We enjoyed Gyu-Kaku. You cook your own food (mostly). We had Harami Skirt Steak with Miso marinade, and asparagus.

The meats here we very bland and not very tasty. I wanted to enjoy the side dishes, however a lot of them ended up being disappointing. The fried garlic rice was very salty and the toro pork was sliced very thick. This review is a bit harsh because of the quality I am used to back home, perhaps it is good for the meat in Hawaii? The service here was exceptional. I really enjoyed the quick service and they constantly made sure we had our waters filled and our grills changed. Even though the food was not the best, the service made it less disappointing.

We had the 45 Premium All You Can Eat. Most of the side dishes(i.e.edameme, cabbage) were just okay. The meat selection is fairly wide and tasty. However the service can be a little slow and inattentive

Great food, and very good service on a busy Friday. Open table said they were out of reservations, but we called and they got us in with 30 minutes notice. -1 star for being 10$ more than the other locations on the island for the same menu tiers; if you can get to the other ones, saves quite a bit for a family.

Food is amazing and the servers were very attentive. We did the premium package and it was all worth it. The kids really enjoyed the beef tongue. The duck breast just melted in your mouth. There wasn't one item that we didn't savor. The matcha ice cream is to die for.

We went there our first time at a place like this. Service was really good great wait staff. The food was very very good. We had a great time here. The only downside is the ladies room is not cleaned and I went to put down the toilet seat and a leak behind it squirted me in the face I laughed though
The food itself was so delicious. What made the visit amazing was our server Polo, might be misspelling their name, but they took the time to explain to us the whole entire variety of options and kept checking in on us. Highly recommended if you want to grill your own meats, will be back for sure next visit!

If you want an authentic Japenese experience, this is it. They serve Yakiniku (Japanese BBQ) here where you cook steak, chicken, and more right at your table. You might be tempted to do one of the combos or all-you-can-eat, but it's a lot of food. We just did a steak, a chicken, an appetizer, and a drink and the price was under $60 for two. Bring a fan if you get hot. The grill is right in front of you in your table. It's a really fun place.

Great stop if you want meat, but don't want to go to a steakhouse. They have an all you can eat option. I opted to select our meats, since each plate is about 3.4 oz of meat. My partner and I shared 4 plates of meat and it was plenty for us!
was delicious. It's American Japanese cuisine.
