Tokyo Stop is a hidden gem! The curry and katsu dishes are packed with flavor, portions are generous, and the service is always fast and friendly. Great quality for the price—definitely a go-to spot for Japanese comfort food!

The Spork and Truth
Came here a couple weeks ago. I’m from Seattle where we seem to have teriyaki joints in every single strip mall. I was craving some good teriyaki and found this place.
I ordered the spicy chicken teriyaki over white rice.
Overall, it was pretty good. Lots of good flavor from the sauce, but I definitely felt like the meat could have been less tough and less burnt. Also, maybe just me, but I’m not a fan of “spicy” meaning a sprinkling of chili powder, but rather additional spice incorporated into the sauce.

This place was such a treasure to find. Intimate seating area. I really like when you can tell a place has been here for a while. We got the lunch box g, chili chicken with crab puffs and egg roll that comes with a drink, and the teriyaki chicken and beef plate. The chili chicken was so good and flavorful, I had no need to add any sauces at all, the teriyaki plate was more savory than sweet, but not bad at all, so good! . It came out to $27, so if you’re thinking about going to Panda Express, I’d recommend you come here first. The portion size is simple to choose from and gives you a bang for your buck.
Edit: I forgot to add, but someone came in and asked for “the usual” and I was NOT trying to eavesdrop but the cashier said it loud enough that I heard it. If I wanted to know more about this place, I think that gave me an even better view of this place.

Its where we get our chicken katsu curry fix from.
This was my first time at Tokyo Stop. The teriyaki chicken I had was the worst I've ever had. I ordered the regular size and all-white meat. The chicken was so dry and overcooked that I couldn't eat it. I just left and threw the food in the trash. Other than that, the service was fast, and it was clean inside.

The food and service are amazing, and the prices are super reasonable. I eat here at least once per week (and sometimes more)
This place was absolutely amazing. I was looking for a quick protein packed lunch one day and had a hankering for some teriyaki. This place was 5 minutes from my work and I can't believe I had never been before! I ordered a large spicy teriyaki chicken, and it was so flavorful. The chicken is perfectly seasoned with just the right amount of sauce, plenty of rice, and veggies to go along with it. And the place was busy - but they got the food out fast! It's always a great sign! Will definitely be going back!

I cannot tell you how much I love this place it's a go to atleast once a week always amazing staff and good pricing on lunch specials. Food is always amazing my go to is orange chicken with noodles and teriyaki sauce I'd reccomend this place to everyone.
My dad and I used to come here all the time (no longer live in Arizona) and I can 100% confidently say this is the best restaurant ever (specifically chicken yakisoba and teriyaki chicken) also they have really yummy California rolls. I promise you won’t regret coming here! I miss it all the time! Prices are very fair too! Would give it 6 stars if I could!

I had a delightful experience at Tokyo Stop, located at 1335 W University Dr #6 in Tempe, AZ, while waiting for my listing appointment at 3:00 PM today. With my stomach growling, I decided to pop in for a quick lunch, and I’m so glad I did!
I ordered the #44, which includes their delicious chicken curry and chicken katsu. The curry was rich and flavorful, embodying the essence of traditional Japanese curry, while the katsu was perfectly crispy and satisfying. Both dishes were a treat for the taste buds! As I’m mindful of my rice intake due to type 2 diabetes, I appreciated the balance in the meal.
This was my first visit to Tokyo Stop, and I was impressed by the cozy atmosphere and friendly service. The restaurant is known for its affordable and tasty Japanese cuisine, featuring a variety of favorites like yakisoba, teriyaki chicken, and miso ramen, all praised for their fantastic flavors. The katsu is particularly popular, known for its crispy texture and generous portions, making it a favorite among locals.
I’m excited to return and explore more of their menu options. I also noticed a charming Japanese pastry shop next door, which I plan to visit to satisfy my sweet tooth.
What a yummy day it has been!

Enjoyed the lunch here. Super friendly service. A bit of a wait although not that busy. Had the pork katsudon and the beef teriyaki. Both were tasty and large portions. Great location in Tempe. We'd return.
Phenomenal food with lots of variety!
