Great place and very accommodating! More than 90% of the menu is gluten free and offered to change the hot plate whenever my partner contaminated it with gluten.

Almost everything on the menu is naturally gluten free, so we always make an effort to stop at Gyukaku if we are near one. You order your meat/veggies which come to your table raw, then you pop them on the grill to cook. All three sauces on the table are GF and you can even buy bottles of it to use at home. There are a couple sauces (teriyaki and basil?) that are used on some chicken dishes, so just make sure to sub for gf sauce. For example, the kids meal comes with teriyaki chicken, and the server was on top of it and said they'd sub in the sweet soy sauce instead since I had already asked her about gluten free when ordering something else. Can't say enough good things about this place.

Pro tip: lunch time is a lot cheaper than dinner time (though dinner is still worth it!)

Great experience here. Must make reservation. The first question staff ask before taking orders is if you have an allergy. They are very knowledgeable of gluten allergy and items on menu will be marked . Usually I go to bbq spots and can only order meat plain, because majority of the sauces contain wheat. But this restaurant’s sauce and marinades are almost all gluten free. So it was nice to try different marinades instead of just salt and pepper. A side note- the grilling tables I saw and sat at could hold about 4 people, but had a relatively small grill in the center. It’s perfect for 2 people but anymore and you won’t be able to cook fast enough for everyone. Especially if you opted for the all you can eat, there’s a 90 minute time limit. Overall great staff, flavors and good quality meat. An AMAZING spot for gluten free people.

One of my favourite spots! All of their sauces and marinades (apart from the teriyaki marinade) are gluten free and their menu is very clearly labelled. I let them know I have celiac and they took good care of me. I ordered the prime kalbi short rib, premium sirloin, scallops, broccoli, and plain rice. Love this spot and highly recommend. Definitely always let them know about your allergies/celiac so they can avoid cross contamination.
