Soooo glad I tried this place for the first time during seattle restaurant week. A plate of different cuts of beef, pork jowl, kimchi, ishoni rice, miso, and a sorbet at the end. Even the pumpkin on the beef plate was good lol. And of course the quality of the meat was all top notch, from the marbled wagyu to the tongue to the pork it was all so fresh and clean and juicy. And it was a great portion for 2 people too. I like that the grill is over an open flame and we definitey got better at cooking as we made our way (slowly) through all the food. The SRW deal was definitely both quality and value. This is definitely somewhere I'd take someone visiting from out of town looking for quality bbq...
Gyu Kaku is better in terms of selection and in general a larger menu. There is a limited of choices for non alcoholic drinks.Street parking is paid until 10pm. Since it is caphill, prepare to spend 15 minutes to find one that might require 10 minutes of walking.The clam soup is a 2.75/3 . The flavor reminds me of bottle clam juice.Takoyaki is crispy and soft on the inside. 3.5/5Gyoza is 3.5/5. The skin is crispy but not juicy or flavorful.Wagyu is where is at!The beef combo feeds 2 or 1 person if that's all you get.The service is lacking. You have to hunt them down. On a weekday the restaurant was less than 35% full.
This is a great spot for Japanese barbecue! It is definitely a bit on the pricey end the meat is very high quality and absolutely delicious. Service was mostly great, they kept our waters topped off constantly, but were a little slow to tend to both sides of our table (we had a group of 8. The grills themselves were nice they kept the smell of the meat fairly muted. Usually when I leave barbecue, I reek do meat, but this time I was glad that I didn't!
To add to that, my utensils were sticky, and when I asked for new ones, they just tossed them onto my table without a word and walked away. There was no effort made to ensure a positive experience. The air conditioning wasn’t strong enough either. I won’t be returning, and if you're looking for authentic yakiniku, this isn't the place to go.

The beef combo is excellent! We also ordered an appetizer and beef tongue, but it was a bit too much for just the two of us. I have to say my favorite was definitely the yam! The staff were nice and friendly; they even gave us a fried cake to celebrate my birthday, which was such a lovely gesture!
Really great quality food!!!The combo beef plate was amazing and we also ordered the clam soup and thick beef tongue to share. The staff was very nice and the restaurant was clean and bright. Overall a wonderful experience and I’ll definitely come back again.
A bit overpriced but the meat quality was decent, overall still a good place to go. Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 4 Price per person: $80–90
Great experience for me! Fresh meat and very good tastes! Highly recommend!
