Top tags:

Gyu-Kaku, meaning "Horn of the Bull" in Japanese, provides the authentic Japanese yakiniku (grilled barbecue) dining experience where customers share premium cooked meats over a flaming charcoal grill, while sipping on Japanese sake, shochu, and frosty cold beers. Gyu-Kaku offers a wide range of meats including the best-seller Harami Skirt Steak in Miso Marinade and Certified Angus Kalbi Short Rib in Tare Sweet Soy Marinade.

There are over 700 Gyu-Kaku restaurants worldwide, and the first U.S. location opened in West Los Angeles in 2001. Our Award Winning Restaurant was awarded the Hot Concept Award in 2007 and the demand keeps growing! Our fun and exciting experience allows for everyone to enjoy barbecuing at their table. The best part? Our Smokeless Roaster. With our down draft system, the smoke is sucked into the bottom of the table and away from guests!

It was a great experience and the food was amazing. We went for restaurant week and the portions were just perfect! We may have gotten a new server because we had to ask for things a few times and was left waiting. But I don't think he represents the service all around there. Definitely would recommend to everyone!

Great experience! Our server was excellent. The only issue was we had to wait 20 minutes to be acknowledged for our reservation. I understand there is a staffing crisis, but moving forward it may be helpful to have someone greet customers and notify them that someone will be with them as soon as possible.

I love the concept. Cook your own food but the price does not match the quality or quantity. I went during restaurant week and this was my first time dining at this establishment. Service was slow and our waitress never came to ask if we needed a refill or came to assist us since this was our first time. Not sure how busy they were since everyone cooks their own food but the service needs improvement. For the amount paid and the amount of food does not justify the price. Also no vegetables included so there was an up charge to add vegetables. The concept is nice and is a nice dinner date idea but I wouldn’t revisit.

When my reservation says 7pm and I get there at 7pm and you say you don’t have a table it’s not a good way to start. And when this happens you should offer something to drink and apologize. Very poor way of running a restaurant. I did get my table at almost 730 (30 minutes late). Took 10 minutes for a server to acknowledge me or come to my table. Once I got my food, I thought it was all good and enjoyed my meal. It would have been an overall good experience if it hadn't been for the 40 minute delay noted above. Oh, and one more thing. A guy sitting at a table about 3 away from me had his butt crack hanging out and It did make for some excellent photo ops during my meal. Perhaps next time I’ll get the BROWN rice instead of the white.

My experience was not the best, I was sitting next to the door and it’s literally freezing outside and I begged and begged to be moved and they said I couldn’t because me and my boyfriend were only a 2 top table. We had a reservation and everything. My server was barely active with us either, and took a while to get ANYTHING. We sat with empty waters for over 15 minutes. Our server didn’t really bring us anything she said her boyfriend would be helping us as well. It’s not like I am a bad tipper because I used to serve and now how it is but she probably assumed that. I do not recommend this place at all.

This was a great interactive experience! We did the Premium Holiday experience at $95/2 ppl but found it well worth the money. The food was excellent- meats tender and tasty. And you could cook it in the order you wanted, to the degree of doneness you prefer. We added an app of fried dumplings which were also delicious. The service and ambiance were terrific too. We’ll definitely go back there!

We stopped in prior to football game. Parking was easy, albeit a little confusing. Service was good. Food was prompt. Taste was good. Portion size was a little small, maybe could benefit from an additional piece of meat or two on the plate. Cooking surface was excellent. Check came in a timely fashion.

Was excited about this place because my husband and I have spent a lot of time in Japan and enjoy this style of Food and eating. Food was good. But it is a terrible service model and very unfriendly. They don’t explain the ordering process instead you are told “you have 90 minutes, whatever you don’t finish you are charged for”. What?! It’s a bad way of saying “only order what you think you can eat” and please don’t linger”. 4 at the table and did the dinner for 4. They brought one mini salad when we ordered salad and two shrimp when we ordered shrimp. I think if you go back many times and understand the way they operate you could enjoy it more.

Went for our anniversary. Took our kids who are 11 and 9. They loved cooking at the table. Best value is probably the all you can eat Premium package, especially with kids because they are half off. Give you the full variety of the menu. All in, dinner was about 1.5-2 hours of experience.

Not Good at all my wife got so frustrated from the server that she asked me for the first time in 23 years to “ let’s just go somewhere else “ so we did. We had a 6:45 reservation I dropped my wife off in front of the the restaurant and I went to park the car by the time I got back my wife was already seated “Great” I sat down stared looking at the menu and the waitress showed up explaining the menu on how it works, too many rules and way too many restrictions for $90 a head 90 minutes max stay and you can order 2 items at a time 1 appetizer & 1 1 meat selection “what” we came to eat not beg to be served not for $90 a head. We ended up not far from that location at let’s Meat much better value and great tentative staff.
