Spicy chicken.  There are TWO layers of chicken here, one underneath the visible one of the same size.
Stephen K.

This place is a chain?!?!?!? It doesn't SEEM like a chain: Is the food good? It is absolutely outstanding! Are the portion sizes small? They're enormous!!! Is all the food made ahead of time, fast food style? No, it's all made to order. Is the service disinterested and non-caring? Nope, the people running the establishment couldn't be friendlier and more helpful. Is it expensive? It's stupidly cheap, especially considering the titanic amount of food you get for your money. I'm SERIOUSLY blown away by Joy Teriyaki! I stopped in after working late for a fast dinner, and was mightily impressed by the friendliness and knowledge of the staff about all of the dishes. The service was fast and friendly, and upon opening my take-away at home, I couldn't believe the portion size! A big salad, two big scoops of rice, and, no joke, what appeared to be FOUR entire chicken thighs (boned and uniformly sliced). I could barely finish it. The other dishes were all equally generously sized. Unlike most establishments where portion size is the draw, the quality is tremendously great! Everything was perfectly cooked, perfectly seasoned, and absolutely delicious! The spicy chicken actually packs a good amount of heat, and has an amazingly great flavor. Don't bother with any of the other local teriyaki chains, just go to Joy. You'll be joyful that you did!

Kung Pao. Pic of Lima Beans, green Beans, corn, cubed carrots. Nasty! Chicken teriyaki was gross  it had a jelly type teriyaki glaze.  Bad

Nasty nasty! Who adds Cooked Canned vegetables to Kung Pao chicken? It had lima beans, green beans, corn and soft cubed carrots in it. We also ordered chicken teriyaki that had this jelly slimy glaze on it. It was horrible. Absolutely the worst. Be warned

Teriyaki chicken was amazing

We were going to get a burger but the spell form here was to good to pass up. My son got the noodles and chicken and I ordered the chicken teriyaki with a salad and rice. It was amazing and one of the best I have had in Portland. We will be back!!

My husband and I stop by here for a quick date night and loved it. The food was delicious and the price was just right. The atmosphere was nice and the service was great. Noticed a lot of people coming in to get take-out as we dined-in.

The chicken and beef was cold and undercooked. You have to pay extra for a little cup of sauce to go with your rice and meat.

"Let me know if you have any questions!". We had questions about her menu items, and she answered them nicely and thoroughly, in detail. Okay, so we order two things: the S3 and the Spicy Garlic Tonkotsu Ramen, and here's what U think about each: Tonkotsu Ramen: -The Meat doesn't have a huge initial, impactful taste, but the flavor settles in a couple seconds after you bite it and it's a very soft, warming feeling. -The Broth is where the spice is, and it's not like "oh my mouth is on fire" it's the type of spice that hits you in the back of the throat, so it's bearable but I couldn't chug it personally, I had to take sips which is nice for someone who devours their food like there's no tomorrow (like me). -The Noodles are.. just your typical Ramen noodles, nothing special to add there but nothing bad to say at all! -The Egg, although not marinated in soy sauce like some places do, was cooked well. The inside was soft and gooey, but the white was fully cooked. I have no complaints! -The Mushrooms added a nice texture to the noodles and the overall dish, and worked to make it even more satisfactory. The S3: -I don't have much to say because my cousin ordered it and I only had a few bites, but the veggies were cooked nicely... -The big boom about it was the noodles. If I had to describe it, I would say it's like.. an Orange Chicken type of Tater Tot, it was really unique and fun to eat. Next time I go, it'll be hard to decide what to order.. Okay, don't just take my word for it, go see for yourself! いただきます!

The broth had the perfect kick without overpowering the depth of the ramen, and everything came out hot and fresh. Parking was easy, food cart was easy to find!

It's on the sweet side, but I needed something sweet as a buffer since some of the dishes we ordered were a bit too salty. -Thai-Style Ceviche, 11/10. No friggin' notes. I highly recommend. Portion is a bit small, because I could have eaten MORE. -Sweet & Sour Fried Chicken was decent. We ordered the Small and it was about 5-6 boneless pieces. Very unique. I recommend to try if you like fried chicken. -Wok-Fried Yu Choy was wayyyy tooooo salty. Hubs & I wanted some greens and it was fried with generous amounts of garlic, but it just got saltier and saltier as we ate it. -White Curry w/ Brisket Burnt Ends, this dish was a little bit of a mixed bag. The white curry (roasted cauliflower + coconut cream) was delicious, but did it pair well with the Brisket Burnt Ends? Not really IMO. I don't think the flavors match. I'm not exactly sure what would pair well with the white curry, maybe some veg or tofu...but BBQ fusion with the curry wasn't the best. 2 unisex restrooms available, the one I used was clean. Service was a little scattered. We got the Yu-Choy first, followed by the ceviche a few minutes later. But the Fried Chicken and White Curry took a while to come (about another 10-15 mins. to come). We were lucky to find some street parking in the neighborhood nearby.

We've been through Sichuan/Szechuan restaurants all over the world, and I have to say while this place doesn't disappoint, the food does have a more muted flavors for those not as used to spice. We ordered a variety of dishes, and the standout was definitely the Salted Egg Yolk Shrimp. It arrived fresh and hot with plenty of salted egg yolk flavor. They're very casual here, especially with the cute drawings on the walls. My kids loved it. People were coming in and out grabbing plenty of to go orders, they're likely a local favorite. For an introduction to the spices in Sichuan cuisine, I'd recommend. If you're looking for things heavy on spice, you'll be satisfied but might've had better.

Since it was my first time, I asked the staff for a recommendation. They suggested the bibimbap and mentioned it was on the spicy side, which I was totally okay with.

It had so many different flavors and textures, and somehow they all worked perfectly together. The waiter also suggested mixing everything together before taking the first bite, which I really appreciated. The ambiance was super cute, with a cozy little tiki-bar vibe inside, and they also have a few outdoor tables. The service was exceptional throughout. This is an easy 5-star review from me.

They asked 3 times if we wanted to sit inside or out. Kinda felt pressured to commit. Should've listened to my gut at that point. Started off with a beer, Dr Pepper & fried pickles. Soda pricing was high, but I wanted caffeine to kick a headache. Truly, the fried pickles were some of the best I've ever had! Partner ordered the duck ramen. It was very heavy on the cinnamon. I wouldn't have been able to eat it. But if cinnamon is your jam you might enjoy. I was asking questions before I committed to an order specifying a shellfish allergy& was repeatedly recommended dishes that had prawns. Way to take food allergies seriously, even if you have "GF" noted on menu items. So beware, diners. I settled on the chicken soup cuz I love Napa cabbage & never thought of it in soup. The chicken was severly dry & overcooked. The broth lacked flavor, my homemade broth is more flavorful than this restaurants. I asked for a refill to my Dr Pepper & was concerned when I heard a soda can crack opened. Sure enough, I was charged $4 PER soda, for a total of $8! Outrageous! When we got our bill the itemization wasn't available so I had the receipt emailed & that where charges were confirmed. Honestly had I known I was paying per can of soda I don't know if I would've left such a tip. Knowing you can get 3/12pk on sale for $10 and I paid $8 for 2 just sits wrong for me. At least specify on the menu or when someone orders another soda it's an additional charge. Too bad the pickles were good. Won't go back.

It's served with a roti and that was fluffy and good. -Pineapple Salad (another current special) was our favorite as well. With cucumbers and a sweetness from the pineapple. A little spicy, but also refreshing. -Brisket Curry, the reason I saved Hat Yai was a bit underwhelming. It does pack some heat and comes with rice. It became a bit too heavy/much after a few bites, I found myself constantly going back to the pineapple salad to lighten my palate. The brisket also wasn't as soft as I was expecting, so I'm not sure I'd order again. *Drink: Pandan Gin & Tonic was good! Light pandan flavor and smooth. Would recommend if you like G&T and want to try a small twist. Restrooms available, fairly clean. Service was pretty quick. Parking is a little tricky, we came a bit later at night and found a spot fairly easily.
