Hands down, one of the best dinners I've had in a while! Gyu-Kaku in Mililani truly knows how to impress with their all-you-can-eat deal for $67. Let me tell you, it was worth every penny! First off, let's talk about those garlic noodles. Absolute perfection! The flavors melded together so beautifully, it was like a symphony in my mouth. If you're a garlic lover like me, these noodles are a must-try. Now, onto the stars of the show - the meats. We indulged in the bistro steak and the HARAMI steak, and let me tell you, they did not disappoint. The bistro steak was cooked to perfection, tender and juicy with just the right amount of seasoning. But oh, the HARAMI steak stole the show! Tender, flavorful, and simply irresistible. I can understand why it's a favorite among regulars. I'll definitely be coming back for more of that HARAMI goodness! But the experience wouldn't have been complete without mentioning our stellar server, Isabella. She was on top of her game from start to finish, providing top-notch service with a smile. One of the best servers we've encountered at Gyu-Kaku, hands down! Overall, Gyu-Kaku in Mililani exceeded all expectations. Delicious food, excellent service, and a cozy ambiance - what more could you ask for? Whether you're a first-timer or a regular, this place is a must-visit. Can't wait to come back for another round of gastronomic delight!

Party of 5 on a Friday for early dinner. Parking lot is small, had to drive around in circles for a bit and finally got a spot. We were seated as soon as we got in. Yay!!! With little kids joining us for dinner, waiting is not fun. We were too early for happy hour. Ordered quite a bit of food: harami steak, rosu, beef toro, beef bibimbap, tonkotsu ramen, garlic fries, volcano tuna, chicken karaage, smores, vanilla ice cream and kirin beers. They don't have the mochi to grill anymore. It's been a long long time since we visited. For some reason the meat to cook came last. The kiddies were really happy with the harami steaks and chicken karaage, fried just right and crispy. And they enjoyed the smores, happily toasting the marshmallows. Our server was really awesome and treated the kids really well. Kiddies want to come back again and hopefully we can order other meats to try.

They made us wait 45 minutes to an hour to get served, yet there were only 2 tables which already had their food when we came in and they served this one 2 top table that arrived a few minutes after us. Very rude server.

My friend and I came on a random weekday around 6:00pm for an early-ish dinner. We were greeted promptly and seated right away. The food came out quickly and our server came by often to see if we needed anything else. My personal favorites were: harami skirt, taro beef, and maybe it was the chuck rib? The green tea ice cream is also amazing! I go to a few other Gyu-Kaku's on the mainland, and I would say this location meets the usual standard! The service was great, the restaurant was cute and clean, and the food was good.

The hubby, kids, and I came in for brunch this past Monday, which was President's Day. There were a steady stream of patrons coming in and out while we were there. Our waitress was friendly but a little forgetful. We asked for several items that were forgotten about. Nevertheless the food we did get came out quick. The sukiyaki bim bim bap isn't what it use to be. You have to pay extra for an egg to be added and there is barely any meat. Mostly just a bunch of onions. There really wasn't much flavor at all. The steak had no seasoning but was good quality. We left full so that was the main thing. We will probably be back since we enjoy the family time and quality of food.

The food was delicious. I've been here 3 times now.They have an all you can eat menus with different price ranges. I believe it starts at $45 a person and goes up. Each level, you get more food options. But you have 90 minutes to complete it. The cocktails and ice cream were delicious, and if you need help with cooking, you can ask your waiter for tips.Parking: They have a parking lot but it is shared with other stores.

We got there around 3:05pm, and we waited several minutes before a waiter showed up. After we were seated, we ordered the famous all you can eat lunch. But the waiter tried to upsell, claiming the lunch of $27 will only give us 30 minutes to eat. Instead He recommended we take the $45 premium lunch. But on the lunch menu and their website, it says 70 minutes lunch time for the $27 all you can eat lunch. And lunch menu works until 4pm. We decided to leave because of the unfair treatment. The owner and the waiter should ask themselves a question-are they treating white customers the same way? i seriously doubt it. Honestly I felt we were discriminated at this place.
First time at this location, on a Tuesday, we didn't get sit down for 10 mins when There's No wait. Tried to order the holiday Set menu from this location's website But the waitress Did Not know it existed lol... Its been on their website for over a month. For a table of 6 we only got 4 sets of utensils. Table was very greasy, and waitress cleaned with a very big spray bottle that splashed all over the plates and grills and our faces lol... We tried to order Old fashioned and they ran out of bitters... Things took forever to come. Meat was decent like all the other locations. The Icecreams tasted Very very Old... As a long time Gyukaku goer, Very disappointed at this location.

First time here. Loved the food, and the staff was friendly. You have to cook your meats if you choose from that menu, but there are prepared plates too. Great experience especially if you go with the right people!Parking: It's located on a strip mall plenty of parkingKid-friendliness: They have booster seats. My 5 year old tried the rice mixed with the teriyaki chicken and loved it.

We got the lunch special. I like that the meat portions aren't too large so you can try more things. Staff has always been attentive and friendly.Wheelchair accessibility: Enough space to get a wheelchair or walker through.
