With so many teriyaki joints around, sometimes you don't know what you will encounter, yet Kasai Teriyaki Bowl on 15335 Hawthorne Blvd is an absolute winner. I had called ahead to see if we needed a reservations for 12 people for 2 days in advance. Wow, when we had arrived 15 minutes prior to our reservations on our reservation, everything was set aside for us when we had arrived. It was Friday evening, of course, packed, yet the service was very professional - timely and smooth. Boy, the food was awesome. I am from SoCal via Honolulu and Japan. I know when I taste a good Teriyaki! Many of us had Teriyaki Chicken Combination. Everyone gave perfect 10! The sauce was flavorful, not too sweet...light and delicious. Chicken was plentiful and the salad was fresh as you can get. I loved it so much, I had ordered 12 orders of take out for the same group (Bible Study Group) in 3 weeks; again, it was a grand slam! The owner of the place had called us 10 minutes prior to our promised arrival time and met us front of the restaurant parking lot.....everything neatly boxed and prepared fresh. Highest recommendations to ya'll if you want a great Teriyaki Bowl served...
Read moreKasai Teriyaki is in the same plaza as Manila Wok, House of Donuts, and Dirty South Soul Food. (Across the street almost from El Pollo Inka). The parking lot here is a little small, but we didn't have trouble finding parking.
When I got here, I ordered the chicken with avocado (#3). The prices were good, but the avocado was sliced pretty thin, and there wasn't as much chicken in it as I would have liked. The portion seemed big because there was a ton of rice in this.
Next time I go, I would probably order the same thing, but make it double meat and double avocado. And, they offer brown rice for 50 cents more.
The restaurant is small, there are only two tables that seat four people each, and one table which seats two people. There wasn't anyone there when we arrived so we were able to dine in, but I can see this also being a takeout place.
The food arrived pretty fast, the chicken was a little overcooked, but I would...
Read moreOne of the best teriyaki spots in the area. Fast service and delicious food are what they're good at. Been going here a few years now and never had a bad experience. I will say that it's probably one of my favorite places to eat in South Bay on Saturday for their $4.99 chicken teriyaki bowl! There's usually parking in the lot, but you can park curbside along Hawthorne if it's packed. Calling ahead to place your order for pickup seems to be the most popular, but there's a few tables inside if you want to sit down for lunch. Overall, I gotta give this place a solid 10. The food and facility is clean, there's never any weird bits in my chicken, and the flavor is perfect! You have to check them out if you're local or pass...
