High quality food... meat was fresh off the grill and perfect temp. Family owned with great service and a free drink included what else do you need? read more

The food was fresh and delicious! Service was fast and genuinely friendly, making for a great dining experience. The meal was reasonably priced and even included a canned drink. The restaurant itself is clean, welcoming, and a comfortable place to enjoy a meal. My meal was $13.99. read more

Loved the teriyaki and gyozas! Best teriyaki in Kent. Would definitely recommend. Will be back again. read more

The best teriyaki restaurant by far. I change what I order often and it's always on point. My favorites are the Katsu plate with a generous amount of rice with the perfect Katsu sauce and salad ( with the best dressing ever) and of course, the teriyaki chicken. Plenty of seating, very clean, and very welcoming. read more

Kim's Teriyaki - Chicken Teriyaki - Japanese Near Me - Kent, Washington

The food was probably the worst teriyaki I've had in Washington. I got the chicken katsu curry and the curry was basically water. Absolutely no flavor and thin like a soup. We waited almost 40 mins for take out. The guy working the counter was nice. That's about the only nice thing I can say. read more

I come here whenever I can. They serve the best Teriyaki in the area and super friendly owners.

Stopped into Kim's this past week for lunch. As everyone knows there are lots of options for teriyaki in the Seattle area. Kim's has a good overall rating for a reason. The place is clean and the staff is pleasant and professional. I ordered a chicken teriyaki/ katsu combination. It was a good value, lots of food. The salad was fresh and tasty, teriyaki was cooked just right, tender yet cooked completely. The katsu was crispy on the outside, yet tender on the inside. I'll definitely be back to try other menu items! read more

This place is full of strangely specific signs giving scolding reminders to patrons. Things like returning the hot sauce to the counter and not to take ice out of the ice watee dispenser. All these signs make normal people, who wouldn't do those things, uncomfortable. While the heathens who do that kind of stuff won't give a darn about the signs and do it anyways. The service is nonexistent. There's a quick exchange and corrections made if you aren't doing things in the way the guy who runs the place would like. They are extremely stingy and cheap in glaring ways, including their assortment of signs. The food is fine but nothing to rave about. The prices are decent. I'd rather them raise the price and stop acting weird and assuming we're all palming extra cans of soda and ice. The vibe is just a strip mall. It's a convenient location or I'd never go back. read more

Kim's Teriyaki - Shrimp & Terri !! - Japanese Near Me - Kent, Washington

My usual teriyaki shop was closed, so I ordered take out from Kim's Teriyaki for the first time. I found his listing on Yelp, and was intrigued with the high rating...hence, the reason I decided to give them a try. I ordered the (Chicken Teriyaki & Beef Ribs) entrees where it had earned 100% satisfaction from their customers. The food was tasty, and wife-approved. I'm definitely switching to Kim's for my teriyaki in the future. read more

My coworker picked up lunch and I really enjoyed the chicken with sesame combo. Cant comment on anything but the taste since I didn't pick it up myself but we are all happy with our meals. read more

Kim's Teriyaki - Chicken teriyaki combo with sesame chicken - Japanese Near Me - Kent, Washington

Best teriyaki in Kent with awesome service to boot! Definitely worth a visit, every week, multiple times

Service was straightforward, the food portion was significant for its value, the food tasted amazing and fresh, and the bathroom was super big and clean. I had a great experience there, too. I ordered a #8, and it came with one free water bottle or soda, which was nice. My katsu had a great crunch and was one of the best I ever had. The sauce was like barbecue but sweeter. It complimented it well, and the complimentary salad tasted like salad. The dressing was super light and refreshing, great value for your money, and hardworking mom in the kitchen, too! Coming back here again sometime! read more

Everything is on point. I got Chicken & beef combo and it did not disappoint. One of the best Teriyaki joints Ive tasted in awhile. Will definitely stop back in when in the area!! read more

This is a great example of HOW YOU FAIL! I was in the neighborhood and decided to try something new. I'm really not a teriyaki fan, but images of traditional Chinese takeout like Sweet & Sour and Mongolia dishes were enough for me to try. Images showed reasonable portions and customers also bragged about the complimentary soup. Well, here we go. When I asked about the soup, the guy said we don't do that anymore. As I waited, takeout order after takeout order was brought up for pick up. It was a long wait, even people that ordered after I did got their orders first. When my order came, my jaw dropped, unlike the customer photos and even image on the menu board, my meal could have fit on my cell phone screen. I immediately went back to the counter and told the guy, "Hey, this is more than half the size of what's on your menu board". He responded by saying, "Those images are not accurate". I laughed, and said, "Listen, either you stir up some more food to make this meal worth what you charged, or just give me y money back". A smart person would have said, let's make this right and if they chose to say after the fact, portions are now smaller, I would be informed that I would have no need to return. Either way, I would have ate and they would still have $13 in the till. What happened was they voided the sale, the food was wasted and I left 100% unhappy, and now they have a bad review that would make any new customer question if their hunger will be satisfied here. For the record, I had one bit of the dish and it didn't even take good, so the drought of good Chinese food in South King continues. read more

I love this place. Every trip is a real pleasure. They really make the best teriyaki I think I've ever had at any teriyaki place, and I have been to a thousand of them lol. They are very fast and they are very friendly, but always professional. They seem to really care about the customer because of course they want you to come back, which I keep on doing. I've been coming here again and again since 2009 and I'm never been disappointed. I can only think of literally one thing that is not great, in fact it can be seriously irritating and I'm sure Kim's Teriyaki loses business because of it. I feel bad for them too because it really isn't there fault, and I'm not sure they could do anything about it either but it's the location itself. No matter which direction you try to enter into the parking lot from and no matter which way you try to exit the parking lot from, you'll find that your gonna often have an irritating bit of difficulty. But that's not Kim's teriyaki's fault. read more

Ordered chicken teriyaki, spicy teriyaki, yakisoba and gyoza. Everything tasted delicious! This is our go to for door dash teriyaki delivery because it's the best one in the area. They are also usually fast with great customer service for walk ins. Highly recommend when you're craving chicken teriyaki. read more

Huge pro of this business is that it is literally around the corner from where I live! Which is a hugeeeeee plus!!!! You really have to try the basic aka chicken teriyaki when trying out a new teriyaki restaurant, ALWAYS! I called for a Chicken teriyaki take out and the man who answered the phone was very friendly and professional. My order was really ready in 15 minutes as he stated. When you order a meal here, it comes with a free soda!! Which is rare now in days for a meal to come with a soda. The presentation of the Togo is very neat. First bite of the chicken was good but I'm not a huge fan of my chicken being crispy at the ends (I'm more of a grilled, juicy Chicken type of gal, LOL). The meal also came with a side salad (not pictured). Overall, their chicken teriyaki is not bad and I would definitely be back to try other delicious meals on their menu. read more

Kim's Teriyaki - 29) General Tao Chicken - Japanese Near Me - Kent, Washington

I was looking for a good teriyaki place since the one I used to go to raised their prices and they only shared about half the portion. I found Kim's teriyaki and their place was clean and the guy taking orders was really nice. The food was really good, my wife had the spicy teriyaki with level 3 hot sauce, and I got a chicken katsu. We both enjoyed our food enough that I made a yelp account. I forgot to mention the meals comes with a free canned soda which is really awesome as most teriyaki places charge you extra for a drink! I will definitely be coming back! read more

Best terriyaki in town. Highly recommend, yakisoba is reallly good and there fried rice is one of the best I've had, always friendly staff aswell read more

Great tasting food, slightly small portions for takeout and pricing (in my opinion). Good place for if you want white rice and meat. Seems to be family owned, they work very hard and are attentive to their customers. read more

Soup comes free with combo when u dine in! spacious and clean restaurant food is better then bucks teriyaki up the hill read more

Best teriyaki in Kent!!!! This small local business always provides amazing customer service and consistently fresh quality food!

Amazing service, awesome food, great atmosphere. Jay, the "face" of the place, is kind and considerate. The food is great, cooked wonderfully. The sauce is thick, without being, "burnt" or funky tasting, as some places. They allow you to get an extra scoop of rice, if you prefer, vs the salad. Salad comes with a house sauce... I've always been a ranch only person, but this sauce totally changed my mind. As another reviewer said, you do get a calm of soda free with EACH order, and can "upgrade" it to a bottle by paying the difference. I do wish you could buy the soup at any time of day... they sell larger cups of the soup you can get free, for those ordering takeout. My favorite part, is the customer service. It's beyond amazing. I'm disabled, and my orders are large, as I feed my family. Jay always packs it into a box, then carries it out to my car for me, so I don't struggle. Always a pleasure to eat here. *I'm laughing at the reviews where people actually complained because the FREE soup was thick at night... seriously? It's free. Its usually gone by lunch, so if there is any left by dinner, it's bound to not be as fresh as it was in the morning... read more

Okay teriyaki place. Food okay but, complimentary egg drop always runs out and gets a little too thick by dinner time. I wouldn't mind paying a dollar for it if I could get it fresh all day. Broccoli beef is made sweet, it really shouldn't be. Soda comes with meals, but I would rather keep my dollar, to avoid the sugar. Portions very large, and you get a ball of rice, even if you order something starchy like yakisoba. Price is okay. read more

First time trying authentic teriyaki and was looking for something quick on the way to the airport. Kim's teriyaki was quick and delicious, but the best part was the huge portions they gave! I got it to go and was surprised at how much food there was in the take out box. There was so much chicken that I could not even finish - it was very tender and the sauce was delicious as well. It came with more sauce than what I am used to (I had only had sarku Japan teriyaki prior to this), which was nice. There was also a side of salad that accompanied the meal which was good for balancing the protein overload. Unfortunately they were out of the soup when I was there but was able to substitute it for a soda. The people there are really nice and I would recommend trying it out for teriyaki lovers! read more

Really good food and great service. Every meal comes with a soda and if you dine in you get a bowl of soup as well. I always call ahead and order since it can get busy. The spicy chicken has such great flavor. read more

I tried this place due to the great reviews. Unfortunately, this place gave me an upset stomach and diarrhea. It was late afternoon, I ordered their combo with a side. Teriyaki meat was good, but the teriyaki chicken had a hard outer layer and very dry on the inside. Having years of experience in the food industry, I know what they did. They pre-cooked the chicken and re-grill it when they receive an order. Many restaurants, especially fast food, does this as a normal practice. Problem is with poor food handling or letting prepped food sit out too long. Especially with chicken as it goes bad pretty quickly when partially prepped cooked. I don't know if this is common incident with them, but as an avid foodie, I'm definitely not going back to Kims Teriyaki. A lot of people ask me about my dining experience because I do eat out every day and try all types of food. In the positive side, service was good. Negative side, food gave me diarrhea. read more

I went here based on reviews and now have a new lunch spot. I am tired of getting more breading than chicken and was pleasantly surprised when my General Tso wasn't even breaded. It was delicious and the restaurant was so clean. I was very impressed and will be back! read more

10/10. Delicious food. Highly recommend. Ordered this food online and was VERY GOOD. Best teriyaki I've had this in the area.
