This is as authentic Japanese BBQ as you can get outside of Japan! The cleanliness, extremely appreciative and friendly service takes me back to tokyo, which i miss. All the food is FANTASTIC, possibly the best beef tongue I've ever had. Come now, before word gets out and you have to wait a month!! Seriously.
We got the wagyu tasting course which was discounted for the holiday, and everything was served so beautifully and tasted incredible. The service was extremely friendly, and I can’t wait until I can come back!
Interesting experience. From the outside, Yakiniku Gen looks like a Japanese yakiniku restaurant, but the menu leans heavily Korean—kimchi, cold noodles
We ordered beef tongue ($30 for 4 slices) and a small meat platter (~$90), both decent in flavor. But for the price, it felt hard to justify—especially with such plain interior decor.
Service was okay, but overall the value just wasn’t there.
Not somewhere I’d revisit.
