All-you-can-eat hot pot & bbq- it was all more than enough! We were a large group, and this worked perfectly for all the different preferences. We did have to agree on grill items, but no big deal - theres enough beef, pork, chicken & seafood choices for everyone.  Hot pot veggie ingredients are from a self-serve bar, they bring out the meat per your order. I really liked all the seafood choices, including spicy shrimp & small octopus. It's a good choice for a hungry, large group.

For all you can eat hot pot and/or Korean barbecue, Manna's menu and price per person is great! You can opt to do one or both, and guests gave access to the self-service vegetable and seafood bar as well as sauce station. You can make your own concoctions of all types of sauces and dips. I don't believe there is a time limit for your party so it's nice to enjoy their food with friends and family. The staff is attentive and makes sure you have all the meats you desire for your soup and/or grilling. For dessert, they have a self-serve ice cream bar. They usually have chocolate, strawberry, chocolate, and matcha green tea flavors.

I've been to manna before but only the carrolton location so I was a bit curious on how the Plano location compared. First thing I noticed was that they didn't have any sides on the menu, such as steamed egg that the carrolton location has. As for the meat, it was alright but one thing that did disappoint was the galbi since I could barely taste the marinade, and it seemed to not have been marinated for very long. However, the service made up for it, because all of the servers were very friendly and since we went pretty late, it wasn't busy at all so they came by every once in a while and cooked the meat for us which was nice of them. The experience was good, but I do prefer the carrolton location more.

A new experience, friendly staff, open area and spacious environment. More detailed explanations of food choices and the general setup and process would be helpful. Some of the hot pots at our station did not work, which caused our party to have to shift around. We made the best of it but had to sort of talk around some empty seats. The location is convenient overall, and Immediately next door to a market that seems very popular. Overall I would say the price point is high for the value and experience.

Service was great! Very fast and attentive. The vibes are great and the restaurant looks very nice. We went for the BBQ and it was inexpensive and delicious. Often times at kbbq places, the meats are hit or miss but 90% of the meats we got were very tasty. There's also an extremely large meat selection in comparison to kbbq places around the same price. They also have a build your own sauce bar where you can get sesame oil, salt, chili oil etc. Definitely recommend for a night out w your s/o or friends.

We randomly picked a place to munch on. It wasn't the best choice. Service was totally lacking & it wasn't even busy. The broth was very diluted. However they did offer quite a decent selection of shabu shabu ingredients. The red wine tasted stale (only had 2 sips). It's located in an Asian plaza with plenty of parking.

Pretty good spot for some kbbq and hot pot. All the meats are of good quality and they have a variety of sauces and shabu shabu ingredients. Minus one star for no side items or lettuce

Unchanged grill. Yuck.

Not good. Slow, inattentive, unhelpful service. Grills don't get hot so food steams, not grills. Bonchon is old. We had to ask three times for more water. No explanation about rice service. Mostly, food was just bad. No point to get Korean bbq if the food won't grill. Restaurant feels unclean - greasy floors and tables. Music is cheesy pop played too loudly with a bad system. Manna in Carrollton is better, but many options in Plano are better including Ari.

The front door

Great food and hospitality, the meat was so fresh and we had an overall amazing experience. Thank you!!

The food is average. However, they have lots of options for you I like the intestine and beef tongue The only reason I rare 1* is that they very staff shorted. They have only 1 several in the Friday after noon for the whole restaurant. I hit the bell three times, and she still not shows up. It takes too long for the server to come. In short, please don't come here, you will wait for long long time

It is a nice spot to enjoy a meal with friends and family or even on your own. The grilled pork ribs are big, meaty, tender, and juicy. It's glazed in slightly sweet sauce and it has a smoky charred flavor from being grilled. A hearty yummy must try dish when you are here. The bibim naengmyeon or korean spicy cold noodles had a good amount of that spicy sauce mixture (not very spicy if you're worried about that), and it is refreshing with the kimchi and radish. You can even doctor it up with the vinegar and mustard they provide to compliment the dish. The banchan spread includes kimchi, cucumbers, fish cake, salad, and a korean sweet mashed potato. Great bites to pair with the entrees. Overall, the food came out at a reasonable speed, so service is good. Nothing too notable in terms of service and ambiance but the food is good if you want a no frills, simple, hearty korean meal!

We opted for the Beef and Pork Combo B (difference is bone-in prime rib and bigger quantity). The prime rib was fantastic (cooked medium) and pork jowl was juicy. We also tried the brisket but it was on the leaner side so it was a tad bit chewy. We had an array of banchans like kimchi, cucumber salad, steamed egg, tofu soup, corn, daikon, fish cakes, etc. We also tried the Seafood Pancake. Though it wasn't stuffed with seafood, it was perfectly crisp on the outside and fluffy on the inside. Two servers rotated cooking our meats and were so skillful that the meats never burned. They gave us to-go boxes that had aluminum foil lining the bottom so the grease doesn't soak through. That was thoughtful! My only concern was the ventilation system. When we walked in, it was really smokey. I noticed the smoke from our grill not being sucked in by the vent directly over us. Maybe it wasn't on or maybe it wasn't strong enough. Either way, a lot of smoke was filling the restaurant.

Looking to try Korean BBQ for the first time? Ari is a great place to start. The tableside grilling…read morewas a lot of fun! We haven't been back to Ari in years -- so many restaurants in the area keeps us trying new places all the time. We were ready to go back. FYI: weekends is crazy busy, I recommend a weekday visit if you can. We lucked out with a wonderful waitress who walked us through the menu, explained the different marinades, helped us explore our options, and even brought out extra sides for us to try. She was over the top and personal. Maybe you can request someone to do the same for you. She explained how the grill worked, the different ways each meat could be cooked, how to use each sauce, and made sure we knew what we were doing lol. For a couple of BBQ newbies, it was such a fun and interactive experience. Expect to spend between $30.00 - $50.00 per person, without a bar tab, and depending on your meat choices. We left happy and full, and walked away with a lot more knowledge than we arrived with. Highly recommend!

Ari in Plano stands out among Korean BBQ for me…read more The service and reliability of quality are the first things I think of. The servers are really friendly and have gotten to know us, so they remember what we like and don't and proactively accommodate. While I don't expect this from restaurants in general, it goes a long way and makes for a way better experience. We used to be regulars at a different location which is now under new management, and service & reliability there changed. We switched to this location when we heard that Plano was still run the way we liked, and had some of the former staff. Both turned out to be true, so it made a few minutes' farther drive well worth it. Like many other Korean bbq, Ari has a selection of meats to choose from. While we have some favorites (like seasoned prime short rib) all the ones I've tried them have been very good. I love the soybean soup and the salad with its very tasty dressing. The egg and cheese corn which cook alongside the grill seem are always be kept full if you want. There are many sides provided like kimchi and my favorite pickled radish, and unlike other places where these can be hit or miss, Water is provided, but I like to get the buckwheat tea. One thing I really appreciate is that the quality has reliable every time - there has not been a "the soup just wasn't as flavorful today" or "those radishes weren't pickled so well today" or an overcooked meat yet. These are small things, but they show care and attention, and are things I value a lot.

But…read moreI'm getting older and sometimes, soup is all I want as a meal lol Believe me when I say that you do not want to sleep on this place. The galbi tang is the best Korean soup that I've ever had. Yes, it's better than soondubu (tofu stew) or budae jjigae (army base stew). Our family makes both of these stews at home but once we discovered the galbi tang here, we order it at least once a month. Ok maybe at least twice a month lol The ajumma here is the sweetest person and I like to tell myself that everything from the soups to the banchan are her homemade recipes. I have no way of confirming if that's even true but even the banchan is delicious. My husband discovered this place when he ordered something here once last winter. I forget what it was but he was given a side of galbi tang in a small, stainless steel bowl and the rest is history. I love this place, I need it to be around forever so please come eat here and enjoy. You're welcome. My only suggestion is that I wish they would sell the banchan sets because I would buy them and eat them with rice. Delicious!

WHAT A FIND!! Loved…read morethis place. We went on a Sunday night (almost at 9:30 PM), so we were not expecting anyone to be here, but the place was 60-70% full. Ambiance is perfect with K-Pop playing in the background. Lets talk about the main thing here - FOOD. We got the Kimchi Chicken Fries (KCF) and the 10 pc wings with Seoul Hot and BBQ Soy Garlic. Ok, KCF was AWESOME. My wife is not always a big Kimchi fan and I had to fight her on these pieces :D We basically almost were gonna lick the paper if there was no one around, so if you do go here, absolutely get this one. Next we got the 10 PC wings. These have to be some of the best fried chicken I have had in DFW area. Seoul Hot is an amazing flavor. Not spicy but just a nice sweet heat that feels amazing. BBQ Soy Garlic was great too, but next time we are getting 20 of just the Seoul Hot haha. We also got drinks - Wife got the highball which had a decent punch and I got the yogurt Soju which made sure that I was zoom zoom zoom-ed by the end (we were super tired that day too so it felt just good and right).

They brought out the spicy fried chicken wings, which I believe the waiter said were a level 5. They were VERY spicy, but surprisingly still tasty! I would not recommend trying unless you can truly handle extreme spice. I'd definitely come back.
