I stopped by at this location for the second time today and so far both times have been great. I initially came in on Valentine’s Day. I really enjoyed my experience on a busy day so I made another reservation to come back.
I seated right away on both occasions.

On both occasions, I believe my server was JT who multitasks; bringing out food, cleaning up and taking my order. Despite that, he made a clear effort to be attentive but also friendly. He provided exceptional customer service.

Overall, I recommend. I will definitely be coming back as the protein is fresh and appetizers are delicious!

Absolutely love this place! I’ve always wanted to visit, and the service and food were great. Kudos to the hostess, Chrissy, who was so welcoming and answered all the questions I had. Despite the crowd at the front, she responded to all customers well and was able to sit us down in just a few minutes, and later even assisted us with the grill! Our server, Clothea, was also excellent! She helped us decide what dishes to order and gave us great recommendations. The spicy tuna volcano and spicy beef bibimbap were great. I also really enjoyed the Kalbi Chuck Rib. Throughout our meal, both made a point to check on my friends and me to see if everything was going well. Thank you, Clothea and Chrissy, I will be back soon!!

My boyfriend and I came on a Sunday night and soon as we walked in, there were a lot of people waiting, but because we had a reservation, we were able to be seated quickly. They got my girl Chrissy manning the front by herself, but she held it down!! We saw some people being a bit passive aggressive towards her, but she kept her calm and still offered them a smile.

Our server, Nam, also offered great service. Since it was our first time, he was patient with walking us through the menu and different options. Thanks to the two of them, we look forward to coming back!

This spot is my all-time favorite for yakiniku! Worth every penny I spent — the quality of the beef is consistently amazing. My favorite part is definitely the beef tongue, tender and full of flavor when grilled just right. The menu has a great variety, and the whole experience of grilling at the table makes it even more enjoyable. Whether it’s a casual dinner or special night out, this place never disappoints. A must-visit if you’re a fan of Japanese BBQ!

This is a great place, great food and great fun! This is a place for meat lovers. You actually cook your own food on the grill in the middle of the table similar to Korean bbq.The meats are premium including beef, pork, and seafood.Service was great, and food came fast.

I reserved tables for 25 the day before and the process wasnt necessarily difficult. We had a semi private space with 5 tables and nice atmosphere. The service was amazing and the food was quick to arrive. My table of 6 ordered the largest combo and it was fulling and worth it. It came with a variety of meat, appetizers, and soup. We were also able to roast out marshmallows at the end and make smores 🙂 would come here again!

Excellent family atmosphere. The food was delicious. The service from the staff was attentive and always reaching out in case you needed anything. It’s a romantic atmosphere. It was my first time trying Japanese BBQ so I didn’t try much variety. For a reasonable price I ended up satisfied.
It is ideal to go with children because they have baby chairs, they also have a children’s menu. That’s really excellent.
P.S., I wish I had gone to happy hour where the prices are a little cheaper xD

It’s super delicious. My friends bought me the lunch. We went during the nyc restaurant week. $45 package including all items of appetizers, 1 set of main course, 1 item of vegetables, 1 desserts. Each main course has 3 plates of protein or seafood depending on your choice. 1 bowl of rice. We also ordered a bottle of sake for sharing. The waitress served us was so nice. She was so busy, but her attitude was so good. I have a lot of respect for her. The BBQ place don’t make your clothes smell after eating. They change the grill rack twice for us, very nice. Cannot express enough how content we are about the experience. BTW you could use all your member deals at once.

The Gyu-Kaku Japanese BBQ restaurant is an amazing Japanese restaurant that offers guests incredibly delicious Japanese cuisine, and a delightful dining experience where the guests themselves partake in cooking and preparing premium cooked meats over a smoking grill located at their table.

In May of 2025, I brought and treated myself and my wife for dinner at the Gyu Kaku Japanese BBQ, specifically the branch based in the East Village Manhattan, to celebrate our Happy Eleven Year Relationship Anniversary!!!

Both my wife and I were graciously welcomed by the restaurant’s staff and were quickly provided with a very comfortable dining table.

Our server, Tan was incredible. She was very kind, welcoming and very attentive. She did a great job on explaining the menu options, addressing our inquiries and perfectly documented our meal orders. Tan also made sure to routinely check on us to see if we were enjoying our meals, and making sure our needs were met. We thank Tan for her superb hospitality and would love for Gyu-Kaku to recognize her outstanding professionalism!!!

In addition to the great service, both Kat & I thoroughly enjoyed our meals. I ordered the “Meat Lover’s” package for the both of us when dining at Gyu-Kaku. The “Meat Lover’s package is meant for 2 guests and comes with a considerable number of dishes, ranging from starters; salad, miso soup, sushi, chicken karate, and BBQ items; New York steak; Umakara ribeye, toro beef, sirloin steak and an a array of other dishes. In addition you get 2 s’mores for dessert.

Both my wife enjoyed steaming our seasoned BBQ items over the grill and found our meal to be very delicious from beginning to end. We found our meat dishes to be perfectly seasoned, very tasty and satisfying, and our grill cooked it perfectly!!!

My wife and I thank Gyu-Kaku for helping to celebrate our Happy Relationship Anniversary and recommend for everyone to visit and dine at this wonderful Japanese restaurant!!!
