Gen Korean BBQ House

Gen Korean BBQ in Fullerton is a MUST-VISIT spot! 🤩 We had an AMAZING experience and can't wait to come back! The food was top-notch (loved the spicy pork belly!), but it was the service that really STEAL THE SHOW! Johnny, one of the managers, was INCREIBLE - super friendly, knowledgeable, and made us feel like part of the family! He shared some awesome stories about Gen and was happy to chat with us. We tried their new drinks and WOW - the Lychee Oolong tea was a GAME CHANGER and the Strawberry Milk was TO DIE FOR 🍵. Huge shoutout to Johnny for making our dinner so special! 5 stars isn't enough - I'd give it 10 stars if I could. Can't wait to be back!

Came on New Year’s Day 2026 and we waited 30 min to be seated. Apparently several servers called off so we initially were being served by the manager. He took our drink orders and after bringing our drinks we didn’t see him again. After waiting for 15 min we were then handed off to Zay, our server. Under the circumstances he was very good. I have no complaints for Zay. I just wish the communication between the manager and him was better. As far as food, it was average at best. I do not like how dark it is in the restaurant. Also the vent system could be better. Too much smoke inside. The floors definitely were slippery due to the floating grease in the air. We came cause we had a gift card. I doubt we’ll be coming back.

Had a delicious Korean buffet BBQ here yesterday evening around 6pm. It was quite busy, and we waited about 15 minutes for a table for four. The meat was really top quality, and if you're a meat lover, I definitely recommend this place!

We came on a weekday right after it opened. The menu can be viewed on the phone but you have to order thru the waiter. It wasn't that busy but the waiter didn't replace our grill on time so our food was always burnt. The quality of meat was just so so and the waiter lost track of our orders ended up bringing a lot of food in the end. I would suggest to let people order it thru the phone so that it is convenient to track what they have ordered.

Come here as a single or couple is fine, as a big group is worse. 4 meat dishes per order, each dish is 1 piece of meat. Party of five needs to wait for the second round of order. Each portion is so small and the wait is long to get to the next round and they asked for the time when we sit down since there is 2 hours limit. Basically, All you can eat against the two hours marks and the turn around order. Never come here again Adding, the grill power is only good for 2 to 3 person party. Here is the photo of 10 or more minutes waiting between order round. Updated, after another 15 minutes waiting, nothing happened. Just ordered a Rice paper and cucumber pickle. And continued to wait.
