Founded in Tokyo in 1996, Gyu-Kaku has become the world’s #1 Japanese BBQ brand! Thanks to our devoted fans we have reached over 700 locations worldwide. Each day, hundreds of thousands of people gather around the table-top smokeless grill, a centerpiece of our dining concept, enjoying selections of premium meats, just off the grill, and other freshly prepared foods from our kitchens, inspiring laughter, conversation, and a magical dining experience.

Our authentic yakiniku (grilled barbeque) dining experience crowns you the chef. Share a variety of delicious appetizers and premium cooked meats over a flaming grill, paired with Japanese sake, frosty cold beers, or other alcoholic and non-alcoholic options of your choice. We're the perfect spot to enjoy time with friends and family, organize an office party, or to spend quality time with your significant other!

Before you go, don't forget to taste our best-seller Harami Skirt Steak or Prime Kalbi Short Rib among other must-try dishes!

    The place was quite empty when we got there, but it took forever for someone to come and serve us. They kept reminding us how long we still had (there’s a time limit for AYCE), but they took forever to come to check in with us. Even when we spoke up and said,”excuse me?”, nobody came to us…. After a min, there’s a lady came and said,”I’m not your server”………

    We are definitely fans of this place. The meats are marinated so well and are delicious. My 10-yr-old daughter loves being able to cook the food for everyone at the table; it’s a nice little confidence-booster. Every time we go, she plans reasons to come back.
