Gyu-Kaku fonctionne comme un concept de barbecue japonais interactif où les convives grillent des coupes de viande premium directement à leur table. Le menu met en avant une variété de protéines marinées, incluant la bavette Harami et la langue de bœuf, complétées par une sélection de légumes frais et des entrées traditionnelles. Chaque table dispose d un système de ventilation intégré conçu pour maintenir la qualité de l air pendant le processus de cuisson. Les clients personnalisent leur repas en choisissant diverses sauces et accompagnements tels que la soupe miso, les gyozas et le riz blanc vapeur. L établissement se concentre sur l aspect convivial de la cuisson sur table, fournissant des ingrédients crus préparés pour une saisie immédiate. Les sélections de bœuf suivent des techniques de marinade précises pour améliorer la tendreté et les profils de saveurs avant d arriver à table.
Gyu-Kaku propose une expérience culinaire interactive et engageante qui reçoit régulièrement des éloges pour la haute qualité de ses viandes, la fraîcheur de ses ingrédients et la saveur de ses marinades. Les clients apprécient particulièrement le concept ludique de griller soi-même ses aliments à table, ce qui en fait un choix prisé pour les anniversaires, les sorties de groupe et les rendez-vous galants. Bien que l'ambiance soit décrite comme animée et festive, certains visiteurs notent qu'elle peut devenir assez bruyante aux heures de pointe. Le personnel est largement reconnu pour sa gentillesse, son attention et ses conseils précieux, notamment pour ceux qui découvrent le barbecue japonais. Si certains clients trouvent les prix un peu élevés et font parfois face à un service lent lors des périodes d'affluence, la majorité des convives estiment que la qualité de la nourriture, les formules généreuses du midi et le service chaleureux justifient amplement la visite.
10000/5 stars, no exaggeration.
Gyu-Kaku is that spot. The kind of place you don't just like, you love.
This has officially become our spot, the place my boyfriend & I keep coming back to because it never misses. Ever. The food is insanely good. Every cut, every bite, every sauce is consistently amazing. The vibes are warm, fun, intimate, & just straight-up comforting. Somehow, every single visit is better than the last, which feels impossible, yet here we are.
A special & heartfelt thank you to the incredible staff who truly make this place shine, especially Alden, Mico, & Eric. You guys are genuinely amazing & make every visit feel special, personal, & memorable. Also huge love to the server who went out of his way to create new drinks & even let us taste his invention. I'm so sorry I forgot your name, but your passion & kindness did not go unnoticed.
This isn't just a restaurant to us anymore. It's a place tied to memories, laughter, comfort, & quality time. The kind of place where you leave already excited to come back.
Consistently good. Everything. Every time.
If you're thinking about going, go. & then go again. & again.
10,000/5 stars, forever.

Un de mes restaurants préférés à Montréal ! J'y vais souvent, notamment le midi pour le menu à 20$ incluant soupe, salade, riz & 3 choix de protéine. C'est vraiment un bon plan dans le quartier !
The food at Guy Kaku was excellent, which makes this experience even more frustrating. Unfortunately, the service & management completely ruined what should have been a pleasant visit.
I called a full week in advance to make a reservation for January 2 for five people. I was very clear on the phone & specifically asked whether January 2 was considered a holiday & whether the lunch menu would apply. The hostess put me on hold for 5-10 minutes to double-check & then clearly told me that January 2 was NOT a holiday & that the lunch menu would be available. Based on that confirmation, I made the reservation.
When we arrived, the manager came out & told us the hostess was mistaken & that the lunch menu would not be honored. There was no apology, no attempt to take responsibility, & no effort to accommodate us despite the mistake being entirely on their end.
Mistakes happen - but dismissing a customer after giving incorrect information, especially when it was confirmed in advance, is unacceptable. For a restaurant at this level, I expected far better communication & accountability.
Amazing food, but I will seriously think twice before returning due to how poorly this was handled. Be very careful reserving here -they only want your money & refuse to honor what they promise
La cuisine était très bonne & très variée.
Le restaurant nous plonge dans une ambiance immersive.
Les serveurs sont extrêmement gentils. Il y a eu un petit incident de « verre renversé », rien de grave mais on nous a quand même offert nos entrées & nos boissons. Je recommande vivement & vous remercie encore!
After a year, I finally ate again at my favorite Japanese restaurant. It still feels the same as the first time I came here. I ordered the spicy pork & beef yaki shabu, still my top choice. The flavor hits right every time.
The staff are polite & attentive. The music fits the mood & adds to the vibe. The place feels comfortable & familiar.
One funny downside. This place reminds me of someone who introduced it to me & is no longer part of my life. That said, no regrets. The food & the experience stay solid.
This is the second time I've been here & unfortunately the last.
One of my friend has a severe sesame allergy, she called beforehand to ask & let them know. We told them the moment we sat down & they told us they'd ask the kitchen & remove the sesame when they could or at least let us know in advance.
To our shock, ALL the plates came with sesame seeds. They did NOT warn us, & when we asked if at least they could make sure there wasn't sesame seeds in the last plates they said it was too late & that the plates were already made. & that was after we told them on 3 different occasions.
At this point the taste isn't the question, this was simply unacceptable & if not for our vigilance, this could of ended in a really dangerous situation.
