Happy Hour* at Gyu-kaku in Tustin is available all day Mondays and has a great selection of food and drink specials.
Here are a few of our favorites:
1. The garlic topping on the spicy cold tofu ($2) was awesome. (Editor's note: Order extra garlic topping on the side to eat with barbecue.)
2. The garlic fried noodles ($5.95) with ground chicken was served in a hot stone bowl and was delicious.
The noodles were a little spicy and very garlicky. One of our favorites!
3. The cold sake ($5) was chilled and went well with the food. Other drink specials included Sapporo draft pitchers ($7.95) and wine ($3). 
Miso butter fish ($4.95): Cooked in foil and a 555 Girl favorite!
(*Editor's note 11/30/11: On a recent trip back to Gyu-kaku in Tustin, we found the miso butter fish was taken off the happy hour menu and is no longer offered at the discounted price.)

Avoid the New York steak miso and kim-chee. The steak was dry, kim-chee was salty and both were lacking in flavor.
Located on Newport Ave. in Tustin near the 5 freeway, we prefer Gyu-kaku during happy hour when its appetizer prices are up to 50 percent off.

I went to Gyu-kaku on Labor Day and enjoyed the 50% off happy hour items. Loved the garlic noodles and miso butter fish. Another amazing item was the spicy cabbage salad. The mound of cabbage was topped with a spicy garlic sauce - it was delicious and refreshing.
