Gyu-Kaku Buffet Menu with Prices
Gyu-Kaku’s all you can eat buffet costs $49 to $81 per adult in the US, depending on the city and the tier you choose. The three tiers are Premium (45 items), Ultimate (65 items) and Supreme (80 items), and each one gives you 90 minutes at the table. In Houston the tiers cost $49, $59 and $69, while in Flushing, New York they cost $61, $71 and $81.

Gyu-Kaku buffet prices in Indonesia
Gyu-Kaku Indonesia runs its own buffet menus in Indonesian rupiah. The “++” means the price does not include tax and service charge.
| Buffet | Adult | Child or senior |
|---|---|---|
| Standard Buffet | IDR 248,800++ | IDR 168,800++ |
| Premium Buffet | IDR 453,800++ | IDR 353,800++ |
| Payday Buffet (select outlets) | IDR 299,000++ | IDR 199,000++ |
| Signature Wagyu Buffet | IDR 369,000++ | IDR 269,000++ |
| Ootoya Buffet | IDR 359,800++ | IDR 259,800++ |
| US Prime Karubi Buffet | IDR 629,800++ | IDR 488,000++ |
Senior pricing applies from age 65. Children under 120 cm are free on the Standard Buffet, children from 120 to 140 cm pay the child price, and taller guests pay the adult price. Wasted food is charged at IDR 50,000 per 100 g. Prices were taken from the official Indonesian menu pages posted between April and October 2026.
Is the Gyu-Kaku buffet worth it?
The answer depends on how much meat you eat. At Houston prices, six or seven mid-priced BBQ plates cost about the same as the $49 Premium tier. For example, Toro Beef, Yaki-Shabu Beef, Angus Beef Rib, New York Steak, Pork Belly, Chicken Basil and Shrimp Garlic add up to about $55 à la carte.
AYCE is a better deal for groups that want to try many items. It is a weaker deal for light eaters, because you pay for the time slot and any uneaten food is billed à la carte. Also remember that only 2 items arrive per person at a time, so the 90 minutes pass quickly.
