Combination 34 Teriyaki Chicken with General Tao's Chicken Combo (Substituted for Spicy Chicken Teriyaki Instead)
Jordan D.

Little Tokyo has always been my go to teriyaki joint ever since I was a kid. Not only is the teriyaki delicious but their portions are crazy generous. I usually always get the Spicy Chicken Teriyaki but decided to try out the General Taos Chicken as well today. The portion was huge! It could definitely feed 2 people. The taste was good as always, I liked how the General Taos was still a bit crispy. It doesn't come with a salad though, but that's okay because it was still bomb!

Super bomb!!! The chicken was crunchy, saucy, and spicy, customer service fast and very tentative.

First time trying Little Tokyo and I must say I'm impressed. This is some of the BEST Chinese food I've had in a long time !! I got the chicken Katsu made spicy in a combo with sesame chicken and I asked for a side of sweet and sour sauce for my rice- they gave me three packets which was pretty nice, I really only expected one ! The food was made and delivered quickly and tasted fresh and delicious!! I'm moving towards the end of the year but until then this will be my go to restaurant when I have a hankering for some Chinese food !

It was my partner and I first time dining at Little Tokyo. I had the chance to enjoy honey garlic chicken which I give a 10/10. The portion was huge. The flavor was exactly how you'd imagine honey garlic to taste- Sweet and savory. My partner chose to get chicken Katsu and gave the dish a 7/10. The presentation was nice, the chicken was crispy and juicy, and the salad was refreshing with their house dressing. Service was good. We had to walk up to the counter to order and pay for our food. And then we chose our own seating and the food was then brought to our table with utensils all under 15 minutes. Highly recommend if you love Asian style food.

Staying at a hotel nearby and was looking for something quick and easy. The food came impressively fast, but a bigger surprise was that food was really good. I give it five stars on food alone, but the small dining room left a little to be desired. Still, as most of their business is takeout, this place does the job very well. PS..it's not Chinese as some have stated, it's Japanese. For the record, I had teriyaki chicken (all thigh meat, which I much prefer) plus gyoza. Comes with small salad. (Sorry, photo taken when I was halfway through. Portions are huge!)

1. Stir Fried Tofu

Doesn't look like much when you walk past or when you walk in, but the food tells a completely different story. I don't think I've ever had teriyaki until this place, usually because at almost every teriyaki establishment there's nothing for vegetarians to eat. This place, however, proved different. I knew as soon as I walked in to pick up carry out by the way it was full inside and everyone being a person of color, that the food would be fire. I got the stir fry tofu with nuts. I wasn't sure how it would taste with almonds on top, but I gave it a whirl and I'm so glad I did. The food was absolutely delicious, packed cleanly, and they got the order ready in less than ten minutes. I'm definitely coming back the next time I'm in Washington and trying other vegetarian-friendly items. I'm already craving it again. Bless Little Tokyo Teriyaki.

Their chicken teriyaki is delicious and their portions are good too

Really quick with your order and their portions are great. So happy to have a good teriyaki spot so close to home.

Came for dinner last night and it was everything I expected. When they first opened this location,…read moreI had tried it and there were a couple of environmental things (it was super cold inside) that I didn't like, so I waited to do this review to fix some of the issues. The food is still top notch and the service is speedy. But the restaurant is now very warm. The floors are really slippery so be careful, but it's a nice fast paced Chinese restaurant you can get dim sum instead of the normal yum cha times of seattle Chinatown. If you want really good Chinese food at breakneck speeds, want to feel like you're at your Chinese ma's house as she's yelling at the kids in the background, this is it! We even had a loud Chinese conversation that I had to tell my husband "shes not angry, just very busy and trying to get orders out". The only annoying thing is their uber eats notification is consistently on fire. Dinged enough to notice it through the entire meal.

I can't say how much I am glad that they exist here in Tacoma. Esp. Now that their Seattle location…read morehas closed. I have been here multiple times - take out orders, uber eats, group gatherings, even by myself. Each time I have been so happy with the food and the taste! It is hard to find good quality Chinese food and this place hits the spot. The service can be better but to me, that's not what I can for and actually adds to the ambience hehe! Good eats and will def come here over and over again.

I was looking for a quick and affordable food spot nearby as my boyfriend and I were waiting for…read moreour groomer to get our dogs ready for a wedding. I definitely shouldn't have thought jajangmyeon as my first option but I was also super hungry and it was the cheapest thing on the menu, while I was also thinking it wouldn't take that long. Plus they were open early which was great as we were in the area around 10am! When we arrived, there was a older gentleman who greeted us then looked like he was prepping for the day. He can speak Korean and English just fine too. Once we were ready, we placed an order of jajangmyeon and egg rolls and he brought us out banchan. I did ask for more daikon but he seemed to have forgotten or maybe left as his daughter was there delivering food, tea and taking orders. She was a lot more attentive, she would check in on customers and was very friendly! Also it turns out that my boyfriend's friend who he has known since high school was that female employee, so for those saying the owners have changed, they have not. There is plenty of seating at this food court as well as other options from sushi, Korean food and and this spot that serves Korean-Chinese food. The lighting here is a bit dark but it is light enough to take different photos. It's not too cold nor hot either. You can also leave your plates, utensils and trash on the table and someone will come get it. The jajangmyeon was really good, I was surprised as I feel like there aren't too many places that have good jajangmyeon in Lakewood but I can say it is way better than the other places that serve in the area. I usually don't scoop up the sauce but it was actually really good. They offer kimchi, onion and daikon for their side dishes which I think is perfectly fine. They do offer refills and when I asked for more daikon, the kind female employee even gave me extra vinegar. My boyfriend said the egg roll was pretty good too. We look forward to coming back!

This is my favorite spot at this location. Literally everything I have had from here is amazing…read morelife-changing Chinese food. Plus you get really good kimchi for free. It's amazing services always quick and pleasant. Prices are a little high, but you get a lot of food for the price. The only downside I would say is the ambiance is not that great, it's a food court so... But not like a food court in the mall this is all like authentic food.

While they call themselves an Asian buffet place, there was enough American food for any picky eaters. My five year old had a blast tasting everything. He ate several helpings and cleaned every single plate. Things we ate and recommend trying - 1. Sushi - very good variety, enjoyed most of the rolls. 2. Baked Clams - Mwaah! so good - this would be my favorite! 3. Soup and noodles from the live station - turned out very flavorful. 4. Many variety of deserts but the Creme Brelee was particularly good. 5. Kids will love the chocolate mountain with marshmallows. 6. Lots of variety of fish, pasta, and chicken dishes - all tasted very good. This buffet is a steal for the weekend prices compared to other places and for the amazing spread they offer. Kids are priced by age which in my opinion is the most reasonable thing to do. Plenty of parking - so no concern over there and plenty of seating inside - no matter when you go, you should be able to get in without wait time for small parties. Super kid friendly in terms of food and flavors - enough to work with picky eaters.
