    Went here twice in 2 weeks so you know the food is good! AYCE but quality. Our favorite were the galbi, steak, pork jowl and cold noodles. Best dessert would be the coffee pudding and you can't say no to ice cream - they got matcha or vanilla. The service was good however you might get rushed out when the restaurant is full and has people waiting. Ambiance is fine and I like that you don't smell like bbq afterwards! Definitely check it out.

    This all-you-can-eat Japanese barbecue spot was honestly such a good experience. Literally endless sushi, tons of well-seasoned meats, and a huge menu with so many options to choose from. The quality of the food really stood out, everything tasted fresh and well made, especially the grilled meats. They were seasoned perfectly and cooked so well. The menu is actually really big, which I loved because there's something for everyone. From different types of sushi and rolls to a variety of meats and hot dishes, you definitely won't get bored. And the desserts were such a highlight. The crème brûlée was so good, and they even had matcha ice-cream. The interior is really nice too. It has more of a dark aesthetic, which makes it feel a bit upscale, but it was super lively inside. It was packed when I went, and the energy in the room was great. Even though it was busy, it didn't feel chaotic, just fun and vibrant. The service was also really good. Our server was so sweet and attentive, which made the whole experience even better. Overall, such a solid AYCE spot with great vibes, good quality food, and amazing dessert options. I'd definitely go back.

    Thoroughly enjoyed this AYCE located in Mississauga. Enjoyed it so much that I didn't take any pics of the food. The food was great. The sushi was fresh and so very good. Not too much rice with each piece. The meal was quality. Amazing cuts of meat. All very tender and well seasoned. Their cheese corn is pretty bomb also. And they serve cocktails! It was the evening and quite busy (lots of people waiting for a random Tuesday night). A reasonable volume but fairly frequently they play a birthday song. I soon found out why. Seems like anyone can have a birthday there. All of a sudden, it was my birthday (note, it was not my birthday) but we all laughed about it. They bring a big flashing board, sing happy birthday, they bang clappers and you get a little cup cake with a candle. No lie, the birthday song played between 10-15x during our meal. Statistically unlikely but hilarious and very amusing. They also offered 10% cash discount instead of 7%. We opted to pay with credit card so no discount but it was a nice offer regardless.

    Wanted to try a new kbbq place, but ended up at a jbbq place instead with sushi! The service was awesome, we came right before the rush and took our time as we had 2h to eat (seating limit) Listened to two birthday songs happen and had fun clapping and cheering haha The food was amazing, sushi was decent quality.. just a nice extra touch!

    Great jbbq spot! We walked in after work and were able to grab a seat right away. There was also sushi on the menu but didn't try it this time around as we were craving for bbq. I tried the udon which was yummy as well. The service was very attentive, they were clearing plates and taking our orders efficiently. Definitely would visit again while in the area!

    Great quality & value is usually less common to come by when dining at an AYCE restaurant but Gyu Kyou absolutely knocks it out of the park. I was introduced to this restaurant by my friend and have since revisited several times, each bringing new people to share this experience with. The quality of the food is amazing, and even when you're on a smaller menu like the lunch one, you still have plenty of solid options with immaculate flavor. My personal favorites are the sweet soy sliced brisket and the pressed salmon sushi. I also really enjoy their soft serve. Atmosphere is pretty cool and seating is ample, I like that most tables are booths, and even if you end up with a chair they are pretty comfy. There is also an automatic 12% gratuity charge and a 1.5hr dining time limit which is strictly enforced. I don't have a problem with this though because service is always on top of everything like refills, reordering, grill changes, etc. The only critique I have for this place is the birthday music they play at an obnoxious volume, when the song comes on you can literally hear it getting slightly distorted from how loud it is. I totally understand wanting to make someone's birthday celebration special and grand, all I'm suggesting is to turn the volume down like 5-10 levels. Especially because every time I've been to Gyu Kyou, they play the birthday song multiple times and after the second it gets kind of annoying from the volume. Highly recommend this spot for AYCE Japanese BBQ, it's honestly better than a lot of KBBQ spots in the GTA and you get more bang for your buck.

    Amazing Japanese BBQ spot! This has quickly flown to be top of my list for Japanese BBQ. There is such a great selection of an assortment of items from apps to meats, to side dishes. The servers are really attentive and are constantly around to take your orders. There's also ample parking in the plaza which makes it easy to roll into your car after having an amazing meal!

    Might be the best AYCE bbq in the GTA! I said it yes, better than gyubee. The meats were very good quality and they had very good appetizers that other places do not have like tempura king oyster mushroom and spicy rock shrimp. The sushi was very refreshing and good quality not fishy at all. Highly recommend pressed salmon sushi and fire dragon roll. Service was fast and efficient there was a server walking by very often. It was easy to order. Ambiance is a bit dark interior and the restaurant was average size. They had a nice restroom. Thankfully my party arrived around 5 on sunday there wasn't a wait list but once 6-7 o'clock came there was a huge waitlist.

    Service is absolutely abysmal. We come on a Thursday evening and it's PACKED. The wait list had 36 groups on, several groups of 2. Why? Because this place doesn't allow reservations for parties 5-6 or greater. We joined the wait list around 7:30 pm. We were told to check in at 8:25 pm, upon doing this we were then told by the moron host that "I have to send you a text to check in first". We check in again at 8:54p pm, still no message. Last call is at 10:10 pm and there was only around an hour to order. While writing this it had been nearly an hour and a half since joining the wait list and we are ONLY 6th in line due to other groups dropping out of the wait. DO NOT do date night here. Plans will be eviscerated by the severe lack of organization regarding seating. If you want to eat here, john wait list 2 hrs prior to arrival.

    Enjoying grill time!

    Got a little hesitant to go here coz of the time limit of 1hr and 45mins and plus we have to cook but ended up staying for an hour which is just enough time for us! Ambiance is appealing! There is a partition on the booths which made it feel Very private on each side . I gave 4 stars coz of the limited choice of the desserts and the time limit! It was a great experience for the whole family but be careful while cooking as the flame gets bigger because of the oil of the meat! A must to try is the pressed salmon sushi! The vanilla ice cream has a distinctive taste different from other commercialise vanilla ice creams! We'll probably be back for a special occasion !

    Great selection of marinated meat, seafood, veggies, sushi, and kitchen items. Ample seating, quick service and friendly staff. Plus we only had to wait 15 minutes during prime dining hours, and the online wait list was very convenient.

    Came here on a Monday night, and they cancelled our reservation if it was under 6 people. Which was fine because we had a party of 4 and there was no wait time at the time. Food- a lot of variety to choose from. Great thin and flavourful cuts of meat. Sushi was good as well! A great variety of items that can meet the pallette of a group. Service- attentive and polite. They were so sweet and the food came so quickly :) Birthday special* - they come out with a large sign and a small dessert. They sing!! Overall would recommend for ayce. Would come back!

I'm not sure how much my friend putting us on wait list before arriving helped but we waited about 30 mins before it was our turn. There were 5 of us (4 adults and one toddler) and we were in a booth for four adults. The booths are pretty small considering all the things you can order. Luckily our booth was against a wall with space to put the dishes that didn't fit on the table. Dinner service was very busy as it was difficult to flag down a server to order. Once we ordered, the meats came out very fast. I think the cuts offered at Shinta are high quality for an AYCE restaurant. Currently Shinta offers an order of free A5 wagyu with your dinner. Everyone really enjoyed the Wagyu, even my toddler! The sushi that they offer was also good. I opted to eat less sushi to fill up on the meat. For dessert, the majority of us got the mango pomelo sago. It was refreshing! Overall, I really enjoyed Shinta and will be having my birthday dinner here next month! They also offer a free 6" cake if you reserve at least three days in advance.

My favorites were the marinated kalbi, beef tongue, and red saikyo brisket-- they had the perfect amount of marbling so nothing was rubbery & everything melted in your mouth. Sushi was actually amazing for an ayce spot especially presentation wise, the Takumi Signature which had apple in it was really good, the colors, textures, and flavors worked really well together. Highly recommend that & the black forest roll as well! They also have a great seasoning selection, definitely a wider variety than your average spot and their ponzu is so much better than your standard brisket sauce!! Service was friendly, efficient, and attentive. They did a great job at keeping our table clean, waters topped up, and grills changed when needed. Seating is ample and comfortable. Also LOVE that they had Melona as one of their dessert options even though we were too stuffed for anything sweet towards the end. 4.8 stars but I'm still giving 5 only because they didn't have beef belly (BRUH) which is a KBBQ/JBBQ staple ;-; and my personal favorite, otherwise would be a solid 5.

After bringing our food, she disappeared completely and never once checked on us. We ran out of water and spent about 15 minutes trying to find someone. When we finally got another server's attention, we asked for more water and a few additional side dishes since the portions were so small. He only brought one small dish and never returned. Throughout our meal, not a single staff member asked how everything was or if we needed anything. When we left, the person at the front didn't even acknowledge us or say goodbye. What was even more noticeable was that the other tables around us weren't receiving much attention either, so it didn't appear to be an isolated incident. We work in the service industry ourselves and are usually very generous tippers because we understand how demanding the job can be. Great service goes a long way, but unfortunately this restaurant completely missed the mark. There are plenty of excellent Korean restaurants with friendlier service, more reasonable prices, and much more generous side dishes. Sadly, this won't be a place we'll return to.

They have an assortment of meat dishes, from chicken to beef to seafood. They even serve duck and lobster, although I have yet to try. The interior is quite welcoming and feels like a very old-school Chinese restaurant. The service is incredibly quick and they make sure to take your orders quickly, so if possible, try to look at the menu ahead of time or have an idea of what you want. We placed our orders and they gave us a nice hearty soup for free. It was a nice surprise. This time around, we ordered sauteed scallops, beef with Maggi sauce, and the Yeung Chow fried rice. Everything was excellent. The rice had amazing flavour, and I like any sort of fried rice that combines meat and seafood so that was a plus. The scallops were also cooked really well. The beef with Maggi sauce was the star for me. Salty and savoury and the mushrooms and onions go so well with it. I would recommend it if you like an intense salty flavour. They also gave us a red bean porridge for desert. It was just fine for me but it was complementary so I can't complain. Overall, an amazing place to have Chinese food and super affordable as well. The portions are quite generous so you'll definitely get your money's worth.
