Always friendly service!! We've ordered take-out from there, for as long as they've been in business! We recommend calling in your order so it's ready by the time you get there. The food is consistently very good. It is an "eat-in" or "take out" place. It is a very clean establishment. Love the two brothers who run it !!! Kathy & Curt L. - Stanwood read more

A pretty standard Teriyaki place. The portion sizes were large with lots of chicken and a good quantity of rice, which was the strength of this restaurant. The chicken was tender with pretty standard flavor, but had a little more much sauce than I like (as is common with Teriyaki restaurants). I did not find the salad appealing - iceberg lettuce with an Asian sesame dressing -- pretty nondescript and not great. The California roll was ok, a nice appetizer to go with the teriyaki. They had a few kinds of sushi and a variety of other Asian food offerings, meaning a fair amount of choice. The restaurant does a very busy takeout business, as well as having several tables occupied inside. It is clear that it is a local favorite. The staff was friendly and helpful, and the food came out quicker than promised. FYI: parking can be difficult on Friday or Saturday night ... more people want to go than there are spaces available. read more

Between Valentines Day, the holiday weekend, and few options in the area, it was crowded. 45 minute wait for take out. I got the bulgogi bento. Sad to say, I did not love it. It was weirdly sweet and super drippy. It looked and tasted more like japchae with onions instead of noodles. It spilled on my jeans as I pulled it out of the bag. My friends had other bentos that they enjoyed, and I liked the sides in the bento. Just don't get the bulgogi. May I give a suggestion? We stood there watching the counter help open the same boxes over and over because they couldn't remember what was in them. I wanted to scream "WRITE IT ON TOP!!!!" I estimate 50% of the counter worker's time went into reopening and reorganizing the boxes, leading to orders hanging out there longer than necessary and wasting time. I would happily donate a sharpie. read more

Happy Teriyaki is a staple in Stanwood. Their menu is extensive and from what I've had it's very good. My favorite is the spicy chicken with some kind of sushi roll. The only negative isn't even their fault. It's where the restaurant is physically located. It's almost impossible to turn left out of there to get back on the road going west. read more

Stanwood doesn't have much good asian food so thank god for Happy Teriyaki!!! This establishment has some of the best sushi and korean dishes you can get in the area. Super simple family owned shop with the kindest staff. Perfect for a quick grab and go lunch or a casual sit down dinner with the family! read more

One of the better casual dining spots in Stanwood. Their chicken bento was only $15 and it was huge! The space is very clean and comfortable and the staff were friendly. Only downside was that service was slow for this particular visit. read more

Happy Teriyaki - Chicken Bento - Japanese Near Me - Stanwood, Washington

I decided to take my son out for Teriyaki today and we both agreed it would be fun to try a new spot. The moment we entered we noticed a rather fun looking atmosphere and even though it was slightly busy the waitress made us felt welcome and she was very attentive through the experience. My son ordered the Mongolian beef as he likes spicy food. He asked for it to be at a level for but I feel they brought it down a notch or two because it was for a kid and my son said next time he will have to put it at a 5. I gave it a try and it tasted really delicious. For me it had some heat, but not to much and the rest of the flavors blended well together. I ordered the chicken yakisoba and I really felt like it was made well plenty of chicken and vegetables lots of noodles a very filling meal. The flavors all came together and as or writing this makes me want to return for more. We also got an order of Egg rolls and both enjoyed them as well. Over all we both really enjoyed our experience here and look forward to return trip... maybe with the whole family. read more

So happy we found this place!! Food is amazing! Extremely recommend the pork bulgogi, bibimbap, and bento box! Great service, atmosphere, and food! Very authentic and high quality for a teriyaki restaurant. read more

Stanwood. Who would have thought? The prices vs proportion is spectacular. I got the super bento box for $22. You get teriyaki chicken, a choice from the wok(I chose orange chicken), 4 pieces of California roll, gyoza, tempura shrimp, rice and salad. The teriyaki sauce was amazing, which strangely isn't always easy to find. The orange chicken, oh, the orange chicken! Best orange sauce I've ever had. It tasted like fresh squeezed juice right in the sauce. Nothing artificial about it. Such an unexpected, amazing experience. You can order to go, take out, or sit and dine. The service is amazing and I believe it's a family run restaurant. He was so sweet when I asked for a million sauces to go for my leftovers. The 5 minute music loop could use an update, but that's seriously the only tiny negative I could pull. read more

Happy Teriyaki - Japanese Near Me - Stanwood, Washington

Came here for lunch after a visit to the shops at Stanwood. Music is a bit loud, albeit festive... Its a bit early, so it was empty when we got here. We were greeted and staff is friendly. Food is ok. It is more americanized taste than authentic asian taste... not exactly the best we had, but passable, considering the town population and being the only teriyaki place in town.... Price point is ok.... read more

My family and I spent the afternoon into early evening hours in Camano Island State Park and it was so beautiful. As we drove out of Camano Island to Stanwood, we spotted Happy Teriyaki. Of course, we decided to stop in. My sister-in-law and I walked in and we were immediately greeted by two young men. I loved their enthusiasm! As we perused the menu board, we opted for a couple combo plates, which included two scoops of rice and a side salad. We ordered a Teriyaki Chicken + Katsu Chicken combo plate, a Teriyaki Chicken + Beef Kalbi (Short Ribs) combo plate, and two sides of Shrimp Tempura. It took some time to prepare the plates so we waited in our vehicle until they brought out the food. The side salad was crunchy and cold - just how I like my salad. And the Teriyaki Chicken was delicious - not too heavily glazed, not overly sweet, and not too salty either. It was the right consistency for teriyaki. I really enjoyed it with the short-grain steamed rice. I actually didn't need the extra teriyaki sauce that it came with. I thought the beef kalbi was okay; it's actually much thinner than I expected but still good nonetheless. Unfortunately, I did not enjoy the Chicken Katsu. It was tough to bite into and too dry to swallow - I almost thought I was eating pork! It was bland too. Everything else was better. Overall, we enjoyed our meal from Happy Teriyaki and we were glad to have found this on the highway. Asian comfort food to make us feel "home" away from home. read more

Always friendly and the food is excellent. We usually order to go and have never been disappointed.

Best teriyaki in town!! The teriyaki sauce here is better than any sauce I've had before. I've got my whole family hooked, we buy it by the bottle! I even get requests from my grandmother that lives a ferry ride away to bring her a bottle when I visit. The staff is always courteous and smiling! read more

The staff and food are amazing. I really enjoy the teriyaki chicken and yakisoba. My daughter loves to have the crab ragons.. I have never had a bad item there. The staff goes over and beyond. They great you with a hello and big smile and you can tell they truly enjoy their job. read more

No need to go into a lot of detail, but today was my second visit and last. The first was 6 months ago and the spicy chicken was at best mediocre. Today I ordered regular chicken teriyaki for my wife and it didn't even taste like teriyaki. Was terrible. I ordered the house fried rice and as well terrible. Chicken was dry, beef was gamey, and shrimp average. I see all the raving reviews and honestly don't get it as we've had 4 meals now that weren't even average in taste!! I'm a food critic, but my wife isn't near as picky as me so when she states her teriyaki is bad then it is bad. $45 wasted, but our dog well definitely enjoy. A plus though was the wait staff was great. Anyone reading these needs to go down the street to NaHa teriyaki. Unfortunately they were closed as it was my first choice. Their spicy chicken is the best I've had in years. If it's a 5 star, the Happy is maybe a 2. read more

This is the best Teriyaki place in Stanwood. Wife and I order fried rice at least a few times a month. Service is excellent and the owners are really nice people. Oh and their sushi is pretty yummy read more

Been going to this restaurant since I moved here 2 years ago. This is one of my favorite places to eat in Stanwood. Not only are the food items amazing, their service is top notch! Their portions are amazing. None can compare. They get busy but the food is worth the wait. I love the fact that this is the only place in town where people actually smile! Thank you Happy Teriyaki for always making the rough days better. You don't know what it means to have a place like yours in our town. The rice is always cooked perfect and everything is tastes fresh! Keep up the tasty goodness! read more

Family owned restaurant. Very clean, nice atmosphere and the son at the front is very friendly even when they are slammed. The menu is easy to read and detailed but to the point. The menu also has "happy" logos next to the popular dishes which was nice being a newbie here. Also, I'd like to mention that Mboyfriend and I both have never been a fan a sushi until we started coming here. 10/10 recommend the Crunch Roll (the son told us that the family invented this roll) and it's by far the best I've had. read more

We order the "grandma platter" (or something similarly titled) while visiting family in Camano and it was delicious. We got Teriyaki, yakisoba, egg rolls, gyoza, rice, orange chicken and I think that's it's and it fed 6 of us for $94 and there were leftovers for almost another meal the next day. Everything was fantastic. 100% would go again! read more

Although the dinner rush is real (go get a margarita at Dos whilst you wait) ... the food is real good. Their bento box is gigantic, the bibimbap is great. Spicy pork bulgogi with kimchi is my favorite. read more

I would have given 5 stars because the food was great and our server/cashier was friendly and nice. However, it was really offensive that the tip options on the machine were set to 18%, 25% and 35%. 35%?! The server then got upset we "only" chose 18% and put back/away the fortune cookies he got out for us, and turned his back on us as we were leaving. We had 3 simple sushi rolls and after tax and 18% tip came to $65. It's not like their sushi was that cheap to begin with. So the 35% tip suggestion felt like highway robbery. read more

The food is always amazing, I love that the staff recognizes us, and I also enjoy that they always have baseball on the big tv.

Teriyaki so good I'll drive from Bellingham to get it. The food is absolutely on point, lots of menu options and not to mention their prices, wow! Service with a smile, too! Truly a positive experience in my opinion, the restaurant feels clean and has a comfortable feel to it. If you're looking for a decent experience at a reasonable price, you won't do better than this place. read more
