I don't think I've ever actually had a katsu Don before and by all the reviews I had to try it! Seeing it was egg with onion over rice with chicken reminded me of a dish my mom would make, not quite like this but very similar. This was really good and tasty! Good portion as I could've finish it all but leftovers are great! Chicken was nice and tender too. Service was friendly and efficient and several people dining inside too which is always a great sign! Can't wait to go back and try more things from their very extensive menu options!

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Looks like a small place from the outside, but there's tons of seating inside.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Definitely a spot to bring the family or if you want a quick bite or if you want to catch up with a friend.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] They have yummy drinks to choose from, they have the sodas and glass bottles that are so delicious, great food options even sushi is good! Service was amazing. We could not have been happier. The quality of the food was so good.

I feel bad I haven't written a review to one of my favorite Japanese food experiences for the last two decades! Tried this place when I was only 16 (now 37), and fell in love with the delicious food and stellar customer service from every employee that has ever worked there. Since I've been here through the years, every employee I've interacted with has always provided outstanding customer service, always creating a welcoming environment for all guests. I really enjoy a lot of items on their menu. Highly recommend their Mixed Tempura, Sukiyaki Bowl and Super Bowl or even the Mini Bowl menu items. They always give you a decent amount of protein to go with your carbs! Not sure or maybe picky? Just grab their 3 item combo and taste a little of their main items. Overall, love this little hole in the wall spot and will keep on coming back whenever I'm in the neighborhood.

Chicken breast and steak combo

My family absolutely loves this restaurant. Japanese quality food indeed. Customer service always on point. We have great dine in memories, for sure at Bamboo Teri House Today my meal was to go. Chicken and Steak combo. The best. Cost point tooThank you Bamboo

The missus lunch
Cor V.

Bamboo Teri House is a winner. When in Long Beach we like to stop here for a quick lunch.. they have great lunch specials.. the lovely missus tells me this was her favorite place during her college and medical career days. She has her Teri chicken and noodles with vegetable tempura and a salad... my tasty meal consisted of chicken Teri on a bed of white rice, a couple slices of CA roll and chicken on a stick over noodles. It was yummy and very friendly service. There will be no hesitation if the missus chooses Bamboo Teri House.

Firecracker was nothing but rice! Disappointment

Came here for the second time now. Looking at my first review I thought maybe it's better this time. Well it was ok. Wish it was better but I was dissatisfied with my roll. I guess I won't order rolls here.

Bamboo Teri House has been serving the Long Beach community for over forty years and it's something that we need to continue to support! While they do have sushi rolls that you could sample at a discount for happy hour before 5pm, it's the teriyaki and Japanese Curry that I crave from here. For a little over $30 on a Tuesday, I was able to get (1) a "Funtastic Tempura Bowl" ($12.60) for shrimp/vegetable tempura, teriyaki chicken, rice, and noodles, (2) a teriyaki chicken bowl ($12.50), and (3) a plate of vegetable tempura with six pieces ($6). This was easily enough for my wife and I, and we felt that it was a great value. I intend to take my coworkers here with me on weekday happy hour before 5pm for some appetizers and $14 Sapporo pitchers. Overall, I think they have pretty filling rice bowls, and I hope that this place stands for another forty years; however, that will depend on the community continuing to support it!

Went a second time after I fractured my wrist, and the food did not disappoint. I honestly think it has a healing spell as my wrist was feeling good. GOATED service & atmosphere. Will come again

Was visiting niece in hospital and her favorite food is a crunchy roll. Looked up some places near hospital this one popped up and it was delicious. Roll was good size I also ordered a beef bowl best one I have tried yet. Place has a good happy hour. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Inside it's spacious plenty of seating.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Service is great will def be coming back when I'm in the area.

I went to Bamboo Teri House yesterday after getting my nails done next door and decided to grab something quick to eat. I ordered the two-combo plate with noodles and salad, and went with the chicken katsu and ginger chicken. The food was pretty good. Nothing super fancy or over-the-top, but definitely a solid meal for a decent price. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The place was actually pretty packed when I went, which is usually a good sign.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I ordered to go, so I can't speak much about the full dine-in service. But the employees at the register were very helpful and really nice, especially when making recommendations. One thing to know is parking is not great. There's very limited parking in that area, so you may have to circle a bit or park nearby. I'd recommend it if you're looking for a good, casual meal that won't break the bank. Flavor Profile (for reference): Umami-forward (savory, salty depth) Acidic or bright (tangy + sour) Pungent & intense (spicy + bitter notes) Drink Preference (for reference): Bitter-forward cocktails Balanced acidity Light sweetness only, not overly sugary

The menu had such a wide variety of Japanese cuisine, from sushi, to katsu, to donburi, there's something for everyone! Loved the modern clean vibes of the interior. They start you off with complimentary miso soup, which was full and rich (a bit salty for my liking but that's just me). We also ordered a plate of nigiri as our appetizer, and the fish quality was really fresh. I ordered the chicken katsu plate for myself, and my was it delicious. I've never tasted katsu so light even though it's typically fried, and love the sauce they paired the katsu with. It was almost like a mustard? But it wasn't too overpowering or anything. We finished the night with the tempura ice cream, and let me tell you, this is a MUST. I honestly just expected them to throw some panko on top of a scoop of ice cream, but Te-Buru's take is (somehow) baking a tempura crust right onto a giant scoop of ice cream and then cutting up the scoop into wedges. The ice cream surprisingly did not melt all that quickly either, and the matcha flavor was on point. Our servers were quick to meet our requests, nothing super outstanding but made the meal pretty seamless. Prices I think were pretty standard except for their sushi. Those are bit on the steeper side, but again, their fish quality is really good. For parking, they do have a small lot, but there's also street parking and parking in the neighborhood behind the restaurant. You'd be delulu not to try Te-Buru!

Scallop Sashimi was delicious, but looked smaller compared to my previous visit. The Spicy Albacore was perfect and will continue to be my go to. The hand roll was obese and stuffed with Yellowtail. It was very satisfying. I also enjoyed the sweet and savory combination of the Bikini roll. The service was excellent and there was plenty of open seating. I enjoy the atmosphere, energy, and music while dining. I'd say Yume is Top 5 sushi in LB. They also have locations in Pico Rivera and Manhattan Beach with their own specials & appetizers.

My wife and I shared a variety of different rolls and I had a black truffle topped eel. We had a tempura California, spicy tuna, philly, and a cucumber wrapped roll. All excellent. They had some really creative cocktails too. Honestly it would have been 5 stars if it wasn't for the awkward kitchen situation. After we sat down and they brought out our drinks they informed us the kitchen was closed for cooked meals. I came for sushi so I didn't care but my wife was upset and stayed for me only. Every table they would wait for drinks to arrive which in my opinion was a sneaky tactic to keep people from leaving. They should have been up front before seating customers. Sushi was 5 stars all the way so I will definitely be back.

The lightly torched skin gives each bite a nice, firm textural contrast against the delicate, tender meat. The yuzu garnish puts it over the top! My other favorites are Striped Jack and Hokkaido Scallop. My friend, who doesn't really like eating fish, loves their Double S Roll (tempura shrimp & fried scallops.) The service has been mostly wonderful. We did run into one hiccup when we found some hard, jagged black chunks in the Double S Roll that we couldn't eat. They looked and felt like metal or charred debris, but the staff insisted they were black sesame seeds. Otherwise, the staff has been upbeat and super friendly. If you're looking for your next unforgettable bite, do yourself a favor and order the Golden Eye Snapper!

The TNT Roll was amazing, but I had to remove the Jalapeño due to it kicking my ass. I'll definitely return because I had an exciting experience.

My boyfriend's brother did the ordering since he's been here a lot. He ordered: Peruvian Cebiche: which was the catch of the day, tiger milk, ahi Amarillo, concha, and sweet potato. It was so delicious! I believe the catch of the day was either scallop or white fish which was in the tiger milk and ahi Amarillo sauce which was a sour like sauce which pairs well with the fish. It was also a great dipping sauce for the other sushi we got. If I could, I would have slurped the whole thing (the sauce) lol. Blue Fin Sashimi: with kizami wasabi and special soy sauce. If you have tried blue fin you are missing out. The sashimi just melts in your mouth and has such an easy chew to it. Sushi Nikkei Tasting (8 pc sushi): consists of 2 pcs of sweet salmon (parrillera sauce), tuna power (parrillera sauce, aji Amarillo, and chalaquita), Parmesan scallops, and Asian shiromi (white fish, Asian sauce, quinoa pop, and lemon). My boyfriend and I had 1 pc each. The salmon and Parmesan scallops were my favorite. My boyfriend's favorite was the Asian shiromi and tuna power. All the toppings complimented each other so well. Who knew?! Acebichado: which was a specialty roll with crispy shrimp, avocado topped with tuna, acebicado sauce, togarashi, and green onion Dusty roll: which was another specialty roll with crispy shrimp, avocado topped with octopus in ninja sauce, Parmesan, and tare OBA roll: which was another specialty roll that had crispy salmon, avocado topped with salmon , parrillera, jalapeno sauce, and chalaquita All the rolls were good and the different sauces complimented each other and the fish.

Was disappointed in the service at first since we have 5 people including my 1 1/2 year old son. Host said he only had a table for 4 which I figured was fine with a high chair When I asked the server for the high chair the host ran over saying we could not have it because it was in the way of the server. There was another table on the other end that wasn't in the "walkway" and host said it's reserved even though it was still only for 4. Wasn't extremely busy so got frustrated with this response as at first there was no solution provided. About 1-2 minutes later they offered to combine a third table to "reroute" the server path and we were able to eat with my child. Server and rest of staff were great and turned the experience around. Food was delicious including octopus fire, bluefin tuna tasting , Ginza Maki roll , Bixby Roll and the Acebichado. We were so hungry we didn't get to take a picture but that alone should tell you how good it was.

But I had heard so many great things about HiroNori that I wanted to try it anyways. My brother especially kept hyping them up, and he LOVES ramen. And I'm glad I decided to try them out! While HiroNori is a SoCal chain, it still feels like a mom and pop restaurant. The crispy rice with tuna was EXCELLENT! Everything you want from crispy rice and spicy tuna. The tonkatsu was delicious! Great depth of flavor. They bring you garlic and spicy paste on the side. I had to add A LOT of spicy paste to get it up to the level I wanted, but while at other restaurants I've lost the broth flavor when adding too much spice, the spicy paste just enhanced the tonkatsu broth. And the pork in the tonkatsu - truly next level. This is probably the best pork I've ever had in a ramen dish. The noodles were also fantastic with the perfect amount of bite. I loved my jammy egg as well. The restaurant itself is smaller, with fun lighting. There is a parking lot which is great. They do not have tipping, instead they have a service charge of a little over 17%. Definitely worth it!

Salmon skin salad: if you like salmon skin, this is yummy. A perfect crunch seasoned really well to complement the bed of greens. Furikake fries: thinly cut potato's with furikake seasoning paired with a sweet mustard dipping sauce. I would have enjoyed more Furikake on the fries, but that's just me. This place has real wasabi if you ask for it instead of the watered down stuff you usually get. It's actually pretty good! Overall great food and great service. I'd come back for sure!

And eating sushi spots through Yelp is even more difficult because imo what people think is good sushi is subjective lol. I am pretty darn picky, I want the fish fresh period, and the size of the bites correct. This experience was for my bday and I had 3 teenagers with me so we opted for rolls because this isn't AYCE and I didn't feel like dropping $500 on nigiri! Rolls are a bit more cost effective especially when my son and I are eating. The rolls we got: PS Roll, Candy Cane, Caterpillar, Tsunami, Lynn (didn't try this one: as tempura and cream cheese just isn't really my thing), Incredible Roll, Cali roll (this was for my daughter, who isn't into sushi. She got this and ramen-forgot to snap a pic). Everything was delicious! Wait staff is extremely friendly, helpful and very efficient! This place is usually poppin, and most of the times I did have to wait for a table (but this is a GOOD sign in a sushi spot!) Empty restaurants scare me a bit, but especially a sushi spot! On other occasions, I have had there nigiri, sashimi plates... and I have never been disappointed! Def a go to spot if you're in the area!
