A small gem that is easy to find and a real bargain when it comes to quality and price. The Dragon Roll alone is worth the trip there. Lots of choices between Chinese, Japanese and Korean options. It is made to order not dished out of a pan under a heat lamp. Complimentary Mitsu Soup broth and tea. The place is very clean including the bathrooms. Service is friendly and efficient. Order at the counter and it is delivered to your table. This is a place where I am sure to return many times.

When in doubt or if you're having a bad day, you can't go wrong with a solid bento box. Especially in Seattle where the teriyaki is peak tier. Mama's Grill 'n Bento Teriyaki does not disappoint. My wife and I came here on a Friday night and we were a bit skeptical, since the restaurant was a ghost town. But we decided to give it a shot anyway. I ordered the chicken teriyaki combo and my wife ordered the chicken katsu bento. NOTE: There's teriyaki sauce placed at every table!! Don't forget to use it to lather your meats! So I was a bit meh with the teriyaki, as it was juicy but not saucy, and I noticed the bottle of teriyaki sauce literally at my last piece! What a shame - this would have been pretty solid with the sauce served with the dish. Everything else was pretty standard - good hefty portions at a reasonable price. My wife's katsu was crispy and overall also a pretty solid dish. So needless to say - this didn't blow me away. I wouldn't run here every night. But for a humble mom and pop shop, this was a really solid bento shop that easily satiated my craving. I have to come back to try the Kalbi one day! The free miso soup served in the restaurant was a nice bonus too!

my new favorite teriyaki place in the area! they have a lunch bento special, which is a good amount of food for an affordable price! i stopped by for some lunch and the owner was super sweet. yummy food
Recently stumbled upon this place in the plaza next to Domino's. The lady who greeted us was incredibly nice and checked on us during our stay. Tried their dragon roll, and it turned out to be one of the best sushi rolls I've had at a teriyaki joint. Highly recommend this spot! They also have complimentary miso soup + tea, perfect during this cold weather!!

Don't usually write reviews but the management here was really nice and helpful. The teriyaki is rlly good and priced really well for the portion. Definitely consider coming if you're in the area

Beef yakisoba - yum, chicken + beef teriyaki - yikes. I'm glad to see a new teriyaki shop so close to me and the beef yakisoba looked so good in photos I had to try it, and it's actually quite nice. The teriyaki though is pretty bad and I would definitely steer clear, the chicken + beef are tough + chewy and the teriyaki sauce is very generic. Still, teriyaki sauces are a matter of preference and people like all kinds. For me, in a city of god-tier teriyaki there's no excuse for settling (go try itadakimasu in U District, that guy is a god). May need to try the kalbi short ribs next.

Some of the best Teriyaki we’ve had in the Seattle area! Amazing orange chicken too. Very friendly and welcoming staff. We were happily surprised they came and let us know that the green tea and miso soup was included! Super clean and fast. Highly recommend this for lunch or dinner.

Found this hidden gem on my drive back home and am so happy I did. When I walked in, the workers were very friendly and the service was attentive. The restaurant itself was nice and clean. I ordered my usual from other teriyaki shops which was the General Tso's Chicken and Gyoza Combo. From all of the teriyaki shops I've been to, this was definitely one of the best I've been to. They prepare the food fresh and it was so flavorful. Will definitely come again!
