This place is pretty damn good. I love the interactive nature of the cooking and their variety of sides and apps that come with the meals are great. Lots of food for three, all for under $100. I was starving going in and I was stuffed coming out.

Japanese Barbecue, I had not really thought of that food genre until I very innocently decided to have a meal at Gyu-Kaku Japanese BBQ in Denver. Why not, you ask? Well, I don’t really think of Japanese barbecue considering there’,s so much American barbecue around. But my first impression with this wonderful genre was quite good.

Great first time trying Japanese BBQ!! We did the $45 all you can eat on Wednesday. Food was delicious! My only feedback is service could of been better, waters were always empty even when the servers said they would be back with more water. The server mentioned they were under staffed so I totally understand which is why I am not leaving any stars off from this 5 star review. Staff is not something that can always be controlled in these times of covid era.

Came here for a special bday celebration. I was wholly disappointed in the condition of the restaurant, cleanliness and service. After waiting 20” for someone to come to our table, Our grill was barely warm. We had to ask three times to turn the heat up and then near the end of dinner had to move to a new table. The place needs a serious deep clean and updates (tables in bad shape, walls with lots of chipped paint). There were boxes stacked up on tables, broken chairs near us. Our server did the best that she could as they seemed poorly staffed. Despite all of this, the food was delicious. Once we had a functioning grill, it was a great experience. We will come back, but may try a different Denver location.

An extremely underwhelming and disappointing visit. This place feels like they are trying to make everything slow to not give you any food. We paid $120 between us for the AYCE ($60 a person). Our waitress showed up one time in nearly 35 minutes. Our sake took a legit 45 minutes to show up. Our table wasn’t bussed in 40 minutes. We asked for rice 3 times over an hour + period and never got it. And all the food took forever to come out. If you charge high end prices, you should provide high end service. hate giving bad reviews but please save yourself a visit and support local!
