10 Best Japanese Restaurants in Auburn

“Friendly service, food is great, plenty of selections; Korean, Chinese, and Japanese foods in one place. I had the spider roll and the Mongolian Beef. I didn’t order the combos on purpose but who knew the Japanese food and Chinese food complimented each other very well. Talking about a great service, my wife order the sesame balls for a dessert. 2 of 5 were a bit under cooked somehow. We broke them a part but didn’t eat them. One other staffs walked by and asked if we didn’t like. My wife told her those 2 seemed like they are not full cooked so we didn’t want to eat them but we are okayed. She then insisted that she asked the chef to make a fresh batch of 5 for us. This time they were perfectly cooked. I was impressed with her and felt very appreciative. I recommend this place if you like delicious food and something quick.“

“We love sushi and this place did not disappoint 😊“

“I haven’t been here since probably 2 years and I went yesterday and got a ‘moms plate’ which is essentially a family meal and I was pleasantly surprised with the amount of goodies you get with it for only 50$ (3 large plates of entrees with fried rice and lots of side dishes&soup) it’s supposed to feed 4 but it definitely can feed more than that. And my favorite sweet and sour chicken has gotten much better since the last time I’ve gone, they must’ve started using better chicken as it was a lot fresher and not dry. Owners are extremely kind and I’m always greeted with a big smile, certified auburn classic and I’ll be coming back more often!!“

“We just ate here for my last night in town because, as a PNW native, every trip home I need to get my teriyaki fix. We went here on my brother’s recommendation and boy, it did NOT disappoint!

My brother and I got the spicy chicken and beef combo. Delightful and pleasantly spicy. If you don’t like spice I wouldn’t get the spicy version but if you do enjoy a tasty amount of heat, this is spot on. Not too hot, certainly flavorful.

The rest of the family got chicken teriyaki, veggie yakisoba, and the chicken and katsu combo. We all shared a plate of gyoza. I tried most everything and all of it was delightful.

My favorite part about the place though was the people working. They were both so kind and remembered my brother even though he hadn’t been able to come by in some time. They bonded with my 4 year old nephew quickly and were wonderfully genuine in their actions. They were very quick to help with anything we needed (nothing crazy, we spilled some water and they came out with a pen so we could label our boxes without us asking for one. Just very helpful in general).

Consider me a long time fan. I will come back any time I am in the area! Thank you so much for wonderful service and phenomenal food!

Parking: Ginger Teriyaki is in a strip mall so parking is right in front of the restaurant.

Kid-friendliness: Very kid friendly!“

“Excellent food here.Kung pao chicken was fried perfectly and a great combination of sweet and spicy. Just like my Chinese mother in law makes.Chicken teriyaki has a grilled taste and was also excellent.Portions are large.Extra teriyaki sauce at the table, so you can add extra sauce and flavor.The egg roll was massive and delicious.The kids meal is also an excellent value and delicious.“

“I like here lol. With rising costs I get it portion sizes much smaller than before but still reasonable for what you pay. You all want some good yakisoba then go here and enjoy but remember as with all places nowadays portion sizes smaller lol“

“I moved out of Seattle and still think about this place. Is it gourmet? Nope. It is a metric ton of chicken and rice, and it is tasty. The customer service is...well they take your order and money and you get food, that is it. Perfect. I gave this place a 3.5 star review, but it is definitely a 3.5 worthy place, and if you know anything about Teriyaki in Seattle, 3.5 stars is the best spot for the best Teriyaki, because food is made with love not manners and customer service voice!“

“OMG the woman that works up front is AMAZING!!!! So sweet and kind. She literally chats with all her customers and genuinely cares for everyone that walks through the door like a mother would. ??? She even bagged up all our leftovers for us with a smile.
Fast service and the Food is excellent. The red sauce with the egg rolls was so good and the T5 Chicken Breast Teriyaki is my new fave. We are Traveling.... but if we're in this neck of the woods I would definitely go back. Thank you for the GREAT experience.“

“I go here during lunch any time I'm in the area. Hands down the best teriyaki spot I've been to in Washington. The portion sizes are great and the food is brought out rather quickly. I usually get the L2 combo as it's very reasonably priced and tastes amazing.“

“Not good…..this place used to be a jewel..but to piggyback off of C.A.’s comment, I had ordered the teriyaki & Garlic chicken….it looked AND tasted like it was cooked in dish water..disgusting!!!….from the comments I guess there must be either new owners or workers or both…but they better get their act together or they will be out of business…I’ve been here more then a few times (although not lately, but today)…never had a problem and the food was good….until today.“
