A little on the pricy side if you are selecting premium meats, but the flavour and tenderness of the premium is well worth the addition. Melt in your …

10 Reviews on “Gyu-Kaku Japanese BBQ”
This is an great place to come with a group of friends as you are cooking your meal around a grill in the middle of your table. The concept is virtually identical to the more common Korean BBQ with the exception of Japanese sides, different meat marinades and Japanese sauces. I found the ventilation wasn’t perfect so if you wear glasses be aware that you may have aerosol from the cooking oil deposit on the surface of the table and your glasses. They offer a huge menu with a la carte options and BBQ combos. I will be back to try some of the other combos but I get the premium meats combo the last two times I went and it was excellent quality with way more than enough food to fill your stomach.
Been here twice. I really enjoy the food. Brought my kids here on the second visit and they really enjoyed their udon noodles. Service is friendly and prompt.
I’d really would give 3.5. Japanese BBQ focusing on grilled meat. We were 3 and ordered the set for 3 + 1 order of Kobe beef. It was all good and enough food. We also ordered desserts to share, which was ok. The green tea cheese cake is better than the mochi black sesame icecream. The bill came to about $50 per person. The service was ok. It’s a good place to get together with friends once in a while. I’d prefer more traditional sushi and sashimi than this. It was ok overall.
Never give such a high rating but if you love bbq and you love flavors this place Is for you. Never have been disappointed here. Been about 4 times. Always great service. Their dumplings are awesome. Their bbq meat is very good and consistent experiences here.
I have been wanting to try this new place for awhile now, today I finally got a reservation for four. We were seated quickly had an amazing server that was attentive and always coming to check on us, refilling our drinks to changing our plates. When I first walked in the door, it reminded me of a Korean restaurant the smell and the small BBQ pit in the middle of each table and each table has a selection of three sauces Sweet Soy, Ponzu & Spicy (wish they had more unique sauces).We were overwhelmed by their menu selections so we decided to order a party combo Samurai for 4′ then added a few extra dishes. Pork Toro, Duck Breast, Sweet Onions, Spinach Garlic & Fried Bacon Chips. The Harami Miso Steak was really good flavorful and the Miso really works with it. The Duck Breast was not that great no flavor to it. The best dishes were the Harami Steak, Chicken Thigh Basil, Filet Mignon, Kalbi Short Ribs, Garlic Shrimp, Pork Belly & Garlic Noodles. The Veggies I had issues with, the eggplant had no marinade so it was really dry and almost chewy, The Spinach Garlic was a joke, there were so little of it that only 2..2 people got to try it. They both got so little themselves it was not even a tablespoon each. The onions you have to pay for which I think it should be included in the meat dishes. At this point I thought it was better at a Korean Restaurant cause they always throw in onions and mushrooms. The only differences between the two culture foods is the selection of meats and veggies. The total cost for 4 people was $45/pp with no alcoholic drinks and no desserts, all 4 of us had sodas with free refills. This is a great place for socialising with friends and just relaxing and having a good time. This place is very popular with the young office crowd. Lunch is always packed, reservation is strongly suggested. Overall I would rate this place a 3/5. Again great hang out but can be pricey. Keep in mind that this is a Tapas style restaurant.
Been there a few times. It’s ok, nothing special. For this kind of barbecue, the grill needs to be changed quite often, otherwise meat is very easy to be burnt.
Fun place to visit with friends. The meal is very social. I traveled to Japan a fee years ago and this is the closest I have found to the bbq there. The meats are tasty and you cook them at your table. The sides are also good. Great drinks specials too. Make sure to have a reso. as it is busy
