β€œGyu-Kaku Japanese BBQ is one of my favorite places to go. We came here with my mom and my fiance. My mom lives in LIC, and this location is literally across the street from her place, so we decided to try it instead of going to Flushing, where we usually go. The food was good and still very enjoyable. That said, the vibe here feels a bit different compared to the Flushing location--maybe it's newer, or it just hasn't fully settled yet. Overall, a solid spot with good food and a convenient location. I'd definitely come back, especially being so close by.”

β€œWe cannot say enough amazing things about our waitress, Sai (please forgive us if we're spelling her name wrong). We've been lucky enough to have her twice, and both experiences were outstanding. She is incredibly attentive, friendly, and truly goes above and beyond to make sure every part of the meal is perfect. Her customer service alone is a reason for us to keep coming back. We're also so grateful for the LIC location--it's much more convenient for us than the Flushing one, and it's become our go-to spot. Every visit has been 100% worth it, from the quality of the food to the excellent service. The food is consistently delicious, the staff is welcoming and professional, and the atmosphere is warm, cozy, and perfect for enjoying a great meal. We will absolutely be returning many more times and highly recommend this location to anyone considering a visit!”

β€œSatisfies our bbq cravings, glad this opened in LIC. Great if you don't mind cooking the meat yourself. Although I would say, ordering from their cooked dishes on the menu are also still very good if you don't want to grill yourself”
