We ordered the chicken teriyaki and the katsu & gyoza combo. Both portions were pretty generous, with a good amount of meat and rice. The chicken had extra teriyaki glaze on top, which was a little sweet, but made the meat more flavorful. The katsu was pounded thin and had a good fry on it. Everything was cooked well - definitely a great teriyaki option on the east side! read more

Quiet wood-lined restaurant with comfy seating, great food, tv streaming kpop, friendly staff. I had a chicken Katy's bento box and a Coke for about $22. It was a very tasty selection of foods and very good. The staff was friendly but not annoying. There were a few other diners - all very quiet with headphones. Parking was easy. Looking forward to returning. read more

I just went in search of good teriyaki while traveling for work. This place was fast, friendly and delicious!

I Love Teriyaki is located in a little plaza with plenty of parking. It's got a cozy, hole-in-the-wall ambience, it was clean, and not too noisy neither. Looked like they had a few regulars coming in and out while I was dining in which was nice to see. Mrs. Lee is very sweet and has such a cheerful demeanor. Service was 10/10 and brought a smile to my face! :) They offer free water, hot tea, and egg drop soup with your order which was nice! You do have to pay for extra sauces but I thought the portion you got was generous unless you like to drown your food in sauce. I ordered a Chicken and Chicken Katsu Combination plate which was great! The size and portions of the proteins are a little smaller than other teriyaki places but they tasted fresh and made to order. Katsu was crispy and thin (how I like it) and teriyaki chicken was soft and juicy. I really like that the plates come with a side salad, which was fresh, because it helps lighten an otherwise heavy meal. Overall I had a great meal during my visit and I would come back again! read more

Awesome place i work across the street n i really love it they have miso soup for you to serve yourself and the portions are really great

The food is overpriced for the quality . The broccoli tasted and looked old . I asked for a double bag and the man didn't do it . After I got home my car was sticky and my pants had teriyaki stains all over my pants . Couldn't be a worse experience for the price and the cost for my dry cleaner . read more

I work in the area and this is a weekly visit for me for lunch. Used to be a time, many years ago, where Seattle had an amazing Teriyaki scene with Nasai and Toshis. For $6 you could get a full meal in the U-District. Obviously those days are gone and I'm now an Eastsider - mostly because I like parking and getting to where I'm driving. For those craving consistently solid Teriyaki Kumae and her husband run this place and do it right. I personally don't see an issue with two portions of chicken and a bed of rice with salad and it's quick, convenient, and tasty. If you're looking for ambience and table service, go elsewhere. The best part of this is the Hole-in-the-wall, GreasySpoon vibe. read more

This is the best Teriyaki around the area and rest assured you will consistently get nothing less than the bestest fresh ingredients and that includes their absolutely beautifully made salads! I've been in the food business for over 35 years and I have never ever had such delicious freshly made salad! I mean a salad.....right ?! Something so small and seamingly so simple is consistently made fresh for EVERY ORDER. Mrs. Lee and her husband really know what they are doing and In my opinion that is why they remain a success. *** Give them a break in the hot summer months as that kitchen is very small and it gets extremely hot back there-take it from someone who knows there way around a kitchen. read more

They charged me full price but said they couldn't provide the salad cuz they ran out for several days now. I asked why are you charging full price, atleast offer a drink as a replacement and they said no. So I had already paid full price for 2/3rd of a meal. Good food. Super Stingy service. And they charge 50 cents extra for literally like a tinnnny cup of sauce. read more

This was a restaurant that I used to come a lot when I was a kid. My friends and I usually would bicker about where to go, but when someone mentions this place, we usually end up going here. The portion size was generous, the cost was reasonable, and most importantly the food was delicious. Jump to now and I believe the owners have changed since, but the atmosphere of the place hasn't and I'm glad to say that the quality of the food has not changed. Usually when I order spicy chicken from other places, sometimes the chicken gets really burnt or there's a harsh bitter after taste with the spiciness. Fortunately, I got that spiciness that I like, but the tanginess from the sauce and the chicken wasn't burnt which made a combination of a nice flavour combo in my mouth. As a change of pace I got the egg rolls in comparison to the gyoza that I usually order and it has a nice crunch on the exterior and is dense with lots of veggies inside. I'm more of a fan favorite of the gyoza, but it could be that I'm just not used to the egg rolls here. If you haven't tried this place, I would definitely recommend trying it out. I'm happy to say it was my go to and will still continue to be my go to. read more

If you want to be able to have things like Teriyaki sauce, or Siracha, @ the table, then this is NOT the place to go. You must pay extra to get any of these things. Disappointing. The teriyaki was fine, but I won't be back to pay for normal things read more

Kid and I met here for lunch - 2nd or 3rd time. Good parking, my go-to is spicy chicken and it was great. Good portions, great flavor, a little bit on the "hard-grilled" side which I prefer. Good option for Bellevue. read more

$22 mediocre bulgogi. Sauce is bland. Puzzled why they ask 'for here or to go' when for here, still gave to go container.

There are countless teriyaki restaurants in the Seattle area, so I decided to try one. This restaurant is a local restaurant with good food and service. I ordered the teriyaki shrimp and pork yakisoba, both entrees tasted very good. The shrimp were slightly overcooked but the flavor was good, the yakisoba was delicious and came with a lot of meat and vegetables. Overall, this was a good dinning experience. read more

The best teriyaki I've ever had! Highly recommend! They are the sweetest people and the lady at the front is so kind! Go check them out!

Some of the best spicy chicken teriyaki you can find. Hands down. It has the perfect amount of spice and it's sweet, but not too sweet, which is perfect for me. Portions are generous and the owners are super friendly. Highly recommend! read more

This small business is located in an almost ghost town area of Redmond, yet it is still open, providing food like Normal :) We came in to order take out and got the spicy garlic chicken teriyaki and the broccoli tofu dish. The flavors was pretty unique as it's not the same as other teriyaki joint. The chicken definitely had both spicy and garlicy taste and it was balanced. The chicken was pretty tender as well. The sauce in the broccoli tofu dish was awesome, it was flavorful and went well with everything. Price and portion was good. I asked for mine to have no rice, they basically gave me a whole container of meat in it. The main focus here though is the service. The lady made a barrier between us and her to ensure we were at least 6ft away. Any payment was made by a box. And we were provided with gloves to sign the receipt. I never seen a restaurant took so much effort in making sure it was a clean and safe environment. Kudos to them!!!! read more

Teriyaki binge month! I had a teriyaki craving this month and sent me all over town looking for a new favorite. My old favorite place went out of business, victim of coivd. Sad! This place came highly recommended from yelp with all the reviews. 5 stars and 4 stars rave/ recent reviews. So I came! I got their jumbo chicken teriyaki. Came with salad. Standard. The chicken wasn't bad but it was covered in so much sauce. Sweet sauce. Way too much sauce for me. Also had peanuty taste. Not sure if they use peanut oil. Its just very peanuty. I didn't have peanut allergy so it was fine. Chicken itself was also a ok. A little dry. Wasnt crazy about the meat either. verall, it was underwhelming. Maybe I came at an off time. It was in between meal time. read more

Quite happy with our lunchtime teriyaki today. We ordered over the phone just after opening at 10:30. Our food was ready in 15 which is great. Hubby got jumbo chicken teriyaki and I got teriyaki salmon. He really enjoyed his and I enjoyed mine. The salmon looked different than any I've ever had, but thankfully that didn't change the taste for me. I do wish they gave more teriyaki sauce on the side, but most places don't. I also got a side of miso which I liked, but wish it was a bit stronger. Finally, the salad dressing was very interesting. Very thick and sweeter than I am used to. I enjoyed it though. This is so close to home and I'm willing to pay the higher prices to know I am getting something good. read more

I'm embarrassed that I came here. It was $18 for a teriyaki plate to-go. I should have cancelled. I figured it would be a huge serving for the price and it wasn't at all. It wasn't even great, it was just ok. Huge rip-off, don't waste your time here! read more

This is a spot I come to when I am specifically in the mood for great spicy chicken teriyaki. Located in a very convenient location for easy parking. Food comes out fast and fresh, always busy during peak hours but never a line so you can come here on lunch for a quick pop-in and out. A little on the pricey side for teriyaki but still super tasty that I keep coming back. They are on top of their COVID procedures, mask up signs posted along with sanitizer, social distance and sanitized pens for when you need to sign the receipt! It's a bit of of a small restaurant so I don't think they are opened up for dine-in quite yet but you can still over the phone and pick up or walk in and order to go! read more

This place has good food but pricing is shady. I ordered a single Mongolian beef dish over the phone for take out and it cost $25 with tax. There is no pricing on the menu or the website for this dish and it included two scoops of rice and nothing else(not even chop sticks). The amount charged for what was provided and its quality might fit into the $17 range on a good day even with 10/2023 pricing but what was charged dictates a sit-down restaurant with server... so do not ever order anything from outside of the basic yaki dishes unless you want shell shock. PSA: the owner does not tell you the price before payment nor do they provide a receipt unless you ask them. read more

Great teriyaki and Christian ownership too! They're always playing nice Christian music. Great spot.

The teriyaki chicken was super dry. It was very expensive as well 25.98 for a jumbo garlic chicken teriyaki. I'm disappointed

Very satisfied with the I Love Teriyaki's no-frills Teriyaki plates. For under $10, you can stuff yourself with an enormous plate of teriyaki, rice, and salad with an abundant selection of meat to choose from. We came here at 12:30 on a weekday and chose to dine-in, but noticed that a lot of people order take-out here. I ordered the regular teriyaki plate while my friend ordered the spicy teriyaki. I was impressed by the quantity of meat - if I were to guess, it was probably 12oz or so chicken (I'm scared to imagine how much meat the JUMBO plate has...). The meat itself was quite juicy, but I felt like the Teriyaki sauce that they used was a little too sweet for my liking. The rice is surprisingly high quality too; it doesn't get mushy like a lot of short grain rice does. At the end of the day, it's teriyaki. Although the food is not going to blow your mind, I would highly recommend coming here for lunch, especially if you work nearby. The combination of quality and big portion sizes are enough to add I Love Teriyaki into my regular lunch rotation. read more

The food itself was just what we wanted and more. The jumbo chicken teriyaki was delicious and fresh. It was the perfect amount of filling (without sitting heavy) and as I'm typing this I want to go back and order more. If you're looking for teriyaki you need to come here and support these awesome people. Lots of choice on the menu and great customer service. We do love teriyaki!! read more

This is always a good teriyaki choice. Sometimes the hours online don't accurately reflect open hours.

Solid teriyaki place. Chicken teriyaki and Katsu are both good. Really like the complimentary soup as well. Price is a bit higher than some other teriyaki places in the area but the quality of the food is definitely better as well. Service is friendly and accommodating. Food comes out quickly. Parking is abundant in the lot right in frotn Overall, recommend and we will be back again! read more

I had the Teri chicken and short rib. The short rib was so tough that I spit out several pieces. I am sure they are not prepping it well or cooking it long enough to be tender. The Teri chicken was actually okay except for the real thick teriyaki glaze that was too thick. The shrimp tempura was cooked great and flavorful but the sauce with it had way too much vinegar and couldn't be corrected even with a little soy. Still looking for great teriyaki in Renton. read more

I really like this place. The lady who works at the front of the house is super friendly and always remembers my boyfriend by name when he comes in and orders for us. The restaurant itself is very small and cozy. At lunchtime, it can be very busy with a long line and the phone going off nonstop. Even with all this chaos, the lady working here is super friendly, gives you a nice big smile, and gets the job done! The prices are very reasonable, and the teriyaki dishes come with a small salad. If you're dining in, there's an area where you can help yourself to hot tea and soup. The soup is egg flower soup on all of the days except for Wednesday, and on Wednesday it is a radish soup. All over the walls, you'll see that this place uses zero MSG and 100% vegetable. There is a single bathroom to the left of the cashier--it seems like an area where customers can't go, but you can! Overall, nice place to come for teriyaki at lunch time, but if you're in a hurry, I'd recommend calling for takeout or show up before/after the 12-1 rush. read more
