Gyu-Kaku Japanese BBQ: Expand Your Culinary Horizons Near Atwater

Treat your tastebuds to delicious authentic Japanese cuisine at Gyu-Kaku, the nearest BBQ spot from Atwater.

If you are looking to break out of a restaurant rut in Streeterville, there’s a place on East Ohio that could be just the ticket. Gyu-Kaku, a fast-growing chain of Japanese barbecue restaurants, gives patrons the opportunity to try eating authentic Japanese Yakiniku style in a relaxed and inviting atmosphere just minutes from Atwater.

The yakiniku culinary tradition is centered on a flaming charcoal grill that is built into your table. Diners choose among cuts of meat like shrimp, beef, pork or salmon to grill yourself right at the table. Order a few appetizers like the miso soup or spicy tuna volcano, and then try a round of sake while you wait for the coals to heat up. Everyone has their own favorites, but regulars particularly recommend the kalbi short rib and harami strip steak. The bigger your party the better, too, as you’ll have a chance to sample more of the restaurant’s dishes in one visit.
