牛角日本燒肉專門店 南港車站店
The Gyukaku Japanese BBQ specialty store at Nangang Station is located on the 8th floor of Building C in CITYLINK, making it very convenient to walk from either the MRT or TRA Nangang Station.
Today, we chose the holiday Gyukaku plan, totaling 2,176 TWD for two people including service charge.
Gyukaku Plan:
Maximizes the balance between price and quality; the premium plan is a bit too expensive, while the options below the classic plan are too limited.
On the meat side:
The beef tongue is crunchy and bouncy, definitely worth trying; we ordered four servings. The rib meat at Gyukaku is firm and has great texture. The beef belly is very impressive; if you choose the garlic seasoning, they will generously top the meat with garlic paste when it’s served. The steak is relatively ordinary, though it might be because we don’t know how to grill it. The rolled pork with green onions is very fragrant, and the pork diaphragm and chicken cartilage are also not to be missed.
On the seafood side:
The grilled squid fins are quite interesting, and most seafood is served in aluminum foil boxes for easy grilling. The fresh oysters are large and very fresh, and the sweet yet not cloying flavor of the shrimp with mayonnaise makes both of these dishes quite appetizing.
On other aspects:
The signature cold tofu is very refreshing, and the variety of kimchi and cabbage is fresh and delicious with nothing to complain about. We didn’t order rice or noodles because we were full. Although it all looks very delicious, it would be pointless to fill up on starch if it means we can’t eat the meat.
On desserts:
Ice cream, panna cotta, mochi, and cotton candy—each of them is worth trying, and besides the desserts that come with the meal, there is also Meiji ice cream available for self-serving. I really tried all the flavors of desserts I could order because they are definitely worth it. 👍
Overall, this is a Japanese BBQ chain brand that balances quality and options. The quality of the meat is consistent, the dining space is spacious and bright, and the tables are adequately spaced apart to avoid crowding. The ordering method uses the current mainstream QR code system, which is convenient and efficient. The staff is not only friendly but also quick with serving and cleaning, making the service charge feel worthwhile. If the staff is busy, there are also cute delivery robots moving around; blocking them would make them angry!
Highly recommended for everyone!
