The food at Guu is always good with plenty of choice. The restaurant was not very busy, fairly quiet but it was a Thursday evening in Feb.

Beef Tongue dish was hard to chew. It was either way over cooked or a really bad cut. Beef tongue should melt in ones mouth but this was leather. Had salad, chicken karaage (pieces were small but moist), fish was well cooked but sat in a too large plate. Garlic truffle fries were slightly over salted and needed a bit more cheese.

Guu is bigger than the typical Izakaya in Japan but the feel is close to authentic. Can't go wrong with Sapporo beer on tap (reasonably priced) and the food is tasty but not expensive.

Large selection of food and drinks. As authentic Japanese Izakaya that you'll find in Vancouver. Prices are very reasonable and the food is tasty. Friendly staff!

Service was a little lacking cause we arrive at 5pm for happy hour and there was only 1 waiter. Although it’s not busy but it’s just too much for 1 person. I believe there were at least 2 more servers arrive after 6pm for dinner hours. Foods were good. We order foods from happy hour menu alone and we’re too full to order anything from dinner menu.

Food quality has declined particularly in relation to the other Gu’s in the area. Place was empty on a Saturday night. Their daily specials were not as good as before- so rather disappointing

Food is good probably a great spot during the sunshine. Went in the evening during the week. Menu could be a bit clearer to support new guests.
