If Korean BBQ is all about abundance, flavor, and the experience of gathering around a sizzling grill, Manna BBQ delivers on all three fronts. This meal was a satisfying all-you-can-eat feast that balances quality meats, traditional Korean side dishes, and crowd-pleasing appetizers, topped by superior service from Jimmy. From the moment the food arrived, the presentation set the tone. The table was quickly filled with colorful banchan (Korean side dishes), including kimchi, cucumber salad, bean sprouts, pickled radish, fish cake, and potato salad. While these sides may seem simple, they play an important role in Korean BBQ, providing contrast to the rich grilled meats. The kimchi was fresh and vibrant, with a bright red color with plenty of spice and fermentation. The appetizers looked like a strong start to the meal. The japchae (glass noodles) were well-seasoned, offering a slightly sweet and savory flavor profile. The gyoza had a crisp golden exterior, suggesting a satisfying crunch before giving way to a savory filling. One standout appetizer was the corn cheese--a bubbling skillet of sweet corn and melted cheese that looked indulgent, comforting, and impossible to resist. The fried chicken also deserves mention; the crispy coating was perfectly golden and paired with a vibrant dipping sauce that added a sweet-spicy kick. The real star, however, was the barbecue itself. The platters of raw meat has excellent variety, with beautifully marbled cuts that promised flavor before they even hit the grill. Steak, in particular, was thick-cut and rich, tender and well-marbled. Once grilled, the meat developed an appealing caramelized exterior with just the right amount of char. There is something uniquely enjoyable about cooking your own food, sharing dishes, and pacing the meal at your own speed. The tabletop grill becomes the center of the dining experience, encouraging conversation and making the meal feel more like an event than simply dinner. The restaurant's atmosphere appears casual, clean, and focused on the food. The grill setup was well-integrated into the tables, and the overall dining area looked comfortable without unnecessary distractions. The emphasis remained where it should be: on the endless flow of food. For the price point shown on the menu, the value appears excellent. The combination of unlimited appetizers, numerous beef and pork options, seafood selections, and traditional Korean side dishes offers plenty of variety. Diners can sample multiple proteins and flavors without feeling restricted to a single entrée. Whether you're a first-time visitor or a seasoned Korean BBQ enthusiast, this is a meal worth gathering friends and family around the grill for. read more

My friends and I were craving for some kbbq and was recommended to come here. I'm in town visiting and they are locals here so I was excited to see what their service and selection of meats were. Upon arriving, we immediately put down our names and waited no longer than 15 minutes (4 of us total). However, shortly after the line started to back up. I recommend coming around 4 pm to avoid longer wait times. Kelvin and Jimmy both were superstars and gave us top notch service. They made a great team and kept following up to ensure we were always fed or if we needed to replenish our meat order. Not once did we have to wait for the meat to come out. The ambiance is very rowdy and lively. We definitely enjoyed our time here and recommend it for its affordability and quality you pay for it! read more

Manna BBQ is a truly all you can eat Korean bbq. It's not only delicious but also my families go to for celebration dinners. In addition to the meat my kids get fried chicken & dumplings sides and also we get dessert and thaw it on the grill at the end. Cant recommend this place enough. read more

Anytime we want to feast on meats this is our spot. We usually just get bulgogi and other marinated meats, and sometimes the pork belly with the salad and tofu soup. Husband enjoys the fried chicken. Anytime we go there is a wait so be prepared but food comes out quickly and severs are attentive. We have brought a few first timers and they enjoyed it. read more

We waited about 15 minutes to be seated. The staff were kind and very efficient to get us ordered. I'm so confused about the serving size per order, we ordered about 4 kinds of meats a time and each time it came with a great amount of meats but we actually wanted to try small serving for each kind of meat. Maybe we should tell the staff to get only one serving of each kind of meat next time. The food quality was okay, not super great but good for this price. The banchan was average, kimchi was not good. Ramen was a must order. Overall, a good place for meat lovers. read more

First time ever trying Korean BBQ. We enjoyed it. The waiter was very helpful and attentive. He explained everything to us ahead of time and made sure our drinks were refilled, grill plate changed out etc. all of the meats we tried were great. My favorite was probably the marinated boneless short ribs. They bring a large amount of meat out each time so everyone can share. There's a 2 hour time limit but we were done after 90 min we could only eat 3 rounds worth of meat, they give you a lot of meat each time. I will definitely be back. Oh and small kids eat free my son is only 3 and he doesn't eat much so they were fine with him just sharing a few bites. read more

Came here with my fiance for dinner wanted to try this place. Food was so good and delicious and side dishes they bring out is sweet and sour daikon, bean sprout,Kim chi and mash potatoes salad. The only thing I really didnt like is because they didnt have filtered water or a water bottle, was alittle disappointed but they have sparkling water which I really dont like. But overall there beef is good. This place they bring out the beef,chicken,pork and etc to you and cook it urself on the grill. I can say my experience with my waiter glad was excellent I give him a 5 because for his excellent service, very nice, friendly. Vlad went above and beyond for our table. For ambience its like any other restaurant average noise and they have alot of booth table. read more

Upon entering, we were asked to add our phone number and party size on their tablet, which was fine, but the host didn't seem very friendly or acknowledging. Even though the restaurant wasn't that busy, it took about fifteen minutes for us to be seated. Maybe they were cleaning up after a large party, but it still felt a bit slow. Once we were seated, though, the experience improved a lot. Our server was great attentive, friendly, and on top of everything. The food was good as well, and we enjoyed what we ordered. Overall, a slightly rocky start but a solid meal and great service from our server. We'll be back. read more

Good food. Great price. Friendly staff. There is always one lady who turns your burner down but whatever. This place stays busy and I enjoy coming here. The flavor of the food is tasty and I'm never let down. They bring your food out fast and make sure to refill anything you'd like. The meat quality to me is good. I recommend this place. 10/10. read more

I stopped by on this past Friday with my mom and my son and this place is sooo yummy! It is a fun experience as well. The price point is also not bad at all for unlimited food! Eat as much as you can! The service was alright, Server could have been a bit better and more friendly/attentive but it was not horrible. I love the ambiance in here. The tables were clean and food looked amazing! You cook the food yourself and the server brings everything raw to you except the side dishes you choose. We tried the Green Salad which is so good I love the dressing they put in this! I even got a side of cucumbers and put them in the sauce and wow. Delicious! I also get the corn cheese and this is phenomenal! I love it! I already want to go back haha! For the meats we got Chadol Baegi,Teriyaki Chadol, Bulgogi, manna steak, and then also got a side of veggies to grill as well. We got about two rounds of these and got filled up. This is all we tried but we will definitely come back to try other things as well! But these meats were amazing! So freaking yummy!! They also give you a side dish with salt and pepper to season your meats and they give you another sauce to dip your meats in and I'm not exactly sure what that sauce is but highly recommend it! It's delicious pairs very well with the cooked meats. If you have not tried Manna definitely check them out! They do have a 2 hour limit though, they have a sign about it by the front host stand. read more

The place continues to impress me. Great food, service was a bit slow this time, but the beef belly is soooo goood. I won't do much more, check out my older reviews for more comprehensive reviews. I do always appreciate the friendly service and comfy seating. Waits can be annoying, you can only get on the list via the tablet in the place, then you get a text when it's ready. read more

This is one of the best bangs for your buck in Arizona! The plethora of meat and appetizer options for the price can't be beat!

Some of the worst customer service I've ever experienced. As soon as we walked in the door there were 3 employees at the desk who completely ignored us and never greeted us. We eventually figured out that we can check ourselves in for a table. We did that. Hopefully the food is good because based just on initial interaction I would never come back. I don't care how busy you are , if you can't even greet your customers and let them know they can check themselves in and you completely ignore them, that's a problem. read more

We've been coming here for a few years and we've had good service but today VLAD was a great server and very attentive. Food is always on point and they play good music. VLAD keep up the good work man! read more

Wow, what a great experience! Came here around 5pm, signed up wait list on a tablet. There were 17 groups before me. But I was sat in 20 mins. My waiter Emily was super present and attentive. The service was quick. The meats were well seasoned. Even the salad was delicious. Best of all, the price was very reasonable. Will be back soon! read more

Manna BBQ is consistently great. I recommend the beef brisket, beef tongue, and beef belly. I also love the corn cheese and kimchi jjigae. It's definitely one of the more affordable KBBQ options as well. The service is usually fast and I like that they have the grills with built in exhaust so the smoke doesn't get in the air as much. read more

We dined at Manna last night and were initially enjoying our meal. After being seated, we were served our first round of KBBQ meats, and I was especially enjoying the kimchi stew. Unfortunately, on my fourth bite of soup, I found what appeared to be a metal grill bristle wire in the stew. I immediately alerted our waiter and asked to speak with a manager. At that point, my appetite was completely ruined, and my partner and I decided to end our meal and leave. A staff member came over and explained that there was no manager on duty, only a team of leaders, and offered to take a percentage off our bill. While I appreciate the offer, this was a serious health and safety issue that went beyond a simple discount. I expressed concern that the entire pot of stew should be checked immediately to prevent this from happening to another guest. I feel very fortunate that I noticed the wire before accidentally ingesting it, as this could have caused serious injury or complications. I wanted to share this experience so the restaurant understands how serious this incident was and takes steps to ensure it does not happen again. read more

Came in again and since my original rating, we have had good experiences each time. Tonight we came as a family and the kids were very satisfied. We even got one last meat order in as last order was called. Chris, our server, was great and did a wonderful job. The only downside to this visit was the smell of the cleaners as we ate. It kind of overwhelmed the area. The kids compared the smell to a pool. I think it was the bleach they were using... One thing I did appreciate was they had water cups with lids for the kids. The kimchi jjigae that I ordered for the first time here was also very good. read more

Really good Korean BBQ. We have been here many times it is always a super fun experience with friends. They have one of the better drink specials you can get, with a soju bomber and 22oz beer for $10.99. Gyoza is very tasty as well as an appetizer, and the meats are marinated and brought to you to cook yourself. I love the steak bulgogi and pork belly best. Cant wait to return again soon! read more

Service is kind and friendly, low lighting however sets the mood when busy can be loud still able to hear each though, unlimited meat for 2 hours. read more

I arrived around 4:30, and we were seated in under five minutes. Our server was quick to take our orders, bring out our drinks, and was very friendly. I appreciated that the meat portions were generous, allowing us to try a variety of items. We ordered a mix of meats and sides, and everything was delicious. This place is perfect whether you're coming with a couple of friends or a large group. read more

A lot has changed since my last review. There's more items on the menu plus they put back the beef tongue and baby octopus. Ever since I had a bad experience with the kimchi that one time, I'm always a little hesitant when I give it a taste. I'm pleased to say, everything tastes fresh here including the kimchi. The staff is on top of their game with ordering and bringing out food and you don't wait too long in line either. Price did go up again but not a crazy amount. read more

Very busy as it was on a weekend evening time. Appeared maybe they don't have enough people working for how busy it was. I think the price is pretty reasonable for AYCE. I think the meat quality is mediocre, one meat was so chewy that was strange. The service was lacking a little as well. But overall a great experience. Pretty spacious clean environment. read more

Came here based on feedback from the community that this is a much better alternative to GEN. Well that's not the case. The quality of proteins is below par and we found only two items that were actually edible. One time the beef tongue came out pretty tender, second time it was chewy. Service was very good, but the food left a lot to be desired. Will not be coming back. read more

Jimin is super efficient! She really made the experience a breeze. She accommodated the extra specific sides and kept the salads coming as often as the grill changes. We were in and out without smelling like bbq. Our family favs: brisket, boneless short rib galbi, galbi, beef tongue and bulgogi. read more

Food is great and service is great! We love going to Manna BBQ! It's one of the first places we take family and friends when visiting from out of state. Only reason why I rated 4 stars is that I think it is time to renovate or upgrade inside of the restaurant! Other than that, love everything else! read more

AYCE for a great price. Meats were fresh and portion sizes are great, service was kind and hospitable, sides were delicious. When I'm looking for a KBBQ place sides are always top of my list. Eat here, trust me. read more

Great service! We planned our order ahead of time using the photos on Yelp. Our mistake--we didn't realize the photos were outdated, so our initial order was incorrect. Plus, we forgot to double-check the menu when we sat down. Fortunately, our server and another staff member were kind enough to correct our order and take back the wrong dishes. They were so nice about it. Not grumpy at all! We dined in on a Monday. With just a few parties ahead of us, we were seated within 20 minutes. The staff was very attentive, and the restaurant was spacious, so you won't feel cramped or too close to other diners. The bathroom was clean too. I know that matters to a lot of people, lol. Lastly, the food was worth it! Here's the most up-to-date menu from March 2025. read more

Manna BBQ - Peoria - Updated menu - Korean Near Me - Peoria, Arizona

Always enjoy coming to a KBBQ that is AYCE! We arrived for a late lunch and early dinner and were seated right away. It was the perfect time to visit because there were practically no customers. Our server heated up our grill and began taking our orders, as we are no strangers to Korean BBQ. We started off with their Green Salad, Tofu Stew, Beef Brisket, Beef Bulgogi, and Beef Galbi. All orders come with banchan, and they are always paired well with white rice. I love their Green Salad - it is a simple salad but that vinaigrette is awesome! The Tofu Stew was also very tasty with a little hint of spice. These usually cost over ten dollars a bowl and you can get unlimited amounts here. We are huge fans of beef, so we primarily ordered those, but they offer so much more on the menu, like shrimp or chicken. Some of the beef were not the best cuts of meat, but it is all-you-can-eat, so no complaints there. Our server was very attentive and constantly refilled our meats and cleaned our grill. There are so many options on the menu and for $28.99 per person, we definitely got our money's worth. I can't wait to come back and venture out to try their other marinated meats! read more

The ambiance here is great. We didn't have to wait too long to be seated but during the entire experience we were very forgotten. We had meats to cook but didn't have any plates to put it on ( or silverware). We also constantly had to ask for the same thing over and over and our server didn't seem to understand us read more

I always have a great time coming here, and I highly recommend asking for Michael- he's the best server! He always ensures we have a fantastic experience. The food is consistently delicious, and I love the variety and quality offered. While the adult pricing is fair and definitely worth it, I think the price for children could be improved. My 8-year-old doesn't eat $13.99 worth of food- just a half bowl of rice and a couple of meats- so a child menu or reduced price would make it more family-friendly. Overall, this place is a great spot for Korean BBQ in the west valley. Great service with Michael, great food, and a wonderful atmosphere. I just hope they reconsider the pricing for younger kids! read more

This was probably one of the best Korean barbecue restaurants I've been to mostly because of the sides they offer and the amazing service we had with our server. We went as soon as they opened to beat the crowd. We had a big group of 6 but were taken good care of by our server, who made sure to check frequently about the meats we wanted and refilled our sides and water. They had one of the best house salad and loved how other sides like steamed egg, japchae and potstickers are part of the menu. Their banchan was also delicious. They had lots of seating and I imagine the restaurant gets really crowded during dinner time and on weekends. Would definitely come back again! read more

Stood at the entrance for 15 mins without a single look or word from the girl at the front. 3 other people that worked there came up front too, not a single word. No signs either instructing you to enter your phone number IN ORDER TO BE SEATED. It just says enter phone number. Guess what?!, if you've never been here before you don't know that's how you get a table here. Interesting concept though, no greeting upon entrance. Didn't seem friendly or like they cared. Won't get to try the food I guess. We left. read more

I had a great time with my kids! We all ate very well and the service was on point. The value is top notch. Just understand that you are getting what you pay for. With all the sides and extras though, totally worth it. We enjoyed a fun night out and I enjoyed grilling at the table! Would def go back. read more
