This is one of the best Japanese BBQ places I’ve tried. Dinner was an amazing experience. The meats were upscale, the choices were outstanding and so was the taste. It’s a BBQ but the staff cooks for you table side that way it’s cooked to perfection. It was pricey to say the least but worth it for a splurge night! Waygu A5 was on point!!

4.5 / 5.0 - I’d had Yakiniku Futago on my list for ages and finally came for lunch yesterday with a friend. I didn’t even know they were open for lunch until recently and I’m guessing it’s not widely known because it wasn’t super busy. It is on the pricier side, but was so worth it.
For lunch, they have Regular and 1/2 size. The Regular is double the price of the 1/2 size and comes with 8 slices of meat—the 1/2 size comes with 4. My friend and I decided to get one of each, so we could each have 6 slices.
In addition to the BBQ, they had rice sets and other “add-on’s” like soup and salad, as well as other appetizer dishes and “beef sushi.”
We ordered:
- 1 Prime Short Rib (Kalbi) / Regular ($30+)
- 1 Prime Short Rib (Kalbi) / 1/2 ($15+)
- 2 Rice Sets ($5+ each)
- 1 Japanese Style Cold Noodles ($8+)
The regular size is served with salad, and the rice set included Japanese steamed rice, bone marrow egg soup and namul.
Everything was so delicious and the meat just melted in our mouths.
It is a spacious restaurant and the tables were spaced out, which was nice. And there is good ventilation right above the grill, so it didn’t get smokey at all.
$40+ is a bit expensive for lunch, especially for the amount of food you get, but it is high quality meat. If you love yakiniku and have never been, I highly recommend you give it a try!
Best BBQ by far! The chef knew every ingredients they dealt with. The meat was cut perfectly. Highly recommend the signature cuts - thick-cut tenderloin steak and thick-cut beef tongue were beyond expectation. The tenderloin was well balanced with the garlic butter sauce. The waiter served us was very knowledgable to explain the grill technics as well as how the sauce was made. It’s also a surprise they offered full dinner menu for weekend lunch. BTW, it’s more like Japanese & Korean fusion BBQ (not a problem but interesting to see they use scissors, serve bibimbap, serve lettuce for Wagyu)
It wasn’t anything spectacular. I wasn’t a fan of the sweet marinades, meat quality was tougher than expected for the most expensive selection of meats. Very small amount of meat for a bill that’ll most likely be $130+ easily. It’s good but not good for it’s price
We've been here a couple of times and the food never disappoint! We got the special wagyu this time and the server cooked it for us. Every part of that meat was so delicious! We also tried the cold noodle this time and it's a perfect refresher after the jbbq. The dessert matcha shaved ice was really good too. 10/10 would recommend and would definitely come back again!
We had a unique experience at Yakiniku Futago for lunch much on a Friday afternoon. It’s fun to cook the food ourselves. It was a bit new to us, but it’s fun to try. The steak and chicken had great flavors. Next time I probably will try more stuff there.
Very nice high end Japanese steakhouse. Prepare yourself for everything on the menu to be expensive but completely delicious melt in your mouth amasing. Service was great, food was great, lots of great sake as well. You can sit at the bar and get a limited menu if the restaurant is full and you'll still get a pretty epic meal.
Really a wonderful diner here. We have very high standards, but this was magnificent!!
The place if you like Wagyu and want to have a good time.
Nice high-end Japanese/Korean barbecue steakhouse. The bill can add up quickly if you don’t pay attention, dinner for four was $206 before tip and without drinks.
The service was excellent and if you are a regular diner, you even get (after 10 visits) a customized pair of gold colored barbecue tongs engraved with your name. The wait staff will assist you with grilling certain meats or will give you specific instructions on how long to grill each item.
Everything we had was delicious, beautifully seasoned or marinated and cooked to perfection. We loved the chicken, the pork neck, the dragon kalbi and more.
Very authentic Japanese BBQ but with relative high price comparing to Gyu-Kaku. If you have enough budget, it’s a must-go place to try some premium beef. We love the uni with wagyu on the special menu. Make sure to try the match rush. It’s like cold cloud melting in the mouth. The A5 wagyu in the treasure box is shipped by air directly from Japanese. The portion is not too much, but the taste is everything. Plus Very good service.
