The Korean bbq itself makes for a great time together with any family or group. But GEN brings it one step above the others with their service, atmosphere, and of course food! Whether it's family, or co workers, it fits the bill for food, fun, and togetherness.

I took the family here for Thanksgiving dinner instead of the usual turkey. We all agreed that this was the right choice since there was no preparation, cooking or clean up. We also made sure not too dress too nicely since we knew we would be smelling like BBQ after all the table cooking we would have to do.We arrived before five thinking that Gen would be crowded like it normally is but we were surprised that the place was not even half full. We still had to wait for almost 20 minutes since there was not enough servers. The queue behind us continued to grow but it was not until once the next shift showed up for work then the queue started to get seated. However once we got seated we quickly made our choices but still had to wait for our waiter as he was still servicing his other tables. The policy of ordering the meats is only four meat dishes ordered at each round and you cannot order more than one of the same dish. For the non meat dishes you can order at the same time as the meat without limits.Together we finished off 17 orders of meats and seafood. Most of the pork and beef orders came out in roughly 2 strips each, calamari was one rectangle, shrimp was only five each time and the bulgolgi came in a bowl. Overall the best dishes were the Cajun shrimp, Hawaiian steak, Kalbi and the all pork belly varieties. We were bummed that they ran out of tongue. Overall the meats were easy to cook and the controls for the gas grill easy to modify at the end of the table.The veggie plate was a joke with cuts of bell peppers, onions, zucchini and slices of corn on the cob. The japchae noodles were disappointing with the portion size and lack of meat. The tastiest non meat dish was the fried dukboki with a sweet and sour sauce. If you are still hungry after eating all this meat then you can buy macaroon ice cream sandwiches separately for your dessert (3.49 each I think).Service was efficient and each time the meat dishes were delivered the waiter took our next round of meat orders. The pace was slow initially but picked up once we got into the routine of cooking and eating.Definitely worth a return visit.
3. Broth Shabu-Shabu

First I would like to say, I added this restaurant. I came here with a friend of mine and finding this place online. I love hot pot and this place was great. We ordered the spicy miso and the pork bone broth, sorry I forgot the name of this one, but it was really good. I am not really into different things and when my friend said he wanted that, I was not so excited, but I tried the broth and it's really good. You can only pick two broths.The veggies and seafood are available for you to serve yourself. There is also a condiment section to make your own dipping sauce, which is great. The price is like $25 or $26 per person and it's all you can eat. My friend ate 18 plates of beef plus seafood and veggies, I was soooo full, but it was sooo good :). The employees are really great. The two female hosts were very nice and friendly, also our waiter Pablo was really cool and made sure we had enough food.I highly suggest this place if your in the mood for hot pot.

Isn't it obvious tofu is made from soybeans, so why the redundancy? Who cares...it's all about the food. This restaurant is conveniently located, has a pleasant atmosphere, and serves delicious soon tofu! You control the heat level....from white to very spicy, it's up to you. Whether stopping by on a cold evening or hot summer night, you'll be greeted with a warm welcome and friendly service! A treasure in the heart of La Palma.
5. Red Palace Korean BBQ
Reviewed By jeriif
Although I could have used a "Korean BBQ 101' cheat-sheet, we all really enjoyed this place, the food, and the nice people! We did not need to order any more than 3 meats which were all great and then all the salads just kept coming and were very tasty, even if I did not know what a couple of them were until I asked. ;)
