    Gyu-Kaku is my favorite restaurant, I’ve visited locations in NYC, Miami, and Charlotte & always receive excellent service. I consistently order the same drink: The Lychee Gin Mojito with tequila instead of gin, & I’ve never had an issue with a simple liquor substitution. However, on 6/27/25 around 9:30pm at the Times Square location, the bartender Will was unnecessarily rude and dismissive. He insisted I’d be charged for Patron, even though I never requested a premium brand but only just a swap of house liquor. When I explained my experience at other locations, he ignored me and walked away. As a fellow bartender, I found his attitude unprofessional and frankly discriminatory. His behavior made me feel unwelcome and ruined my experience at a place I’ve long enjoyed. I won’t return to this location, and I hope Gyu-Kaku takes steps to ensure all guests are treated with respect and fairness—regardless of race. So disappointed this was my first time at the Times Square location & will NEVER be back. Go to Flushing! They are wonderful there.

    It took 20 minutes after paying/handing over the bill paid with cash to get change. Never seen anything like it living and dining in NYC for 35 years

    AMAZING! This was my third time at this location and they never disappoint. We did supreme AYCE for a group of four, plus a beer tower and some happy hour cocktails. The price was incredible for so much amazing food. Outstanding service - everything was brought of in such an organized, quick manner and all of the staff we interacted with were attentive and super kind.

    レストランに設置されていた傘置き場に傘を置いていたのですが、帰るときに残念ながら2本とも誰かに持っていかれてしまいました。 一番ショックだったのは、レストランのマネージャーが「置くように強制したわけじゃない」と、まるで関係ないかのような冷たい対応をしたことです。 お店の中を濡らさないようにと思って傘置き場を利用したのに、そんなふうに言われて本当にがっかりです。
