I've come here at least once a week for almost ten years and I can't stop. They have probably my favorite breakfast sandwich (bacon and egg sandwich) and I always get a chicken and beef combo plate for lunch. Absolute staple read more

Good food and great service. Had the chicken and beef combo with egg rolls and gyoza all hot and all yummy. The dinning area is clean and comfortable. Parking is a tight, but there is street parking also. read more

I Love Teriyaki - Chicken teriyaki plate w salad - Japanese Near Me - El Segundo, California

To the owner of the Spot, please do yourself a favor and put the chicken and onions over the rice and put some steamed veggies or something to go along with your chicken and rice. I got the spicy chicken and rice. The flavor was very good but I had to mix the rice with the chicken and I wish I had some steamed veggies or something instead of this cold salad that doesn't go with this kind of food read more

I come here all the time, and generally go through the drive thru on the way home from work. I got home opened the bag and this is the salad that came w my teriyaki combo meal. So disappointed, especially when I tipped them generously. Like what the heck is this? Are we being cheap w iceberg lettuce now. This just looks sad. I also noticed they don't give you as much rice and chicken as they normally do. And the drive thru window guy is kind of rude. read more

The chicken teriyaki was good! The rice was a bit hard at some spots, could have been due to it being a to-go order. If you're in the area I would recommend if you're craving teriyaki. read more

Very small beautiful restaurant. The service is already nice and fast. They are coming the food right in front of you and when you take a bite, mmmm that char on the chicken and beef is so good . read more

Very great food and service we love them I love the chicken and burgers and it's such a family style restaurant that makes it better

Price = ~$15 / service= average / cleanliness = average / vibe = "hole in the wall", historic mom and pop style / parking = enough, not too much, not too little I ordered the chicken teriyaki entree (I cannot do spice so scurrred to try) that costs around $15 which is a good deal in LA, especially, for the portion you get. This is an unassuming, hole in the wall, that gives some nostalgia to the mall Sarku Japan days in high and middle school in NJ. This place is one of those finds that I like where you get inexpensive and good food for a great experience. I Love Teriyaki looks like it has been there since the olden days of LA metro. The vibe you get is one of those classic spots and the food delivers more than as well. The flavor of the teriyaki sauce is a perfect blend of savory and umami and reminds me of a far better Sarku Japan / chicken teriyaki dish. If you are looking for a homemade taste but quality chicken teriyaki with sauce...look no further. In addition, the sauce in the salad just further blends together with the chicken teriyaki and teriyaki sauce in the rice! Be prepared to be extremely full if you plan to finish this dish in one sitting. BONUS POINTS in taking a stroll after this delicious meal! In walking around town, it gives off a kind of old Western vibe (coming from someone who lived and explored Dallas-Fort Worth metro (DFW) a good amount), almost cowboy-like but you are in California so that does not make sense...this part of El Segundo must have kept its history and gives you such a different feeling than the newer, bougie, fun, and other areas in LA metro. Definitely check out this part of Main St. if you are looking for something different in LA metro. read more

Service was good. Spicy chicken and Chicken and Gyoza combination were EXCELLENT! Spicy chicken had the perfect amount of heat. Flavor was wonderful. And the best cheeseburger I've had in years. Prices are great for the amount of food you get. Highly recommended! read more

I have been going to this place my whole life. Its always amazing. I usually get teriyaki with chili cheese fries.

i love teriyaki is great for a quick and easy meal. they have a drive through that is really convenient. it is reasonably priced and they give good portions. i've had their chicken gyoza combo plate a few times. i will say the chicken and salad could be higher quality and the rice was a little dry. but for the price and what i expect, it is pretty good. read more

good food good service the food is super good for the price it comes out really fast local gem for sure

This place just didn't do it for me. Maybe they have new management (because the older reviews are 5 stars) or today was just a bad day. Whatever the case, the food was simply not good and after eating a few bites I took it as a loss monetary wise read more

The fries had absolutely no seasoning at all, not one pinch of salt. They were the blandest fries I've ever had in my life. And the chicken sandwich is literally a sandwich you can make it home. It was horrible. And my teriyaki plate had no sauce at all not even sauce on the side. It was so dry. read more

Solid food always enjoy my chicken teriyaki plate. Good deal for the money. Large portion and consistently tasty!

Beef teriyaki plate taste like a jail house meal. Beef has no flavor to it at all. Food was ready within 3-5 minutes. By far the worst teriyaki spot I've had. read more

Excellent breakfast burrito, prefer bacon over both sausage and bacon. Beef teriyaki is solid as well. Very quick service, chill, and overall a good experience. read more

I went to the restaurant this morning to eat. I needed to use the restroom. The employee who used it before me did not wash his hands. The sink was completely dry when I followed him in. I left. So disgusting. I called to let them know why I didn't eat there and was told to call back later. Just lost a customer. read more

I've always been a fan of this spot. However, the last few hours have been brutal. Last night I ordered the chicken combo. This entire morning I kept throwing up and ended up with food poisoning. read more

Great service, extremely fair prices for big portions. This place is bomb! Drive thru is convenient. Teriyaki chicken and teriyaki burger are delicious. A+ read more

On a low carb diet and decided to walk on Main Street to try and grab some protein. Stumbled across this restaurant, thinking it would be easy to grab a grilled chicken breast. Well...was rudely greeted by an Asian woman ill-equipped to handle a moderate (2 cars in the drive-thru) and me at the counter lunch hour rush. I asked for a grilled chicken breast and the woman charged me for a combination that included rice and a salad despite me asking for a literal grilled chicken breast. Then when I asked why she didn't simple charge me for a chicken sandwich w/o the bun, she rambled on about teriyaki, and suggested there was no Ala carte way to order and simply be charged for a chicken breast. I then asked her given that this was my first time here, how would she have liked me to other a simple grilled chicken breast. She then tried to give me a refund against my will, never asked for a refund. Ended up leaving 20 minutes later with no food, with the cashier demanding me to pay her after she took it upon herself to refund my meal. Then had the racist audacity to say "you just wanted a free meal." So I suppose the moral of the story is, you can't order anything Ala carte, nor get assistance in what you should order if you're a first timer. read more

A hole in the spot place in El Segundo. Parking: They have a small lot in front of their restaurant. They also have a drive thru option as well. Food: I've been here twice and I always order the teriyaki and dumplings plate. It also comes with salad. the teriyaki is pretty good and the dumplings are super crispy! The salad is okay and I could live without it. The teriyaki chicken is grilled then marinated in a teriyaki sauce! For the prices, it is pretty cheap which is why I come here. Overall, pretty good place for decent prices! read more

Good quality, flavor, and taste. Quality of food did not match the price. The flavors weee weird and tasted off.

I ordered prawn teriyaki. The shrimp were raw still and not deveined. There was poop all over the shrimp. Wouldn't go back.

I love this place honestly. They catered for a party I threw with rice chicken and salad for a party I was having and it was a hit. I love their spicy chicken and chicken katsu. It is also really affordable as well for the amount that you get. I have yet to try their burgers and fries, however their egg rolls and dumplings are too good that I always get them. Definitely stop by! read more

TL;DR Good spot to pick up some quick, inexpensive food and enjoy some random stuff on TV. Like the cheeseburgers, but not the fries. Breakfast burrito and egg rolls are other good items. Like the cheeseburgers here. Odd for a teriyaki place, but it's good! Learned on one of the visits that this spot has been making burgers for several years and that at one point it sold sandwiches and burgers exclusively. Staff is cool and they usually have something entertaining on TV to pass the time. Pros: + Double Cheeseburger + Breakfast burrito (served until 11 AM) + Egg Rolls + Gyoza + Drive Thru + Fair prices + Table can seat large parties (~8) Cons: - Chicken Katsu - Pastrami Sandwich - Bland fries - Bland rice - Chili Cheese Fries *Update 1/24/17 Tried their beef bowl (~$8) and thought it tasted decent, but was a bit plain. Seemed like it only had beef, rice and teriyaki. Some grilled green onions or something would have gone a long way. *Update 1/19/17 Tried their Pastrami sandwich and thought it was nasty. The pastrami was thick, chewy, and fatty. Definitely don't recommend this item from here. *Update 3/11/19 Had the breakfast burrito from here last week and thought it was pretty good. One of the better ones from El Segundo. I'd get it again. *Update 6/20/19 The Spicy Chicken Wrap is flavorful, but was a bit too drenched in sweet and spicy sauce for my taste. It wasn't bad, but it's not for me. I wouldn't get it again. The chicken pieces tasted fine and were cooked perfectly though. *Update 11/12/19 Had the Chicken Katsu for the second time and it had several pieces of fat and gristle. The first time it was decent but this second time was gross. They also don't give enough rice in proportion to the amount of chicken. Had to ration it out during the meal. Could have also used a bit more of Teriyaki sauce as the rice is bland. If you're feeling lucky and going for the Katsu I'd ask for some extra Teriyaki on the side. I personally wouldn't get it again after this last order. read more

I'm visiting after 4 years and I absolutely love having teriyaki. The food, service, and price are all so good. I really appreciate that the kitchen is open to customers, which makes me feel much safer. And the price unbelievable - less than $12 for meat, rice, and fresh salad. I highly recommend this place to everyone who visits Segundo! read more

I woke up this morning and craved a mushroom burger. I also wanted to try it somewhere I've never been to. And then I remember I love Teriyaki having it (even if they are primarily a teriyaki joint) so off I went on this here lunch run! I read they had a drive thru, and with no intentions of eating in, I took that option. It's probably the only drive thru I know that doesn't have a 2-way microphone placed in the menu, so I drove straight to a window. It felt a bit awkward because nobody opened it for a few seconds. But when it did, putting in my (one) order was easy. Took a few minutes, then I was outta there. The burger was cooked to order. Veggies were fresh. The only snag here is the mushrooms didn't really come through - primarily because there wasn't enough. I barely tasted it. But the burger itself was overall delicious. FOOD: 3. Mushroom burger didn't have enough mushrooms but still good. SERVICE: N/A - I went through the drive thru, so there was little interaction. VALUE: 4. 5 and change for the sandwich. Not too too bad. PARKING: Street and private lot. OVERALL: 3.5. I might come back and try a teriyaki dish someday... read more

Great burgers love how fresh and juicy the meat is . Well season great . Love the customer service love the way they attended me

I ordered the teriyaki chicken breast and the chicken tasted awful.. like it was cooked on a dirty griddle that needed some of the excess soot/char removed. Also, there was almost no teriyaki sauce on the chicken. I thew it away. read more

4 years later, my boyfriend has been upgraded to husband and our love for ILT is still going strong. The spicy beef plate is still delicious and the portions are generous. The bacon cheeseburger is excellent as well. The service is fast and the drive-thru is super convenient for quick takeout orders. read more

If you're offended by a hole in the wall being dingy and run down go somewhere else, if you can't stand having service that isn't beaming with effusiveness go somewhere else, but if you want really good food, fast, for a great price, this place is the best. read more

Best breakfast burrito in El Segundo, but they don't open until 8:30am even though their operating hours are listed as 8am. Rather disappointing. Pretty bad to list your hours at 8am only to show up and to be told to come back in a half hour. Please change your posted hours at the store front and on-line read more

Have never been inside but drive thru is very quick. Happy with service. The burgers here are good!

Cools don't wear gloves . Grabs the food with his hands. Should use tongs . Not customer service oriented .

Great service. Fair prices, really good food. One of the few places the dollar still goes far.

Review: spicy chicken plate Pros: Fast service Portion size Cons: Onions made no sense Sauce too sweet Onions were annoying Tasted a bit like burger, I assume they cook most of their food on the same griddle. Probably would not try again. read more
