Solid AYCE JBBQ restaurant. I've been to their Markham location when they first opened and this is my first time at this location. My parents and I came for weekday lunch and opt for the lunch special for $28.99. In my opinion, this was a great option to try out a bunch of their food and there was quite a good variety of bbq and sushi. Service was prompt and there were no missing orders. Salad/appetizers/soup/dessert was self serve. That area however was a bit cramped when it busy. AYCE drink costed additional $1.99 but there was free herbal tea/plum tea that was self serve as well. Must order items: - short rib - top blade - king oyster mushrooms - truffle pepper roll - signature fish fillet - herbal tea - tremella osmanthus (dessert) There is free underground parking, however I was so used to having to get a QR code or smth afterwards, I completely forgot to ask them to validate my parking until I was leaving. They asked me to scan a QR code and that's when I realized I should've asked for it when I first arrived rather than when I was leaving because they asked how long I was staying. I also wished they would've asked in the beginning or mentioned something about parking.

July 8, 2026 - I got the ayce menu. We mainly got the different cuts of beef. Everything was very well seasoned and sauced very well. Desert was pudding and the shaved ice machine with tapioca bubbles and jelly topping. My favorite was the sushi roll wrapped in rice paper. It had a soft and unique texture but everything blended well when consumed. Overall very solid for an ayce BBQ place.

Mushy rice, ABSOLUTELY DISGUSTING.

This is going to be a very honest and personal review as I probably just had the worst AYCE BBQ restaurant ever. I wish I was exaggerating but I am really surprised with all the other positive reviews so I hope it was just a one off. I came here with my family to enjoy a meal for 6 and at first they sat us at a table where one guest would be too far from the table to enjoy their meal so we requested a new table. This is where the real horror starts, they gave us a bigger table and everyone sat comfortably with two grills for the group. However, we noticed one grill would barely emit any heat from the grill to cook our food. This problem would change intermittently and then it only stayed on one grill with really low heat. We told the server who then relayed it to the manager who came by to fix the problem. There was terrible communication with the manager and none of us could understand what he was saying (language barrier) and nothing was really done about the problem. We got the sense that they think the heat is normal even though we were cooking shrimp for almost 20 minutes. In the end, one half of the group got to enjoy their meal and the other half sat around waiting for food to slowly warm up which was EXTREMELY disappointing. Nothing against the server, he was great. But management is the problem here and they did NOT know how to handle the situation. Management never even apologized and only GAS LIT us further by saying this is because we wanted a different table. Then they tried to make up for it by offering us extra time to stay beyond the TWO HOURS. That is ridiculous and I would not want to be at a restaurant for even that long. To add salt on to the wound, they even automatically added their own tip which was just UNBELIEVABLE. This has got to be the worst place I have ever dined in and what a way to ruin our afternoon. NEVER COMING HERE AGAIN. I have never left an AYCE restaurant still hungry. Honestly the food wasn't even on par with many other places like Gyubee or Shinta. This is very low tier. Do not even get me started on the sushi, its a disgrace to call it that. The rice was mushy with only a sliver of fish on top. They do not know what they are doing. Don't just take my word, you could tell from pictures from other reviewers.

Really like this place for the variety of premium meat options it offers for Japanese bbq + the quality of sushi. They have truffle sushi and biscuits which is not common in other places. For bbq they will give you the raw and marinated meat and you just need to do it on your own. The location is good and there's lots of seating area so the place looks elevated. The dessert section is also loaded with shaved ice with toppings and so many different options. Service is fast and they also have a cold bar for salads.

Six people, two grills, and one of the most frustrating dining experiences we've had. We were initially seated with just one grill for six people. I sat at the head of the table but I was sat way too far to comfprtably eat (tables and seating was not moveable). After asking for a larger table, we were moved to a booth with two grills, but that solved very little. One grill would heat up while the other stayed cold, then they'd switch. We let the staff know several times, but the issue was never resolved. Thin cuts like beef tongue and even shrimp were taking over 20 minutes to cook without developing any char. Eventually, both grills stopped working properly altogether. Despite the restaurant being quiet, management didn't offer to move us until we'd already lost our appetites and given up. Our servers were kind, attentive, and genuinely tried to help, but management handled the situation poorly. The only compensation offered was waiving the two-hour dining limit, which didn't help when the grills couldn't cook the food. At one point, we were even gaslight and was told the grill was working fine and even pointed out that our meat was cooked, despite it having sat on the grill for over 15 minutes prior. The few items we managed to cook properly were good quality, which made the experience even more disappointing. We were glad we chose the lunch menu instead of the all-day AYCE. The sushi was underwhelming, with mushy rice and very thin slices of fish. Ironically, the yam tempura ended up being my favorite dish of the meal. To top it off, the gratuity was automatically added to the bill, and not once did management apologize for the experience. Unfortunately, this was enough to ensure we won't ever be returning.

Several years ago, this place used to be Gyukaku, which was an a la carte Japanese BBQ place with amazing quality meats and great individual meals (like their garlic fried rice and their ramens). They even had scallops! When Gyukaku closed down I was really disappointed but then I saw that they were going to be replaced with a new AYCE BBQ place called Gyuyaki and I was immediately curious. I've eaten here a few times and I can honestly say this place carries the torch really well. To start, they have an amazing salad bar with many options, from seaweed to mango salad, with additional toppings and sauces, as well as soup (I love their lobster bisque). They also serve tea and have a desert bar as well. Their food selection is amazing, ranging from your typical Japanese BBQ staples to some more niche items (such as the prince fish that they have, which I've never had before). Their menu also constantly updates which is a plus. The meat quality is amazing. I particularly like their chicken and their lamb. Their sushi is on par with a lot of dedicated sushi places, and they serve some really interesting rolls (such as the truffle wagyu and the scallop sushi). They also have some nice appetizer options, like tofu bites to fries to tempura. Their menu is huge, and you can really keep coming back here and trying something new. The service is very good and the staff is attentive. Last time I went, there was a lady making sure every table had napkins. The restaurant has a very modern look with the bar and the seating. Overall, a really nice place to get Japanese BBQ and it is conveniently placed near Mississauga City Centre.

We went there for a weekday lunch so indeed there is no line up and less people. However, the salad/soup bar area was not ready by noon. That area should all be ready to go at noon, including hot and cold drinks. I guess it was not managed well. After getting food from that area, it was yummy, especially the pickled radishes and mango salad. The servers were all good and it was easy to get one over. They even changed our grill top without us asking to do so. Many meat choices to pick from, including 5 beef type for the lunch menu. We loved the beef ribs. The scissors came in handy to cut the meat apart. They gave us a hard copy of the menu which was much appreciated as I didn't want to touch my phone throughout the meal. Lots of choices for dessert!! They even have a shaved ice machine!! I wished it had tapioca and some chopped up fruits to go with it. Overall, it was a great experience. We did have to pay for our bills on time, but they didn't kick us out. They have free underground parking - just remember your license plate.

Gyuyaki Japanese BBQ & Sushi in Mississauga is such a fun place to go when you want something different from the usual dinner. It's an all-you-can-eat Japanese BBQ experience where you grill your own meats right at the table, which makes it super interactive and perfect for going with friends. The space feels modern and lively, and the whole vibe just makes the night more enjoyable. The menu has a lot of variety; beef, pork, chicken, seafood, plus sushi and other Japanese dishes. So, you can try a bit of everything. The meats are fresh and flavourful, and the sushi is a nice bonus on top of the BBQ. The staff are very friendly and there's 4 hours of underground parking available.

30 min wait but worth it love the salad bar and mini dessert buffet options. They are on the busier side so I would book in advance!

Came here for lunar new year and the meal was pretty good. A good selection of different types of meats and the beef was really good. A little disappointed by the lack of seafood they have on the menu and the sushi was ok. They have an all you can drink if you follow them on Ig. They also have apps, soups, and drinks on the side for self serve. The place itself is really big and has plenty of seating. They also give free parking in the garage. Service was good. But sometimes it can be slow as the servers won't be too nearby.

From the moment you walk into the office building entrance, you can see the smoke fill the lobby as you walk towards the doors of the restaurant. Upon arriving, smoke filled the entire restaurant.... Now imagine making a reservation , only to be seated 45 minutes after your reservation time. I get that restaurants get busy, and you might expect to receive good service upon sitting down but no... We sat down, were ready to order within 3 minutes, and it took 25 minutes for someone to actually take our order. This is after we tried to flag multiple servers down (the ones with iPads) , and they either pretended not to see us (even though we made eye contact), or they simply told us to wait, and never came back. After placing our order we eventually started to get our food ... 20 minutes after ordering. So here we are sitting there ready to grill and our grill won't even heat up because we are sitting at the table closest to the open door letting in cold air.... All because of the poor ventilation of this place. Honestly you are better off going someplace else if you're looking for AYCE grill in Mississauga. Ps: for the photo you're getting a picture of an empty grill and lettuce (free to get yourself from the salad bar). Food: 2/5 Service: -100 for the slowest service and waiters who don't care Atmosphere -10 for overly smoky restaurant

Various food on the grill (tip: be careful with really thin slices of meat since they can get stuck to the grill or fall through)

Executive Summary/TL;DR: Excellent food quality, diverse selection of meats, sushi, and sides, friendly service, and solid value. One of the better Japanese BBQ AYCE spots in Mississauga. Background: I wanted to try this newly opened all-you-can-eat Japanese BBQ restaurant that replaced Gyu-Kaku at the same location. I'd eaten at Gyu-Kaku a few times (here and in Toronto) and liked the food, but the lack of AYCE made it feel expensive. Booking: I called Gyuyaki about a week ahead to reserve for 3 people for lunch on a holiday. They sent confirmation texts and reminders closer to the date. You need the Yelp app to reply/confirm (reply with 1). Not sure what happens if you don't confirm, but I didn't test it. Parking: Same as before -- 4 hours of free underground parking (you only get 2 hours to eat). We parked at Square One instead since we planned to shop afterward. Entry: Easy to find with big branding on the building. Enter through the main Sussex Centre southwest entrance -- there's a large logo right beside the bubble tea shop. Ambiance: Dark interior with mostly black decor and purple accent lighting. A bright LED light shines directly above the grill. Dining Experience: We arrived a few minutes late and the place was already packed even though it had just opened at 12 PM. After giving my name, we were seated quickly at a window table with comfortable cushioned seats and plenty of space for bags. The grill was already preheated -- a nice touch. Service: Our waitress was friendly and patient. She clearly explained the system: no paper menus, just scan the QR code on your phone. You tell her what you want and she orders via iPad. She was proactive about checking for the next round, swapping the grill net when needed, and clearing plates. We got a polite 1.5-hour time reminder, by which point I was already very full. Menu & Food: There's something for everyone -- beef, seafood, sushi, veggies, fruits, snacks, rice, and noodles. We chose the 2-hour all-day menu over the shorter lunch option for more variety. We skipped pork and chicken and ordered a bit of everything else. Portions are small (about 5-6 pieces per plate), but you can order multiple rounds, so it adds up nicely. The self-serve station has appetizers, drinks (including plum juice and green tea), and four ice cream flavors. Everything we tried was delicious and well-seasoned. The sushi and takoyaki were especially good. Tip: Avoid ordering very thin meats as they can stick to the grill or fall through. Bathrooms: Four individual bathrooms (one out of service). One is all-gender. Clean and decently maintained with Dyson hand dryers. Value: Our bill before tax was ~$138 ($45.99 per person for the all-day menu). A 15% tip was automatically added, which I found a bit annoying but fair given the excellent service. Overall, better value than both Gyu-Kaku and Gyubee. Would definitely return.

Very good selection of meats. The best was the salmon, and everything was well seasoned. You do have to make reservations, not sure if you could get a table if it's not made. Very attentive staff.

Tomo Sushi is located near the Erindale Go station, which has a lot of very nice Asian restaurants,…read moreso it has big shoes to fill as a non-AYCE sushi place. I've dined here twice and can say that this place is definitely worth going to, with its classic menu and generous portions. When I went here with my boyfriend on a Thursday afternoon, there wasn't a lot of people. We were able to get seated by the booth. The servers were very friendly. Although it took them no time at all to get the soup and salad for our order, everything else took a bit of time. My boyfriend got the ocean omakase tray, which I believe is a summer offering. It has a selection of sashimi (such as salmon, crab, and octopus), octopus salad, scallops, and more. My boyfriend really loved the quality of sashimi here. He also enjoyed the octopus salad though he stated that the wasabi flavour was a little strong. I got the Chicken katsu dinner, which was really good. The plate is huge and I actually didn't end up finishing it. I wish they gave a bigger bowl of rice also, but it wasn't a big deal. We shared a plate of shrimp tempura and that was good as well. We've tried their sushi before and it was very good. Not quite on the same level as the other heavy-hitter sushi places, but still very respectable and their fish quality is quite nice. My favourite thing about this restaurant is their presentation and portion size. Every dish is presented beautifully and you are always getting your money's worth.

On this recent visit, the space felt more modern and brighter overall. The layout is still basically the same though - the centre tables feel more open, while the side tables along the walls feel a bit more tucked away. The family I was with still comes here pretty regularly, so they knew what to order. Overall, the sushi and other dishes were solid for what they are. One thing to note is that the rolls are on the larger side with a lot of sauces and seasoning, so it leans more "Canadianized" than traditional sushi - which is great as long as that's what you're expecting to get. Service was friendly and quick too, so I'd definitely consider coming back again when I'm in the area.

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. Still highly recommend for a solid JBBQ spot in Sauga!

My favourite thing about this particular place is their kimbap. They make it really well here and I find that kimbaps are surprisingly uncommon.

The sashimi was not bad although having tasted better sashimi from other places, it didn't leave a lasting impression. We then did the create-your-own platter.

They are celebrating their 3rd year anniversary this month, so one can get some discount on lunch specials. Overall, it was a great experience and I would go back for the food. The menu is on the pricier side but lots to try or splurge on.
