    Always satisfied when eating here! Got seated right away, and although there were only 2 servers during lunchtime, they both did such a good job of being attentive!

    ​I have been to Mana Korean BBQ in Westgate hundreds of times and love the food and the lively, upbeat atmosphere here. Tonight the food was great as usual, but the service we received was incredibly disappointing. ​Our server, Jinsoo, made us feel completely invisible. Despite the busy, energetic environment around us, he failed to check on our table even once, forcing us to wave him down or yell across the room for basic requests. To make matters worse, he repeatedly cut us short during ordering, forgot multiple items, and never offered refills--actively avoiding eye contact the whole night. Management seriously needs to address this. When the food and vibe are this good, a server shouldn't be ruining the entire experience for a loyal regular.

    A favorite of the (older) kids. Wait system is effective. Servers are very knowledgeable and efficient with the tabletop grill. They change out the sizzle plate as needed. Great veggie and side dish options. Meat options are also great with marinaded and prepared dishes. I do like that it doesn't feel like you are dining too close to others and that you are tucked away in your own secluded and spacious booth that could comfortably seat 4-6 adults. Great conversational dining experience.

    This was my first time ever experiencing Korean BBQ. So what a fun idea for my daughter's birthday celebration dinner. It was a little confusing at first because of the lack of explanation we received from our waitress, however we caught on pretty easily. Appetizers, meat choices and sides were all delicious! Our party of 7 did not leave hungry! The portions of meat are small but very filling and it's all you can eat and we did! My only complaint was the size of the tables. I would prefer to have sat at a high top where there seemed to be more room and more stoves to accommodate bigger parties.

    We love it here! We come a lot, we usually have the same server. But the last 2 times have been different ones. Both are really nice and we even had busser make us a specific sauce and bring us shots! It was nice. This is our FAVE Spot in town! We literally come once a month. Tonight Duh was our server and he was on it! Speedy and kept checking on us. We appreciated his service

    This was my first experience at Manna! I had a friend recommend this place and so I went with a friend and my 2 kids. The waiter explained how it worked we ordered our drinks and meat. It was definitely an experience to cook the meat at the table but fun! Overall I enjoyed the food but not really my jam, I come ready to eat lol! It was cute and cozy and was busy since the location is at Westgate. This is a place worth trying if you like Korean BBQ!

    AYCE. But quality of food is just ok. Service: 1) you can only order 2 per items at a time. The server took the order and the food actually arrived. 2) then the server disappeared. 3) the server finally came back after 10 minutes, took your orders then poof, MIA again, but this time, the food never came because the server totally forgot about your order, wait, order, wait and repeat. It was quite frustrated because we had to catch a movie afterwards. Food: Banchan - only 3 things but tasty Japchae - it's ok. Great and no veggies. Soon Dubu (tofu stew) - good flavor but not much tofu. More like a soup Corn cheese - not that great. Looks like they just pour some milk or cream on the corn, then top with cheese. Meat - Galbi, bulgogi, etc all good Make sure to plan accordingly, time wise.

    This was my first time coming here and I would definitely come back. It is $30/per person + ~$3/soda making it around $70 for two people to dine (not including tip). We dined for about an hour and a half before we were full and ordered... * 6 different types of meat * dumplings * fried chicken * 2 bowls of fried rice * transparent noodles * 2 sodas Everything was super tasty and portioned well. Was disappointed they didn't offer taiyaki in their dessert menu.

    Corn cheese noodles green salad gyoza etc

    We love Mana! We come here as a family of 4. We always are able to order as many meats at a time as we want. We are always brought cucumbers, sprouts, ginger, kimchi, and some fish item every time we are sat. This is from a very busy Saturday night and we got the same amazing service as always!! We have always had different servers but the same great service each time. They always have the tvs on games. The lighting and noise level is perfect If you haven't come by and are considering, this is your sign to come and try it out! You won't be disappointed!

    Last minute decision for k bbq, and they had about a 30 minute wait which was expected with k bbq! Lively atmosphere walking in and friendly staff. Our server was super nice and accommodating, but the food was pretty average, the potatoes weren't the best which is usually a weirdly favorite part of my kbbq experience. Lol The one thing that really made my partner and I almost get sick, was the bathroom smell. After going there it made us almost loose the appetite. So if you are sensitive to smells, go to another bathroom! I was going to give this a 4 star because the food was pretty good but but the bathroom situation really impacted the experience.

    A friend and I ate here for the first time on Friday night. I do enjoy a good Korean BBQ but have only been to a few different establishments. This was by far my favorite. The prices, selections, staff, and restaurant itself were excellent. We both got the "All you can eat" for $30. I started with the Menna "Signature" steak, spicy pork belly and beef tongue. All were delicious. My friend ordered mostly garlic shrimp with beef, pork, and chicken bulgogi. Lady loved all three of her bulgogi proteins its safe to say. She said her shrimp was great as well. She also had a bowl of Soon Dubu she enjoyed. Pork dumpling appetizers were cooked perfectly. On my second order I tried garlic pork belly, teriyaki chadol, and more beef tongue. The beef tongue was my favorite. Thinly sliced and oh so tender! My third and final order consisted of MORE beef tongue, beef bulgogi, and pork bulgogi. I can't think of one thing we didn't love. Oh, their kimchi was second to none. There were some veggies in there too, we're not ALL heathen. FRESH mushrooms, onions, garlic, and zucchini accompanied our meal. Last but not least was our server Sunny (Sonny?). She was very patient and friendly. She did a great job at recommending new items (to us). My iced tea was never empty and she was very attentive. We'll definitely be return soon!!

    What is the price to eat again?

    I believe it's in the low 30s all you can eat. Not sure about pricing for children. Just check out their website for more information.

    Do you charge for uneaten food? If so how much?

    They do charge for uneaten meat. I believe it's a small percentage. They let you pick 3 meats at a time so you can pace yourself. Best to go in a group of like 3-4 to make sure when getting the meat it's all eaten and you don't have to worry about… Read more

Comfortable, sorta on the dark side. Classy. As I was not driving today, I decided to try their smoked Old Fashioned. Excellent -- and the dark cherries they use are the perfect addition to the cocktail. (The glass is coated with smoke from a smoldering piece of pecan wood, and the cocktail was served with a cloud of smoke under a coaster covering the glass.) The pig sickles ( ribs) were the perfect chance to make a pig of myself. Had the two meat plate, pig sickles and barbecued pulled chicken, If you like corn, you must have the side of corn with your dinner. The barbecue beans were delicious. Our server did a magnificent job tending to our drinks, appetizer, and food orders -- despite being very busy (the place was packed! -- and seemed like she was in constant motion. Very nice individual who liked la Prices? It was expensive, but the best barbecue always is. Eating isn't cheap. It was well worth every dollar spent. All in all, it was a perfect dinner. The perfect parting gift: a small paper bag containing four small donuts, coated with cinnamon. Our bag didn't make it home... I think we've found the perfect place to bring our family and out-of-town guests for dinner.

Coleslaw even though the menu specified cilantro and jalapeño I only tasted raw Cabbage . Ribs weren't tender. I know they should have bite but mine was tough with a artificial smoke taste. Brisket was shredded not sliced. Service. Bartender was nice and personable but I sat for 10 minutes with a empty and she never asked if I wanted another even though the place wasn't busy. Bar itself is a sh!t hole no points taken off because they are remodeling. Overall the meal as a whole was meh! Decently priced but...I'm not sure if it was worth the trip.

Pretty much every type of meat that they had was a hit. Some of the meat was a bit salty, but it wasn't salty enough to affect my culinary experience. Overall I thought it was very delicious. Naturally, the sliced brisket was very juicy and tasty, and the chopped brisket provided good textural consistency along with the flavor. I also thought that the turkey breast was a good item to neutralize the strong taste that came from some of the meat, such as the pork belly burnt ends, which were both sweet and salty. The sausage pieces were also great in providing a layer of flavor distinct from the other kinds of meat. The pork spare ribs were generous in size, although I thought the sauce could be a bit less sweet. Overall, very solid barbeque meat and I would definitely recommend this spot to anyone that visits the Phoenix area.

It was all over my clothes and arm and all through my hair. His burger was covered in an avalanche of ketchup. This is clearly not normal for a bottle of Ketchup. The server seemed baffled and was going to leave my husband with his meal that was drenched in Ketchup even after he asked her what would have caused the bottle to explode like that. I finally asked him if he was comfortable eating the food and she then offered to have it remade. Now the food: Burger (after being remade) was average. Chicken tenders were average. Mac and cheese and baked beans were not good. The positives: Loaded potato peels were delicious. Would definitely recommend those. Server kept my husband's soda refilled. The lady doing the bingo games was awesome. She played good music and had a good vibe with everyone in the room. I think (hope?) they were severely understaffed, hence the extreme wait times for service and food. All in all it took 2 full hours from when we got there to the time we were able to get our bill paid and leave. I cannot imagine wanting to return here unfortunately. The other patrons seemed to be having a good time with the bingo host as well. It seems this place does attract regulars but most seemed to just be drinking beer and eating onion rings. Maybe that's the way to go!
