I ended up here on a recommendation from the barbers next door, and I’m genuinely thankful they pointed me this way. The man behind the grill has been making teriyaki for over 30 years, and it shows in every bite. No shortcuts, no gimmicks, just perfectly cooked, flavorful teriyaki done the way it’s supposed to be. I got the teriyaki chicken and it was hands down some of the best I’ve ever had. Juicy, smoky, rich sauce, and portions that actually fill you up. While I was there, a woman came in who said she had moved out of town. She went out of her way to stop here because it’s her favorite spot. That alone tells you everything you need to know. People don’t do that unless a place really means something to them. This isn’t some trendy place trying to reinvent teriyaki. It’s the kind of neighborhood spot that’s been doing it right for decades and doesn’t need to advertise. You walk in hungry and leave happy. Simple as that. This is one of those places you’re lucky to have nearby, and now that I’ve found it, I’ll be back regularly. If you’re even thinking about it, stop in and order. You won’t regret it.

Small, simple family run teriyaki place in the Seattle tradition- exactly as it should be. Good portions for the price- gyoza were fresh and the beef was great!

Food: big portions, quality taste! I was pretty satisfied with the meal. We got spicy chicken and the beef teriyaki. Beef was soft but I felt like there was a bigger portion of the chicken. Happy to get both again.
Service: expect to wait as there is usually a line for orders and the food is being made fresh. Highly highly recommend you call first then expect to wait ~15min give or take.
Atmosphere: community posters for events and old magazines to read while you wait. Lots of plants and kind of in an odd place next to a liquor store and gas station.
Overall, I’d come again for a filling casual meal where I’m not in a rush. Solid place on the radar 👍🏼

I tried this because of it having pretty good reviews and was very disappointed. Small portion of meat for the price and the fried rice was not great, most just pees in rice. Would not return here

Teriyaki joints like this one are essential, life-giving foundations for neighborhoods, and the city as a whole.
The rice was mealy. Waiting area was so very cold. Plastic containers are cheap. One cracked leaking sweet & sour sauce in bag and elsewhere. Food flavor was OK.

Food is delicious and portions plentiful. The spicy chicken teriyaki and pork fried rice are the best in Seattle. The gyoza are also delicious. They no longer offer dine-in since the pandemic, so only to-go orders. They recently switched to higher quality take-out containers which I really appreciate. I’ve been coming here for quite a while and have never been disappointed or hungry afterwards.

Food was fresh and very tasty! The chicken and beef were very tender, and obviously cut carefully with no fat or gristle. The eggrolls were delicious and crispy. The small space was covered in neat posters for local plays and other local information. Would 100% recommend

This is my go to lunch spot my house. Nice folks making yummy food. Always have enough for two meals ???
This is what teriyaki is supposed to be like. It’s flawless. I love these guys! I don’t care how quiet and reserved they are because they make the finest food around. Love them!
