The prices here are amazing. So is the taste of the food. The chicken teriyaki is absolutely delicious. It is very tender, juicy and soft yet well cooked. The beef tastes way better than the one in the yoshinoya. The prices are so good here. Customer service is awesome too. Food comes out fast and they give you big portions.

I’ve lived in the area over 20 years and never saw this place. I guess I’m too accustomed to going to my regular spots in Montrose, but now this is going to be one of them. Teriyaki bowls done perfectly, with sides available if you need more to fill you up. With today’s prices, they offer such a great deal. I was so hungry I forgot to take pictures before starting to eat. I’ll be back again soon. Quick, easy, tasty and affordable.

Still lacking on the service part a but. Be prepared to ask for everything extra you need, refills. Napkins, etc. They will not check on you until it comes time to pay the bill.

Partially my fault, I upgraded from a bowl to a plate. I really wanted a salad. They were not included.

Good portions and food is tasty . They make your food after you order so its fresh. Small dining area, so if your feeding a group, order your food to go.

We love this place! We have been coming here for years and the quality is still stellar. Freshly made when you arrive. The chicken and beef teriyaki bowl with veggies is our favorite. We continue to come back here again and again.

I ordered 2 lunch specials, a dinner meal (beef ribs) and an order of California rolls. The woman who answers the phone cannot understand the English language very well and it made it difficult to order. I had to start my order over several times because if I asked a question about any part of a meal, she would assume that I wanted it and added it to the order. It discouraged me from ordering anything else since I had no menu to order from. Also, I at the end of my order I asked if everything (each item) came with salad and she replied yes. I even told her how good the salad is and she giggled and said thank you. My son picked up my order for me and when I looked, there was no salad. I called and spoke with the same woman who had no problem speaking English well enough to understand me and to tell me that not one item I ordered came with a side salad. There are way too many Teriyaki restaurants nearby to put up with that sort of thing. The only reason i gave 2 stars is because the food is decent as Teriyaki goes. Next time I will try another spot. I dont feel like going through that again. As I think about it, I better check my receipt!

This is one of my favorite spots in Montrose if I want to eat something real quick and dont want to spend a lot of money.The prices are very reasonable and the portion sizes are generous. I always get the beef and chicken bowl with veggies on the side and it is plenty of food for me.The place is very small and of course it does get busy during peak lunch times, but so does every other restaurant on Honolulu so you should expect to wait a little bit.
