The service is attentive and they make wonderful recommendations. My kids love the experience and the s’mores for dessert. The food is flavorful and lots of options to choose from. Our favorites were the secret pot flank steak that they grilled for us on our table and cut into pieces, beef sukiyaki bimbibap and shrimp ají. A good alternative to Korean BBQ in a more convenient and less crowded location.

When we were seated they said we have 90 minutes to eat and leave which would be fine but it took 20 minutes to get any service then while still eating dessert they said our time is up and we have to leave. It felt upsetting to spend so much money and feel so aggressively rushed.

My guest and I came here for my boyfriends birthday. He specifically told me, “babe I wanna go to the Resturant where I grill my own food!” Lol. I immediately knew to take him here. When we arrived our reservation for a party of 6 was for 7:30pm. We were seated pretty late because the establishment was busy that day but aside from that the service was great! Our waiter responded very quickly to our needs & when it was time to bring out the birthday cake it was exactly how I asked. Overall, good spot to come to for sure!

This was our first time at this location of Gyu-Kaku, but we've been to the White Plains and Times Sq locations before. If you haven't been to a Gyu-Kaku, it's a good time. You pick out fresh meats and veggies and grill them at your table. I, personally, think it's fantastic, and go every chance I get. The cool thing about this location is that it's on the second floor. My husband and I were escorted to our table, which was a cute booth facing the window. So we sat side by side facing our table and grill with the cityscape beyond. It was a nice surprise. The only weird thing about this location is the entrance...it gets quite cramped in the waiting area/men's bathroom entrance/hostess counter. That's a lot of stuff going on in one place, which could definitely be improved upon, but otherwise, a delightful experience!

Our first time here. Came for pre-theater dinner for family of four. We were greeted nicely. Hostess recognized our need for a bigger table, and sat us on the nice table facing the street (beautiful view from the top). Waitress was very attentive. Explained how their menu works, and made recommendations to food. Drinks came fast, also we were in a happy hour and got two for one deal. All the meats were fresh and cooked within minutes. We were given choices to substitute shrimp (due to seafood allergy). Lots of appetizers with the pre-set meal. At the end the desert was this delicious s’more for each person. Overall pretty good experience. We will return
