Shozen BBQ

Operating on Mira Mesa Boulevard—and also known as Shozen Manpo—the homey dining room pairs all-you-can-eat table grilling with an expanded menu featuring a la carte sushi and bibimbap. Grill selections lean on cuts like marinated kalbi, fatty brisket, bulgogi, and Berkshire pork, drawing diners who look for better meat quality than the typical buffet format. Servings run notably heavy, flanked by rounds of house-made banchan that can easily compete with the meats for table space.
