Gyu-Kaku Japanese BBQ Dining

Pretty cool place, I love the building. It's kind of hard to find if you were just driving around--we were actually going to In n Out Burger and happened to drive through this parking lot and saw the sign and decided to try it out. Definitely would have eaten here sooner if we'd known about it. The portions are small, but in reality they are sufficient so you don't leave feeling like a stuffed animal. Since you grill it yourself, it's up to you how it's cooked, and I love that aspect. The food came out pretty fast (granted, it's uncooked so it should) and the veggies were particularly good. Basically, you sit down, they turn on your grill, paint some oil on it and you're cookin and eating in about 20 mins. The tuna appetizer is darn good too. Pros: fast service Cons: very small table surfaces more

I have eaten here a couple times and it was ok. the last time i went with another couple, they sat us near the back by the restrooms. There was a huge colony of ants crawling up the wall!! we didn't complain until we where done because we really did not feel like moving. when i told our waitress she said they knew of the problem and decided to start using that table again... WHY!!!! MAKE SURE THE BACK BOOTH BY THE WALL IS FREE OF ANTS BEFORE YOU SIT THERE! more

I have to admit - I'm a pretty picky person when it comes to restaurants. That's why I can fully endorse Torrance Gyu-Kaku because they lived up to every single one of my expectations! They had the most helpful and friendly staff I've ever come across. On top of that, the food was absolutely delicious!!! The prices were not too bad - especially since they had some great daily and monthly specials. I've been a few times and I can already consider myself a regular. I strongly reccomend this restaurant to all Japanese food lovers in the South Bay! Pros: ambiance, parking, service, taste, value Cons: none! more

My wife and I had a fantastic experience dining at this restaurant. We were immediately greeted by a chorus of ""Irashaimase! Konbanwa!"" and tended to by a staff member. Since it was very busy, we had high expectations that this should be a great dining experience due to its popularity. Pros: service, food, happy hour and monthly specials, ambiance Cons: n/a more

The whole concept of bbq-ing your own meats and veggies is not a japanese import. Most of their menu items were korean food, and mediocre, if that. A tiny teacup plate of raw meat costs about $7. Their tofu salad is really good, probably the only delicious thing on the menu. The servers, on the other hand, are wonderful. They're very attentative, expect to pay loads in tips when you dine there. Pros: friendly servers, ambiance, tofu salad Cons: food mediocre, not authentic, expensive more

i have been here so many times because the food is so good! service is also great. but the food is what keeps me going back. they have happy hour there but i haven't gotten a chance to check it out yet but looking forward to do so Pros: food more
