I found this restaurant after seeing the good reviews online. I can say that I was very disappointed. I had nausea and diarrhea after eating at the restaurant. The food was not fresh. The beef was of low quality. It was frozen meat that had not been thawed before it was served. The rice was also not fresh. It was really terrible to have diarrhea and nausea while traveling.

Everything was fantastic except the cost. We used to go there in 2012 3-4 times and paid US$55-65. We ordered almost the same including sake and this time it was US$115...

We recently had the pleasure of dining at Gyu-Kaku Japanese BBQ in Waikiki, Honolulu, and it was an unforgettable experience! From the moment we arrived, the service was exceptional—the staff were friendly, welcoming, and made sure our evening was both fun and seamless.

The interactive aspect of cooking our own food right at the table added an exciting and engaging touch to the meal. The variety of meats and marinades was fantastic, each one bursting with flavor and quality that exceeded expectations. The servers were attentive and knowledgeable, providing helpful recommendations and ensuring that everything was cooked to perfection.

Whether you’re a first-timer or a BBQ enthusiast, this place offers an amazing and unique dining experience. The atmosphere was lively yet relaxed, perfect for both friends and family gatherings. I can’t wait to come back for another memorable meal! Highly recommend Gyu-Kaku for anyone visiting Waikiki.

Gyu-Kaku BBQ in Oahu is such a fun spot, especially if you’re into grilling your own food right at the table. It can get a little pricey, but the experience and the quality of the marinated meats make it worth it. It’s a great place to go with friends or family, and the whole vibe is casual and lively. Plus, if you time it right during happy hour, you can get some good deals and make the meal a bit easier on the wallet.

Food was excellent, I wouldn’t order cocktails again though, stick to beer and sake and you’re set!

Pricey but delicious, you cook your food at your table. The shrimp and thinly-sliced pork were our favorites of the evening.

Do not get ramen. It’s basically Mr noodle. I’m sure the bbq is good.
