Many other places will limit your portions of Wagyu, but here it is truly unlimited! Get the Exclusive AYCE option if you wanna get unlimited Japanese A5 Wagyu!! They'll see me many more times for many more special occasions and when I crave KBBQ without breaking the bank.

The meats were fresh, well-marinated, and cooked perfectly right at the table--honestly couldn't stop eating.

Customer service was disappointing, and there was no air conditioning. After a long, exhausting day…read moreat Comic-Con, we were looking forward to enjoying some KBBQ. When we arrived, the restaurant was uncomfortably hot, and we almost left because of it, but we were too hungry to go elsewhere. The service only got worse. When we were ready to leave, we requested the check six different times and even used the call button multiple times, but no one came. We ended up having to get up and approach a staff member ourselves before we finally received our bill. By that point, we just wanted to get out of the restaurant as quickly as possible. Between the poor customer service, the excessive wait just to pay, and the lack of A/C, the experience was very disappointing. We won't be returning to this location anytime soon.

I just had this Tasty Pot today and wowy wow it was super delicious. My friends have been telling…read moreme about hot pot and were overjoyed when I heard about this place. The staff were very friendly and inviting and attentive as well. The place was very clean and I love the decor. Okay the food, was amazing. I think my eyes were bigger than my stomach because I ordered extra add ons. I got the Beef Hot Soup in mild with rice on the side. For add ons I got extra beef and extra meat ball. I also got the fried tofu. Everything looked and smelled amazing. It was flavorful and very appealing to the eye presentation wise. Pricing is not bad, I feel it's on par with hot pot places. You order from the app which is really nice but they also got menus if you're not tech savvy. All in all I gotta say from my first time my opinion on the place is it's 10/10. It's great that we finally got a Tasty Pot in Oceanside. Would definitely recommend to anyone.

Same concept as other Tasty pots: order through your phone (or ask help if you need or don't have a phone). I love their appetizers, huge plus for the stinky tofu and MaLa spicy pot.

Came here after Legoland and we made a reservation since this place gets busy. First time here, the…read moreplaza was crowded when it comes to parking. This was a different Korean BBQ experience, very unique because you actually get to choose and grab your own meat, and their salad bar had good selections from spice to non-spice. Also, the perks they serve boba drinks here which was a plus for the kids, small selection, but it had Tapioca which made them happy. The table setting can be a bit tight, chairs close to other tables was my only con. The meat was favorable, the staff members were attentive and the kids loved the fact that they had a variety to choose from. I do like how they have the fans above the grill because it didn't smell as much like a typical Korean BBQ restaurant.

I paid $140.00 through Groupon, and after the service, they tried to charge me an additional $58 in…read moregratuity. This additional charge was not clearly explained to me when I arrived or before the service began. When I questioned the charge, the employee simply told me to "read the menu." I took a picture of the fine print because it was extremely difficult to read and was not clearly presented. If there is a mandatory gratuity or additional fee, it should be clearly disclosed to customers before they receive the service--not afterward. I explained that I did not agree to the additional $58 charge and that I was willing to leave a reasonable tip based on the original $140 amount I had already paid through Groupon. What made the situation even more upsetting was what happened while I was paying the bill in cash. My child was recording me with the camera while I made the cash payment, and the employee grabbed my child's arm because he was recording. I found it completely inappropriate for an employee to physically grab my child simply because he was recording me making the payment. I also put a picture of the menu where she told me I supposed to find the information about the extra charges. It's not legible. I was extremely disappointed by the customer service, the way my child was treated, and the lack of transparency regarding the additional charges. Based on my personal experience, I would not recommend this place.

We were a little nervous entering because we have never had Chamorro/Indigenous Guam food before…read moreand we were worried it would be far out of our comfort zone. It isn't - it's akin to Hawaiian food or Polynesian Food with its sauces, carbs, and protein options. We loved our visit! The food here was so good. It was admittedly on the heavier side, but it was very satisfying. We were really sad we didn't get another opportunity to visit. We got: Guam Bomb - Definitely order this! It's loaded fries with grilled chicken, spicy mayo, cheese, onions, and bbq sauce. It was so good and savoury. Beef Rib Plate - This was great too! It came with an interesting soy sauce-esque dip and it went well with the red rice, and macaroni salad it had. We really wanted the pork belly but sadly they ran out that day. Guahan Grill has great customer service as well. They were super friendly and were helpful when ordering.

Friendly service, spacious location about two blocks from the beach. Good stuff.

Family brought me for early Mother's Day Dinner and I had no idea such a place existed here in…read moreOceanside. The unassuming exterior and simple but elegant interior greeted us with low lighting and quiet atmosphere. We sat at a table of 6 and immediately knew we were in for a treat. We all had the 10 course meal and although I can't do justice to describing each item- let's just say every bite is a treat for the tastebuds. You could do substitutions and add ons. I added wagyu for additional 55$ but I'm sure the duck would of been just as good. The pork too surprised me as my family raised pigs as a kid and I don't usually eat but the pork dish- with pigs that were raised with special diet and spa-like treatment/ well... the stories added to the dish. Things like pine were unexpected delights. The drinks were all amazing and we tried mixed drinks, sake, and something I rarely see and is worth noting- great mocktails. The service was outstanding and everyone was friendly, polite, knew their job, and quietly was there between each course with fresh silverware. All was completed with a sense of effortlessness. My daughter mentioned to her dad she was waiting on a drink and the manager heard and without hesitation said it was on the way/ and on the house. We chuckled as the bill of course was more than we had ever spent on a single meal, but enjoyed every minute. What struck me about ambiance is we felt as if we were the only ones there although I saw several tables on other side of restaurant. In addition although 6 of us in a circle - we were able to converse with each other with ease. Come with an open mind and be prepared for the best meal you may ever have. Pricey but worth it if you want to create a memory sure to please.

3.5 stars We came here because they're closing at the end of…read morethe month. So, Yes it was a bit pricy but i wanted to try it before it closed. Made reservations online for the tasting menu $225. The place is in the middle of nowhere, from the outside you'd never guess it was fine dining. We started off with a trio of little bites, a tile fish gungakn roll, fried mochi threads, and an acorn cracker filled with camembert cheese. The raw tile fish gunkan was ok, the mochi threads were nice and crunchy, the camembert cheese was too pungent for me. Hamachi/Raspberry - slices of Yellow tail and raspberry in a ponzu sauce. The ponzu stood out most and gave it a salty profile i couldn't really distinguish between the hamachi and the raspberry as the textures were similar. Artichoke Kohlrabi gyoza with a bri sauce. This dish was very good though i thought it was more like ravioli than gyoza. It even looked like ravioli. I think they just called it gyoza to make it fit the Japanese theme. Shrimp tempura was delicious! it was lightly battered and fried and put in a shallow bowl of shrimp broth. They said it came with dynamite sauce but i think it was just kewpie mayo. Very good and one of my favorites of the evening. Chicken wing stuffed with scallop, part of the wing was deboned and stuffed with a Hokkaido scallop. It was very tasty, the scallop was very sweet and tender. I wish the skin of the chicken wing was crispier. It was quite charred but did not crack when bitten into it and a little rubbery. Tile fish had a very crispy skin and came with a beautiful sauce of i think apples and apricots and a walnut butter. I really liked the sauce that was spooned on the plate. another one of my favorites of the evening. Duck done 2 ways; roasted and a fried tsukune meatball. They both came in a light carrot sauce. The fat on the roasted piece was nicely rendered and the duck meat very tender. The tsukune was nicely fried and crispy and still rare inside. The palate cleanser was a pine ice cream with Aloe Jelly, The pine ice cream was quite refreshing and smooth i thought the aloe jelly was a bit strong tasting. I think flavor came from the geranium but something had a strong taste to it. The dessert was also one of my favorites White chocolate with hokkaido milk powder on top of miso ice cream and slices of tangerine. It was supposed to be reminiscent of a creamsicle. The Hokkaido milk power was magic on the shards of white chocolate, the miso ice cream was very smooth and dense and when eaten together with the pieces of manderin orange did remind me of a creamsicle. They gave us a trio of finishing dishes a trio of bites; Castella cake, Kokuto jelly and raspberry mochi. The castella cake didn't really stand out, it wasn't the sweet dense cake that im used to. The kokuto jelly had that deep brown sugar taste but was too stiff in my opinion. The raspberry mochi had a strong raspberry flavor which i loved and had a good chew to it. Service was exceptional, water was filled many times almost every time the water glass went down 1/4 it was filled to the top. Each course was preceded with the proper utensiles and were cleared after each dish. i must have had at least 4 forks and 4 spoons. Definilty 5 star (Michilin style) service. Food was very good maybe 4 stars. Value was ok maybe 3 stars. If you divided the courses by the price it came to $25 per course. If you looked at the ala cart menu, many of the items were there and could be had for less than $25, of course not all the dishes on the tasting menu were available ala cart. But i feel if you sat at the bar and ordered a cocktail and maybe 5-6 dishes you't still pay a hefty price but it would be much less than $225. I feel like thats the way to go instead of the tasting menu. Come here if you want exceptional service.

We were on a family vacation and happened to come across this place while walking near our hotel…read more The adults had ordered pizza from somewhere else, so we only ordered two boxes of popcorn chicken for the kids. Honestly, we weren't expecting much. But after the first bite, we were all surprised. The chicken tasted just like Korean fried chicken (and we're Korean!), and it was incredibly crispy. It seemed like they used fresh oil because the coating was light, clean, and not greasy at all. All three families tried it, and everyone agreed it was delicious. We ended up coming back later that evening to order more for the adults! We got the sauce on the side, and it tasted just like authentic Korean sweet and spicy fried chicken sauce. I know this place specializes in hot dogs, so I never expected the popcorn chicken to be this good. It was honestly one of the best Korean-style fried chicken flavors we've had, and the price was very reasonable too. I really wish they would open a location in our neighborhood. Not every place that claims to serve Korean fried chicken actually tastes like it, but this one absolutely does. If you're looking for authentic Korean-style fried chicken, I highly recommend giving their popcorn chicken a try!

I'm so glad we decided to give it a try. We have several anime fans in our household, so it was exciting to recognize all the characters displayed throughout the restaurant. The kids loved them too! We were greeted immediately when we walked in, and every staff member was incredibly kind and attentive. After ordering at the counter, we took our number and found a slightly wonky--but charming and sturdy--solid-wood table. Different movies were playing on the TVs, which kept the kids entertained while we waited for our food. We ordered sushi and ramen, and my ramen was exquisite. I believe it was called the Dark Knight, and it was absolutely delicious. I was also pleasantly surprised to see Orion beer on draft. Having lived in Okinawa, where the brewery is based, it was wonderfully nostalgic and added another layer of authenticity to the experience. Everything about our visit was wonderful, and we'll definitely be dining here again. They also advertise special events inside the restaurant. I don't remember the details, but I'll be sure to check them out during our next visit!
