    The food and service at Succotash were excellent. The waitstaff went above and beyond to accommodate a guest with special needs. The food was delicious and beautifully presented. Also, despite the restaurant being very full and busy, the acoustics were unusually great! You can actually hear conversation and not have to scream over loud music and other people. 5 stars. We will be back!

    Gyu-Kaku is a fantastic spot for Japanese BBQ with a fun, interactive dining experience. The quality of the meats and fresh ingredients is top-notch, and the variety of marinades, like miso and sweet soy, is irresistible. Grilling your own food at the table adds a personal touch, and the staff is always friendly and helpful. Highlights include the spicy pork belly and garlic shrimp, and the s’mores dessert is a fun way to end the meal. Great food, excellent service, and a lively atmosphere make Gyu-Kaku perfect for any occasion!
