    I had dinner today. Food was great and service was good. Not too pricey for the quantity of meat they served. The place itself is outdated, the benches were ripped an could use some upholstery. Parking could be an issue we are just lucky cuz my husband has access to parking as he works in one of the offices near Gyu-Kaku

    We had a good time barbequing our own meat — it was a fun experience, especially for teens. However, there are several areas that need improvement. The bathroom was in very poor condition, with a sink that was absolutely filthy. The restaurant itself felt quite run down, with old, torn seats that were uncomfortable and uninviting. Ventilation was also lacking — we left smelling like a campfire, which hasn’t happened at other BBQ spots. One of the items we ordered (hot sauce) never arrived, though it was on the bill. It was also disappointing that my daughter’s birthday, which we mentioned in the reservation, wasn’t really acknowledged . Overall, it was an okay experience, but it feels like the management isn’t addressing ongoing issues that have been raised before.

    Went to celebrate my friends birthday, everything was great, food was great, it was a bit loud from the other table. However towards the end the waitress had asked for more money for tips. It all made us feel uncomfortable.
