I moved from Seattle last year where there is a teriyaki joint on every corner. But here in Colorado there is a severe lack of true teriyaki places. I have been searching for MONTHS to find an actual teriyaki place that isn’t Asian Fusion or part of a sushi restaurant. At long last I think I have finally found it. And what’s better, the food is amazing! After craving it we finally decided to give this place a try and we were not disappointed! I ordered the number 3 dinner teriyaki beef and my boyfriend had the number 1 combo chicken and beef teriyaki. We ordered to-go. The food was ready really quickly (about 10 mins) but it took me almost 15 to get there. The inside of the place is small but has a few tables to sit and eat. The portions of food are perfect and there is a great balance of rice, meat and vegetables. The beef was cooked really nicely with a great flavor and also had sauteed onions. The rice was perfect and mixed well with the beef. And I appreciate that it comes with stir fried vegetables instead of a small side salad. Overall it was fantastic and I will be back very soon!

NeoTsai Grill Teriyaki – Menu with Prices – 15762 Springdale St, Huntington Beach

This place is simple. I’ll keep my review simple. It’s a teriyaki joint, they have chicken, beef, fish. The teriyaki sauce is good, more leaned on the soy sauce side so not excessively sweet (thank you). Chicken is breast so that’s perfect for me. About $8-11 for a bowl depending on the protein and portion is big. Versus Flame Broiler I would say it is at least 1.5 times the meat. So a little bit more. Vegetables about the same, rice is more but I always ask for a small scoop. I tried their spicy teriyaki sauce too, was fine, not too spicy … maybe they just added a little garlic and sriracha/chili to it? There is an “orange” option so maybe I’ll do that because orange chicken without being fried … sounds nice. Seems like a married couple running it, they were super nice. The food takes time to cook but I didn’t mind, plus they kept me updated on the progress. They got purple rice! Also super nice about substituting to all vegetables or purple rice. I like it. This place is great for a lunch or dinner when you forget lunch or don’t want to cook. One weird thing … you can’t order beef or fish a la carte … only chicken …!!!

Bend-O Bento Japanese Kitchen Menu with Prices 1375 SE Wilson Ave #105, Bend

We came here for lunch. We ordered right away. My Mom and I split their bibimbap. My Brother got their teriyaki beef bowl. My Dad got their shrimp curry. My Brother and I got a bottle of Dr. Pepper to drink. My parents just got some cups for water. At first all the seats inside were taken. There aren’t that many seats inside maybe only about eight seats total. So we sat outside at the picnic tables. It was nice outside, but the tables had a spider under it that wouldn’t leave. So when people started leaving inside we went inside at their counter to eat. They were just about to bring us our food when we moved inside so they gave is our food at the counter. We got all our food at the same time. I asked for an extra bowl since my Mom and I were splitting. She got it right away. I first tried the bibimbap. The portions here are actually kinda petite. I could of eaten a whole portion of their food here. The bibimbap was really good. Very flavorful. I loved the miso in it. The kimchi brought some spice and the veggies gave it some crunch. Their rice was great, a little sticky and cooked perfectly. My Mom also got a side of their power rice because she wanted to try it. I don’t like brown rice, but I tried some and it wasn’t that bad. I liked the edamame in it. My Mom took the egg and mixed it with the power rice since I don’t like egg. I also had some of my Dad’s shrimp curry. I got a piece of shrimp, some rice and curry in my bowl. It was amazing. The curry was delicious and the shrimp was clean and had a crunchy panko coating. My Dad got the best dish if them all. My Brother devoured his teriyaki beef bowl so I’m sure he liked it. This place was great and the two women running it were super sweet. My Dad told them that their curry was excellent and they thanked him. This place was a great find and perfect for lunch.

Yamasaki Teriyaki – Menu with Prices – 9 Dixwell Ave, New Haven

My boyfriend and I stumbled upon Yamasaki Teriyaki as an option on Snackpass. I think we just found our new favorite quick, delicious, and cheap Asian-fusion place in New Haven! The restaurant itself is clean and spacious, and the servers and chefs are all so friendly. We ordered the Chicken Bento (with comes with chicken teriyaki over a bed of rice, a side salad with citrus Asian dressing, 3 pieces of gyoza, and 3 California roll sushis) and the Chicken Teriyaki Plus (with comes with chicken teriyaki, a choice of lo mein/fried rice/regular rice) a side salad with citrus Asian dressing, and your choice of hot & sour soup or miso. First of all, the portions are MASSIVE. For under eight dollars, you can get dish that could probably last you 2 meals. Second, the chicken teriyaki is of high quality, and the meat is tender and flavorful. The chicken strips are quite meaty, and they are all well seasoned with teriyaki sauce. The rice under the chicken teriyaki is incredibly soft and pillowy, kind of gummy, which is my favorite kind of rice! We ordered the chicken bento with vegetable lo mein, which was so savory and substantial. The gyoza in the chicken bento box could have been a little more flavorful, but the outside wonton skin was crispy! California roll was standard, and a nice touch. Finally, I have to mention that the dressing on the side salad is one of my new favorites – so tangy and creamy. In addition, I didn’t expect the salad leaves to be so fresh, which was definitely a nice surprise. I will definitely be coming back again!

Teriyaki Chicken Bowl – Menu with Prices – 473 Stony Point Rd, Santa Rosa

This place is so so good! The portions are really great too. The vegetables are always just right meaning they are steamed just enough to still have that good crunch. The rice is always cooked very well and the shrimp is amazing! I usually get the Cajun shrimp teriyaki which is season incredibly. My husband gets the shrimp teriyaki and always loves it! I’ve also had the Cajun chicken teriyaki which is also pretty good although I prefer the shrimp but my cousin loved that and the chicken teriyaki. They always give a great amount of teriyaki which is so good! And their homemade chili is bomb! The staff is usually super nice unless the two younger girls are there, they seem to be bothered by everything.

MJS Kitchen – Menu with Prices – 1953 E 4th St, Ontario

This place I found on Yelp while staying at a nearby hotel. It is a little shopping center near Popeyes and Stayer Bros. It’s towards the end of the shopping center and a little hard to spot from the street. We walked into this place and it is a small location. The music playing was low and very soothing. The menu has a variety of different food to choose but we chose to go with the three item combo. Now most three item combos come with small portions but this spot serves you big portions. I got the teriyaki beef, chicken katsu, fried shrimp, spam and steamed rice. The combo comes with a side salad as well and the dressing on it was delicious. The food…OMG so damn delicious!! The teriyaki sauce they use was not too sweet which was perfect because sometimes the sauce can tend to be too sweet. The katsu breading perfect! The shrimp…yummy!! Normally places give you one shrimp, maybe two but this place gave five big shrimp!!! May favorite which is always my favorite is spam so I had to get a side of that with the steamed rice. The other plate we got was the same except pork katsu and teriyaki chicken…bomb. The fried rice was very fluffy. What sold me on this place was the hospitality and the customer service!! They are VERY nice and treated us very well. The lady also made us a complimentary Mango peach iced tea and it was delicious! So refreshing in this heat. PLEASE, PLEASE VISIT THIS PLACE if you have the chance!! You won’t be disappointed.

Miyabi Jr. Express. – Menu with Prices – 4747 Ramsey St, Fayetteville

If Yelposphere would let me do a review with no stars….here would lie my review. The first thing I noticed the was that all the tables in the restaurant were dirty and full of plates from previous customers. I am not sure if it was a lunch rush or if everyone just left all at once and they were short staffed. I just know it was not a clean table in the place when I initially placed my order. The service was subpar but I was helped pretty quickly. Y’all know I love my Japanese and this was my first time here so I kept it simple with Teriyaki Chicken with the Vegetables. I asked for white sauce and hot sauce….I didn’t even want to take a leap and request some Ginger sauce too. Of course, I had to order to go because there were no clean tables available but it was okay because I didn’t have to go very far. My order was ready really quickly, which is never a good sign at a Japanese restaurant. A few minutes later (food was still hot), I opened my box and wanted to cry real tears because the Teriyaki Chicken literally looked like the mulch made of tree bark tossed in teriyaki sauce. I also had a small amount of “vegetables” (really onions….I could count my pieces of zucchini. There weren’t very many!) and nice helping of rice (which proved to be my only source of nourishment). The chicken was literally ALL dark meat chicken which had been cooked to death…it was so hard. For the amount of money they are charging,they should definitely be using chicken breast for their chicken dishes but they are using chicken thighs….YUCK! Most of my onions and one of my pieces of zucchini were charred. I even had pieces of onion skin in my vegetables, I guess they were in a hurry when they cut the onions! On to the sauce….because the sauce can save a dish! The hot sauce was spicy but just okay and the white sauce left a lot to be desired. Lucky for me, I always keep an emergency bottle of sriracha! Btw, the rice was actually pretty good with my sriracha and some of the teriyaki sauce.

Jinbeh | Japanese Restaurant – Menu with Prices – 301 E Las Colinas Blvd #301, Irving

To get right down to it, the food was just fine – not worth the price. I got the negimaki, which is beef wrapped around scallions. The beef was tender enough, but it was just too salty for my taste. It came with a side of vegetables, which were also really salty, but came with a good helping. Unfortunately, they were steamed too long because they didn’t really have that fresh bite. The rice really helped cut down on the saltiness of the overall dish, but not enough to really balance. It came with a side salad and a miso soup. My biggest problem though was that this cost $19. I would guesstimate that the amount of beef was around 3-4 oz, if even that, and a side of veggies. This dish is not worth the price. You can check my photo to see how much food you get. I can’t speak to the ramen or the sushi items, but if I were to come back, I’d rather try that next time. Also, the waitress came by when I was ready to order and to bring out food. But she barely said 2 sentences to me. If you’ve been here before, or you’ve read other reviews, you know which waitress I’m talking about.

Mayflower Restaurant – Menu with Prices – 414 S Military Ave, Green Bay

We ordered a quart of chicken and vegetables and a pint of beef with curry sauce and an extra order of rice. The chicken and vegetables had a red sauce that wasnâ??t too bad but was different than what we thought. The quart container was all chicken and vegetables, the rice was in a separate container.. . However, the pint of curry beef had the rice filling most of the pint container so there was not much beef or vegetables. It did have curry that was difficult to taste but most of the flavor or heat came from red pepper flakes. Way too many pepper flakes!. .

GO!! GO!! Teriyaki – Menu with Prices – 10430 19th Ave SE Suite 3, Everett

After a weekend of cold weather camping, we were headed home in the late afternoon and both my husband and I were craving teriyaki. We’d tried a lot of teriyaki in the area that was mediocre, so when I saw Go! Go! on the search results, we decided to order ahead. It’s important to note that this restaurant has been renamed and under new ownership and has much better reviews that the old one! My husband ordered his favorite, chicken katsu, and I ordered the beef & chicken teriyaki combo. When we arrived, there were a few patrons in the restaurant. The person working the front (I think may have been the owner) was very efficient and friendly while handling the phone and walk in customers. I noticed how lovely & simple the interior decor was. Very inviting. When it was our turn in line the owner warmly greeted us. I really appreciated the fact that he took the time to ask where we heard of Go! Go! And thanking us for choosing them. (I’m one of those people that really prefers to go to stores and cafes where the owners genuinely appreciate the business and make the experience great.) The food had just been made and smelled delicious – but we were taking it home to eat. The katsu was so perfectly crispy with an out of this world katsu sauce. My husband said it it was better than his favorite katsu he’d had elsewhere – and trust me, that’s a high compliment because my husband is *very* hard to please. My chicken/beef teriyaki combo was bomb; the beef was thin and tender, having been tossed in a heavenly teriyaki sauce that was perfectly seasoned and not too sweet. The chicken teriyaki was very tender and juicy, and being thigh meat something I don’t typically enjoy, I was pleasantly surprised. They loaded up the dish with lots of sticky white rice. In addition, a crisp, fresh side salad with a sweet, creamy dressing was included, as well as a free can of pop. The dinner was a little pricier than average (than other places we’ve eaten for teriyaki), but you get what you pay for here in addition to great, friendly service. We will definitely be back!

Kyoto Ka Downtown – Menu with Prices – 300 Madison Ave, Toledo

So this review is mainly based on service. Me and my friend got here at 1pm (1251 to be exact), for what we thought would be a quick lunch date. We were seated and the waitress took our drink order. We then asked her to give us a little bit of time so we could select something from the menu. A little bit of time to her meant coming back almost 20 minutes later to finally take our order. So we both ordered bento boxes. I had fried rice and my friend had white rice. Didn’t think it would take that long to make, as bento boxes just consist of your choice meat, California rolls, salad and rice. Really all pre-made items! However we didn’t get served till almost 2pm! We literally waited almost a whole hour for food! First of all, the restaurant was not even crowded. Second, it’s not like we ordered these extravagant meals that took a while to prepare! We literally ordered basic bento boxes. We were both so annoyed at the point our food finally came out ! Then, our waitress got our rice orders mixed up, didn’t put teriyaki sauce on my friends beef teriyaki and literally dowsed my (what I’m assuming is Tyson chicken) with sauce. Plus for food that took so long to make, it was on the cold side. The only reason why I am giving the review 3 stars and not 2 is because 1. The food was not bad, although basic, it didn’t taste horrible. 2. My waitress was the only one serving people in the restaurant so she was probably just overwhelmed with orders. Plus she did make sure to constantly refill our drinks whenever we were low. But overall, I would not come here again. Bento boxes are kind of a staple at most Japanese restaurants so there is really no reason to come here for one. Plus the presentation was kind of sloppy. And there is still no justification for the extremely long wait time we experienced.

Meiga Sushi – Menu with Prices – 1379 E Highland Ave, San Bernardino

Had dinner in the middle of the week here at the recommendation of my son. The restaurant was very clean and organized. At first I thought the music was too loud but once we set down at our booth it was perfect. You could have a conversation at your table but not hear other table conversations. Husband ordered seaweed salad, suchimi and an ice tea. I ordered Bentos box with teriyaki chicken, beef, gozas, salad and tempura. Orders arrive very quickly and the waitress was very attentive. The restaurant even gave us a few shrimp tempura for free. Hubby loved his meal and said the fish was very fresh and flavorful. Seaweed salad was tangy and the dressing was tangy. I enjoyed everything except the beef teriyaki (reason for the 4 stars) the beef was tuff and had a lot of grissel, which was a bummer. But the goza, chicken, rice and salad was very good. Their ginger dressing was excellent and I ended up asking for more and poured it over my rice. We ended the meal with free ice cream. Plan to eat there again.

I Love Teriyaki – Menu with Prices – 1850 Douglas Blvd #506, Roseville

The food was good, the service was fast. My rating is based on the integrity. I clearly see on the menu that the brown rice is extra (kinda weird since places such as Chipotle don’t charge). However, nowhere else is it mentioned that you will be charged when asking for “all vegetables” instead of rice and vegetables. My friend and I ordered the same thing (Teryaki) they asked for no veggies/sub a salad and brown rice ($7.99 + 1.25). Then there’s a charge for $3.29 because they ADD the salad as if you’re ordering a side salad. My order; Teriyaki with all Veggies, no rice. They charged me $2.25…. FOR NOT GETTING RICE?! The woman ringing me up quickly left when I asked for an itemized receipt (otherwise I was not going to get one). When I questioned her why I was charged an extra total of $5.54 for substituting a salad and skipping rice, she said because it’s extra to substitute. But that is not posted anywhere? When i continued to try and address my issue, she just walked away. So I advise you to watch how your order, make sure it’s clear what you’re asking and double check and request an itemized receipt.
