What recent reviews say

Across more than a hundred catering events, CDL BBQ has earned a near-perfect 5-star rating by delivering meat cooked to order-standout tenderness, paired with elegant plating that raises corporate lunches above the ordinary. Staff like Carlos, Felipe, and Thiago appear by name in praise for orchestrating events flawlessly, from 40-person team lunches to 90-person celebrations, yet one reviewer noted a driver's unsafe road behavior, a rare crack in an otherwise spotless record.

The business operates across Orlando with both catering and food-truck services, drawing particular respect for Brazilian barbecue expertise and thoughtful touches (guava jam pairing, fresh sides). Reviewers consistently call out the level of care in setup, breakdown, and guest interaction as the real differentiator.

On quiet nights, Gyu-Kaku delivers tender meat and attentive service; regulars keep coming back. Evenings and weekends expose systemic gaps: 20-minute waits between courses, rushed plate-clearing before diners finish, and staff unfamiliar with allergen details despite premium pricing. The all-you-can-eat model breaks under volume.
