Gyubee Japanese Grill (Bloor)

I had a fantastic dining experience at Gyubee. The service was truly exceptional, thanks to our server, Evelyn. She was attentive, friendly, and knowledgeable about the menu, offering great recommendations that made our meal even more enjoyable. I highly recommend and will definitely be returning—hopefully, with Evelyn as our server again!

My family and I finally got to try out this very popular AYCE Japanese BBQ restaurant! We got a reservation as we were a group of 6 (they take reservations for parties of 6 or more). I highly recommend getting this if you can as lines quickly filled up the hallway from the main entrance and every table was filled! You get 2 hours to eat at about $40-50 CAD per person. It may seem pricey but the quality of the meats alone was worth it! They provide high quality cuts of all kinds, and the meat themselves are marinated in all manners of flavours such as miso, garlic, black pepper and much more. The cuts are all super tender and melt in your mouth. There is a great variety of marinades to keep things fresh! Their seafood was also all fresh. The squid was delicious and the octopus in the Takoyaki was tender and just the right amount of chewiness. The sides dishes such as the pineapple, Butter Corn and rice all complimented the meats and seafood nicely. The staff here are hardworking, attentive and kind. They always brought our next orders of food we would request promptly! We got Crème Brûlées and the soft serve of the day for our desserts. The Crème Brûlée was delicious and rich while the soft serve (which was Ube-flavoured) was so refreshing. You can have as much as you like of everything. I’d definitely come back to Gyubee for another extravagant AYCE experience!

Went for the dinner and it was worth the wait. We were on the waitlist for approximately 3.5 hours. Food was amazing and service was great. We really liked the prime kalbi, marinated lamb, pineapple, and sweet potato. Their crème brûlées are also really good.We had May as our server and she was so friendly and sweet!

It is my second favorite restaurant in Toronto and anytime when I travel around for more than two months I miss this place so much. I love going here with friends or alone. Just eat all the meat. Love you love it love it. Everything taste so good and fresh.

I have been here just a few days ago with my family. The atmosphere was friendly. The food was served really fast, and the quality was great. Our server was Allison. She was extremely nice, welcoming, and always smiled. It took us a while to decide what we wanted to eat, but Allison recommended us with lots of good food options. Definitely gonna come back again soon!

My friends and I had a great time at the Gyubee Japanese Grill. Kudos to Mew who made this experience super smooth and peaceful.

Ivy provided exceptional service throughout our meal. From the moment we sat down, she greeted us with a warm and genuine smile, making us feel welcome. She was incredibly attentive, ensuring our drinks were always topped off and checking in at the perfect times without being intrusive. Her recommendations were spot-on, and she made thoughtful adjustments to meet our preferences. Ivy’s positive energy and professionalism made the dining experience memorable. It's rare to encounter such a level of personalized service, and her attentiveness truly made our visit special.

We wanted to try Gyubee many times in Montreal but couldn’t make it. Came randomly during our walk when in Toronto and were very happy, food was delicious, staff was friendly and efficient and price was reasonable for an all you can eat lunch.
