    The service here is just stellar! We usually go to the Mesa location because it is closer, but this location has much better service! [[HIGHLIGHT]]The tables are much bigger, and the service is faster - but they gave my toddler so much sweet attention![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Great vibes and efficient team![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The meat quality here is great, AND I still love their ban chan quality. I don't think my review last year differs, but that probably means they are consistent!

    Pro-tip: Don't be shy about asking for extra of the side dishes. Don't order the premium steak unless you really like leaner steak or you're with a group bigger than three people. Highlights: Really nice to see a manna on the side of town! The meat quality is really good and I love the variety of not just meats, but appetizers and sides. They are super quick with bringing out the food and overall service. If there's a certain side, you'd like, you can ask for more and they bring like 3X the normal quantity. Lowlights: Skip the fried chicken because it's mostly breading - stick to the wings. The tofu soup was probably the saltiest soup I've ever had. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I kind of like the homey feel of the manna in Mesa better than this one that has a nightclub vibe.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    Definitely recommend Manna for your KBBQ needs. The meat was delicious and not too fatty. I like when KBBQ spots provide sides without you having to ask. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The environment was great, music wasn't too loud.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We'll definitely be back!

    Korean BBQ lovers you MUST-TRY this place. Me and my friend went and try out a new BBQ and we were amazed how busy restaurants is and yea, not so surprising why they are so busy and long wait because the have a variety options with reasonable price for all you can eat with $28.99. I love spicy and we did order all option with marinating with spicy sauce that they offer ok the menu and yes, I didn't disappointed at all. It's just perfect kick and not overly spicy. The restaurant quite small and have limited table to offer for a group more then 4 people. Try to go during weekdays otherwise come before 1 pm during weekend to avoid a long wait I loved it and already craving for more. I will come back again s

    So we didn't know that there was a Chandler location, so we kind of stumbled upon this one. We were so excited that there was a location closer to us, but in the end it didn't compare to the normal location we attend. I feel like some of the meat weren't as marinated as the Mesa location, their jap chae taste weird, and their steamed egg was burnt so it had a very bitter taste to it. Service also wasn't that great as we ended up waiting for a good twenty minutes for our bill, and they weren't even really busy and had more than enough servers out front. It wasnt the normal experience so it just didn't satisfy us. Oh and exhaust was set so low and in place, so we couldn't move it around. Honestly it was so low it was hard for us to flip our meat without hitting the exhaust. We asked a lady if it could lift up and she said no. At the Mesa location it's adjustable.

    My family and I love mannas. They are the best Korean BBQ. They're fast with the orders, change the grills out regularly, and don't have a strict amount you can order at a time like Gen's. We love when we get Anny as our server!! She's the BEST. There's another worker who's not too friendly lol, but still brings everything you order quickly. The food is great- as well as the sides. [[HIGHLIGHT]]They also have good ventilation inside so it's not super smoky.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Overall, this is the best place to go for KBBQ.

    Service went great. The meat quality here isn't at best, I enjoy manna at the west gate location much better. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Ambiance was clean so I appreciated that.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    Awesome quality of meat especially for an AYCE place! It is $28.99 a person. They have cooked and uncooked items. Your clothes will smell like kbbq when you leave, but it's so worth it! My favorite is Nuk Gan Sal! It is beef rib finger meat - meat cut from between the ribs. Chadol, galbi, manna steak, and beef tongue are just gets. For cooked items, I love getting the corn cheese, japchae, vegetable tempura, ramen, and tofu soup! We didn't have to wait as we came at 5pm on a Friday, but it got really busy when we were leaving. Great customer service!

    The meat quality was disappointing, and there was a limited selection of side dishes. The server was an older, cranky lady.

    Wanted some BBQ and decided to give Rudy's a try. I have enjoyed Rudy's previously but it's been a…read morewhile. I arrived about 2:30 on a Tuesday. I had to wait about 5 minutes to order. It's a Texas BBQ counter service restaurant and the employee that took my order was friendly and polite. I ordered two spicy chopped brisket sandwiches. My food was ready a few minutes later. I help myself to the condiment bar where I grabbed some pickles, onion and pickled jalapeños to go for my sandwiches. Americana decor covered the walls providing a relaxing atmosphere. Great place to watch sports with many TVs throughout the restaurant. The chop brisket sandwiches were delicious and juicy. Looking forward to returning for breakfast tacos and trying the turkey. Highly recommended! Pro tip #1: Spicy Chop Brisket sandwiches are 2 for 1 on Tuesdays. Pro tip #2: Breakfast tacos provide a value option for early risers.

    This place advertises that they have smoked prime rib, but they don't make very much so finding it…read morecan be a challenge. Finding prime rib that is medium rare to rare is almost impossible. I called them probably 10 or 12 times in the last few months asking for medium rare prime rib, and one of those times they told me they only had 1/2 of a pound. Finally last night they said they had a pound of it so I told them to save it for me. When I got there they had it wrapped up already and it was on 3/4 of a pound, even though I told them I wanted more like a pound and a half of meat. We also got a rack of both kinds of ribs, and a few sides for a total of just over $200. The people here don't know what a medium rare piece of prime rib should look like. The piece that I got had a very small spot of pink in the center, and was beyond medium even so I was very disappointed. It got even worse when I tasted it. There was almost no flavor at all, and little to no smoke flavor even. It was dry and didn't have any aju with it either. The baby back ribs looked and tasted like they'd been sitting in the warning rack for a day. They lacked any moisture at all, and had a crunchy texture. The other ribs were only slightly better, and not as dry and crunchy. We had some of the green chili stew today, which used to be one of their better items, but not anymore. They don't put much meat in it anymore. They added lots of thin stripes of carrots to give it the texture of shredded meat. I think I tasted 4 or 5 small stips of meat in the pint of soup, and no big chunks at all. My mom's pint had one half inch cube of meat in it, so I wouldn't really call this much of a stew. We haven't tried the peach cobbler yet, because it just doesn't look real appetizing since they serve it in a styrofoam cup. The new potatoes was our other side, and they were nothing special at all. I am giving up on this place for good! There's plenty of better places for BBQ.
