“Best take out Teriyaki on the hill. The food is Amazing & Affordable and the staff is Outstanding and so Polite. We love this place“

“Super cute little spot, very clean and the women taking orders was very nice. The food was hot and fresh, husband liked the chicken teriyaki. The shrimp tempura was crisp and crunchy on the outside and so tender on the inside. But let me tell you about the wonton soup!!! 10/10, five stars, highly recommended. The broth is glistening with flavor, the wontons are perfectly soft and the veggies are bright and not overcooked. So happy I stopped here, this wonton soup healed me. I wish I would have gotten more.“

“The short ribs were really good. Super tender and full of flavor. I thought they’d be expensive, but the prices felt fair, especially considering how everything’s gone up lately.

I also tried one of the wok dishes, and it was tasty. If you like chicken, they’ve got a few solid options worth checking out. Overall, a nice spot. I’d come back again.“

“No real wait, good food, very open restaurant (lots of space), I found the cook very entertaining. Don't know if the other patrons did. He had a very well put together dry humor routine. Had me chuckling out loud. Prices a little heavy, ok though for a good dinner and entertainment.“

“Small mom and pop style establishment with great food and a cozy atmosphere. The food is made to order with a quick turn around. They also have specials which is a big plus and you can make any of the dishes on there menu spicy by request! They have 3 levels of spicy for those who prefer a little fire ;)“

“I’ve been coming to this location for over 30 years. I haven’t been for a few years and my kid was really craving teriyaki so we made the drive to Puyallup for a little nostalgia.
I don’t think this place is managed by the same people. The place looks pretty much the same but possibly under new management.
The older woman who worked here for many years was not here. I didn’t recognize any of the usual staff. There is another woman behind the counter tonight. She was busy getting things done. She is loud and capable, but could rub people the wrong way. She means well, but I think things get lost in translation. For example this evening a customer ordered food through DoorDash and came to pick it up. The woman behind the counter tried to tell the customer it would be $20 cheaper to order through the store directly instead of paying for in-store pickup through DoorDash. The woman behind the counter came across loud and bossy. The customer left upset and obviously confused. The woman behind the counter said she just wanted her customers to not pay extra money.
The food tonight is different than it had been all the years I’ve known this place too. Everything is saucy, even the teriyaki. Still has a good taste and good sized portions, just different. The woman behind the counter was juggling online orders, phone orders, walk-in orders and table service. Our drinks were refilled twice and our food came out quick and hot. Bathrooms were clean, restaurant was clean.
Tonight is Thursday and there was a lot of business there.“

“The food was so delicious. Everything was piping hot and fresh. The service was very fast and friendly. Portions were huge. We got the appetizer sampler and 2 of us barely put a dent in it. But it was all very good. I loved the sweet potato, shrimp, and egg roll a lot. We also got teriyaki chicken and general tso's chicken. It was delicious!! We have tons of leftovers, which makes lunch tomorrow easy!! Sorry about the blurry pictures...we were is a dark room watching a movie.“

“We absolutely love this place! It’s run by a lovely older couple who cook everything themselves, the food is always fresh and full of flavor. The sushi is the best we’ve ever had, and the soups are amazing. Cozy atmosphere and truly made with love. Our favorite sushi spot!“

“Me and my boyfriend since we started dating back in 23 have always come here it’s our goto place! the people even remember our order now because we come here so often. We love the chicken teriyaki we come here at least once a week but this is our favorite place no where else compares and the food is the same delicious meal every time no inconsistency!“

“When my husband and I are out of town for his job, I always miss Suzy’s!! They set the bar high on all their food. 💚 we love you Suzy!“

“I used to come here almost every day when I worked across the river bridge in Fife, I would come when they had the two old guys back in the mid 2010's and their sushi is the greatest sushi in the world. I've never had better sushi in my life. It completely changed my perspective on sushi and they have always done an elite job on their products. Here's to hoping i can go back again some day, because you should go. It really is incredible!“

“Sushi and Wok exceeded my expectations!
The service was genuinely amazing — super kind, quick, and made the whole experience feel welcoming. I wasn’t expecting such quality sushi and Asian food in this location, but everything I ordered was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented.

The sashimi was melt-in-your-mouth good, and the specialty roll had the perfect balance of spicy and creamy. I also ordered a cooked dish with fried rice and beef — it was packed with flavor and cooked just right.

You can tell they care about both the food and the people. Clean place, great portions, and a solid mix of sushi and wok-style dishes. I’ll definitely be coming back next time I’m in the area!“

“Absolutely loved the sushi belt. Only reason I gave the food 4 stars is because some of the items on the belt were a little old. The service was amazing. I believe my server’s name was Levi. He was very attentive with all the customers in the restaurant and we had some good conversation as well. I will definitely recommend this restaurant to my friends and family.“

“great food, friendly atmosphere reasonable price“
