    All-you-can-eat hot pot & bbq- it was all more than enough! We were a large group, and this worked perfectly for all the different preferences. We did have to agree on grill items, but no big deal - theres enough beef, pork, chicken & seafood choices for everyone.  Hot pot veggie ingredients are from a self-serve bar, they bring out the meat per your order. I really liked all the seafood choices, including spicy shrimp & small octopus. It's a good choice for a hungry, large group.

    For all you can eat hot pot and/or Korean barbecue, Manna's menu and price per person is great! You can opt to do one or both, and guests gave access to the self-service vegetable and seafood bar as well as sauce station. You can make your own concoctions of all types of sauces and dips. I don't believe there is a time limit for your party so it's nice to enjoy their food with friends and family. The staff is attentive and makes sure you have all the meats you desire for your soup and/or grilling. For dessert, they have a self-serve ice cream bar. They usually have chocolate, strawberry, chocolate, and matcha green tea flavors.

    I've been to manna before but only the carrolton location so I was a bit curious on how the Plano location compared. First thing I noticed was that they didn't have any sides on the menu, such as steamed egg that the carrolton location has. As for the meat, it was alright but one thing that did disappoint was the galbi since I could barely taste the marinade, and it seemed to not have been marinated for very long. However, the service made up for it, because all of the servers were very friendly and since we went pretty late, it wasn't busy at all so they came by every once in a while and cooked the meat for us which was nice of them. The experience was good, but I do prefer the carrolton location more.

    A new experience, friendly staff, open area and spacious environment. More detailed explanations of food choices and the general setup and process would be helpful. Some of the hot pots at our station did not work, which caused our party to have to shift around. We made the best of it but had to sort of talk around some empty seats. The location is convenient overall, and Immediately next door to a market that seems very popular. Overall I would say the price point is high for the value and experience.

    Service was great! Very fast and attentive. The vibes are great and the restaurant looks very nice. We went for the BBQ and it was inexpensive and delicious. Often times at kbbq places, the meats are hit or miss but 90% of the meats we got were very tasty. There's also an extremely large meat selection in comparison to kbbq places around the same price. They also have a build your own sauce bar where you can get sesame oil, salt, chili oil etc. Definitely recommend for a night out w your s/o or friends.

    We randomly picked a place to munch on. It wasn't the best choice. Service was totally lacking & it wasn't even busy. The broth was very diluted. However they did offer quite a decent selection of shabu shabu ingredients. The red wine tasted stale (only had 2 sips). It's located in an Asian plaza with plenty of parking.

    Great food and hospitality, the meat was so fresh and we had an overall amazing experience. Thank you!!

    Pretty good spot for some kbbq and hot pot. All the meats are of good quality and they have a variety of sauces and shabu shabu ingredients. Minus one star for no side items or lettuce

    Unchanged grill. Yuck.

    Very good food with a great selection of hotpot ingredients. We usually only go for hotpot and easily get full without Korean BBQ also.

We got the baby octopus bibimbap with the steamed egg and bulgogi bibimbap with the tofu soup. The banchan was also really fresh and the kimchi really stood out. The portions were huge! I love that the bibimbap comes out on a flat sizzling pan to maximize the crunchy rice you get from it. The baby octopus was delicious and had great flavor. The steamed egg had a spongy texture which and was also really flavorful. The tofu soup was not as thick as some that you might get but it had a really good savory flavor that you can taste in the soup. It was overall a real great experience and a great value if you're going at lunch. Definitely adding to our regular rotation.

Even before the star of the meal appeared, kudos to the smattering of banchan that came out: sprouts, cucumber kimchi, sweet potato, mini meat patties, kimchi, steamed egg, tofu soup, salad greens seasoned, cheese + corn... I hope I didn't miss any! The mushroom bibimbap is flavorful! We've never had this particular bibimbap before and man it goes well with the meat. Beef rib was tender and nice. We wanted it a bit rare :) and it was delish! Dipping sauce was nice but honestly doesn't need it! Oh and the grilled mushroom is good with it. Pork belly was the star of the meal. Had it with 2 week aged grilled kimchi (so special!!) and we got samjang with it, yummm. We were stuffed to the rim and had to take a little box of leftovers home. We were so touched with a little desert rice drink at the end, really rounded out the meal and experience all together. A+ for the service. Amazing job and everything grilled to perfection.

The food is consistently great, and when the staff is properly trained, the service is excellent too. The waitress with the toast necklace was honestly amazing and the highlight of our visit. Her communication was perfect. She asked exactly how we wanted the meat cooked, checked in on the pacing of the courses, and adjusted everything when we asked to slow things down. That level of attentiveness is what makes Korean BBQ enjoyable. At Ari, multiple staff members rotate between tables helping out, which is normally fine. Unfortunately, every time the more mature staff member came to our table, things started getting worse instead of better. After we had already explained that we preferred medium rare and wanted a slower pace, she came over, saw a little pink in the meat, turned the fire back on, and cooked it until it was overdone. She also started putting meat directly onto people's plates without asking first. Everyone at our table had different preferences. Some mainly wanted vegetables, our daughter preferred pieces with more fat on the sides instead of the more pink cuts, and some of us simply weren't ready for more food yet. Since we know everyone's preferences best, it would have made much more sense for us to serve the meat ourselves instead of having it automatically placed onto plates. What made it more awkward was that she kept placing food only into my tray and not anyone else's, which confused my wife and made the experience uncomfortable. She also started cooking additional courses before we had even finished the first two, despite us specifically asking to slow the pace down. The side dishes were also noticeably skimpy this visit compared to normal. Usually the portions are at least halfway filled, but this time some came out barely a quarter full. We kept asking for refills, especially for the daikon, and each refill only came with two or three small pieces. At that point it felt strange having to repeatedly ask for something that normally comes reasonably portioned. One suggestion for management: name tags would really help in a restaurant where the staff is actively cooking and interacting with customers. In a professional service environment, it would make communication much easier and more respectful if customers could address employees by name instead of describing them as "the toast necklace waitress" or "the mature lady." Still love Ari overall and will continue coming back. Hopefully this was just an off night and the communication/training issues get addressed.

But…read moreI'm getting older and sometimes, soup is all I want as a meal lol Believe me when I say that you do not want to sleep on this place. The galbi tang is the best Korean soup that I've ever had. Yes, it's better than soondubu (tofu stew) or budae jjigae (army base stew). Our family makes both of these stews at home but once we discovered the galbi tang here, we order it at least once a month. Ok maybe at least twice a month lol The ajumma here is the sweetest person and I like to tell myself that everything from the soups to the banchan are her homemade recipes. I have no way of confirming if that's even true but even the banchan is delicious. My husband discovered this place when he ordered something here once last winter. I forget what it was but he was given a side of galbi tang in a small, stainless steel bowl and the rest is history. I love this place, I need it to be around forever so please come eat here and enjoy. You're welcome.
