I ordered a vegetable tempura bowl, which was extremely generous! The pieces of vegetables were huge. It was pretty heavy with the grease and that’s what ultimately removed a star from my review. I also ordered the chicken teriyaki bowl. I asked to add vegetables and learned that it’s not an additional price because they do it by weight. I eat Flame Broiler regularly and this is similar. The sauce at this restaurant is much lighter and the chicken is probably not as intense in flavor, but the bowl is very good. I would order it again.

Read moreThis is not your ordinary non japanese owned teriyaki spot that uses fake high fructose corn syrup teriyaki and long grain rice. This spot is 100% authentic Japanese teriyaki!

I can tell that they use japanese imported products cause I used to work at Marukai, aka Tokyo Central, when I was younger and can taste it.
The portions are big and the teriyaki sauce is not overly sweet and overpowering like some spots.
This is a family owned restaurant that's been here since 1985 and the quality of their food and hospitality proves why! Really tastes like home made food.
Ill definitely be returning if I have work...

Our family of four ordered a bunch of stuff to share during lunch among the many regulars: Dumplings: Only item I wouldn’t order again. Nothing special and not housemade. Fried Chicken Bowl with Veggies: Great karaage style chicken that is moist, flavorful, and perfectly crispy. Chashu Bowl: UH MAY ZING!!! Don’t sleep on the pork. Chicken Teriyaki Bowl:...
