Gyu-Kaku - Bellevue, WA

I’m here once in a while and the service is usually good. Although this is the second time I dined in ever since everything got opened back up again. My friend and I came in 30 minutes early before our reservation just because we overestimated how long it would take us to get there. The employees said it was going to be a few minutes and told us to wait outside, so we did. But after a while other parties started to arrive and they were allowed to wait inside and were sat first. We understood that others may of had a reservation before us so we weren’t concerned. Without any notice the employees kept sitting other parties that were waiting inside before us. We started to get confused because we were told it would only take a few minutes but then as people left other parties that arrived after us were sat first. No one came to inform us how much longer it would have been. Thirty minutes have past and an employee asked us what was the name under our reservation. If we would’ve known it was going to be a while for us to be seated we would’ve just waited in the car, rather than outside in the cold. I honestly was upset that we were the only ones asked to wait outside as well as not being told or even updated on how long it was going to take for our table. I understand we were early but it would’ve been nice if we were informed that we had to wait till our original reservation time.

I was great!

Post Pandemic safety procedures were very well handled. The hostess was gracious in advising about wait times even with reservations. Highly recommend making reservations, it makes things simpler for all parties. The was the same. I missed being able to go there, cooking the food, the marinades, everything was delicious.

A good place to have barbeque. Good selection of meats.

A little pricey but overall a great meal and experience. I will go back.

You basically cook your own food with the 'grill' in the middle of the table. Ingredients were fresh. Wish there are more veggie options. The rice dishes were prepared, they are tasty. The service was great and a fun place to dine and catch-up.

Service is always outstanding! Server, bus boy are so attentive, the greeter lady ( Asian, shoulder hair) ignored us for good 12 min and never said hi cuz she was busy but everyone else was super nice( the lady with long lashes was polite and informative). Food can get up to a different level when you order it individually, best value is lunch special or combo, reservation is always recommended. I love my server Nicole and the bus boy! They are so sweet and awesome!!! I spent about 18k in the past three visit for big parties but it is worth it! Food is tasty and atmospheres awesome for team gathering!

Not worth the money. Korean BBQ is much better.

I reserved this on Open Table with a note that it was for a birthday. They never sang happy birthday, just gave the bill. It wasn’t when I was singing Happy Birthday and taking a video of my son that they offered to sing Happy Birthday. The moment had passed and I was not happy yet I tipped well. It was so bad that I deleted my videos because I simply wanted to forget this dinner.

It was a great experience for my friend who was a first timer!

It was average, I don't need to go back. Wasn't terrible.

Superb worth it will definitely be back!!!

Really cool place for date night or group get-together. Had a group of five and had more than enough food with the menu samplings they have. Great experience. VERY fast service and helpful wait staff. Will definitely go again and would highly recommend.

The food was great, the service was excellent and the overall ambiance was nice. Would definitely recommend.

Ok place to go.

Love Guy Kaku and we went celebrate Lunar New Years. Great fun and great food

We were really disappointed. We ate at the restaurant in Hawaii, the food and service were really good. It was like a completely different place.

Great food as always. This is the first time we tried the brunch menu (till 3pm), and it’s of great value comparing to the regular menu.

Good place to have bbq!

Reservation was made for 4:15p but didn’t get seats until 4:30p took over 40’ for the food came out, very slow, server wasn’t really around ... probably won’t come back again

Meats were flavorful. Hot sake should have been served with a warmer, as it was lukewarm to begin with and room temp later. Server Nicole was very good.

We were very pleased over all.
I’d go back with friends and family

Everything was great! Food and service! Great restaurant

Compared to usual, the service was a lot worse. We were never checked up on:
- we were missing sauces and asked repeatedly for a replacement. we ended up taking a bottle from a table that was empty
- we never got a refill on drinks until we asked
- we never got a grill change until we asked twice
- we never were asked if we wanted additional orders until last call

We had a great time and the food was excellent. A little expensive, but you get what you pay for!

Was seated 10 mins after reservation, it took 20 mins after being seated before we were greeted by wait staff (we asked for help several times), and it took an additional 20 mins before food ever hit our table after ordering. Absolutely horrible service.

Food and service was good .. I used this app for the first time .. I booked my table for 530pm . We arrived at 5:29.. we were seated at 5:50
Not great

The ramen was tasteless, but steak and chicken were good.

After I ordered, my server disappeared and NEVER came back to double checked if everything is ok...I still gave him good tip because it's a holiday season but will never go back there again ( food was ok )

Great food we all love it!

The server was not very attentive at all. She said she was going to bring us bowls to share the food, and she never came back to us. The food was great though.

Arrived a bit early for a date night but staff was accommodating, kind, and very responsive. First time having Japanese BBQ but instructions were easy to follow and I felt comfortable asking questions. Food, drinks, and experience was amazing and fun. Ordered the holiday course for two, strawberry mojito, and gin and ginger. Would recommend! Note: it gets warm and a bit noisy because of the grill but it’s part of the experience and to be expected, I could still comfortably talk with date :)

Extremely fun experience! The meats we selected were just delicious.

Absolutely LOVED it! It would be great to invite friends and enjoy. Lots of

fried chicken is always my fav dishes... but this time it was super dark brown color,, way over cooked, or they just re-fried it when customer order.. couldn’t believe server can actually put this on the table, but he replaced it after we pointed it out to him. Other than that, it’s good, just usual gyu kaku experience

Oh!! But they got lady M cake, which is a highlighted!!! It was sooo good!

Food was very good. Service can be improved better.

The service was a little off tonight. Maybe it was because it was a busy Friday night. We had to ask for them to change our grill plate. They forgot to put in an order, did not bring enough tea for the table, and did not give us the advertised holiday gifts. At the end, we got two marshmallows and two s’mores sets for eight people to split. They also forgot to charge for our cokes, but it was so hard to flag down someone regarding that, so we got free coke.

Value combo for 4, we are pretty full with the combo and it’s decently priced.

I will absolutely come back here. It was delicious!!!!!

Despite having reservations, we had to wait quite a while for our table. We sat next to a window that had a few holes and cracks in it which made it REALLY cold (the weather outside was in the low 30s). Food was delicious and servers were all polite and attentive.
