Great Japanese grill experience! The miso marinated steak and miso beef brisket were flavorful and cooked up perfectly, and the bibimbap was fresh and delicious. Service was fast and very friendly.

Great quality meat and definitely worth the price. The meat and desserts were delicious and the food came out very quickly. Ken, who served us, was very attentive and thoughtful. Excellent service and a great dining experience overall!

We went to this location for lunch during the holidays. We arrived shortly after 12pm and we got our table immediately. We ordered our food from our server Cora. The food came pretty quickly after ordering. The BBQ stove was having decent fire power. It was much better than Shinta as they turned down the stove so that you have to cook the meat longer. Meat quality was decent. I liked the steak so I ordered another one. The second one was too fatty and not as good as the first one. Cora was attentive. She actively replaced our grill net without asking. Empty dishes were collected promptly. She replenished our lettuce and gave us extra napkins. Her service was 5 stars! You can get $1 off per person if you pay cash. 15% gratuity was already included in the bill. There were plenty of parking spots in the plaza.

Meat Mania !! If you love beef and are a fan of the cook-your-own style of restaurant, then you have to check out a Gyubee location. A group of friends and I went on a Sunday night, and since someone knew someone, we actually had a reservation, albeit a somewhat informal one. Gyubee has a waiting list, where you come to the restaurant, and the host assigns you to a ninety-minute seating block on a first-come, first-served basis. They have all sorts of table setups, and as we had a larger group, we were seated in two large booths. Gyubee focuses on Beef, and they have many different cuts, including some higher-end cuts of beef. They also have flavoured meats, cuts of pork, seafood options and some veggie options as well. If you are a vegetarian or Vegan, your choices will be limited. The servers are helpful, as I had to ask them how to cook some of the clam dishes they brought to the table, and they did a great job explaining how to do it. Gyubee also serves a wide variety of drinks, including alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks. So everyone can enjoy their meal and have a drink or two if they want to. The food comes out fairly quickly, and be mindful as you approach the end of your allotted time, as they will charge you for leftover food. We had some heavy-hitters at our table and managed to finish everything with about five minutes to spare. Overall, a great experience, with great memories and, of course, great food.
