Disappointing, we stopped in because it was convenient to where we were. while the portion was large on the chicken teriyaki, the sauce was very thin...like soy sauce thin. We prefer the thick sauce that coats the chicken. The Kungpao was the same chicken as the teriyaki with frozen peas and carrots with a little bit of cabbage. Runny sauce in the bottom. No peanuts. Egg rolls were ok, not greasy and they were crunchy. But the oil tasted burnt/old. They are pricey compared to similar places as well. Would not recommend read more

I really like the food here. Everything is delicious, not fancy, just good. I feel so at home, like I'm in my auntie's house. I especially like their Gyoza. The service is great and they keep the place super clean. What more can a girl ask for! I'll be back for sure. read more

Modoo Teriyaki - Teriyaki Chicken lunch special, with a side of Shrimp Tempura - Japanese Near Me - Sumner, Washington

I love everything about this place. I wouldn't change a thing. This is my favorite place to get teriyaki and just happens to be located in the town I live in. read more

Friendly employees and for Teriyaki that's under 10 bucks a plate, this place is hard to beat! Chicken was tender, rice was moist and hot, salad was tasty. I got the normal chicken teriyaki but will explore the menu on my next visit. Give this place a shot, I doubt you'll be disappointed. read more

Modoo Teriyaki - Japanese Near Me - Sumner, Washington

I'm calling it, you're not gonna find a better Teriyaki place in Pierce County, the Yakisoba is what keeps me coming back!

Clean, delicious and great customer service! This is the best mom and pop shop around. The owners are very friendly and courteous and you can tell by all the repeat customers who have become regulars. The portions are generous, the food is tasty, the prices are affordable and it is located in a convenient location. I especially like their yakisoba and gyoza. The gyoza has the perfect light crisp on the outside (most places make it too hard) with a nice, warm, soft tender inside. The yakisoba is sweet yet savory and sometimes I'll even travel from Seattle just to get some. Overall this is a very honest establishment and has a very welcoming and "homey" feeling to it! read more

See all

Just avoid, The food was reheated from earlier in the day. The mongolian beef tasted like it was cooked in dishwater. I Would Avoid this place. Portions are way off.I ordered the most expensive thing on the menu and got little portions. The chicken was barely cooked the beef was from another day. Worst food ever for a teriyaki place. Expectations are not hi if you rate this place above one star. Absolutely pathetic- I will never eat here again. But then again I am in Sumner. Not Seattle. read more

The food was good and it was quick. I asked for no rice and they gave me more salad and what seemed like a lot of chicken. Very pleased.

Smells like Mildew as soon as you walk in! Doesn't look clean at all! And the lady at the register was super rude! I wouldn't recommend it at all the Sumner location! There's a teriyaki place right around the corner that is delicious! read more

I was going to give them a four stars because they got my order wrong (definitely not kung pao), but what I got was just as wow! as the pork fried rice which was also wow! Gigantic chunks of tender pork. Plenty to share. A little pricey for my budget, but leftovers... read more

Love the food! My husband and I go here every Wednesday! I highly recommend giving this place a try!

I don't what was in the wonton soup but I was in serious stomach melt down for several hours, like Would not recommend.

My wife grew up in the Seattle/Tacoma area, and her family comes here religiously! The classic teriyaki chicken is great. We also love the gyozas. read more

Best Teriyaki in Sumner and surrounding areas hands down! Been going here for almost 5 years now! Great, friendly and fast service every time. Their gyoza is bomb .com and so is their chicken fried rice, teriyaki... everything I've tried has been delicious! I would highly recommend! read more

Love the choices they have not just a teriyaki joint. Combos are available if you can't decide. Always get order of egg rolls there are always done just right read more

This place is fantastic my favorite is the General TSo tofu. It's delicious, a great value and a much needed break from cooking dinner.

I used to go here every Friday during our football season and boy oh boy, they did not disappoint. The food I order here tastes so good that I don't even share with my teammates because it tasted like heaven. Their chicken katsu and gyoza are my personal favorites because of their authenticity and perfect amount of seasoning and texture. Definitely recommend to people who want to try original and authentic Asian food. read more

Stopped by this place located across Fred Meyer parking lot to try for dinner. Only has maybe 8 small tables. Only a couple available on a Wed. night at 5:30 as a steady stream of people came in crowding the tiny dining area the entire 40 mins. we were there. You go straight to counter to order, didn't see menus anywhere, only the menu/pics up on wall behind counter. My girlfriend and I each ordered an entree. I was hoping for a combo meal but didn't really see that option. I was happy that they had brown rice though. She ordered teriyaki chicken w/gyoza. I ordered Kung Pao Chicken. The menu board said rice and salad comes with the meals. Our meals came out within about 10 mins. Mine was super hot/steaming but disappointed that mine didn't come with some salad.I guess because mine had some cabbage and those froz. peas/carrots it cancelled out the salad, darn. Strange though I've never had this dish without the traditional peanuts on it, again darn. But, the rice perfect and chicken stir-fry tasty. It had nice ratio of grilled chicken although slightly dry on some pieces. I did appreciate the teriyaki sauce and chili sauce on the tables as I enjoy both. My friend said her teriyaki chicken wasn't real hot, strange...and also agreed that the chicken was a tad on dry side but good. She did enjoy the gyoza, rice and salad. Overall would go back, price/portion decent and although the gal running the front could have certainly used some back up help, she stayed pleasant. Not sure I've ever seen a teriyaki joint so busy, so they must be doing something right! read more

Modoo Teriyaki - Teriyaki chick w/gyoza, rice/salad, all very tasty but this visit chick not real hot and bit on dry side. - Japanese Near Me - Sumner, Washington

Subpar food. Your basic chicken teriyaki was barely Luke warm while sitting at the establishment. Also no lunch specials. $14 for drink and chicken. read more

Delicious. My favorite teriyaki in the area. I usually stick with the basic chicken/beef or spicy chicken combos and occasionally throw in an egg roll or gyoza. I haven't experimented with the other items on the menu but why bother when the regular teriyaki items on the menu leave me stuffed with a smile on my face?! read more

I cant say enough about this amazing place! we live locally and most of the time, we choose Modoo when we need a quick bite. I'm kinda of a habit buyer, but recently i decided to start trying all menu items. I seriously impressed with their pad thai! You need this yummy lunch or dinner. It will turn your sad or bad day magically into an amazing day!! read more

I travel the nation and nobody does it like Modoo. Every time I come back to the northwest we make a stop. Great price, great chicken, and the salad dressing is the best read more

This is by fR the best Teriyaki around. I would highly recommend this place. I have been going to this place for over 10 years and the owners (Tom & Tammy) are very sweet. read more

My brother-in-law used to frequent this place daily, if not multiple times a day, when he lived in WA. He took my husband and I to this joint and we weren't disappointed. My BIL is on a first name basis with the owners, who are very sweet and obviously love him lol. The food portions are generous for the price, and their spicy chicken is really good. This place is one of MANY teriyaki places in WA (who knew teriyaki was so popular in wa??) but I'd say it's one of the better ones! read more

First off, the seating area was very dirty with old food on the walls. Ordered our which came very quick. I had kung pao chicken. Absolutely horrible, very salty and chicken tasted old and dry. Daughter had sweet and sour chicken or atleast thats what they called. It didnt even look or taste like sweet and sour chicken, id say the wordt id ever tasted. Son had teriyaki chicken, he said it was good. read more

This is the worst teriyaki I have ever had. There was a small amount of meet and the quality of meat was terrible. The chicken egg rolls were full of vegatables and there was little to no meat in them at all. I ate the rice and threw the rest away. read more

This was worst experience ever. I went there for spicy teriyaki chicken and came home with food poisoning. I should have known, when I saw the old gentleman grab the meat from a metal pan next to the grill, dip it in the spicy sauce can dumped it into my container. My stir fired veggies where actually steamed and then drizzled with vinegar. My stomach was churning about 30 min later. 5 days later, I am back!! Good luck with this spot. I will never eat here again!! read more

Both my wife and i love going here. The food is consistently good. The pot stickers (goyza) are excellent. The stir fried rice is great. Good, friendly service. read more

I love this place. The staff is so friendly, fast, accommodating, and the chicken is so tasty! I think I'll go in tonight now that I'm writing this :) read more

This is most definitely my favorite teriyaki place in the Sumner area. The service is incredible and the people are truly committed to making the dining experience great. I eat here a couple times a week and every time is better than the last . I strongly recommend this teriyaki place. It makes all other Teriyaki places seem basic. read more

I hadn't eaten here in a long time, and it was better than I remembered! Huge portions, great taste and quality, and they're so nice there!!

The flavor of the spicy chicken was ok. The portion size however was pathetic.

Very nice lady, love there chicken teriyaki and fried rice! Been here a few times and everything is good! I will be back :)

The food here is awful. The staff is about memorable as the decor. This is the second time I've eaten here and there will be no further visits. Had Chicken Katsu first, today Chicken Teriyaki both not edible. Avoid! read more

Love this place. Excellent food and customer service! I love their tempura, hot and crunchy. This is my go to Teriyaki place during the week days. read more

Pretty upset right now. I used a visa gift card to pay for my food. I didn't dine in, instead I picked up my food. I didn't tip, because all they did was make the food. Come to find out, they decided to add a 20% tip onto my card. Not cool at all!!!! read more

The smell outside this place is so inviting!! New owner and it definitely shows! Restaurant windows and tables are clean now! Food is great, reasonably priced and good portion size. Maybe a smaller portion kids menu would be a great addition. Definitely recommend! read more

This is NOT the same moodoo teriyaki as in Puyallup off of 176th. There is a sign in the restaurant that they were just sold. Food is pretty bad. Moodoo used to be the only place to have tofu teriyaki but they've changed it. Sooooo bad. Husbands beef teriyaki looked anemic at best. I think they've confused soy Sauce with teriyaki. Save your money, get a pizza. read more

i had the beef and chicken, the salad,the veggies and they were all awesome. i would recommend to everyone

Came here for lunch every week when I worked across the street! The best teriyaki chicken I've ever had. No gross burnt end pieces seems like they really care about how there food looks. The noodles are delicious . Never had anything like them kind of like yakisoba noodles with a sesame oil sauce and teriyaki sauce soooooo good ! The lady at the counter is always so sweet and always thanks me for my service. Dinner prices are a tad bit higher than other joints in sumner/Puyallup but totally worth it. Delicious crispy gyoza too love the dipping sauce read more
