Crazy good portion sizes for the price! The chicken teriyaki is juicy and flavorful and I love the different options for sides! Convenient location close to the lightrail station as well. The service was excellent and fast and there are lots of seating options indoors and outdoors. read more

BB's Teriyaki Grill - Japanese Near Me - Seattle, Washington

Great price, great concept, good portions, and generous with free sauces. Fountain drinks are $2 and the combo starts at $13. Hard to beat! BUT the chicken...It's more of a chicken jerky type of texture - dry, tough, relies completely on the sauce for flavor. The spicy chicken sauce tastes like store-bought kalbi marinade from Hmart, different from the slight orange-reddish color you see at various other Teriyaki shops. Everyone's got their own sauce and there's no standard, fine, but this salty, generic sauce just leaves way too much to be desired. But hey, if they keep bellies full and wallets happy in hard economic times, then that's a blessing. read more

BB's Teriyaki Grill - Bowl - Japanese Near Me - Seattle, Washington

Best food ever, honestly. Chicken teriyaki is so tasty (both spicy and non-spicy) and the portion sizes are pretty decent. Super friendly staff, always clean dining area, nice to sit alone or with friends. Honestly one of the best spots on the Ave. They also have punch cards for UW students, which is a plus!! Sauces are delicious, mixed veggies are the best. It never unsettles my stomach either-- even the spicy stuff is easy to digest. Maybe that means it's not spicy enough, but I personally find the kick just right and am really glad it doesn't bite me in the back the next day. I literally find myself craving BB's so often that it's become somewhat of a personality trait -- 10/10 recommend, new staple for me, will be coming here often. read more

sooooooo yummy , I simply couldn't get enough! They were so kind to me and considerate even though it was my first time there. Not to mention the Adele playing in the store ! Yum yub ! read more

Fantastic energy from the staff and the food was beyond fantastic. 10/10 will be returning weekly.

Braised pork was bland, stringy, and very dry. Spicy teriyaki chicken wasn't spicy at all, not even a little kick, and stewed rather than grilled. I didn't know this before going in, but the food here is not made to order, it is pre-made and served up at the counter, Chipotle style. read more

Great spot for a quick meal! The portions are generous and the sides are actually decently flavored. However, I got the spicy chicken and it wasn't really spicy, I thought they could have added more heat. The service is similar to Chipotle, and goes pretty smoothly. There is seating inside but also outside overlooking the ave if you're into eating al fresco. read more

BB's Teriyaki Grill - BYO - Japanese Near Me - Seattle, Washington

The beef Teriyaki was hard and dry. A good teriyaki sauce has a balance of sweet and automatic. The smoky salty flavor of the soy sauce should complement the garlic and ginger flavor in the marinade.. The teriyaki sauce was so sweet It tasted like corn syrup.. also the price on the menu does not reflect what is on yelp. I was also charged for double the meat which I did not ask for. Overall, if you're craving teriyaki and one large portions, this place is not bad. read more

Rice, very gummy, I think they used too much water to cook it. Broccoli was just plain ol' veggies. Chicken comes dry and she put half a teaspoon of soy sauce on top. Where is the teriyaki sauce? This was just a sad experience for what teriyaki should be. read more

This place was super good and did not disappoint. The location is perfect and the inside was welcoming and super clean. My friend took me here this weekend and said it was the best teriyaki and the best bang for your buck. The service was super good they hooked it up and gave for good portion sizes, the food it's self was really good, they put a regular sauce and a spicy sauce on top that was just right. I will definitely be returning here and recommend it to anyone I know. read more

BB's Teriyaki Grill - BYO spicy/regular - Japanese Near Me - Seattle, Washington

Okay, this is my 2nd review here. I thought I'd try something different this time around. So instead of my regular of chicken teriyaki, I heard they offered brisket. Wait, what??? Yes please!! And it was stellar! Holy moley, it was so good! Portion was big, and it was just absolutely delicious, very unexpected in a good way. You've gotta try it if you like beef. Best meat I've ever had on any teriyaki ever! Definitely coming back for THAT!!! read more

Solid Seattle teriyaki place. For 13 dollars the portion is large and always filling. The service is fast and the restaurant is clean. Their tofu is good and their veggies are fine. A good spot to grab a quick lunch. read more

Food was very low quality. Noodles and vegetable stir fry were barely warm which raises a food safety concern. Nothing is fresh and is all premade. I tossed my meal after a couple bites. I ordered a tofu teriyaki and the teriyaki sauce was very runny and not sweet at all. Very flavorless. I went around 6:20 and there were very few customers which raises a red flag. Don't waste your money here, go anywhere else. read more

The second I walked in it smelled like burning eggs. My teriyaki was bland and they definitely use Minute made rice on top of that the salad tasted rotten read more

Good teriyaki, different from usual Seattle teriyaki, as it is more of a chipotle style of service. I like that you can choose rice and yakisoba and veggies along with the meat. The food tastes good and the service is nice, the price is reasonable, I do wish they served more chicken with the meal, but that is expected with the area. I will definitely go back if in the area. read more

BB's Teriyaki Grill - Japanese Near Me - Seattle, Washington

I'm a fan! While it isn't necessarily in my diet to be eating teriyaki, I was craving it! So glad they are still open during this "mess." The portion size is HUGE. Plenty for two meals even though I nearly devoured the whole thing. The spicy chicken had great flavor. The only thing I should have been more cognizant of was the amount of sauce coming off of it...fine if you order rice...not if it's sitting on top of my salad. Oh well. I'll ask for it on the side next time. I enjoy that the menu is straight forward and somewhat simple, but there are options to suit your needs. I got the salad and veggies as my two sides. They were decent; nothing crazy...the chicken is definitely the star of the show. I'll return and try another protein next time around. Decently healthy option in the U for a decent price! read more

BB's Teriyaki Grill - Spicy chicken with greens. So good. - Japanese Near Me - Seattle, Washington

Actually had to re-download Yelp just to write this. Sometimes you just wanna take a lunch break at work and go to the closest place with edible food. Today I was unfortunate enough to stumble upon this abomination of a teriyaki spot. You enter to the bleak and monotonous world of BBs Teriyaki, stand at the counter and order something simple because how could you go wrong with some rice, yakisoba and regular teriyaki chicken. The person at the counter mounds tons of rice on the box then moves onto adding a pile of the soggiest yakisoba known to man. Step to the side and unleash the steam of what looks like thinly cut boiled chicken and gently scoops just a tiny bit of chicken making absolutely sure not to get half enough. One last step to the side and the spoon dips twice into the thinnest teriyaki sauce I've ever seen in my life. The sauce sadly bleeds moistly right off the pinch of chicken into the rice. The employee asks if I would like a fountain drink and I happily accept. I receive my box of food and grab a cup from the tower and make my way over to the fountain drinks where there is a sign that reads "sorry there's no ice" so I fill my cup with lukewarm soda and move to a table to dig in. Needless to say I did not make it far into the food before the box of food and cup of warm soda came to its necessary conclusion in the garbage can on my way out the door. I hope the $20 I spent goes to a good cause like retirement for everyone who works here. If you loathe good food and good service this is definitely the place for you. Stay safe guys. read more

The food is delicious and flavorful. The servers were nice and kind when making my order. They also did not skimp on the portions. They gave the right amount of food. The space was clean. I highly recommend as a visiting athlete only in town for competition read more

Note that this BB's Teriyaki location IS OPEN for TAKEOUT, DELIVERY, & DINE-IN during COVID. BB's Teriyaki is one of my boyfriend's favorite places to eat on The Ave. The quantity for the price can't be beat, although I think they increased their prices slightly cause I paid $11 instead of $9 a year ago. I came here with him this past week for his birthday. He ordered chicken with yakisoba, rice, and broccoli. I ordered tofu with brown rice and broccoli. I probably should've chosen a third side instead because they gave me a LOT of broccoli and rice. The tofu itself was good, but I felt like the sauce was still a little too dilute for my taste. BB's has limited outdoor seating, but we sat outside to eat since I don't feel comfortable eating inside with covid going around. Service was quick as usual and the servers were friendly. The servers were wearing masks and gloves. The payment is no contact minus clicking to add a tip. They also have a hand sanitizer dispenser on the wall. Overall: 3/5 for food, 4/5 for service, 5/5 for health and safety standards read more

BB's Teriyaki Grill - Japanese Near Me - Seattle, Washington

This is a very nice teriyaki place. These are generally almost like a chain--similar menus with similar tastes. This is better than average. I just had the regular chicken teriyaki. The chicken was cooked very good, with just that flavor you are seeking. The white rice was very good also. It was a good value overall and definitely worth a visit. read more

BB's Teriyaki is like the Subway of Teriyaki. You walk in and pick what you want as they scoop out the food in front of you onto your plate. You pick the carb type, meat, salad or side dishes and pay at the end. They typically have everything out already so the line gets moving pretty quick and their food is ok. My only negative feedback is that my friend and I got the same thing, but the portion size of our food was significantly different. The cook was the one who was scooping my food, and was pretty rude and skimpy on the portion size. My friend's server gave my friend much more generous portions. read more

Every time I want to have beef but don't want to cook it myself, this place is my first choice! I am a huge fan of their brisket! Well it is a little bit salty for today's dish. But the flavor was great! And their brown rice was also good, some sort of chewy, but also soft! The spicy chicken was not that spicy, actually I think the flavor is more inclined to teriyaki with sweetness! But the spicy sauce was nice, love it! Please try their cabbage salad, it is really appetizing! All their sauces mixed together and mixed with rice, I would not regret walking for almost 20 mins to here to have such a bite! 4.5 / 5 for taste 3 / 5 for service Love it! read more

First of all we ordered from BB's Teriyaki Grill yesterday for lunch. It was delivered by DoorDash. That delivery should be really easy cause the restaurant is about 2 to 3 blocks away from us. So Yes I had DoorDash to deliver them cause it was convenient. But anyway when that order was delivered, the delivery person delivered to the wrong place and when I got the text with the pico, I said this isn't where we woo. So texted back to the delivery person and then call that person with the correct address. The person finally delivered that food, but by that time them food isn't warm anymore. He claimed that that DoorDash had a glitch. But as for BB's Teriyaki's. We ordered (3) teriyaki chicken with some are spicy and some are regular. I also ordered a gyoza . To me gyoza should be grill and Not steam . Very disappointed on that. I had re heat them food cause it got cold. I think overall all food was ok, but delivery was very poor. read more

We've been here a few times and food is not bad. My partner and I ordered the same exact thing (spicy chicken teriyaki with yakisoba and green salad). For someone reason portion size and consistency seems to be different based of the employee. Y'all really need to be consistent with the portion sizes because it isn't equal. If we're paying the same price for the same exact food why are yall giving different portion sizes? We also said we're paying together twice and neither of those times did the employee catch that. read more

BB's Teriyaki Grill - Spicy chicken teriyaki with yakisoba and green salad - Japanese Near Me - Seattle, Washington

Note: This review is for the Smokey Point, Wa location. It doesn't seem they have added this location to Yelp since it's so new. After reviewing the menu, I decided to stop in to give it a shot as it seemed a variation from the typical teriyaki spot. It was very clean upon walking in. The menu is pretty simple. To choose your order, you select from pre-made options such as veggies, rice, noodles, proteins, and sauces. It is much akin to the Chipotle restaurant set up. I opted for brown rice, double veggie stir fry , and shredded pork with teriyaki sauce. They did have a spicy sauce option as well. Beef brisket and chicken were the other protein options however, they both looked a bit dry for me. All the food was uncovered which may be leading to loss of moisture. They assembled the pork on top of the rice with the veggies on the side. They poured the sauce over top of the rice and pork. Next time I will add extra sauce and have it poured over the veggies as well for extra flavor. The pork was really moist and tender, a welcome surprise. The veggies were okay, sauce over top would have made them better. Overall, the food was pretty good and a I will be back to try the brisket and the chicken. I did give bonus points for the compostable packaging. I hate styrofoam which is how typical joints like this serve food. The main reason for the rating is that the customer service was not great at all. The person taking my order didn't smile or even try to engage in any conversation. Her tone was also a bit rude when answering questions. It's a new place, people are going to have questions and ask for recommendations. They should be trained on how to respond. I almost rated it a three due to the poor service but will give benefit of the doubt this time. It may sway me to change my rating in future visits if not improved. read more

I wanted to love it, but I don't. My friend and I were going to take a trip up to Diablo Lake, and we decided to stop by the U-District and get some food before the 2 and a half hour drive. He got Veggie Grill, but I was craving teriyaki so I decided to look at places nearby. I saw that this place had a 4 star overall rating with mostly positive reviews, so I decided to give it a try. I ordered my food through Google (I believe it was through a partnership with Postmates). I placed an order for a teriyaki with rice, broccoli, and cabbage. The food was bland and dry. I placed my order, and a minute later it was ready for pickup. I'm not even joking. Take a look at the text notifications. This clearly means that their food isn't made to order, and is sitting in a warmer all day. I probably got served chicken that had been sitting out for awhile, because it was terribly dry and bland. The chicken was also cut very thinly in my opinion. The workers were friendly, so I'll give them a star for that. Overall, it was not worth paying $11.01 for. I took a couple of bites, and tossed the rest. You can see how bland it looks in the photo. Unfortunately, I will not be returning. read more

They have some of the nicest workers! So sweet and each of them tried to get to know me. This place is like the chipotle of Asian teriyaki. You choose your base/sides: noodles, white or brown rice, yakisoba, veges, etc. For protein, you can get chicken or tofu of half half- I did half half and liked the chicken more but the tofu was pretty decent! I did brown rice, broccoli, and yakisoba with the half/half meat and regular teriyaki sauce. Very yummy and filled me up! Probably could have split it into 2 meals but I could take leftovers so I finished it :) about $8-9 so not a bad deal for what you get. Give this place a try!! Great for take out also. read more

I'm personally offended that this spot doesn't have a full 5 stars. ... Jokes aside, I love BB's. A friend of mine recommended this spot while we were walking down the Ave for dinner in between classes, and lemme tell you, I'm hooked. Chipotle-styled (which is actually where we were originally headed, haha!) teriyaki, with HUGE portions for 9$, and overall super tasty. My friend excitedly pointed out that the amount of food you get for your buck here was totally worth it, and let me tell you -- she was 100% right. I think as a student, it's important to find spots that can offer both delicious and affordable food, and I'd say that a SUPER bonus is being able to take home leftovers to suffice you for another meal later on. I was definitely excited to have leftovers for lunch the following day, and was still in awe that this was only for 9$! I ordered the spicy chicken teriyaki with roasted vegetables and mixed green salad. I think what really made me happy is that I could have a healthy meal if I really wanted to, and all for the same price! Additionally, I'd say the customer service also made me really happy, for the cashier was super friendly and attentive. I don't remember her name, but she was a lovely Latina woman & made my visit even more enjoyable. Overall, I definitely recommend BB's Teriyaki Grill if you're looking for an affordable and tasty spot for lunch/dinner while on the Ave. It's a new favorite for me for sure! :-) read more
