Q: Why are Koreans so good at making fried chicken? A:…read moreBecause it's Seoul food. Bad-dum-tss! On soft opening weekend, I was lucky #8 and I had ordered a $10 lunch box with fries and chicken thighs (with Korean sweet & spicy sauce and topped with almonds). It was tasty! Despite the commute home, the chicken stayed crunchy and the flavor is moreish. They have so many interesting flavors here and I wanna try them all! They're inside the 99 Ranch Market food court so do some shopping, buy yourself a tasty drink, and get some K-Monster!

We ordered a lunch box with fries and chicken thighs, the Korean sweet & spicy sauce, and topped with almonds. The nicest lady was working and she had quite the humor when she remarked that the credit card machine was loud. It was nice to share a laugh. As for the actual KoFC, it was good! We ended up taking it home so the fact that the crunchiness of the chicken holding up was no easy feat. The flavors were good and it left me wanting more. I wish much success for K-Monster Chicken!

I used to frequent bb.q Chicken back when I lived in Washington state and was pregnant with my first child. Now that we've escaped the rainiest area of the world, I'm glad the desert has opened up one of my fave chicken spots ever! I'm a huge fan of their Honey Garlic and Cheesling flavors. Also love their kimchi fried rice. I've Doordashed from this location and also ordered in person. Orders take some time since they fry the chicken fresh apparently. Convenient location on the busy plaza of 99 Ranch Market. Plenty of parking here.

The service was wonderful. The staff brought our food to the table and checked on us during the meal. Overall the service was a 10 out of 10 and the environment made it a really pleasant place to sit and eat. The fries were excellent. They were crispy, hot, and very well done. One order would honestly have been enough for both of us because the portions are generous. We each ordered fries and ended up taking both boxes home, so just know they are definitely shareable. The wings came out piping hot with a really nice crunch. The texture was great and the chicken itself was juicy and not dry at all. The only thing that was a little underwhelming for me was the flavor. We ordered the Spicy Original wings but they did not have much noticeable spice and they did not come with any sauces. I am definitely a condiment person, so having some kind of dipping sauce available would take these wings to the next level. Even just one or two options on the side would make a big difference. That might be on me for not asking more questions about sauces when ordering. Overall the value was great, the environment was great, the chicken was great, and the fries were great. A little extra sauce would have taken it over the top. I actually wandered in while I was heading over to Los Favoritos and ended up glad we stopped. I would absolutely go back and next time I will probably try one of the flavored wing options.

From the second we sat down at Gen Korean BBQ House on Chandler Blvd, Brenden completely elevated…read morethe experience. Korean BBQ is all about timing, attentiveness, and energy -- and he mastered all three. He was incredibly attentive without hovering. Our table was never cluttered, drinks were always refilled before we even had to think about it, and the meat rotations were perfectly timed. At a place like Gen where the pace can make or break the experience, he kept everything flowing smoothly. What impressed us most was his professionalism and attitude. He was knowledgeable about the menu, quick with recommendations, and confident in explaining different cuts and options. He made sure we understood how everything worked and checked in consistently to ensure we had exactly what we needed. But beyond just doing his job, he had that rare quality of genuine service. Friendly, respectful, efficient, and personable. You can tell he takes pride in representing the restaurant. He made us feel like valued guests, not just another table in a busy dining room. The food was great, the atmosphere was lively and fun, but Brenden is what made this visit memorable. If management is reading this -- he is top-tier. Hold onto him. We will absolutely be back, and we'll be asking for Brenden again.

I hung up and tried to call back, however the line was busy for several minutes. When I arrived in person to order, the waiter quickly took my order and informed me it would be 15-20 minutes. The dinner bento box is listed as $19.99 on their website, however, the price has gone up to $24.99. We ordered a beef bulgogi dinner bento box and a chicken katsu dinner bento box. It is a good amount of food (rice, protein, kimchi, 2 pieces of Korean Fried Chicken, 2 dumplings, potatoes, shrimp tempura, and seaweed) but I would recommend getting it for lunch instead at a cheaper price (don't remember how much exactly). Despite this, it was all very mediocre... The chicken katsu and KFC were incredibly dry, and the KFC was a lot of batter. No side of katsu sauce that it desperately needed. The beef bulgogi was definitely better. 2 stars for the chicken katsu, 3 stars for the bulgogi.

The beef soup was very good - tofu was ultra soft and silky. I loved the spice level and they bonchon was also definitely worth trying. I would recommend getting extra salad dressing on the side and getting the lettuce plate (which is an extra $3.5) for the meat unless you want to eat it with the pre-tossed salad. Huge fan of the ginseng spirit. Not their typical 40-53% though, so be sure to know the difference. They also served me a different one than what I had in the flight which tasted and looked different (it was murkier vs clear when ordered in the full bottle) and the bottle is def 13%. Service is on pointe - never needed to ask for anything other than another box and if you're trying to hear someone on a first date I wouldn't recommend coming here, but the general ambiance is fun and worth a try with good friends and family. Definitely will try again for other menu items.

The portion was huge, and the pork was tender and tasty. The spicy beef soup had a bit of a kick, and the hangover ramen was also good. The broth was rich, and there were a lot of ingredients in it.

They offer a sort of cook-it-yourself experience where you order up to two kinds of broths, and they bring them to you in a large pot that goes over your tabletop grill. You receive meats from your server, and have access to a self-serve bar of vegetables, noodles, seafood, and spices. Because it is so customizable you can really experiment with flavors and come up with some delightful combinations. I was a big fan of the brisket and octopus in the spicy broth, and my fiancée enjoyed the pork belly in the sweet broth. Both pots also complemented each other quite well! My favorite part of the ambiance was the privacy curtains. Because tables are all next to each other I imagine it would be easy to see what other diners are doing, but the curtains add a sense of privacy that made us feel like we were almost dining alone. Our service was also excellent. We had several people working in the restaurant come by during the meal to make sure we had all the broth, water, and meats that we wanted. Definitely try Jin Shabu! It is delicious and well worth the money spent!

They have so many options, even for pescatarians and vegetarians. My husband and I were so excited, we went a little crazy. They recommend choosing 1-1.5 pound worth of ingredients and we both went over. The final step is choosing your flavor and spice levels. We both opted for #1, the malatang. For my spice level, I chose medium and my husband chose extra hot. They warned him it would be very spicy, but he likes it that way.
