We have gone everywhere for Chinese food in Tacoma but THIS is the best place. We stopped going to other places. If you're craving Chinese food, eat here. My favorite is General Tsaos and the egg rolls.

Locals put me onto this stop while I was in town. The lady who runs this place is very nice.
Best Teriyaki I've had. They don't play around with their lunch size. I ordered a Mango Milk Tea with Rainbow Jelly to drink. It's more of a smoothie than a milk tea, but it's delicious.
Not sure what lunch runs around Tacoma, but $20 for this felt like a solid deal.

56th Teriyaki is a solid local spot for satisfying, no-frills Japanese comfort food. The portions are generous, the prices are fair, and the food is consistently hot and flavorful. The chicken teriyaki is a standout — tender, well-grilled, and served with plenty of sauce, rice, and a fresh salad.
The menu also includes options like yakisoba, gyoza, and beef short ribs, all made with care and served quickly. The staff are friendly and efficient, making it an easy choice for both takeout and casual dine-in.
If you're in Tacoma and craving hearty, classic teriyaki, 56th Teriyaki delivers dependable flavor and great value.

I haven't had teriyaki this good in 2 years, I had to leave a review in the middle of eating. Prices seemed a little high, but the portions were very large, and I will certainly be back.

The lady at the counter was so nice!
We tried this place for the first time today - it is exactly what I want when I want delicious neighbourhood teriyaki: a hole in the wall that focuses on their food and keeps prices reasonable. Very delicious and will go toe to toe with any teriyaki place on the WA coast.
We will definitely be back :)

This little shop feels like a hole in the wall, the lady who served us was really sweet and caring, checked on us as well.
Food was stellar, I got spicy chicken teriyaki and it had the right kick, if you like spicy you might want a little more spice but the flavor is amazing.
Food is always so delicious!! I always get their chicken teriyaki. I’ve tried their orange chicken. It’s good too and beef! Today I finally tried their veggie yakisoba, it was fresh, hot and yummy! I’m going to try their burger and fries on my next trip!
