When you drive by this Manna it can be intimidating because there's usually a long line to wait, but it's definitely worth it. My husband and I typically get the Premium Menu because it's really reasonably priced at $37. I like it because get additional cuts of meat that are nicer than the basic option, I specifically like getting their Rib Eye, it's a good portion even if it's one per person, service is always really fast and efficient and I never feel like I'm waiting for a new grill or for more food. I do stuff my face with their steamy eggs so in this economy and egg situation that's a splurge on it's own, lol. Definitely check them out, parking and lines can be a deterrent but the wait is well worth it.

High quality ayce meat at reasonable prices! The normal menu is $30, and the premium is $35. I would recommend the premium as it's not that much more expensive, and it comes with the goutsal short rib fillet and beef tongue, which were my two favorites. The goutsal had great marbling, and the beef tongue texture is delicious. One thing to note is that their meat portions are huge, especially for the pork belly, so be careful not to over order! I also love that they have all the standard sides and banchan, like kimchi, japchae, and rice paper. However something that I don't always see is the raw garlic and green onion salad, which complemented the meat so well. I would also recommend asking for sesame oil and adding it to your salt for dipping the meat! The wait was around 45 minutes for a party of 4 on a 7pm on Friday. Luckily we were able to pass the time by walking around the Hmart and Kawaii House next door. The vibes are casual and busy due to all the orders and servers going around.

So glad I was able to try this Manna location. For years I have been wanting to go to the location in LA but havent made it there yet. We got there about 12pm, a bit after opening. Parking was easy for the most part. We were seated immediately, place was clean and lively. Out server was friendly and quick. All the items we tried on the menu were fresh and tasted well. The place wasnt all covered in grease like other kbbqs. Pricing was standard, about $30+ but the meats werent crappy. I really enjoyed my visit, imo this is better than GEN.

I haven't been back to this location since the renovation, and there are a few noticeable changes. There is a new pay-for-parking sign. The first two hours are free. The wait time is still long, but the process remains convenient: you put your name down and get a text when your table's ready. I really like the new ordering screens--they've made getting your food a lot faster and more efficient. I visited on a Tuesday for dinner, so I'm not sure if the service would be as speedy on a busy weekend. The meat selection and quality is still very good. The premium set is $35.99 and the regular set is $29.99. I always get the chadol, nuk gan sal, and LA Galbi. Despite the long wait times, this spot remains my favorite for Korean BBQ.

For the longest time, I thought Manna BBQ had closed down, but the other day, while driving by, I saw a long line in front of the restaurant. Of course, we had to stop by with the kids! They remodeled the place, and it looks fantastic. This restaurant holds a special place in my heart because it's where my husband took me on our first date. The food is just as amazing as I remember, the servers are incredibly friendly, and the host seated us right away. Born and raised in San Diego, we've yet to find a better KBBQ spot. Their quality and standards haven't changed--everything is still top-notch. So glad to have our go-to KBBQ spot back!

I've been coming here for years and the food and price are always good! They're the cheapest kbbq in SD I know of but the quality and food are great, my go to spot! I never really wait long since I typically go for an early dinner but this time, we went around 6:30 pm on a Friday and it took us 10 mins to be seated. I love how they now have a tablet on the table so you can easily order what you want and when you want! Everything is good with the galbi and brisket being my favorites. Service is fast and restaurant is clean and spacious.

Literally amazing. We got the A2 and it was around $30 per person. Cuts of meat were fresh, mushrooms were somewhat tough but doable on the grill, they only had one intestine choice. My mom loved the egg soup, and that you can get unlimited there. It was $110 for 3 people after taxes and tip. Loved that you can get unlimited fish cake too. Inside was super clean, love how they set up ice, water, and salad for you. Service was fired. We loved the Manna Steak, beef rolls and the iPad for ordering.

It's been years since I've been to Manna since there were many other KBBQ spots that have opened up which I thought were better than Manna. However, I went back to Manna for the first time after years and wow I was so impressed with how much they improved and dare I say, it might become my favorite again! Parking: Depending when you go, expect it to be a nightmare since the small parking is shared with many other businesses. There's some street parking though. We didn't have problems finding a spot at the time we went. Wait: Our party of 2 went at 1pm on a Thursday and there wasn't a wait. Though, they still had us put our name down on the tablet up front. Service: I really appreciated that our table had the ringer to call the servers so we didn't have to spend time having to wave anybody down. I noticed in other tables that they had tablets where you can order from it, which was cool to see. The employees were on point: we never had to wait for grill to be changed (the lady was so fast and efficient), once you rang the bell, within 10 seconds someone was there. Everything was delivered very fast. Price: A1 with the premium meets costs $35.99 and A2 costs only $29.99. We ordered the A2 which is a very reasonable price compared to other KBBQ spots. Food: In my opinion, the quality of the meats were decent. Loooved the Teriyaki Beef Belly and their regular Beef Belly. Loved that the corn cheese was already made versus having to heat it over the grill. My husband loved that they give a generous amount of radish paper and rice paper. Appreciated that you could order Gochujang on the side. Overall: I was very impressed with the new Manna. Exceptional service, great quality meats. Will definitely come back.
