It was recommended by friend. We were there for happy hours after work. The place is very nice and clean. The atmosphere was great. The service was friendly and helpful. The vibe gave you a good mood to eat there. We ordered a few appetizers. They were okay. We ordered some meats for the BBQ. We have been to so many Korean BBQ restaurants. The All-You-Can-Eat one is usually okay, which you cannot expecting too much. However, this one is a chain which it should be better. Unfortunately, the marinated is under average and the quality of meats should be better. The price is reasonable, but they can do better.

Atmosphere is excellent. Service was good. The price point is very attractive. However, the biggest short coming is the quality of the meat. Cuts are often lower quality and requires a marinate to be decently tender. Gen Korean BBQ pales against the the Korean AYCE stores on the West Coast and New England area. Unfortunately, this seems like a common reoccurring theme of chains opening in South Florida only to provide a subpar experience with inferior ingredients. I would come for the experience but unfortunately not for the food.

I had an enjoyable dining experience here. The carpaccios were all amazing and I’ll definitely be returning to enjoy the sushi menu. As a big fan of Korean BBQ, I found the meats underwhelming, however I’m down to give them a second chance. The Staff were super friendly and attentive.

I love All You Can Eat Korean BBQ. I mean, what’s there not to like, really? Unless you’re a vegetarian or vegan. Then it would be horrible, I guess, but I do believe they have options for Vegans and Vegetarians, so come check it out!

Food was amazing, there are a ton of options on the menu and the cuts of meat were delicious. You girl everything on your own but the staff were great in giving tips and always making sure you had what you needed or switching things out.

Firstly, service: Would like to express a special shout out to Josue our wonderful server last Friday for displaying absolute professionalism, hardworking effort, and the best service anyone could ask for. Very professional and attentive. As soon as we needed something he was there. He made our first visit to Gem’s a total delight.

I didn’t have high expectations. But actually food was great. I will try again. Kalbi was great. Side dishes can be better but it wasn’t bad.

Although new to Forida this is a chain restaurant mainly in TX, CA and Hawaii. We were sat in a quiet corner and our service was great. We ordered wagu, shrimp and chicken. I loved the kimchee and picked cucumbers and small b9wl of rice to go with. Def recommended and hope to visit again soon.

Fresh meats, delicious marinades, great service. We’ve enjoyed going to other Gen BBQ locations before, and are so glad they opened a location here. Would highly recommend getting the spicy pork belly and pork bulgolgi!
