Mama's Teriyaki — Restaurant in Tacoma

Update Horrible food and service now. This place went down hill. I ordered short ribs, yakisoba, egg rolls and gyoza, like I have dozens of times. The portions were tiny compared to the past. Only ten ribs. No side salads. forgot all the sauces (gyoza, salad dressing and katsu WHICH I ORDERED AND PAID EXTRA FOR). They forgot my kimchi altogether (which I also paid extra for). The food was dry, chicken was rubbery and the beef was tough and chewy, the rice was gross and it was NOTHING like I've ordered in the past. This was 1-star teriyaki and I paid over $70 for my order. This was $5 teriyaki at best. I'll never order from here again. Terrible.

All of this cost me almost $13 for two scoops of rice, a few pieces of gyoza, and half a...

As a county employee, I spend a lot of time eating out, so I choose wisely, and this spot has always delivered A1 meals. until today, (8/2/24) I've always LOVED the food here, but today surprised me and their actions could have very well caused severe internal injuries or worse. I ordered a takeout for "Robinson", (Broccoli Beef) while eating and enjoying my meal, I bit into a twisted piece of wire, about one inch in length. I was speechless, at how irresponsible of an act this was for a long-standing business. This was completely careless and unbelievably reckless of any restaurant. I'm going to wait and see how long it takes for the owner/manager to reach out to address this before I take it...
