☆5-Star Experience, hands down! We came for our anniversary recently. It was outstanding with the All-You-Can-Eat Premium dinner option. 45+ proteins, veggies, appetizers, soups, salads, etc. all included for one price: $54/person. Choose whatever you like and grill your own items. Delicious, savory, spicy, saucy, and simply a lot of fun dining there. Our waitress was awesome, attentive, informative, and helpful too! This was an incredible and relaxing dinner event. I would highly recommend it to anyone who's never been to this type of restaurant. Such a blast and will visit again soon. Thanks, Gyu-Kaku 😋!!

Went for a friends birthday party, the meats were super good, better quality then some other Korean BBQ places. We did the course meal which might be the best bang for your buck without having a time limit. The all you can eat looked enticing at first but with three different tiers to choose and no increase in time limit for the additional items it seemed not worth it.

Great food, cool atmosphere and concept if you dont mind cooking your own food on the grilltop table. We went as a birthday celebration for a party of 11 ordered a bottle of saki, the feast which feeds 8 and several appetizers. Total bill was under $400.00 and everyone left full and happy. Feast came with a delicious salad, edamame, gyoza, veggies, several options of beef and shrimp. I will certainly come again next time im in the area.

My boyfriend chose this place for Valentine’s Day because of my love for Japanese cuisine so I was super excited! I’ll start with the positives, the food was excellent but the overall experience was not. We were running late and made sure to call to ensure we would still be able to be seated, if not, we would have found another place. They said it was fine so we went. We were seated and from the moment the waitress walked over I could tell it would be a problem. We felt extremely rushed and like we weren’t wanted to there. I tried to ignore understanding today was busy and we were running late. I again asked the man who seated us if we should leave and go elsewhere since it was late and our waitress just seemed to have a bad attitude he said no and that it wasn’t too late and for us to sta
