This is totally not acceptable!!!

Looking for a quick bite with a large group, the decision was to eat at the food court where…read moreeveryone had choices. After browsing around at the various options, I was attracted to all the veggies that would be freshly cooked with my meat(s) of choice. Watching the gentlemen cooking the food on the large grill was enticing as well. I opted for the medium bowl with offers 8oz of meat and unlimited veggies. At $19.99 It is so much food it could easily feed 2-3 people. How did 8oz of meat and tons of veggies turn into "tons of food"???? When they cook the meat and veggies, they cook it with a heaping pile of noodles. Once cooked, it fills a box. Just by the weight of it, you know if will be more than a meal. Served piping hot and fresh, it was delicious. For a food court meal, I was really impressed. The employees were working really hard, especially the men cooking. It was a nice change of pace to have Mongolian BBQ as a food court option.

Today, I came to Cerritos Mall to buy some stuff for my trip next month, and I got hungry and decided to stop by the Great Khan's. As you can tell from my pictures, this place is clean, which is why I enjoy coming here. I got myself a large Mongolian stir-fried noodle bowl with carrots, green peppers, onions, jalapeños, mushrooms, broccoli, and all their sauces and garlic. Their vegetable bar always looks fresh, and the clean area is always nice to see. The man who cooks the meal bowl has been working there for a while and already has the system perfected. He cooked my meal perfectly and always served it to me extremely hot. When I ordered my food and received it, it took about 10 minutes. My food was packed with flavor, hot and spicy, which I loved. The noodles were perfectly cooked and always the highlight of this meal. Add some Sriracha and soy sauce, and the meal is amped up by 100%. In conclusion, this meal cost me $22.98 and was worth every penny. If it wasn't obvious, I will be returning, and I highly recommend this place if you shop inside Cerritos Mall.

First time trying this KBBQ spot and wow... I've seriously been missing out. At first, I thought…read morethe whole ordering-through-your-phone setup would feel confusing or take away from the experience, but it was actually super easy and everything came out fast!! The side dishes were all delicious -- especially the spicy cucumbers, potato salad, bean sprouts, kimchi. But the meats were definitely the highlight. I went with the Silver Special and the bulgogi (top favorite here), beef belly, and brisket were all so good. The meat looked and tasted really high quality too, and they changed the grill quickly and often which I appreciated. Honestly, the whole menu looked amazing. I came in hungry and left completely full, but still wished I could've tried more definitely a sign I need to come back. I also noticed they had tortillas on the menu which was a cool fusion touch. I personally stick to rice paper, but still thought it was a fun addition. Everyone was really nice, the place was clean, and the prices were excellent for the quality and AYCE delicious food. Overall such a great experience -- easy 5/5 stars. Would absolutely come back again.

We arrived at about 6 o'clock on a Friday night and had to wait about 15 minutes. They have an electronic check-in system and you just enter your name and number in your party and wait. We tried to do it in advance, but it had been taken off-line from the Yelp app. The place was very busy and bustling with activity. It's a no nonsense resturant that is clean. Some of the tables are shared so you will have a table with two burners that can accommodate two parties of four. While we were close to our neighbors, we had enough separation that we felt like we had a private table. Once we were seated, we were presented the menu that has essentially three AYCE menu options. Our waiter was very attentive and explained the online ordering to us and we were off. When we ordered the the food, it came out quickly. The meat was tender and flavorful. The banchan was pretty standard, but good. I particularly liked the spicy pork and the glass noodles. My family really enjoyed the brisket and the kimchi pancake. My daughter ordered the spicy Ramen, which was her least favorite thing. It was very peppery tasting. All in all, it was a great place for a family meal. We all enjoyed it very much and are looking forward to coming back.

Exceptional Service Recognition - Jonathan Delgado & GEN Cerritos Team…read more I am writing to formally recognize the truly exceptional service my family and I received during my daughter Dacia's 10th birthday dinner at GEN Korean BBQ in Cerritos. To be fully transparent, I arrived at the restaurant extremely concerned. I had been experiencing difficulty securing a reservation and was worried I would not be able to accommodate my large party of approximately 20 guests. Given the last-minute nature of my visit, I fully expected to be turned away. Instead, what I experienced was nothing short of extraordinary. From the moment I walked in, the staff demonstrated professionalism, empathy, and a genuine willingness to help. They immediately recognized that I was doing everything possible to make my daughter's birthday special and went above and beyond to ensure our family was taken care of. Manager Jonathan Delgado elevated the experience to an entirely different level. As a 17-year combat veteran, I am very mindful of environments that can sometimes feel overwhelming due to my PTSD. Without hesitation -- and with remarkable awareness and respect -- Jonathan made sure I was seated in an area where I felt comfortable and at ease. He approached the situation with professionalism, discretion, and genuine care that meant more to me and my family than I can fully express. Jonathan did not simply accommodate us -- he led with empathy, situational awareness, and true customer-first leadership. Throughout the evening, he remained engaged, attentive, and proactive. He made my entire family feel welcomed, valued, and genuinely cared for. His interaction with my children -- especially on my daughter's birthday -- showed a level of heart and authenticity that is rare in today's customer service environment. I have been dining at GEN for over 13 years across multiple locations, and I can say without hesitation that I have NEVER experienced the level of attention, care, professionalism, and genuine hospitality that Jonathan and his team delivered that evening. His team clearly reflects his leadership. The staff worked seamlessly, maintained outstanding energy, and ensured our large party was supported every step of the way. The experience was smooth, warm, and memorable from start to finish. Jonathan Delgado is a top-tier manager who represents the GEN brand at the highest possible standard. Employees like him do not just manage restaurants -- they build loyalty, trust, and lifelong customers. Because of this experience, my confidence in the GEN brand -- particularly the Cerritos location -- has been fully reinforced. My daughter had an unforgettable 10th birthday, and that is directly because of Jonathan and his incredible team. Please ensure Jonathan Delgado and the Cerritos staff receive the recognition they have absolutely earned. With sincere appreciation, Henry Alvarado17-Year Combat VeteranCEO & Founder, At Ease HQ

I hadn't been to Gen in years, but I remembered it being good quality with solid service. I was…read moredeciding between Gen, Ziggle, and Mr. Lee's, and figured I'd pay a little more for better food and service. Plot twist: I chose wrong. We came on a Monday around 5 PM with a party of 8, and the place was already packed. After about a 30-minute wait, the hostess walked us toward our table, then suddenly turned around and walked back to the cashier without saying anything. Naturally, we thought the table next to us was ours and started sitting down. She came back and said, "Hey, that's not your table," then walked us to a booth that was technically for 8 people... if everyone skipped breathing. One grill for 8 people also felt like a team-building exercise. Our server zipped back and forth for about 10 minutes avoiding eye contact. Then he finally came over and said, "What do you guys want to order?" No intro, no menu explanation, no "Have you been here before?" Just straight into business like we eat there every Monday. For 8 people, we got four tiny sides of kimchi and had to ask for more. I tried to give them the benefit of the doubt because maybe they were short-staffed, but even the basics felt missing. Then a busboy dropped off 8 bowls of white rice we didn't order and disappeared like he was in a rice delivery speedrun. The meat came out fast, but quality was disappointing. The brisket was thick and chewy, the short ribs were paper-thin and mostly fat, and the purple steak was about 50% fat. At that point, I was just grilling regret. I do give them credit for bringing out the meats quickly. Overall, Gen feels like it has gone downhill in both food quality and service. It seems like they're still busy enough that they don't really have to care. I left wishing we had gone to Ziggle or Mr. Lee's instead.

We ordered a medium combo of large intestines half spicy and half regular. We also added an order of spicy pork belly. Everything was so good and you can tell they use high quality intestines/meat. Next time though, I will stick to the regular, as the spicy sauce makes the meat a bit too sweet and greasy. Their cold noodle was so good and refreshing! It paired super well with the intestines/meat. The staff were super attentive and kept checking up on us! Their set up is really cool, as they have the chairs with the compartment where you can put your belongings inside to prevent the smell.

The Korean corn dogs are the real star here. Crispy on the outside with that signature crunchy coating, and soft, cheesy goodness on the inside--every bite is insanely satisfying. Whether you go for the classic sausage, the half mozzarella combo, or one of the loaded options rolled in toppings like potatoes or crunchy crumbs, you really can't go wrong. The texture alone is next level. What makes these Korean-style hotdogs stand out is the variety and creativity. They're not just your average corn dogs--they're coated in panko or unique toppings and often filled with gooey cheese, which gives them that iconic stretch and flavor people love . The sauces take everything up another notch. Sweet, spicy, tangy--mix and match to your taste and you've got a flavor combo that hits every time. Pair it with a side like tteokbokki or fries, and it turns into the perfect comfort meal. Overall, this spot nails it with flavor, texture, and creativity. If you've never had a Korean corn dog before, this is the place to try it--and if you have, you already know why it's worth coming back again and again. Definitely a 5-star experience!

My go-to items are the Belgium waffle, cinnamon roll French toast, home style potatoes, and sausage links. Everything always comes out hot, fresh, and fast. They also have a huge menu, so there's something for everybody. The service is always friendly, even when they're super busy, and they do a great job keeping things moving.

It felt like you…read morewere in a Kdrama episode when the main characters have KkBQ - it was very aesthetic- almost like you're in Seoul. This is NOT AYCE. The quality of meats were absolutely outstanding- not frozen- it was fresh. They cook it for you and if you have never had hot kimchi on that grill- you will LOVE IT! The service was amazing - David and his crew were all so helpful! We selected the beef belly, brisket, beef tongue and the Honey Pig pork belly. Omg their steam eggs were delicious too! They also make kimchi fried rice for you after you're done with your meats and if you have leftover on the grill. Better for party of 5 or 6 but if you have a party of 9 they'll split you but you'll be seated near each other! It totally worked out. The wait was not long at all around 6:40 pm on a Saturday night. Makes you rethink AYCE when you have this. Parking lot is pretty big.

Men's washroom was clean and had paper towels... good. I'm glad to see that the guys working at this establishment tucked their shirts in which I consider to be a professional look. I did notice that one of the employees had a Red Tag on his right back pocket. I consider the food to be so good that it is worth any diarrhea that might follow afterwards!
