    My boyfriend and I had the pleasure of visiting the Gyu in Tokyo and it was nothing compared to the one in Chicago. They didn’t have many options and we were left feeling underwhelmed. Today we redeemed ourselves! My boyfriend ate every crumb and raved about how this was the best dinner he had in a long time! Thank you Gyu Chicago for always knowing how to treat us!

    This is my favorite Korean bbq place to go to in Chicago. The quality of meat is superb and delicious. The service is so nice, friendly, and courteous. It’s nice that they help us cook the meat since we have to also tend to our crazy toddler. I love that they have small plates and utensils for kids. The only thing I hope they improve is the amount of condiments. They are a little stingy on these. They should refill these right away. Most Korean bbq places do this automatically and without having to ask. Overall, the place is fantastic and their ventilation system is phenomenal. Will go back again.
