    My partner & I heard nothing but good things about this place so we decided to give it a try. We had a reservation and waited about 20minutes for our table. We had ordered from the Premium menu, waited about 25-30minutes for our first plate, which was the cheesy corn then waited alittle more for the meat. Overall, my partner and I thought it was a good restaurant but for the price we paid and from our experience, it wasn’t the greatest.

    My husband and I came for a date night, had a reservation at 7:30 and was seated at around 8:00. We didn’t mind waiting especially since the standby time is usually 2-3 hours. Once we were seated our waitress came and she got us our drinks and food straight away! We opted for the AYCE ultimate tier, the food was amazing. No complaints at all! We also came on a Monday which is their all day happy hour menu, so that was a plus! 10/10, will definitely be coming back.

    They were out of a third of the items on the all you can eat menu - basic things like chicken breast. Customer service was so slow and awful. Restaurant does not look clean. Will not go back.

    Make sure you have a reservation. The place needs an overall update -- waiting area is dirty and dated. The tables were fine, and the meal was good. Service was friendly and attentive. Overall, I would return again.

    We enjoyed our visit to Gyu-Kaku so much, we returned in a week. Their staff was cordial, helpful and had such good energy. The first time we ordered a la carte, and had really nice quality prime kalbi, skirt steak, tongue, shrimp, asparagus and delicious beef babimbap. The draft Kirin Ichiban was a perfect beer for our meal. Jessica was our excellent server who encouraged us to download the Gyu-Kaku app. This was such a pleasant experience, we returned and this time tired theirPremium Holiday Magic dinner which had all of our favorite dishes, plus a delicious salad, miso soup, beef sushi appetizer, pork belly and even s’mores for dessert at a really nice price of $90 for 2. Jordan was at the front, and Maria was our server. They were so welcoming, and really added to the experience. The meats were seasoned so well, we didn’t even need the sauces. We’re so glad we rediscovered this gem of a delicious restaurant, and look forward to our next meal there.

    We went for an early dinner- 4:45- food was good, we ordered the ‘value’ meal. A 3 of the meats we received were fatty, 2 weren’t. The chicken was good. Our server was attentive without being overbearing.

    This used to be one of my favorite restaurants to eat dinner at, but it's simply changed for the worse. For starters, I had reservations but still waited over 30 minutes to be seated at my table from when I checked in...so not off to a great start...the food was just ok...not sure exactly what was missing from before, but it was just all a bit bland. The best part of the dinner was the service...our server was polite, and attentive and did a great job to make sure we had our food as ordered and kept our drinks filled...doubtful I'll ever go back though....just way too much $$$ for a long wait to be seated and average food.

    The 20 minute wait wasn't a problem, since it was Thanksgiving day, but there were no provisions for Covid safety and I was concerned. The food was very good and service was good, considering the crowd.

    Food was good...really think that thr happy hour food pricing was spot on. The couple of things thst have room for improvement...first the plastic sample cups given with the bottle of sake were much smaller than expected.and space on table was limited when all of the mains came out on plates ready for you to grill. Little more space would make having sake..dipping sauce plate and all the different items to grill more manageable

    always a really fun night, with really tasty food, and great service. High quality proteins with good selection of vegetables to grill at your own table. Request a cozy little booth for more privacy or share a big table with lots of friends and family.
