Gyu-Kaku Japanese BBQ

Great service and I will be back.

I’ve been to many Gyu-Kaku locations both in and outside of NYC, but this was by far the worst one. I now understand why it wasn’t busy, even in such a highly Asian neighborhood. All the meats were tough, extremely thin, old, and had a strange texture, like they’d been frozen for too long and thawed too quickly. Out of the nine or so types of meat we ordered, maybe one or two were edible; the rest were just bad.

The service could’ve been ok, but the server who brought our meats (different from the one who took our order) kept throwing the dishes onto the table. He wasn’t overtly rude, but he literally threw every single dish down. The rice was also dry, hard, and tasted old. It tasted like it hadn’t been cooked with enough water.

Overall, I would never go back. If you care about your money and want a decent dining experience, I strongly suggest going elsewhere.

Went here for an early dinner with my friend, and everything was perfect! Food was awesome! Our server, Elly, was super helpful, knowledgeable, and sweet. She made sure we had everything we needed. Would definitely come back!

We had a great experience last night! Our waitress, Elley, was amazing. Friendly, attentive and made sure we always had what we needed. She explained the menu clearly and checked on us often without being intrusive. We did the meat variety and it was so good! We've also visited the Flushing location before and this experience was just as great. Excellent service that made our

dinner even better!

Had an amazing time at Gyu-Kaku Long Island City! The food was incredible — every cut of meat was fresh and flavorful, and grilling right at the table made it such a fun and interactive experience. The garlic noodles, wagyu, and Prime kalbi were definite standouts!

The service was top-notch from start to finish. A big shoutout to Dennis, the manager, who went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect. He was so friendly, welcoming, and really made us feel taken care of — you can tell he genuinely cares about his guests’ experience.

The restaurant itself has a great vibe — clean, modern, and lively without being too loud. Perfect spot for date night, group gatherings, or just a night out with friends. Highly recommend and will definitely be back!

You guys should really deal with screaming children, at least put them in a different section😓 we are seated between two little adorable screaming babies and we can not digest at all, that scream can took years off my lifespan, for real.😨

I love Gyu-Kaku but not this location yet. Food is average but very disappointing cocktails! I ordered strawberry mojito but there was no mint at all.…what’s the point of mojito then?

Get the rooftop terrace! Such a nice vibe and very clean space!
