish cake, and radish.

Absolutely Outstanding -- Ask for Sam & Xavier!…read more We brought a party of 27 to GEN Korean BBQ on a busy Friday night, and the experience was exceptional. A group that large could easily become chaotic, but Manager Sam Peñalosa and our server Xavier went above and beyond to make the entire evening smooth, fun, and memorable. Sam deserves serious recognition. You could see her leadership throughout the night. She was present, attentive, checking on our group, supporting his team, and making sure 27 people were taken care of. That kind of hands-on leadership creates the atmosphere customers feel..and her company should be proud to have her representing GEN. And Xavier was a rockstar! Twenty-seven guests means nonstop orders, questions, refills, requests, and moving parts. He handled everything with patience, energy, professionalism, and a great attitude. Never made us feel rushed or like our large group was too much. Instead, he made us feel genuinely welcomed. The food was great, but Sam and Xavier are the reason we'll be coming back. Service like this turns a dinner into an experience and customers into repeat customers. If you're coming to GEN, ask for Sam and Xavier. We certainly will when we return. To GEN leadership: take care of these guys. They're doing your brand proud. Thank you, Sam and Xavier, for taking such great care of all 27 of us. You earned some loyal customers!

I've had some pretty bad experiences here, but today takes the cake. I joined the waitlist through…read moreYelp, and it didn't take long to get seated. We sat down and waited at least 10 minutes just to be acknowledged, with no apology for the wait. We placed our order for two waters and one Coke. Our server came back with one water and two Cokes, and when we pointed out the extra Coke, she told us we could just keep it. Cool. We then waited another 10-15 minutes for the second water. We also weren't given scissors when we were initially seated, so I asked for a pair so we could cut up our meats and actually start eating. I also asked for a fork for my sister. She came back with the scissors and a spoon because they were "washing the forks right now." Needless to say, we never got the fork. On top of all of that, the vents at our table weren't working properly, so instead of the smoke being pulled away from the grill, I was basically inhaling it throughout the meal. Anyone who's been to KBBQ knows how much smoke comes off the grill, so having ventilation that actually works is pretty important. It made an already frustrating experience even more uncomfortable. Throughout the meal, the service continued to be extremely inattentive. It felt like we constantly had to wait or ask for basic things that should have already been provided. Then when we got the bill, we were charged for both Cokes. It's not about the extra $3, it's the principle. We ordered ONE Coke. The second one was brought to us by mistake, and our server specifically told us we could keep it. If we had been told we were going to be charged for it, we obviously would have sent it back. Charging us afterward for something we never ordered and were told to keep just left a really bad taste in my mouth. Between waiting to even be acknowledged, waiting for water, never receiving the utensils we asked for, sitting at a table with vents that weren't working, and then being charged for the server's mistake, the entire experience was disappointing. I've given this place multiple chances despite having poor experiences here before, but after today, I really don't see myself coming back.

I thought I had already left a review, but I guess I hadn't!…read more I always make a point to stop by this place for takeout because I love their cooking. It's much better than many of the other Filipino restaurants I've tried in the Valley. Their food isn't overly greasy like some other Filipino places, and everything is always fresh and flavorful.

Ed was the one who prepared my order and he was friendly, helpful, and courteous, making the experience even better. So far, I've tried the dinuguan, chicken tinola, egg rolls, adobong pusit, and sinigang, and every dish has been absolutely delicious! The only downside is that they're about 25 miles from me.

The second time we had visited we hoped to try the BBQ, which was there the first time, but it seemed like they didn't have any, so it looks like we'll have to come back again to try it! As someone who knows alot of the dishes there, I think it's easy for me to decide what I want, but I do think it might be helpful to have name cards on the food area or on the glass so those who are newer to Filipino food may at least know the names of the foods they're looking at. I really enjoy the food & will definitely continue to come back here! Who knows, we may have them at our wedding!

I believe lunch time pricing is around $30. You get 90 mins and a set menu. You can pay for premium à la carte items as well! I thought the inside was interesting because it had an industrial, open feel/layout with a few arcade games. Also there's a bar area! It's been super hot in the valley and it didn't feel like there was air conditioning in there. It could've been a mix of the weather and all the pits going on, but it was unfortunate because it made me uncomfortable during my visit. The spicy bulgogi was very tasty and cooked super fast. I enjoyed the sides they brought out. The spicy garlic noodles had a nice kick but lacked in overall flavor. They were thicker noodles than what I am used to, but texture was fine. The gyoza was extra crispy/fried. I liked the vegetable tempura but I didn't get a good variety of veggies. I thought it was mid and expensive for what was offered. Perhaps I'd give it another shot but during lunch. Parking is nice because it's a shared shopping center lot. Plenty of spots available.

First time coming here and I was genuinely impressed. This is easily one of the best Indian kitchens in the valley. Every dish we tried was packed with flavor, fresh, and cooked really well. You can tell they use quality ingredients and put care into their food.

The atmosphere felt welcoming and comfortable, which made the whole experience even better. I'll definitely be coming back to try more items on the menu.

It's reasonable to assume that Thursdays all you can eat are leftover combinations from weekend preps. In terms of service, gap between the servings was over 10-11 minutes, and at the second serving, desserts were brought out when not asked for. Chutneys: not served unless asked for. Everything was off. The floor manager walked over and hinted at us leaving; not asking how the food was but when are you leaving vibe. Ambience has been like it was pre Covid. Not many customers on a weekday but that is perhaps because of demographics in the area. Weird thing about them trying to kick us out was that the restaurant wasn't even crowded but maybe becuase costs from our table were maxed out. Oh yes they also had a vegetable biryani as an appratizer which was served without raita of course. Overall, the place used to be great. Maybe still is but opt to go on weekends when it's crowded and food is maybe fresh.
