    Excellent dinning experience. A plethora of all kinds of meats and food to grill to your liking. Lots of different condiments to try. Nice and responsive staff. Definitely demands a return soon!

    We had the best time! This was our first time to a Korean BBQ and it was great! We went around 12:30 on a Saturday and were seated right away. The table and seating was comfortable. The hostess and waiter both explained the menu very well. We opted to try the premium option. And the total ended up being a little more than $100 for two people plus tip. It's unlimited food for 2 hours. Everything was great!! I have zero complaints the wait staff was very friendly and the flavor of all the food was great. I can't wait to go back

    This is a restaurant in my first visit. I've been to several grid barbecue restaurants in this little different. Other restaurants there was a bar filled many types of meat, seafood, vegetables, etc., that you will select from and bring back to your table to prepare on the grill. Here you select the meat from a menu in which they served the meat from to the table. There are so many options. For a set price it's all you can eat, which includes cooked appetizers and meat selections. The quality of the food and service was great. The restaurant is dimly lit, clean and lightly decorated. Good dining experience.

    SOFT OPENING REVIEW: GEN KOREAN BBQ IN EL PASO We finally tried Gen KBBQ during their soft opening -- and here's everything you need to know before you go: Pricing Lunch AYCE (Monday-Thursday until 3PM): $20.95 (34 items) Dinner AYCE (after 3PM, weekends, and holidays): $31.95 (47 items) Premium AYCE: Add $20 for wagyu, short ribs, and other upgraded cuts Our total for two with Premium and appetizers came out to $118 -- well worth it for the amount and quality of food. There's a 2-hour limit per table, and everyone must order from the same menu tier. It's fair and helps keep things moving for other diners. What We Loved Chadol (brisket) Pork Jowl Wagyu Sweet Garlic Short Ribs Beef Belly and Short Plate The sweet garlic marinade paired with the sesame soy dipping sauce was absolutely delicious. There were no rice paper wraps (due to supply issues), but the pickled radish worked just fine. We also missed the steamed egg -- likely removed due to high egg prices, which is understandable. Service The staff was friendly and attentive. Most of them were corporate trainers, but they're actively working to train local hires. Our grill's heat kept fluctuating throughout the meal, likely due to insufficient gas pressure to supply all the tables. Some of our meats didn't get as crispy as we would have liked, but the staff was very responsive and comped our drinks as a courtesy. The soju was refreshing and paired really well with the grilled meats -- definitely recommend it. As someone who's missed Korean BBQ from Southern California and other big cities, I'm genuinely excited to have a place like this in El Paso. If they can maintain the quality and work out the kinks, I can see Gen becoming a local favorite in no time. Location: 1319-I George Dieter Dr, El Paso, TX 79936

    So my wife and I had just returned from LV and visited this restaurant up there and enjoyed it so we anticipated the locale here. Our son even asked if we were going to the soft opening but due to work we didn't make it until I returned. We went during lunch and it wasn't crazy packed, we were quickly seated and since we knew how it worked we were eager to eat. We had a great team of servers taking care of us and they made sure we never lacked drinks, food condiments or protein and it was so so good. We ate till we couldn't eat and rolled out of there so content. We highly recommend this restaurant and hopefully you experience great service as well. Our server informed us he is from Jacksonville Florida and was here training and we informed him we are traveling to Orlando soon so maybe we are him down there as well.

    Love this place. We have them back in Los Angeles. This one has pastor and asada which we don't have. Need a bigger sign or billboard so people know where they are at...

    This is our 4th time coming and the waiter Elijah has been one of the best and stands out. We have had a few not so great waiters here but everytime it's Elijah , it has been great. He is always helpful and attentive. He has made our time here worth coming back to and we enjoy our time here. The food has always been very delicious and we recieve our food pretty quickly. I reccomend for sure!

    My family and I are visiting from California. We've eaten at other Gen Korean BBQ locations and were excited to try this one. I didn't realize we ended the soft opening, but it was a great experience. Our waiter was very attentive, the meat portion sizes were big, and all the food came out in a timely manner. My parents said this was the best Gen they've been to, so it's safe to say we had an enjoyable experience. The ambiance gives a nightclub environment, but it's clean and very spacious. I hope this location has a fantastic opening day!

    Everything was great! The server was super helpful and let us know beforehand what they were short of! We went on a busy Sunday after new years so it made sense they were sold out of stuff. He guided us with other options and we loved everything! The food is always delicious here, I reccomend getting some radish wraps and samjaang for your meat!!!

    Having been to Korea quite a few times, I can honestly say this chicken is pretty close to the…read moreauthentic Korean flavors I've experienced there. This was my first time visiting, and I'm really glad I decided to give it a try. The chicken was really good. It was crispy, juicy, and well seasoned, and I went with the sweet and savory sauce, which paired really well with the chicken. I also ordered the ramen noodles, and they have a pretty cool setup where you can use a machine to add the hot water and cook your own noodles. It was something different and made the experience a little more fun. There was a pretty good crowd inside during my visit, with quite a few people dining in. After trying the food, I can definitely understand why. The restaurant was clean, had nice decor, and there was plenty of seating. They also have a bar area with seating and a selection of adult beverages. Overall, I had a really good first experience here. The food was flavorful, the atmosphere was nice, and the place had a good energy without feeling overcrowded. I'll definitely be back to try some of the other menu options.

    First time trying this restaurant AND Korean BBQ. The wings were delicious! Crispy on the outside…read morebut tender and juicy in the inside, and they were huge wings. I asked the server to recommend a spicy sauce, and my friends wanted non-spicy, and we were able to sample the sauces so we could make a good choice, which was very helpful. The fries were crispy, and both were good, the sweet potato fries were flavorful. They had TVs showing the World Cup games, staff was friendly, restaurant was clean and had a nice chill vibe. Highly recommended!

The rolls here are much bigger in size than most places and it felt like it was harder to eat without it just falling apart. It was my coworkers first time trying sushi and sadly it didn't really impress him much. I also picked this place due to the reviews but it seems like the name has been changed and maybe the business owner as well because it's now called Sushi Gang. I would say my favorite thing was the Eel nigiri. The dragon roll didn't meet my expectations from other Dragon rolls I had before. The Golden California roll was better than the Dragon roll. The staff was nice but they recommended something else to try and honestly it was very good. I don't even remember what it was but it was like a rice ball. I can't say I would go back here but give it a try and see if it meets your expectations. They seem to short staffed and that could be what went wrong that day but not sure.

    I went with my family to the East Side to do some shopping for my son's Birthday. After we…read morefinished, since he wanted sushi, we looked for a place nearby in Apple Maps. When we arrived, we did not know what to expect (we even looked into the place in order to decide if we were staying or living). WHAT A SURPRISE!!!! The food (all of it) was SPECTACULAR. VERY fresh and tasty. The prices? I still cannot believe we ate so much delicious food for that amount of money. My wife wanted a Salmon Steak. They did not have the right sauce and therefore the dish was not in the menu. I asked if they could do a grilled salmon instead without the sauce. They did. My wife thinks it is probably the best salmon she had since we moved to El Paso. We are definitely going back often.
