Sunny Teriyaki — Restaurant in Bremerton

What's for dinner? Sunny's Teriyaki! So we opted for some teriyaki this evening. Since our last visit, nearly ten years ago, I will honestly say that I wasn't inspired to eat there again after last time. But it was time to give Sunny's Teriyaki a try again.

After looking through their menu online four times, I noticed they offered several heavenly-sounding items. Not only do they have teriyaki and combo meals, but they also provide a hearty choice of soups, sushi rolls, appetizers, lunch specials, sides, and Chinese wok meals. Yup, unless you know what you want, it will take you several glances to decide. Their menu was slightly more extensive than what I expected; still, there were choices to be had. I knew for certain that I really wanted some teriyaki, and my husband was craving egg rolls!

I ordered ahead for pickup; in fact, Sunny's Teriyaki is relatively close to where I live.

I ordered the chicken teriyaki and a side of egg rolls. The chicken teriyaki came with white rice (we substituted for fried rice for an additional $2) and a side salad with ranch dressing; the side of eggrolls was a total of two small egg rolls. I feel they must have made part of my order early; my Teriyaki was barely warm, but the two egg rolls were hot; nonetheless, the Teriyaki was flavorful and saucy with large chicken pieces and there was plenty of it.

Now, about the rice, what can I say? It wasn't my favorite fried rice. The rice did have a background flavor of smokiness; I was trying really hard to figure out why that would be, perhaps how they cooked it or what they cooked it on?? It wasn't overwhelming, but enough of the taste to linger.

Onto the eggrolls, the taste was ok, but the size or lack of size was disappointing. I think we were given spring rolls and not eggrolls; I have never eaten an eggroll so small, I did not measure, but if I had to guess, the size was probably four inches long and about a half to three-quarters of an inch in diameter. The price of $4.50 in comparison to what we had was reasonably expensive. Because they didn't satisfy the hunger for eggrolls, I ended up buying a couple of eggrolls today from Safeway, and they were a little over six inches long and around two inches in diameter.

Last but not least, the salad. Crispy fresh iceberg lettuce mix with ranch dressing. I am still confused on why ranch dressing seems to be the "go-to" salad dressing around here; I wish places would offer at least two dressing choices. My husband's exact words on the salad were, "it's a side salad with ranch dressing!"

Moving on to the building, which was in ok shape, the drive-through menu board could have used some help. However, I fully understand that many of our locally owned small businesses are teetering on closing or having a tough time staying open, let alone remodeling something right now, so that is easily forgivable!

The lady that finalized my order was smiley and friendly; it's always nice to see someone that looks happy, especially during these Covid times!

Sunny's Teriyaki has been around for a very long time, and it's nice to see a small business still surviving after all of this time. What I can say for sure is that you should try their Chicken Teriyaki!!!!

"Please keep supporting all of our locally owned small businesses; they are an essential entity in our community; we thrive when they thrive, and please be safe and kind to all living...

I gotta say first of all I LOVE that this is drive-thru terryaki place. You don't see many of those and its nice to have a drive-thru that is not fast food or coffee. Expands your options if you don't want to get out of your car.

I will say thought the location of the menu board and speaker box is a bit confusing. Looking at the building from the street enter the from the right side of the building. Then keep driving past the building and just beyond the building on the right hand side is the entrance to a tiny turn around which is where the menu and speaker board are.

I ordered the Orange Chicken with Fried Rice. And 2 egg rolls

The orange chicken was actually amazing. Not your run of the mill orange chicken but actually mixed in with some veggies which also took on the orange flavor and I loved that.

The Fried rice was a bit bland and honestly burnt. However a positive was that it looked like the rice they used was a bit bigger grain than the normal fried rice you might get at another place.

The Egg Rolls were good but are the size of Spring Rolls. But the flavor was great.

All in all good experience. Will be back

I ordered through UberEats. We got a potsticker appetizer, chicken teriyaki bento box and the curry chicken. First off, the lid to the gyoza sauce wasn't even on all the way, so they were soggy and the bag was a mess by the time we got it. In the bento box the chicken was completely dry... even when it was drowning in the sauce. The tempura mix had so much breading on it that it tasted raw. The worst part though was the curry chicken. The sauce was almost as if they took a bag of premade curry sauce and dumped it over some chicken, mushrooms and green peppers. It was almost the consistency of jello. The green peppers were completely overpowering and even partially raw. I upgraded to fried rice and the carrots in it were burnt and it wasn't completely mixed. I had numerous chunks of white rice in it. In my experience, it was the first and probably last time I will...
