Gen Korean Bbq House - Oxnard

Me and my g/f stopped by this afternoon for lunch, we were seated without a wait and were quickly greeted by our server and got our drinks ordered, I got water and she ordered strawberry lemonade and was told refills were not free (no problem I'm already paying $25+ per plate) the price of 20$ on Google is absolutely incorrect, conveniently. We ordered the all you can eat meat, we were immediately greeted with dirty utensils (see photos). Told the server and he took care of it, was brought shrimp we never ordered, server took care of it again. After cooking several portions they swapped out our grill with a new dirty grill (see photos), server apologized and took care of it again. To top this all off I'm watching another server fill containers of sauce and putting lids on them, she drops 4 or 5 on the floor, looks around picks them up and starts putting them over containers. It's kinda gross no? On top of dirty utensils and grills it rubbed me the wrong way with this place. So, for $25+ a plate with food I ultimately cook myself, the 2 stars are for me. Clean your restaurant up and stop price gouging customers with sub-standard food. Nobody wants to pay $75+ for anything remotely like that. The broken dishes my utensils were served on is a nice touch too. You get what you pay for right?

This place has 30 options for their Regular option which is more than I?m used to getting. There wasn?t a higher tier option but with the amount of choices I had, I don?t feel like one was necessary. The list includes seafood options of shrimp and octopus which I usually see on other restaurants top tier option. Staff was attentive and friendly. I liked that they had a grill case to carry the hot grill they removed to protect customers when walking about but at the same time some seemed a little lax with how they handled them. Did have an issue splitting check in two

It is THE korean bbq place in oxnard. 30 items on the menu, $26.99 per person. Meat was good and our server was attentive. Only thing I?d mention is when checking in on Yelp, you still have to check in with the front desk staff, wait another 15-30 min, then be seated. Plan ahead when going in a group.

We had the BEST out of our kitchen family meal since 2019 last night! The food was delicious and fresh and our server Kawaii was exceptional! We will definitely be back! I highly recommend you have a Korean BBQ experience at Gen???????

I really enjoyed the all-you-can-eat (AYCE) Korean BBQ at this location. The service can be inconsistent, depending on how busy the restaurant is—weekends tend to be challenging for finding your server, although they consistently bring out food quickly. The food quality is quite good, especially considering that it's a chain; I’d rate it 4.5 stars for AYCE Korean BBQ at around $30. However, some dishes can occasionally be a bit too sweet. Overall, though, you can't beat the quality for the price. **Service: 4 stars** On weekdays, the service is excellent. However, weekends can be tricky, and you might find yourself searching for your server in the bustling atmosphere of the parking lot. In conclusion, it’s a fantastic AYCE Korean BBQ experience. This restaurant is popular and successful for good reason. I appreciate the Yelp waiting list check-in feature, but I recommend avoiding peak times for the best service.
