Asia Ginger Teriyaki Restaurant — Restaurant in Seattle

I enjoyed a quick weekday lunch here and have a favorable first impression. This place is no frills, you order at the counter and food is brought to your table. Service was efficient, kind and courteous. The interior is spare but very clean though the entrance/exterior had given me pause when I first passed by. There were several folks from the neighborhood dining in but many seemed to be getting takeout. The teriyaki chicken was excellent (actually the best thus far I’ve had here in Seattle) nicely charred yet tender and moist with well prepared steam rice - Sauces are at the table which gives you more flexibility on how to dress your chicken.

Very disappointed. I called in my order for a chicken teriyaki and the person who picked up didn't even ask my name. Upon receiving my food I opened the take home box and noticed the chicken was past charbroiled the rice was super hard and all in all the food was cold as well. If I wanted disappointment on a higher level I would've kept waiting for my dad to come home. TL:DR I suggest you save yourself the trouble and go to the little gyro house around the corner. Their lunch special comes with a drink and some delicious lentil soup...
