I love this place! Annie was the best! I haven't found a place I've liked for Korean BBQ here in Arizona but was recommended to go to Manna BBQ. It reminded me of when I lived in Korea, everyone was so nice, the service was very fast (despite it being busy) and the food was soooo dang good! read more

I come here almost weekly now. Great food and options. Service can sometimes be slow but they usually come around right before you need to order again. read more

10/10 recommend this place. Take it from a Korean from Southern California (the epicenter of kbbqs), this place has got to be one of my favorite kbbq places! The service was amazing, the servers were very very kind and the service was quick as well! Meat was top quality-- way better than Gen BBQ's meat. Very tender and flavorful, I definitely recommend dipping it in the salt and sauce they give you. I recommend the corn cheese, doenjangjiggae, and kimchijiggae for appetizers/entrees besides the meat itself. And this place is so clean and overall amazing. I don't usually give 5 stars but this place deserves it. read more

Manna BBQ - Mesa - Korean Near Me - Mesa, Arizona

My kids were craving Korean bbq and we were in Mesa so we decided to go to Manna BBQ. I had been to the Manna BBQ in Glendale so I figured this one would have the same great service. We about 30 minutes to be sat which was not bad at all considering we were a party of 7. Service was not what we expected. The waitress was not friendly and seemed overworked. We were not greeted and felt rushed when ordering. We had to ask for hot sauce and other things that are usually brought out at the beginning . My husband was still eating when the waitress came and asked him if he was finished using the bottle of hot sauce , when he said no she very rudely picked up the bottle and poured a massive amount of hot sauce on his plate without asking if that was ok. How rude! Our overall experience was not good and we will not be back to this location. read more

I came here, with my gf (party of 2) 15 mins before a party of 4 came in, they sat them before us. Because we didn't have enough people for the medium size table. Ended up waiting another 30 mins to be seated when no one else was even In the lobby, she came to us and said once they clean the table we will sit you. Well 30 mins past she walks over and ask the new group that just walked in how many people and was getting. Ready to sit them down. I had to speak up, she said why didn't you go sit down, I told her you said wait till the tables clean to be seated... so she ends up sitting us down after 30/40 min wait. Next issue. Took forever for server to com and even get drinks, ordered my meat. Once I was half way though my protein, I wanted to order more she said I had to wait till I ate all the food to order. I thought this was a all you can eat. Didn't think I was limited on the meat I could get cause there's still some on the grill. The servers are super unprofessional, and seems like they hated working here. I'm super disappointed cause I love the manna kbbq on 83rd n bell. This location is highly disappointing and irritating as a customer read more

I've tried their Glendale location and felt this one was just as similar. Great meat marination and friendly service. Had lots of fun showing my friends how to experience their first kbbq. Only thing I noticed was some of their raw larger meats could be cut in smaller pieces such as the spicy chicken. The other location cut it into appropriate proportion but otherwise great experience. read more

Very overrated. MSG apocalypse. Pessimistically full empty cup of water I like Gen's better first of all. Despite people complimented how savory the food is, there are only 2 dips: soy sauce, salt and pepper. At Gen's there are more dipping sauces. The food is alright. They were filled with MSG. I was so thirsty. The soybean paste soup contains high level of salt. I couldn't finish 5 spoons of it. I felt left out by the waiter. No one ever refilled my water after several times walking past two empty cups (one was my father's). We literally had the cups placed at the end of the table so their hawk's eyes could see. Nope. I didn't know if my table was assigned a specific server or not because the lady who first took my order came back only 3 times. A young lady also came by to take an order. A young lad cleaned up the plates. This very same young lad filled up the water of the table across from us one table down and could not bring his eyes to see that our table also had two cups of empty water. After walking past as 3 times without doing anything, I had to bring up myself to tell him to refill the water. A customer shouldn't have to ask. That was supposed to be automatic. Well, maybe if the restaurant didn't put that many msg in, we wouldn't gulp down our water and waited for over 15 minutes afterward without anyone filling them up. Although, I have to give one star more because they give a lot of food per plate. This may be bad for some people because they want to try more dishes than sticking up with the same old love. read more

This place has the most tastiest meats! I was so hungry and occupied with the fun grilling of meats that I forgot to take a picture. It came with your typical Korean side dishes in the beginning. The meats you order 4 at a time. We started with bulgogi, terryaki pork, beef brisket and pork belly. All very amazing. Got full pretty quickly. I ordered japchae and the soon dubu soup, also very good. The wait was a bit long but not excessive. It was also Valentine's Day so I understand the business. All in all, I recommend. read more

Meat lover's dream. Friendly and fast service once you get seated. Pork belly is my personal fav. No one is leaving Hungry. The steamed egg, corn cheese, and fried chicken are all really delicious as well. Get there early to avoid a long wait. read more

We went on a Weekday evening, steady customer stream but no crazy long wait. 2 ladies were the only waitresses we saw but, my, were they ever on top of things!! Very attentive service, quick to deliver the orders / meat for the AYCE Korean BBQ. The meat had generous portions, we liked some items better than others: brisket, bulgogi, short ribs were great but some more "adventurous" meat choices were bland. The grate was changed out twice so that nothing burned, the "fixings" were great. Overall this pace is good but obviously not like Korean BBQs in LA.... read more

People keep talking about G*N BBQ being the best Korean BBQ place in the Tempe / Mesa area but I've now been to both G*N and Manna multiple times and there is absolutely no comparison in terms of the quality of the meat and sides. Service was phenomenal as well and we loved talking to Anny. Manna is amazing and this is coming from an LA based Korean BBQ connoisseur. We go ALL the time. Highly recommend / A++++ read more

Second time visiting this restaurant last night around 7pm and I took my family with me to try it out. Our server was great and really attentive. He brought out multiple servings of glass noodles, gyoza, and assorted veggies whenever we ran out. We ordered servings of the bulgogi, spicy pork, and garlic shrimp. Everything was great. We also had Sapporo soju bombers that he recommended. Didn't grab his name but he was on top of it! Changed our hot plate multiple times, and had great conversation. Definitely come here for yummy food and a fun experience with family and friends. read more

The Bessssst one ever I enjoyed the food and its sooo worth the best prices and very great Service read more

Fast service, excellent meat quality and selection, great value. Less Banchan provided than typical for LA, but great nonetheless. They even have chopstick helper tools if someone in your party isn't sure where to start which was a fun alternative to asking for a fork! read more

Good food! It's all you can eat so prepare to eat your $30+/per adult moneys worth. There's always a wait so it's a good sign. Friendly staff too! read more

4.5/5 Found this place per recommendation of my brother's friend who lives out here. There's a reason why this place is rated 4.5/5 on yelp. The staff is mostly Korean (which is a plus when you're going to a KBBQ place. The meat was delicious!! I was actually quite surprised with the fried chicken appetizer. It tasted great and had a lot of meat on it. We ordered brisket, manna steak, pork belly, garlic chicken, tofu bowl, bulgogi, and some more. All of them tasted great with the highlights being the brisket, and manna steak. The brisket cooked fast and tasted great! The manna steak was a big hunk of meat and that was great as well! I'm not a big pork belly person but my brother enjoyed it. The bulgogi was a slight salty but that's because it's marinated in that juice for a while. The lunch price is very decent at $18 per person. The only downside is that they don't have rice paper available. However, the quality of the meat definitely shines. If you're in the area, come here to satisfy your meat cravings. Be warned, you'll probably end up with the meat sweats. But that's part of the fun for these places. read more

This has been our spot for Valentines day/anniversary dinner since my boyfriend and I started dating so it definitely has a spot in my heart. I like to say Manna is a good middle price range for the meats you can get. I dont eat beef but they still have a good selection of grill items that I can eat; the chicken bulgogi is one of my favorites off of Mannas menu. Yes chicken does take longer to cook and it has to be cooked all the way through, but I find it so worth it. Manna also has some of the best banchan (side dishes) is the game I would say, the best in my opinion is the cheese corn! When you hit up this place, order the cheese corn and you wont be disappointed. The prices here vary based on the time you go. If you go during lunch time it can range from $8.99 (if you're a kid) to $17.99 for all you can eat meat! Dinner is $12.99 (kids) to $24.99. Go hungry to eat your money's worth! read more

I've been going to Manna BBQ - Mesa since 2019 and it has always outdone themselves. This place is THE SPOT in AZ if you are trying to get the best bang for buck and eat delicious food in the process. Manna BBQ is an experience you don't want to miss. I hosted family and friends here all the time, and each time we've had a blast. Shout out to Un-sun and her team. They are all amazing and you'd be very lucky to have her as your server. read more

Omg this place! I've been here once before and neither times have I been disappointed. The service was super fast. As soon as we had food on the grill they were taking out next order. For $25 all you can eat my table definitely got its money's worth. My friends had never been to Korean bbq before and they loved it. We all loved it! read more

Go to AYCE (all you can eat) KBBQ! I was so excited when this place opened. Coming from LA, AYCE Kbbq places are everywhere and I'm so happy AZ is finally opening up a lot of these places. The meat quality is pretty good for all you can eat! We usually order the brisket and beef belly. The japchae and soon du bu is a must when we come here as well! However, BEWARE of the wait. One time we came on a Saturday evening and the wait was an hour and a half. I believe they start getting busy around 7pm since we came here on a Friday evening at 6pm and didn't wait for a table. When we were leaving there was a wait and a lot of people in their waiting area. MANNA ALL THE WAY!!! read more

Manna BBQ - Mesa - Korean Near Me - Mesa, Arizona

Good but I've had better KBBQ. We ordered the bulgogi which was delicious. We also had the garlic chicken which I thought was just okay. I liked the cheese corn a lot, and the glass noodles were good. The fried rice was good but I've also had better fried rice. Definitely get the bulgogi, it was very flavorful and good quality meat. The service was friendly but a little slow, we even ended up going to the counter to check out because no one brought us a bill. Also heads up: it's $24.99 for all you can eat. There is no option to pay less or only order a la carte. read more

They updated their appetizer portion of their menu along with another set of menu that is not all you can eat.. I believe it's 11.99 a person but each person can pick two appetizers along with two types of meat.. or you can you just stick with ur lunch ayce price of 17.99 during lunch hours or 24.99 during dinner.. but they have added cheesy corn along with Korean chicken wings and dumplings I believe with other many options they have like steamed egg and etc.. read more

Love this place. Eat here a few times a month with friends. I recommend this over all other KBBQ places in the area. Service will take care of you and whatever you ask for. My favorite dishes are the chadol, corn cheese, pork jowl, and nuk gon sol. Haven't tried anything I haven't liked, though. It's a loud place, but I love it. Very authentic. Never had any issues. read more

Korean BBQ spots are popping up all over the valley and I'm all about sampling the goods to find which ones work. The location is probably the best thing for me as it's conveniently located for dinner or lunch with my coworkers. If you do have to deal with a wait, you can slide over next door to the market to look around and pick up a few things. The selection of food has some variations towards some of the other spots and the menu is broken down into 2 price categories (A1 Premium which is around $29/person & the A2 @ $21/person). I have to admit that I struggle to pronounce a lot of things so I pointed out which numbers I wanted on the menu to make sure. When the food came out, we all were looking trying to figure out what it was as it didn't match our order. My kiddos were hungry and said whatever... When we were ready to order again, the 1st thing requested was Shrimp and that's when I realized someone "assumed" the wrong thing. That's probably where the low star rating comes... service... Granted their were plenty of people that night, but while I was pointing to the menu, our server just assumed we were ordering from the lower priced menu. She was quick to point it out and I was even quicker to give her "AND YOUR POINT IS WHAT" response and look. We like baby octopus, we like shrimp, we like Goutal... hence why I pointed to that list. When the shrimp and the other items we requested came out, we go a double order for the stuff we initially ordered.. Not sure how we were gonna good it all but we figured it out. After that, everything went pretty smooth for the night and then we wrapped up. The place has another room in the rear with 2 TV's and is excellent for groups and celebrations. Each time I've gone I've been in that back area. If you're big on soft drinks you will only get a can as it's not all you can drink beverages... I typically drink water but wanted a sprite or coke on standby over the rocks at some point. read more

Very nice! This was a great restaurant and a lovely establishment that offers a wide selection of premium cuts.

Good service, good food and fun atmosphere. We waited about a hour 1/2 so although we had a nice dinner we would return only if there were shorter wait times. 3 stars for the waiting time, food quality ratio. read more

Yeah, this place pretty much rocks. I hadn't had Korean BBQ in about two decades, but was still extolling it to the wife. When the time came for lunch today, I said to myself, "Hey, howabout Korean?" A bit of a search on Yelp yielded Manna. The cook-it-yourself model looked perfect. It was. You pick from an A or B selection at two slightly different prices per plate, and then it's all-you-can-eat pigout time for two hours. You get a variety of different things to stick on the table grill--beefs, porks, chickens, and seafoods, marinated (or not) in specific sauces. I wasn't too thrilled with the octopus (literally 4-5 inch whole octopi). The texture was not my thing, but that's not Manna's fault. The beef was thin and like paper, but quite tasty. I loved the chicken bulgogi and the pork. I also got glass noodles and some rice. Extra tasty, left with a full stomach. If the pieces are large, you can cut the servings with food scissors. Great, attentive service. If you're looking for Manna from Heaven Korean-style, or maybe even Gangham-style, come here. read more

Manna BBQ - Mesa - More please. - Korean Near Me - Mesa, Arizona

I convinced 3 friends to drive in from Phoenix to try this place that I've heard so much about. Upon entering, we just stood there and waited, even though someone was bussing a table right in front of us and a waitress saw us. After about 5+ minutes, a waitress came to the front only to tell us to write our own names on a running list at the cashier desk/area. Once we were seated, we waited about 5 more minutes for a waitress to greet us by asking what we wanted to drink. We chose to place our orders (5 different meats and 4 different appetizers) for food then...unfortunately, once the food started to arrive, they forgot one of the meat items and one of the appetizers. One waitress is not friendly and the other is clearly forgetful. They were clearly understaffed. The food was ok; however, the Hawaiian chicken was off with a funny texture. Unfortunately, this was not the best experience and the food was only ok to begin with, which has led me to give the rating I did. I was really hope I would like the place since it is so close to my home. read more

If you want an all you can eat Korean BBQ and a affordable price point, Manna delivers.

I am giving 4 stars for the food only! The meats and side dishes are always good. I really like that they have the King Oyster mushrooms with the veggies. Most of the other korean bbq joints in Arizona just serve you regular white mushrooms. I love to get chadol baegi, steamed egg and the soon dobu soup at least. If i had to rate the restaurant on service or comfort, I would give less stars. The staff is not rude, it's just that food items were forgotten every single time that we have gone and we have had to ask for items several times. The booths are really small. I am a petite person and I think the seating is a little tight. There also doesn't seem to be group seating. 4 small people can fit in a booth. read more

Often come here for Korean BBQ. I've been personally thinking that this place has one of good quality meat among all you can eat ones, but this time was a bit disappointing since it seems very chewy (which is not good for meat, either lower quality or old meat). Hope it is just one time thing and gets better next time. read more

I like coming here because their food is good. However, they just need to have a better waiting system and a strong team. Other manna / restaurants have the electronic check in with an iPad. This will have better management on them. Less stress on them instead of using a clip board, losing track on people, and time. I don't know how they treat their employees. Maybe they won't have hard time looking for people if they treat their employees better and being strict to their new comers. read more

i would say my experience here has been a rollercoaster, this is my go to kbq spot but when a few days or so i brought my friends here to eat some kbq and when we had the marinated steak, we were ready to put it on the grill and we found hair on the meat, that's the first that has happened and we let the waiter know we found hair and then they made it seemed like we plant that lol? like i said i've been here couple of times okay so after that i told them if it's possible if we can at least get a refund for that incident and they were like " yeah that's fine" then we had this one waitress, his name is JOSUAH and we really liked this guy because he would play along with our jokes and was a funny guy until we literally said as joke the dna of the hair was him, a white male and he started laughing and messing around with us? then he comes back and gave us our check and was like " i don't appreciate the racist comment " and i was just confused ... cause we weren't even trying to be racist .. and just the way he handled it was not very much ideal, i don't know why he felt that way... but retrain your people (: esp josuah ! i would've went off on him after his lil comment anyways that's my lil rant lol read more
