We love Genwa! The service is super friendly and the food is great. Definitely don't miss out on the non bbq items - their Bibimbap and Galbi Tang are top tier

Amazing amazing food! Been here twice . Second outing was disappointing as waitress seemed to ignore out table for too long . Spent more time cleaning than checking on us. Had to flag her down eventually that we were long ready to go

My kids and I wanted to try Genwa on a random Saturday night. We had a great meal. The circle of banchan dishes were delicious and the cuts of beef that we ordered were all very high quality. Our server was top notch. Very attentive, relaxed and friendly when he was at our table and responsive. We enjoyed our dining experience at Genwa and plan to return soon. You get what you pay for which is quality food and excellent service.

I mean. I’ve eaten at my fair share of KBBq spots. Some good. Some great. Some bad. Genwa is still at the top for me. The food is rock solid. Service is by far better than everywhere else. I just love it.

The service and food here are always absolutely fantastic. This is one of my favorite places to eat in Los Angeles.

It was nice, but the ambiance was not the best. And the server kind was took back by me asking about the menu, it wasn't explained very well.

I recently visited Genwa Korean BBQ for my first Korean BBQ experience, and it was fantastic. The food was delicious, and I made a point to try all the accompaniments—they were all great. Even the fish options, including the sardines, surprised me since I don’t usually enjoy fish.

The service was excellent, and Anna made the meal even more enjoyable with her attentive and friendly approach. I went during lunch and was seated right away, which was a nice bonus.

Great food, excellent service, and no wait—highly recommend!

I was visiting my family from WA State and we were celebrating my brother's birthday and he said he wanted Korean BBQ. A quick search for LA options and ¡viola! Although about $150 per person, our family of five loved every course! The service was amazing and the food was so good. Highly recommend!

Everything was very mediocre. I tried this place on Beverly Hills location a few years ago and it was great. Not sure if this location was issue or quality went down. It is not up to LA Korean food standards by any means. Side dishes were ok, meat wasn’t great, and service was very slow. We ordered combo 1.

Side dishes are amazingly great. The BBQ beef and pork are delectable. The server is attentive and very kind. She saw my boy sulking and gave him a packet of seaweed to cheer him up.

Great food and service. They were very accommodating to get us served quickly as we had to get to crypto arena.

Reserved a table for 8pm. Came at 7:55, stood for 10 minutes not far from the bar so the staff could see us but they just kept ignoring us. Great service from the very start 👍🏻
