Starting a new restaurant series starting from my zip code 20724 in Maryland City/Russett where I live and going every direction. Got around to trying Teriyaki & Sushi on Saturday, 7/26. I had gone in several months ago when they first opened and learned they own the Charley's Steaks in this same center. Prices looked reasonable.
Staff was nice answering questions about the rices vs noodles. I got the chicken teriyaki. At some point, I'll want to try their beef, but I'm very limiting red meat right now and mainly sticking with chicken & turkey as well as seafood at times. I settled on the fried rice, which was not an upcharge. My girlfriend got the shrimp teriyaki.
They were pretty quick, and it was a lot of rice & good amount of chicken. Hers had less shrimp than my chicken, but shrimp was only $1 more. It was a lot of food, and this was the single BEST Teriyaki I've ever had. I tried my g/f shrimp & she tried my chicken. I thought her shrimp was great too. I've Sarku Japan in malls, a local place in Kensington with a friend, & a couple of others, and this was the single BEST. Also, the guy making our meal asked if we wanted more sauce; I said no more teriyaki sauce, extra sugar we don't need. But we got their special orange sauce, which was good too, as well as sesame seeds.
The one downside was my weight was +1.8 lbs the next morning. This might be more of a consideration if we were splitting the meal, eat half & save as a leftover or eat for lunch and eat little for dinner. We ate dinner a bit on the late side around 7:45 by the time we got home, so didn't help either. I kind of thought it wasn't going to be a ton of food comparable to what you get at Sarku. Overall, a great meal in spite of the weight gain. read more
