“Excelente lugar y la comida de primero“

“The food is just incredibly delicious. One of the best barbecue restaurants I've been to. The staff is extremely friendly and helpful. The restaurant is quite clean. If you want to order takeout you can phone it in or come in and order it. They will walk it out to the car for you with curbside pickup. The pricing is reasonable for a barbecue and they have a wide menu. They are barbecue bean side and pineapple slaw are the best.“

“My husband and I stopped in for dinner last night, currently eating my leftovers for lunch and have nearly had to fight two co workers trying to steal my smoked turkey! It’s delicious, serving sizes are great. Flavors are developed and not aggressive. We enjoyed our first trip to Tenders very much.“

“The food was great, but the price was outrageous. I bought 1/2 pound of brisket and 1/2 pound sausage - a total of 1 pound of meat, and 2 sides. The total came to $55.51. That's crazy!!! Unfortunately, I can't afford to go back there again. Too bad, because they're located 1 block from my home and the food is great, but the price is way out of my budget range.“

“This was my very first time dining at Manna Shabu & BBQ (Lewisville location) while visiting for a concert weekend, and I have to say—it was such a wonderful experience! They were even having a special collaboration with a local small business vendor for the Ateez concert and offering a complimentary Lemon Drop mocktail for each diner, which was such a fun and thoughtful touch. From the moment I walked in, I felt welcomed. I believe it was the owner or manager who greeted me, and when he learned it was my first visit, he kindly explained the menu, the dining options, and where to find the different food and sauce stations. I was then shown to my table where a very sweet server brought me water and took my order. Throughout my meal, two other staff members as well as the owner/manager checked on me often. The service was beyond excellent—everyone was attentive, helpful, and genuinely kind. Now onto the food—oh my gosh, the portions were incredible! I ordered three different meats and was so pleasantly surprised at the generous serving sizes. At most KBBQ places, one order barely feels like enough for a single person, but here, each order was hearty and satisfying. I couldn’t stop raving about it to my boyfriend and mom while on the phone during my meal! The meat was fresh, high-quality, and delicious—even without dipping sauces. The corn cheese also deserves a special shout-out—it was honestly one of the best I’ve ever had. Beyond the main dishes, there were so many great options: hot plates like mandu, sausage, japchae, fried rice, and chicken; a nice selection of banchan; an ice cream station for dessert; and a wide variety of sauces to complement everything. The restaurant itself was very clean, the atmosphere was warm and welcoming, and even the restrooms were spotless. I also loved that the TVs played some of my favorite K-pop groups and the music playlist was absolutely top tier—it really added to the fun vibe. Dining here as a solo traveler, I never once felt uncomfortable or out of place. On the contrary, I felt taken care of and treated like a queen. It was such a comforting and memorable experience, and I am so thankful for the outstanding hospitality and service I received. I highly recommend Manna Shabu & BBQ and can’t wait to come back with my family the next time I’m in town. Thank you for making my first visit such a wonderful one!“

“Me and my family have been to multiple Korean bbqs but this one has truly been outstanding. The food, the service, all so good! Truly sets your expectations high. Our server Kevin was very impressive, he was serving multiple tables at a time but yet was very attentive to every single one of them! He truly is amazing at his job! He is very hardworking and always has a positive energy! I truly look forward coming in every time! They truly serve me and my family amazingly!“

“chasing tail is only bbq I will eat. only, last time I got chopped beef. they were out of sliced. I could not eat it. it was dry and hard. not much taste. from now on, only sliced is all I will buy.“

“Great variety and excellent service“

“Great place. The staff is awesome, best barbecue I have tasted. My FB friends you need to try it.“

“The food was great! We would definitely stop here again!“

“Great hole in the wall Mexican bbq place. I had some Al pastor tacos and brisket sandwich. The tacos had onions and cilantro and I got the green medium hot salsa (which was a good medium spice level). The brisket sandwich was good sized and came with pickles and onions and warmed bbq sauce.“

“The owner is friendly and accommodating. Always greets me with a smile. Remembers me. Fast service. Very generous with the sliced beef.“

“Great people with great food!“

“Excellent food and great service! Thanks“

“picked up 1 lb of chopped brisket, 1/2 lb sliced turkey, 1lb of chopped brisket, 1/2 lb of pulled pork and a sliced bbq sandwich and peach cobbler and asked for bread. 3 total slices, what do you do with 3 slices of bread with 2lbs of meat? I guess it is BBQ economics. was a weekly visitor but this turned me off. use to get bread and we would have extra.“

“I got the lunch special of 1 meat and 1 side as well as the lemon cake dessert. The brisket was very good in my opinion, perfect balance of fat and lean meat; loved the sauce that was on the side, it was very peppery but balanced with a slight sweetness. Comes with a side of toast and pickles and pickles onions that were also very delicious and good balance. The Mac and cheese was a semi disappointment due to it being spiral noodles but the cheese sauce and breadcrumbs really bring it back to being tasty. Lastly, the dessert, smoked lemon cake. It was hard to judge it, they forgot the berries so it was good but not quite up to par, the cake portion did not taste smoky, was very dense but still moist. Comes with this lemon drizzle/curd sauce that was very good. Worth a visit for the atmosphere and food, but if you're looking for solid BBQ I would give this place a pass and maybe go to hard 8, Hutchinsons or even maybe Loro if you're looking for something more modern.“

“Me and my friends always come here for late night dinner and always get taken care by Nick, he is very attentive and the food quality is worth more than the price they set it up for. We’ve tried different places of KBBQ but the is by far our favorite one especially the pork jowl!“

“When my garage door cable snapped, I contacted this company, and they provided a cost-effective repair. Their technician replaced the cable promptly, ensuring proper operation at an affordable price. I commend their skillful workmanship and reasonable pricing.“

“Catering was provided for our firm and everything was amazing, from service to the delicious, fresh food! We had the spuds buffet and it was a perfect option for 80+ employees. thank you!“

“Exceptional service by **KENYA**. Two old birds having a LONG lunch and Kenya was effervescent from arrival to departure (we stayed 4 hours!). Bbq was really good. And the beans are exceptional! Someone knows how to cook in that kitchen. We both loved the service we got from Kenya! The overall cleanliness was a plus as well. When you go we hope you get Kenya!“

“Blu’s provided two briskets for a family memorial event. The brisket was excellent. They were competitive in price and very easy to coordinate pick up with. I can’t wait to try their ribs next time!!“

“This lace is absolutely awesome!“

“The customer service is amazing. I want to say THANK YOU to them for their hospitality on Easter Sunday. The manager was beyond gracious, and it was greatly appreciated. Luckily we live within walking distance and we can take advantage of eating here whenever we like :)“

“Love the ambiance. Reminds me of home. Sweet family restaurant with great down home cooking!!“

“Went here last night for dinner with my wife. Met the new owner, who came and introduced himself. Very friendly and loved that he took time to visit with us, box up the leftovers and gave us a very honorific good bye as we left. We will certainly be back.“

“Fry batter was good.
Hot honey chicken sandwich was really good. The breading was nice and light. The hot honest sauce was not too sweet or too spicy. Really good pickles as well.

Staff and owner were very friendly.“

“I came to Gopchang Story on Sunday evening for dinner, and Peter was our server. He was incredibly friendly, attentive, and had a great sense of humor that made the whole experience enjoyable. He made us feel very comfortable throughout the meal and provided excellent service. The food was great, but Peter’s outstanding hospitality really made the visit memorable. I would definitely love to be served by him again the next time I come back. Highly recommend!“

“Love this place so much! We have been coming here and ordering takeout from here for a while! Always good food and amazing service!
Loooove the kimchi here! My husband loves the short rib soup! And I love the kalbi (sooo tender!) and the bulgogi (the whole pieces of garlic is such a good touch!).
My mother in law loves this place so much, that every time she is in town, we have to get this place!
They even gave my baby girl a rubber ducky to play with haha!“
