With a wide selection and unlimited servings of everything you want on the All-You-Can-Eat All Day, Everyday menu, value and variety makes this one of the metro's best dining deals yet. The year-long promotion is all set to establish Gyu-Kaku Japanese BBQ as the hottest new dining destination in GH Mall (for more on the formal opening of Gyu-Kaku Japanese BBQ last May, see my earlier post Gyu-Kaku Japanese BBQ, Now Grillin' at GH Mall in Greenhills).
A soothing glass of hot tea is served before the all-out feast at Gyu-Kaku Japanese BBQ to open up the palate...
...as the first courses arrive at the table starting with a comforting bowl of Miso Soup. A few more sips and your Japanese BBQ feast is off to a great start. You can also opt for the Wakame Egg Soup from the menu.
The Kani Salad is the perfect side to your sumptuous Japanese BBQ feast with its silky smooth and creamy richness and the succulent briny sweetness of the crab sticks combining for indulgent and fresh notes. Other salad options include the Wakame Salad, Caesar Salad and Sanchu Lettuce Wrap.
Pair your salad with a variety of tempting appetizers like the Yasai Chijimi, Chicken Karaage, Crispy Pork Belly, Seaweed Fries and Beef Croquettes. Katsu? Gyu-Kaku Japanese BBQ offers the Chicken Katsu and Pork Katsu. Can't decide? You can try them all at your own pace.
And don't forget the pickled vegetables to temper the savory richness of the grilled beef, pork and chicken. Gyu-Kaku Japanese BBQ offers four types of pickled vegetables like the Kimuchi, Assorted Kimuchi, Kon Namuru or bean sprouts and Muchai or pickled radish. The sweet and sour tartness of the pickled vegetables brings contrasting flavors to the table, cleansing the palate for another round of beef, pork and chicken fresh off the table top grill.
Test the grill with some tasty Yakitori like the Enoki Maki rolled in pork bacon. It just takes a few minutes to crisp up the pork for a savory bite straight off the table top grill. The flavors are fresh and clean, simply seasoned as the grill does the rest. Other Yakitori offerings include the Pork & Scallions and Beef & Mushroom.
The first batch of specialty meats by Gyu-Kaku Japanese BBQ are then presented...
...with the all beef quartet of Harami Shio, Harami Tare, Brisket Spicy Miso and Brisket Blend plus Pork Shio, Pork Blend and Pork Garlic. Pair your assorted meats with Yakionigiri Rice, a bowl of Steamed Rice or the Sanchu Lettuce Wrap. A special dipping sauce is also served with your order.
Start with the thin pork cuts to grease the table top grill. The fiery hot grill drapes its magic on the cuts of juicy pork as the edges slowly crisp up...
...and it's time to turn over the pork for an evenly grilled finish. The flavors from each plate of pork are enhanced by the shio, garlic and special blend of seasonings lingering long on the palate. And there's nothing quite like enjoying fresh grilled meats at its flavorful peak.
The deep soothing heat of the Brisket Spicy Miso adds a flavorful layer to the tender beef. And it's a solid punch that will have you going for another piece. A spoonful of steamed rice makes this a meal...
...or better yet, practice your lettuce wrapping skills with your choice of freshly grilled meats along with a dab of Kimuchi for a delectable play on contrasting textures and flavors. And the best part, you can enjoy your feast at your own pace. The bold flavors of the beef punches through with each bite highlighted by layers of flavorful seasonings from the sweetness of the Tare sauce, the subtle sharpness of the salt-based shio, the clean and uncluttered notes from the Brisket Blend and the soothing heat of the Brisket Spicy Miso finished with just a hint of sweetness.
As you grill your last plate, your second batch of beef and pork are served just in time to fill up the hot table top grill. Gyu-Kaku Japanese BBQ also offers tender slices of Chicken Teriyaki as an option.
The grills are replaced regularly so you get to enjoy perfectly grilled meats. There's nothing quite like grilling your meats right on your table adding an interactive element to your dining experience at Gyu-Kaku Japanese BBQ.
The pork takes a little longer on the grill, slowly transforming with its charred and crisp edges...
...while the beef takes mere minutes for that perfect finish with a juicy pink center. Keep your eye on the grill as it's easy to overcook your beef.
Once you get the hang of it flipping the beef only once, your plate of Harami Shio, Harami Tare, Brisket Blend and Brisket Spicy Miso brings endless rounds of bold beefy richness with each bite along with the savory notes of the Pork Shio, Pork Blend and Pork Garlic.
It's way past three in the afternoon, and that strange feeling when you're the only one left still eating at the Eat-All-You-Can All Day Everyday offering of Gyu-Kaku Japanese BBQ with the staff cheering you on is a sure sign that you'll soon be back for another round.
The popularity of the eat-all-you-can format has made it a staple in the local dining scene with no sign of slowing down. It's not the first time the Japanese brand offered an eat-all-you-can option, validating the popularity of the format (for more on their previous offerings, see my posts Eat-All-You-Can Japanese BBQ at Gyu-Kaku, All Day, Everyday... from 2019 and Grilling For The Weekend at Gyu-Kaku from five years back).The promise of both value and variety is just too good a hook among an emerging social media savvy generation of diners but finding that relevant differentiation becomes key in setting one concept apart from the rest. Built around the culinary theme of Japanese barbecue, Gyu-Kaku Japanese BBQ offers a unique dining experience with the all-you-can-eat format while maintaining the brand's identity. Any way you look at it, the All-You-Can-Eat All Day, Everyday offering at Gyu-Kaku Japanese BBQ is one treat not to be missed.
For dessert, cap your All-You-Can-Eat All Day, Everyday barbecue feast at Gyu-Kaku Japanese BBQ with the Gyu-Kaku Ice Cream or the Popcorn Ice Cream. But here's one cool hack. In just a few steps within the same space, you can opt for a decadent silky smooth scoop of Morelli's Gelato. This month, the Raspberry Cheesecake is the featured flavor with its creamy cheesecake richness perfectly complemented by the vibrant tartness of fresh raspberries. Both Gyu-Kaku Japanese BBQ and Morelli's Gelato are managed locally by G Sam Philippines (for more on Morelli's Gelato, see my previous post Scoopin' and Chillin' at Morelli's Gelato, Now Open at GH Mall in Greenhills from early this year).
Japanese BBQ and gelato for a solid one-two punch. There's just no better way to cap a sumptuous Eat-All-You-Can All Day, Everyday feast at Gyu-Kaku Japanese BBQ than with an indulgent scoop of Morelli's Gelato for a classic sweet ending. And you'll find both in one place at GH Mall.
Gyu-Kaku Japanese BBQ and Morelli's Gelato are located at the Lower Ground Phase 1, GH Mall, Greenhills, San Juan.
