I believe Customer Service determines whether the business (in this case, Yoshinoya) will thrive or receive low review ratings from customers.
I have loved Yoshinoya since 1994 when I discovered it. I was surrounded by this brand until we moved out of Los Angeles. Now, it is a treat to find a store. You'll just have to be weary of the reviews.
I observed while in this location. Employees were chatting with one another and when I walked in, I was not greeted, no one looked at me in the eyes... basically... I was ignored. I was looking up at the menu board when this guy asked, "how can I help you?"
I gave him my order: the COMBO XL, both BEEF. That person did not look at me, not a single time. There was no validation of my order.
I waited, standing 8ft away from the counter... for a good 10-12minutes, I believe. My order was done. The guy did not call it out... for the first time, he looked at me and motioned with the bagged dinner that I can now pick it up... without a smile, not even a thank you for patronizing their store.
Sigh It feels like your favorite food has been hijacked by poor service. I can say so because I worked at one national food chain while in college, and we were acutely trained in customer service for successful retention of patrons.
I pray the owner/franchisee of this location re-train...

Why pay more when you get the same amount of food or in this case even less then before . I mentioned it the last time I ordered it to them that they didn’t put more meat like a XL is supposed to have . They put the veggies seperate like a xl , but put the same amount of meat . What a rip off and the guy front is also rude as well. Everytime I come to pick up my online order he just acts like I’m not standing there . I don’t have this issue at any other Yoshinoya . I’m not that guy to post bad reviews I just go to another place , but was willing to give them a second and 3rd chance and it’s the same results everytime . I’m going to take my...
