Gyu-kaku Japanese BBQ

Food was amazing as always doing the ayce premium! There were also 2 servers around 6pm so service was a little slower than normal but everything was amazing regardless! The cucumbers are indeed addicting and I normally hate cucumbers. The toro beef and new york steak were also mention worthy! Will definitely recommend for quality meats and good vibes.

Couldn’t thank Enrique enough! He made the experience there so much better and elevated. Super knowledgeable with the menu and walked us through every course of meat we had and how to grill it ourselves. Super attentive and also bilingual which helped host our friends that were with us. The food is amazing packed with savory and diverse options. It’s a blend of both Japanese and Korean bbq. Would definitely recommend coming here and you better be hungry since portions are generous.

The food is amazing!!! Trey and Emerson’s service is great! In my opinion, the spicy tuna volcano is really good and your food doesn’t take as long as some other places to come. In addition, it looks really comfortable, I love drawings on the wall (shout out to the artist) I would definitely recommend this place! 🫶

Just wow.. utterly mind-blowing. I'm basically royalty now that I've dined here. You'd swear LeBron James moonlights as a chef. The grub and vibe were pure magic. I'd prescribe this spot to anyone, and it's conveniently situated next to any event venue. Atlantic Station, you sneaky genius, you.

The service is great and the food is really tasty and good quality! I have eaten here on several occasions and always enjoy my experience and the food. We had Chania as our server today and she was really friendly and helpful whenever we had a question. Definitely recommend coming here! :)

We had the chef’s special. The food was wonderful. The service was amazing! Yuki was our server and he took great care of us and made sure any questions we had were answered. I do wish that they had some way to celebrate birthdays. That would have made my night a bit more special. However I left there full and satisfied, so don’t take the previous statement as a complaint! Haha..

Gil is best server we’ve had! so fast & patient & always checked on us! been here so many times but usually the server was so slow to take our order/the next meat. however Gyukaku is always our go-to when we crave for steak, we come at lease twice a month! the meat is always fresh & good appetizers&price! today we got the best served Gil, we came so late at 3pm & didn’t know that they’re closed at 4pm due to the weather but they still let us dine in with all you can eat & didn’t rush us at all even it’s almost their time to leave. shout out to Glenn the General Manager that is so nice & patient, he also helped to clean those tables & picked up dishes!

Yuki is a very responsible and passionate server. He made my entire dining experience incredibly pleasant. He made this dinner experience become a satisfying and enjoyable meal.

Ordered from UberEats so I sadly didn't get the shichirin grilling experience. That said, I had a delicious meal! It's SO hard to find anything [affordable] resembling actual gyudon around Atlanta, so if you're in the same boat and are planning on takeout/delivery, I strongly recommend the umakara beef rice bowl. (It doesn't include the authentic egg & ginger toppings, but that's okay!) My partner got the impossible beef rice bowl and liked it, although he wasn't impressed because the "beef" was crumbled. We were excited that they offered an alternative protein--I rarely get to eat Japanese food due to a lack of comparable veggie entrees for him--but we hope that they'll evolve towards meatless steak (a la Trader Joe's beefless bulgogi) so it's less of a consolation prize. (To be clear, I'm talking about ALL restaurants serving "beef" when I say "they." There are just too many good options these days to keep serving crumbles.) I did see that they have way more vegetarian options in-house than are offered for delivery, so we plan to check it out in person eventually!

Japanese take on Korean BBQ. Good food, but the concept feels sloppy. The service was A1! I have zero complaints, as each host was accommodating. It's just the order of things that come out, that threw off my entire dining experience. For starters, they bring sides to the table as "starters" to eat prior to the meats coming, but these sides go WITH the meat. The cheesy corn, salad, and rice are things you naturally eat with the cooked meats. We had these items for a long time before raw meats started coming, so by the time meats started arriving to our tables, the cheesy corn was gone. So we ended up spending extra for another order since it makes sense to eat with the meats (who just eats cheesy corn solo? It pairs with the rice / meat). I'm a huge KBBQ fan and used to only cold sides being presented before the meats. Warm sides come when meat comes. Trying not to hold it to the standard of traditional KBBQ, but just seemed weird. If I came back, I would just have them only have miso soup and calamari for the appetizers, and bring everything else at the same time as the first round of meat, or right before it. Outside of the order and timing of things coming out, the meat was delicious, the servers were great, and the ambiance was very lively and fun!

GyuKaku is Amazing! Great smiling hostess to check us in, friendly greeting, clean table, and amazing fast ordering with Yuki. We ate off the all-you-can-eat menu and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. The food quality was top notch, the atmosphere very enjoyable, and our server Yuki superb. Review would have been 5 stars, but as we were eating the restaurant started filling up and the staffing was too low to support the number of tables. Yuki was still very attentive but just had too many tables.

Food was great, service was good - ordered the value combo for 2! However, I wasn't expecting the whole experience to take as long as it did... The order sequence is an odd setup. Wish it all came out at once vs separate - there's so many sides that would complement the meat but it's a long wait between food drops. I will say the gluten free selection is great though and clearly labeled! They have gf marinades and dipping sauces as well as soups and salads - almost all meat is gf as well.

We reserved a table and were seated right away. We were a party of 6. The service was a little slow but our needs were met. The food was great. Their soups were delicious. We recommend the wings, of course the pork belly, and their fried chicken salad was delicious. Overall our first experience was good here, the only thing is that it was so pricey that I don't think we can visit here no more than once a year. I also wish that we had 2 grills for our party of 6. With the size of our grill- about 14-16in, it took some time for everyone to get their meat cooked and with the time limit they give you, it could have helped us if we had 2 grills on our table.

The wait time was unacceptable. Waited 30mins just for appetizers to come out, 1 hour wait for the meats to come out and only 3 came. WAITED AGAIN just to only get another 3 plates of meat, waited again and again while i see other tables getting more plates than us, it was so frustrating as we keep getting interrupted waiting so much for food to come out. Was not worth it. Manager should have stepped in to offer discount for the inconvenience but we still paid full price despite us not enjoying the meal for waiting too long to the point we didn't want to eat anymore.

Gyu Kaku never disappoints. The chicken Karage is my personal favorite and we love being able to cook our own foods! Compared to other Japanese or even korean bbq places, this space is always clean and managed well. The service is always helpful and they allow us the grace to order things we will for sure like without the pressure of trying things we might not like. Overall, we love it here!

The bbq was great. I also enjoyed the cocktail and the dessert (more of the tiramisu, less of the matcha).

I found myself in Atlanta for a conference and craving some Asian food. Decided to go with what I was familiar with and ordered delivery from Gyu-Kaku to my hotel. Order took about 45 minutes which is pretty standard and food was tasty and portion size was excellent. My entree came with a small salad and a small miso soup as well to make for a complete meal. I know Atlanta has an amazing Asian food scene but love having this consistent option when I travel to different cities! Of course the in-restaurant bbq experience is amazing but that's for another day.

Gyu-kaku offers a typical Japanese yakiniku experience. I've been to their units in Atlanta and Honolulu. While not at the level of the top-notch yakiniku restaurants you'll find in Japan, Gyu-kaku doesn't disappoint. Good quality cuts, nice variety, fairly priced, and attentive service.

First time dining at Guy-Kaku and had a really good time. First, customer service was outstanding. From the hostess who greeted us with a welcoming smile to our server who explained the process, suggested menu items, answered many questions and made sure we had everything we needed. (thanks Andrew!) We had a party of 6 and ordered the Feast, which was more than enough food for sharing. In fact, we were filling up long before the meats arrived. The food was very good, well actually most of it was delicious. The various textures and flavors satisfied everyone's palate. From the salad and spicy tofu chicken soup to the range of proteins we grilled at the table, it was very satisfying. I was a bit annoyed by the small size of the grill, especially for larger parties. That grill should be used for 4 patrons max. They should consider remodeling the tables to include a longer, narrow grill top that runs across the table to allow more items to be grilled at a time and for more people to participate in the grilling, which is part of the fun. The small grill makes the process slower than it could be for people who don't have hours to spend at dinner. Patrons could get out quicker and the restaurant could see more patrons. (Win win!) Overall I enjoyed it and would definitely return with a smaller party and a few hours to spend eating and enjoying the experience.

My friends and I came in with a reservation on a Sunday and were seated right away. We did the meat combo for 3 people, and enjoyed all of the offerings included! My favorite was the ribeye. Our server was friendly, but did not really explain how to use the bbq very much or check in often, but overall we had a nice time figuring it out!

Incredibly pleased with our visit! Chania and Glenn were both amazing servers. They were attentive, informative and super kind. We tried the chefs choice and it felt endless lol. The meats were tasty, apps included were pretty good and dessert was phenomenal . We tried the red bean cake with ice cream. The cherry on top is the little gift they gave out, a rose, treat bag and coupon for a future visit. Will def be back.

Awesome place! My kids had a blast! We were apprehensive about it being kid friendly, but it definitely was. Safe, and they had fun cooking their own meals. The servers were great. Knowledgeable and patient. For a Saturday in Atlantic station it was was pretty quiet. Great experience . Fresh food !

This is the only restaurant in Atlanta that I repeatedly come to. The food is exceptional and I always leave extremely satisfied. Yuki is my favorite server, he's very attentive and has a great attitude but I've definitely enjoyed service from all the others we have been sat with. The ambiance is a bit casual, despite this, I think it's a perfect date spot (make sure to sit on the same side of the booth ). I highly recommend trying the spicy addicting cucumber and the harami skirt steak! The bartender make great drinks too!! I love Gyu-Kaku!

Came back on Xmas day 2023 and was surprised by the amount of patrons here. Special only available for the holidays.

Y'all, the service here is slow, but the food is delicious! I normally order the Gyu-Combo, which gives you two proteins over a bed of rice, miso soup, and salad for $15. If you like spicy food, I highly recommend trying the shrimp with the Spicy Jalapeño Miso sauce; absolutely amazing! Just thinking about it is making me drool. During my last visit here, I tried their Takoyaki and Tonkotso Ramen - both were flavorful!

The food is good, it's so delicious. We ordered the hot stone rice meal and I ordered shrimp to grill as well. The service was good, the waiter was so friendly and asked my guest and I about our food and it spun into a conversation about our past travels in the year, which was fun! It wasn't intrusive or rude or too cumbersome and the waiter was kind of cute so he could ask me anything he wanted, lol. The ambiance was pretty cool, it was a good nightlife vibe. I like how it's dark, but not too dark in the restaurant and it is in a nice area. The parking is a bit too much, but parking at Target helped me.

TL;DR: Food and atmosphere were good, service not as much. Price for value of certain options are questionable, but this was my first time so I'm willing to give it another chance to earn more stars in the future. Made a reservation for three, about five days in advance to celebrate my graduation. Atmosphere: Low light ambiance, tables not crowded together, clean bathrooms, good size tables for small parties (didn't pay attention to the big tables). The nicest thing about this place was the smokeless grills. They have a fan underneath the grill that draws the smoke out and downwards which not only keeps the smoke out of your way from seeing and talking to your friends, but also makes the experience much quieter and relaxing than what I've experienced with the overhead exhaust systems you find at most Korean BBQ spots in town. How it works: We did the AYCE option last night. There is a 90 minute time limit from the moment they serve you your first meat dish. I forgot exactly how long after you start that they call last call. Anything left over at the end of the meal will be charged a la carte. If you do not like a certain dish, you can send it back before last call and it will not be charged to your bill. There are three options for AYCE, price per person: Premium($48), Ultimate($58), and Supreme($68) Each option includes all of the items from the cheaper option(s) Food: ~ Premium Menu ($48) The Miso Soup was a good side portion that helped refresh my stomach between rounds. Flavor was great and vegetables weren't cheap tasting. The New York Steak had good flavor. The Kalbi Chuck Rib was very tender. ~ Ultimate Menu ($58) The Filet Mignon and the Gyu Sushi weren't as tender as I had hoped. The Harami Skirt Steak was pretty tender and had a great marinade. The beef tongue was almost like beef brisket. ~ Supreme menu ($68) The quality of certain premium meats were satisfactory. My favorite was the prime kalbi short rib(limited to one round per person) and the duck breast. I personally think that these are the only two items that make the Supreme option worth it. The Fried Calamari was nice and crispy with a flavorful sauce and a lemon wedge for a little citric taste. In my opinion, the only difference between the prime short rib from this menu and the chuck rib from the Premium menu is that the prime is much thicker where as the chuck was almost as thin as beef brisket. As far as the flavor and tenderness, they were pretty similar. Service: We had one main waiter along with two others running food for our table. One of them was average but friendly, one of them seemed as though he would have rather been anywhere else, and our main waiter was very courteous. The manager also made time to visit our table to get our feedback on what was good and what they could improve on. They will tell you how long to cook each meat on each side. This is not accurate. Especially for the beef tongue. It is sliced very thin and will cook thoroughly in 10-15 seconds on each side. If you follow their instructions on 30-45 seconds on each side, it will burn/overcook. My advice, go with someone who knows how to cook their meat or ask the waiter to cook it for you. It took a long time for us to get our orders. We were concerned mainly because we had a time limit, but I believe our main waiter was very lax with that rule because of the wait time. It was not that busy at all and he even commented on how it had been pretty slow that evening so I don't know why it took so long to get our orders. When we brought up the wait, he told us that for some reason that he wasn't sure of, the kitchen staff was passing over his tables and serving other tables first. I don't blame him at all for this, but that is not an acceptable answer. I appreciate him for giving us more time to eat given the circumstances, but unfortunately the only difference between going out to eat and cooking at home for me is the service, so it is the most significant part of my reviews and the kitchen staff hurt that. Otherwise I would have given four stars overall.

A new fave K-BBQ for me in the A! I absolutely love Japanese and Korean BBQ , or any restaurant concept that requires me to cook my own food, lol. Sounds a bit silly but, I don't mind the DIY method at all. So when I was recently on the hunt for a spot to enjoy my birthday dinner, I knew it was a great opportunity to check out Gyu-Kaku. I'm a regular at Atlantic Station, as I live at the movies, so I love that Gyu-Kaku is in such a great location. With the ample garage parking available for guests of the plaza, it's always a breeze for me to get a great spot and head on up for dinner. Gyu-Kaku is a beautifully decorated restaurant with a long bar for those thirsty guests who are not visiting with cooking on their mind, and spacious tables for those who are. I'd recommend getting a reservation to ensure that your table will be ready for you, as even in the afternoon there are folks who have the same idea as you - enjoy some delicious Japanese BBQ, so don't get caught up in the wait. If you don't opt for a reservation, the Gyu-Kaku team is kind and efficient and will take your number to alert you when your table is ready. Easy peasy! The menu options are seemingly endless, offering a bit of something for everyone. Not in the mood to grill your meals? There are a number of entrees that don't require you to put in the work of cooking them yourself. But what's the fun in that?! For the DIY option, there are numerous AYCE tiers that range in price and guest count. Be sure to note that there are two different AYCE menus. The tables all come with a grill set in the middle so that you and those you may visit with may show off your chef skills, and throughout your meal, your server or a member of the team will come to offer a grill pan change. I've been back twice now and love the quality of the meats, the delicious veggies (the mushrooms are IT!) and the prices are great if you really take the time to enjoy multiple a la carte items. Can't wait to go back and enjoy playing Chef of my own table once again!

I've been a huge fan of Gyu-Kaku for years (before I even moved to atl). This location is no different. My fave is always the yaki shabby beef, umakara yaki, and bistro hanger but there are so many other great options! On my most recent occasion here my friend and I split the Value course. We were both super full and had to take boxes.

Let it be known that the food here is solid, but the price is not. MY EXPERIENCE: I came here with another person and we did the Meat Lover's for 2. The base cost is $85 but we did a $5 upgrade to get the kalbi. The preset menu came with a whole bunch of various items: salad, chicken karaage, miso soup, a bunch of different meats, and finishes with a smores kit. Our grill seemed slightly jank, as it initially had problems maintaining the flame, but our server was able to fix it. The food came out in a nice, spaced out manner. I like that they paced it and didn't just deliver everything at once. The meats were all marinated well, and even the thin sliced pork belly, which is usually my least favorite meat due to it's lack of flavor, was actually pretty good! Our server was attentive throughout, refilling our water and changing our grill plate. When the servers deliver the meats, they're good about explaining how much time each one needs to cook. A pro about this place is you won't leave with your clothes smelling like smoke! I enjoyed my experience here, but for the price, it's more worth it to go to a nice AYCE and be able to pay the same amount or less. I left comfortably full, but for the price, I was expecting to leave stuffed. MENU: What's neat about their menu is all the options - Whether you want AYCE, preset selections for 2, or sushi, there's a lot more options than I realized. SPACE: The inside is very spacious and clean. We made reservations, but ultimately they were not needed for dinner on a normal tuesday night. PARKING: The Atlantic Station parking garage offers free parking up to 2 hours. It's super spacious, feels safe, and you don't need to get validation or anything. Ultimately rating 3 stars because of how crazy the cost is

Sorely disappointed is an understatement. I'm shocked this lack of speed, attention and apathy occured for (1) lunch and (2) down South. Came for 12:30 reservation. 12:39p I gave my order 12:59p I hadn't received anything so I left and informed the hostess stand. When I saw the time to commute back to the hotel .... I came back with my work laptop. They said they have a party in the back. But it's 2 raw meats. 1 raw salmon. Rice. Soup. Salad no eggs no tomatoes. Seated and reordered. Got the drink and soup within 5m. They leave much to be desired I'll say but I've got points expiring.

So I'm a really big steak person so you really can't go wrong with a good cut of steak. I've done Brazilian steakhouses, I've done plenty of Korean barbecue spots, so this time it's going to be on Japanese barbecue. Everything was good, you pay for 2 hours basically, and they bring you all that you can handle. The menu is fairly extensive so you really get the pic from many cuts of steaks and poultry and seafood. I can't name all the things I tried, but I tried a whole lot. I think that my favorite was the marinated sirloin. They have a really good side selection, the spring rolls are really good. They'll like the grill up for you right in front of you and you're going to basically go ahead and go to town and cook your food to your liking. You ask for more, and I'll bring you more. Pretty standard formula. They have different plans or packages when it comes to ordering, I think that you can get one that has everything that's like 50 something dollars. So just be aware that you can get different tiers when it comes to food selection. It's in Atlantic station so it's easy to eat a lot and walk around, that's pretty cool I'm pretty clutch, I would definitely suggest trying it out. Especially during the lunch rush when it's not as crowded.

When I lived in NYC, we'd always go to Gyu-Kaku for their excellent happy hour deals ranging from $4-12 in food and drink options. I was happy there was a similar bar menu here in Atlanta. Great location in Atlantic Station and it's fairly easy to find. All staff are pretty friendly and it was easy to find a solo seat at the bar. I will say that the entire place feels a bit sticky to me. Maybe it was the menus. They can only be more appealing if they find a cleaning solution that rids the bar and menus of that sticky feeling. I didn't get any hotpot meals. I wanted something quick. I decided to order from the many app choices and a bowl of ramen. My food came out pretty quick. I had the gyoza which was standard. Nothing fancy. Then I had their pork ramen. Lots of meat and noodles and a big serving, which was comforting to see in a world where everywhere is downsizing portions yet raising prices. The booth had a heavy sesame oil flavor which I thought I wouldn't like but it was actually pretty amazing and not too salty. Overall, I'd say this chain offers up nostalgia. They do the simple things right! My entire bill with a drink came up to $30.

First time I had Gyu Kaku was in LA and loved it! When I found out they were opening one up in Atlanta, I was super excited. The meat quality is better than Korean BBQ, so we like coming here, but unfortunately, the meat quality in Atlanta doesnt seem as fresh as the other locations. The service is great, the hostess at the time we went was a little sassy, but hey I used to work for the food industry too so I totally get it, people can be mean. The interior is great and I love how they greet you traditionally in Japanese. Overall still a good place to eat! They dont validate parking by the way.

Very nice people but I ordered in the last hour before closing and the food I ordered was pretty bad. Maybe it's better if I order during normal hours but I'm not risking my money again.

Server Name : Joshua Very nice guy and helped suggest some things for us to try. Cooking your own food inside a restaurant can be cool sometimes. Glad we had an option. We got some things that they prepared and other things we cooked. Steak was Devine. Where can I get that marinade ? Do they sell it? Wish I had thought about this question yesterday. We cooked steak and shrimp. Spicy Ramen Beef was really good. Ohhh and the chicken. Yup. I'd return. Yup.

Always have a good time a Gyu. Great meal+drink deal at the bar. Josh. Austin. Jordan. They all take care you well. Check it out!

The food was good, but the overall experience could've been better. Location and Parking Gyu-Kaku is located in Atlantic Station. Parking is validated for the first 2 hours in the garage. Venue and Atmosphere The decor is sleek and sophisticated with hardwood and metal accents. A full bar is available, and grills are situated on every table to cook your own meat. The bathrooms are clean and spacious. Service The is where they lost 2 stars. Our waitstaff (one server and one in training) were very kind and knowledgable. However our food took a long time. We were seated for 30 minutes before receiving our drinks, and another 10 minutes before our appetizers. We were seated for an hour before we received any meat. Mind you, we were on a tight schedule because we had movie tickets that night. They normally have a 2 hour limit for the AYCE menu, but they suspended it because the kitchen was backed up and food was coming out extremely slow. Also, this restaurant requires you to cook your own food, most Asian BBQ restaurants' wait staff will cook the food for you. Food and Beverages The appetizers were tasty, and the meats were all well seasoned. We ordered beef bugolgi, spicy pork belly, spicy shrimp, and cajun beef. All were delicious and easy to cook. We also had an old fashioned and vodka strawberry lemonade. The drinks were prepared well. Verdict The food was tasty, but the slow service and do-it-yourself cooking make me not inclined to return. I'll be hoofing it to Duluth for my next Japanese BBQ craving.

Frozen spicy cucumbers was new, clearly transparent but almost solid frozen, no bueno. Soup arrived right before dessert, fire was so high most of the meat initially trying to be prepared was burned, waited forever my grill to be changed. Not complaining, I ate and paid this is for improvement purposes hopefully because I like their food but without appropriate service...it loses its appeal. May not return.

Emerson was a very helpful and knowledgeable server. We'd never been so he gave us guidance on how to order - Loved all his suggestions for dinner. Delicious ! Gonna come back with a big group

I will admit i had previously left a poor review but since then, Gyu has legitimately made a turnaround. If you've never been, Start with a bar visit. There's a 2 appetizers and a drink special for $15. For some perspective, most establishments want to make $13-$15 off of you as a customer per visit, so they have a $13 item as the cheapest thing you can order. I don't really need a $13 salad or $15 hamburger but Gyu has two apps and a drink for $15. It's really easy to spend $30 for 2 appetizers and a beer twice than that one expensive hamburger and leave. This place is amazing! And as an Asian American, i rarely get to order a Hennessy Shanghai in Atlanta, and the manager here actually knew what that was. Whatever happened here has been nothing short of amazing.

I love this place.i have been coming to this chain ever since I use to live in NY. I'm glad they opened one in Atlanta. I came here and a random Saturday and I was at the bar with Austin and Rich who were my bartenders and they made my experience a good time than what it usually is. They were attentive and made sure me and my friend have everything we need. They also made sure our food came out in a timely manner. Come check them out here at Atlantic station.

Had reservations here for Saturday at 10pm. They called around 8 and asked if we could come at 9:30 because last call is at 10. Luckily we were able to come 30 minutes early, but what if we weren't? Would they have cancelled or would they not have served us? It's curious as to why 10 is an option when it really isn't. Anyway, once we arrived we were seated right away. Service wasn't the best but again I realize there is a shortage out there. When our server came we ordered our drinks and food at the same time. It took forever for my cocktail to come, I actually got my soup, salad, edamame and chicken before the cocktail. It also took quite a while for our meat to come out for us to cook. The good thing is it's sliced so thinly, it doesn't take long to cook. It's such a cool concept. It gives you something to do at dinner bedsides just sitting there. I really enjoy the concept. The meat was a fair grade but they have several sauces to dip the meat in. We ordered a dinner for two which is a lot of food and about $80 which isn't too bad I don't think. As far as parking. It's located in Atlantic Station I think there may be free parking for up to 2 hours but we paid for front parking which is $8 and totally worth it.

There are much better K - Bbq places in the Georgia/ ATL area. Flavors are okay. The fried rice and steaks were the best things. Some of the wonton came out cold in the middle like they were frozen. Disappoint when you factor in how long it takes each batch of raw food to come out. The tongs also had left over rice in them when we sat down. Besides that this place really isn't spectacular.

I was very disappointed with the way I was treated at this establishment. The young lady with the blue/turquoise hair seemed to not understand how her seating chart was set up. My son and I asked for a table for sushi and to my surprise they do not serve sushi. Then it began to rain and I asked for a table for drinks and was told it would be a 10 minute wait after just being told we could sit at the bar. I expressed my concern and told the young lady she was acting like a real witch and asked for the manager. The manger said they did no tolerate curing but I explained I did not curse and after they just say someone I was very offended. I have never dinned here before but never will again. As I stood waiting for the rain to stop they sat other parties. My assumption that they discriminated on my son and I was true. And for that I will plead that anyone with a family not dine here.

Maybe I've been spoiled with the other Asian BBQ places that you can go to in Atlanta, but this is a skip for me. The location of this is nice as it's located in Midtown and other places are 20-40 mins from Midtown depending on where you're trying to go. Gyu-Kaku is in Atlantic Station which has 0-2 hours of free parking and Gyu-Kaku doesn't validate parking. On a Saturday night, we had a wait time of 1.5 hours which isn't too bad. We received a text when it was time for us and got seated promptly. We were looking to get one of the sets vs. a la carte and the waiter recommended the Chef's Favorite set over the Meat Lover's, so that's exactly what we did. We received the: - Miso Soup x2 - Beef Sukiyaki Bibimbap - Gyu-Sushi - Napa Kimchi - Gyu-Kaku Salad - Garlic Shio Cabbage - Prime Kalbi Short Rib - Harami Skirt Steak - Filet Mignon - Umakara Ribeye - Pork Belly - Shrimp Garlic - Broccoli w/ Cheese We also ordered 2x Lychee Gin Mojitos that were good! There wasn't too much lychee flavor which was disappointing, but it still tasted good. For the amount of food you receive, the quality of the food just doesn't match the price, but I guess that's the price you pay for location. Miso Soup is standard. I really liked the Beef Sukiyaki Bibimbap and it was tasty. The Gyu-Sushi was odd as the steak was cold and the rice was piping hot? Kimchi and Salad were standard. The meat quality was meh. These portions were quite small, but unlike other BBQ places these meats were cut to be almost bite size pieces so you didn't have to cut the meat yourself after cooking. All very standard. The Prime Kalbi Short Rib and Harami Skirt Steak were good. The Umakara Ribeye we got wasn't though. As we only got 4 pieces, 2 pieces we got were sooo chewy and gristley, I had to spit them out. That's already half the plate. We were wrapping up our meal when I looked back at the menu and we didn't receive the Garlic Shio Cabbage or the Broccoli w/ Cheese. I told the waiter it was fine to get these item to-go as we were already done and I wanted to be sure I got everything we were paying for. Another waitress brought out these items in a to-go bag and I asked her if that was the cabbage dish and broccoli with cheese and she confirmed. I get home and cabbage dish was in the bag and just a container of cheese with no broccoli in sight? You win some and you lose some, but still a bit disappointing. For a total of $137 after tax and tip for two people, I would much rather go to any AYCE BBQ place and eat to my heart's desire with higher quality meats.

Food was ok. Service was slow and seemed uninterested. It took an excessive amount of time to get a server's attention.

I enjoy Gyu-Kaku a lot and when living in California it was a frequent with the family. This is our first experience not in California and had a pretty disappointing experience. The service was pretty bad and felt like they did not know their menu. Friendly, but did not do a good job of getting us drinks and ordering things correctly and timely. We came in and we're one of the only tables so am confused why this occurred. Then it felt like the quality of the food was lacking. To start things off the meat was not always the color on a few items or looked like it was just thrown in a bowl quickly which caught me off guard. Kimchi tasted bad so did the garlic Shio Cabbage The garlic noodles were great and so was the hanger steak and Yaki beef, but honestly with things so rough and being pricey for a lot of people don't believe I will return to this location. I really felt like it's not the level of quality I was use to.

My first time visiting and eating here and I really enjoyed myself. My date and I only waited about 10 minutes to be seated and our sever quickly came over to answer questions. The drinks we had were okay, nothing special. We weren't able to eat the salad since the dressing had a weird taste. But the meats we selected and the side of vegetables were great. I love how the sever explained how long to cook each meat and constantly checked on us. Overall, we had a great night and will be back again.

Yuki has served us multiple times we've been at the restaurant and he's always been a pleasure to work with! Deff recommend and it's always great food each time, 5 star for sure!

Amazing staff, awesome food, will definitely be going back. Great for date night and super fun for a double date!

Great food and service had a blast. We are here for a chill dinner. food was fantastic, super fun to cook.

My family loves Gyu Kaku! We've been to multiple locations several times and always have a great time. The bistro hanger steak is our favorite meat and the sides of cabbage, cucumbers, mushrooms, kimchi, and edamame are all great as well. Our server Yuki was terrific!

Our food was great and Yuki was amazing! We came for a family bday dinner and he was extremely attentive!

You should get the combo instead of the all you can eat because it a lot of food. Meat is good quality
