GYU-KAKU
This is a real Japanese BBQ experience, a perfect choice for first dates, families, and for catching up with friends. At Gyu-Kaku everyone becomes an expert cook thanks to the personal grill installed at every table. Go here and share premium cooked meats over a flaming charcoal grill, while sipping on Japanese sake, or a frosty cold beer.

The best place for Japanese BBQ! I love this location, although it can get pretty crowded on the weekends, the service is great here and there's free parking in the back. We used to go to the Pasadena location a lot, sometimes Sherman oaks. But this is our favorite spot. I love all the great happy hour deals after 8:30 and their holiday specials are a great value. We love getting a huge Asahi or Sapporo pitcher for the table during happy hour. For appetizers you gotta get the spicy cucumber and the spicy tuna volcano crispy rice. For BBQ the ultimate juiciest meat is the harami secret pot, it's a slab they'll give you scissors to cut it with but omg. I would only order that if it was up to me haha. The yaki-shabu beef is also really good if you like thinly sliced meat that cooks quick. I'm also a huge fan of the garlic noodles and bibimbap rice! Full Review
This place is as good as it gets!
I love a good Korean BBQ place - and this one really takes the cake.
Pro Tip: Avoid coming here on weekends or holidays; because this place gets PACKED. Come on a week day and avoid the long lines. This place is popular and rightfully so!
It's hard to give a review to a place that has it all. Sooooo many amazing options here - chicken, steak, ham, and everything. I especially enjoy their s'mores dessert option.
Friendly Staff! Also, this is a great place to go with friends! The more the merrier! Full Review
