Delicious spot if you're craving anything teriyaki! My husband and I order two teriyaki plates and it tasted super fresh! The cashier was super friendly and helped us with our order. The inside of the restaurant is very clean. Will definitely be back! read more

Really nice, clean establishment with fast service and a friendly staff that makes you feel welcome right away. A great bonus was the sushi samples, such a nice touch and a good way to try something new before ordering. Overall, smooth experience from start to finish. I'll definitely be coming back. read more

Have awesome customer service and got food in timely fashion. But no ac hot asf in there. Chicken was cold and tasted old. The fries had sum sort of seasoning salt totally over seasoned and horribly salty. I've had better teriyaki hopefully they can step it in the future machine them another opportunity. read more

When you walk in you have the option to order from a kiosk or directly from a person, which is nice depending on your mood. The space itself is pretty small, with only about 4-5 tables, so it feels more like a quick eat-and-go spot. I got the teriyaki steak plate, and my dad got the half chicken / half teriyaki steak plate. I enjoyed my food overall. The salad was just whatever though -- honestly I could've skipped it and just gotten a bowl instead. My dad liked his meal too. He said it's not the best teriyaki spot he's had, but he would probably eat there again. We also got the ice cream churros (I ended up with the chocolate flavor). They were actually pretty good! I did notice they show other flavors on the menu, but when I ordered they didn't ask which flavor I wanted, so chocolate was just automatically given. read more

Wow is all I can say flavor and tenderness on all their meats. Don't waste your time here fast quick service. Cool little spot in Downey/ Pico area. They ain't stingy that's all I have to say. Highly recommend. read more

Teriyaki J’s - Beef 1/2 & 1/2 Combo Teriyaki Bowl - Japanese Near Me - Downey, California

Well decided to come in as I met a very confident owner a while back. Place is cozy but clean. Atmosphere is Hispanic music flowing in the air. Cozy seating for 2 mostly a 6 seat nook and a 4 seat nook facing the windows. Counter staff very friendly and knowledgeable cook staff on ready to get orders. Ordered Teriyaki steak bowl and extra protein for a extra price shrimp. My wife said a good amount for being extra. She was satisfied with her choice. I ordered a combo plate chicken and steak. Nice Lil side salad chopped lettuce with your choice of dressing which comes in a Lil to go cup with lid. Nice. The protein to rice ratio was good not all riced up. Meat cooked well and enough Teriyaki sauce and sauce it self is great most taste a little off. Very satisfying. We order egg rolls. My wife said tasted a Lil watery the sauce it came with counter acts it. Seems the rolls need a Lil flavor. More napkins 1 or 2 per person not being picky Teriyaki gets messy Price to product = 7 Note egg rolls otherwise I would have given higher Cleanliness = 8 Customer service = 8 Plating = 8 Menu = 8 Flavor = 9 I will return would like to try other things on the menu I recommend this place read more

Solid food, quick service, small hole in the wall vibes. I walked in at like a 7:30pm on a friday and walked out at 7:40 with my food. The sizing was easily enough for like 1.5 meals depending how hungry you are. Now, nothing amazing stood out from my order, fair game I ordered really basic and was in a rush, but the amount of times it can be oversweatened or just have many small problems is normal, but I don't really have any notes for it either. Like genuine solid food, The ratio for rice and meat is perfect, the sweet-savory is honestly really good (they gave me a sauce packet for more sweetness), and nothing felt old or left sitting out (sometimes the case for these restaurants quickly pushing out food). Solid 8/10, I would come again and make it a quick bite regular if i'm in the area. Price was around $15 for large. read more

Teriyaki J’s - Steak Teriyaki Plate - Japanese Near Me - Downey, California

The fried chicken wings are the worst I've ever had. I was mega hungry, and you know when you're hungry, anything tastes good. Took a bite and....well...the meat tasted old and had a tough/hard/dry texture, even though the wings were steaming hot. It's almost like they refried old wings. It was gross and really disturbing. Super bummed I wasted my money on this. read more

Cute place. The food was good but I will not be back. Stopped in before I had a 2 hour road trip. Spent $40. Yes it says no restrooms for customers but that BS! So I had to go find a fast food place to go to the restroom before hitting the road. Definitely a no go for me in the future. Damn it! Just let me go and I'll be gone. If you serve food with sit down atmosphere to the public have a damn bathroom we can use. read more

Teriyaki J's stands out because the food and service work together to make every visit feel worth it. The teriyaki bowls come out hot, perfectly glazed, and packed with flavor, but what really sets the place apart is the staff. From the moment you walk in, the team greets you like a regular, takes time to get your order right, and actually checks in to make sure everything tastes good. They're quick when it's busy, patient when you're deciding between spicy or mild, and always friendly even during the lunch rush. It's that mix of consistent, well-seasoned food and genuinely attentive customer service that keeps people coming back -- you leave full, but also like someone actually cared about your meal.I would come back here again. read more

Food was out standing , some of the best teriyaki around . Service great very friendly and fast. Ambiance nice read more

The teriyaki chicken plate is well balanced at reasonable price. Food taste good. Definitely will come back again. The place is really small. Not a place for dating nor business. Just to get good food for lunch and on the go. read more

Teriyaki Js is a well known neighborhood quick and affordable eatery, devoted to making teriyaki bowls and plates to satisfy any appetite. Their in-house teriyaki sauce is the cherry on top! I love their bold flavors and how cheap it was! This restaurant is quite small, I got a small window seat, and noticed they had a lot of takeout orders. Regardless of how you order, rest easy knowing you're having excellent food!! read more

Establishment is very clean both guys working are very polite Reasons for my 2 stars are: *ordered chicken and steak plate got only chicken (and I paid more for this) *change salad to steam veggies wasn't an add on it was to have it instead of ( charged me $2 more) *1/4 of the plate was empty just had the sauce in there *charged me a convenience fee 3.5% to pay w card *portion was small for a ("plate") Overall overpriced, portions are regular size, double checking the order before packing it would be nice and also mentioning for what your charging extra for goes a long way (maybe next customer) Don't intend on returning Paid $29 for a plate and 4 egg rolls that's very pricy You look at the picture and let me know read more

I decided to give this spot a try after seeing it pop up on Instagram a few times by some trusted foodies I follow. It was a Friday night and not very busy. The place is a hole in the wall but had plenty of parking. I got the bacon cheeseburger combo and my husband got the teriyaki beef bowl. The cheeseburger was ok until I got to the bacon. The bacon was terrible. It tasted like reheated oil. My fries weren't cooked through either. My husband's teriyaki bowl was also awful. The beef in his bowl also tasted preheated and salty which made it rubbery. All in all I would say skip this place. It's not worth the hype at all. read more

The place is small and there is no restroom . Aside from that the food is delicious 8/10 just because there was no restroom and to me that is very important to able to wash my hands before I eat. read more

Burgers are great! Teriyaki chicken is good, just added noodles to their menu and I'm looking forward to going back and trying them.

The teriyaki chicken bowl is delicious and inexpensive. The service is fast and friendly. It's a small place but looks comfortable. This is a great place to get a delicious meal on the go. read more

I'm becoming a regular here as this honestly is a solid spot to have lunch at. The food is always bomb and fairly priced, very worth it. The inside of the store has cool decor and style. The service is friendly and easy going, which I really appreciate. Ordering online is seamless and they offer little deals too. I'm vegetarian and the tofu option is actually very very good. read more

The restaurant was incredibly warm. Albeit it's been in the 90's, but it was very hot. We ordered our dinners "ToGo" I ordered a bowl, grilled shrimp teriyaki. I was asked if I wanted onions & sesame seeds. I said yes to the scallions, no to the sesame seeds. Huh ? I got exactly the opposite. Other than that, I thought it was good. read more

Wow !! Microwave beef and chicken plate . Noodles were cold and flavorless. Green salad was ok .

Food is great and amazing customer service! Their teriyaki chicken and steak plate is my favorite. A must have if you're craving teriyaki and in the area. read more

My kiddo is a teriyaki chicken bowl fan. Sometimes the quality of his favorite food varies from place to place. I ended up finding this great spot 5 minutes away from us. Teriyaki J's meets all the right requirements: food is great, especially for the price! We know inflation is a current issue everywhere. Prices are rising and it's affecting everyone. The prices here can't be topped! The staff here is so friendly and professional. I've been here over a dozen times and the service is always A+ ! Every single time I've visited the restaurant has always been clean. I love that! This shows that they take pride in their establishment. If you visit, take the time to read the owner and founders story on their wall. Last but not least, I'm only mentioning their chicken teriyaki bowl but their menu is so diverse. Check it out! There's something for everyone. read more

Today was my first time trying this place. I got the teriyaki burrito. The cashier was very helpful when I told her it was my first time there. The inside of the location is pretty small; maybe it can fit about 15 people. I took my food to go. Once I got home and started to eat, I noticed that the burrito had decent flavor, but I did notice that I was eating more rice than steak meat. I'll try this place again, but I'll try something different on their menu. read more

Teriyaki J’s - Inside - Japanese Near Me - Downey, California

I've been coming here for the past month for my lunch break at work here in the city of Downey. I have to say this is a great restaurant. I've tried a number of things from Burger, the beef plate, a veggie plate the shrimp and jalapeño poppers. All were good ! Not saying it as a surprise but more so a testament to their consistency. Service is always very professional and thorough and although I take my food to go, there's plenty of seating and TVs if you decide to stay to enjoy your food in house. The atmosphere inside is very warm and more than welcoming. Forgive me for not having pics in my rating. I just always forget by the time I'm done eating. ^__^ read more

I wish I could give this place more stars, but their wings disappointed me. I ordered a small bowl of chicken teriyaki, which was good, but their spicy Korean wings were way too salt. I saw a comment that mentions this as well and it's true, I ordered a 10 piece and I could only eat 4 because of how salty they were. I think this place has potential because their chicken teriyaki was good, but their wings need improvement. read more

Sooo salty! We were driving up north and decided to stop by Teriyaki Js for lunch. We got the chicken teriyaki plate which was good. Beef teriyaki plate ( meat was dry and overcooked) Korean wings combo & buffalo wings. My Korean wings were so salty i couldn't eat more than 2 pcs. It's like they mistakenly added salt instead of sugar to the sauce. Buffalo wings were also on the saltier side also. The fries that came with the combo was good. Hopefully they see this and fix it because the cook was really nice & told us how he branched out and opened his own business after learning the recipes from working elsewhere. read more

Teriyaki J’s - Chicken Bowl - Japanese Near Me - Downey, California

Ambiance: This place seems to be popular, decent amount of people inside during lunch, seated and in line. Couple tables and a countertop to choose from. Service: Fast service, line moved fairly quickly, and got my meal just as quick. Really an in and out experience. Easy and smooth. Food: The flavor on the steak was really good, and from the top, it looks like a lot of meat. But once you get into it, the ratio of rice and meat is not ideal. I would've been better off just getting the small size; it seemed like the same amount of steak. Tasted pretty good the next day but had so much rice leftover. read more

Very fresh & delicious! Was our first time since we were in the area, will most likely return whenever we're around.

Stopped in for a last minute meal. The bowl was a bit underwhelming. Wish the meat had a grilled or char taste to it but its flavor is a little lacking. The rice was standard. Wanted to love this place but it was ok. Not bad. I might try again-maybe it was a bad day? read more

This is probably my favorite Teriyaki spot in the area! Their food is very good and bursting with flavors. I've only had the Teriyaki Beef and Chicken and both are very good. Today I tried the Boneless Wings, I ordered the Teriyaki flavor. They were good but I probably should have tried another flavor, that was my bad. Over all as mentioned, this is my go to place when craving Teriyaki. read more
