Delicious, simple food! They don't skimp on portions, perfect for a quick meal and plenty of options to boot! The teriyaki chicken is definitely the star of the show! read more

I'm usually a 5 star kinda guy... So I think I might have set my expectations too high. But what can you expect for a random Asian restaurant in Placerville. OK, the redeeming factors here are the service and staff. Everyone was so friendly and accommodating that I wouldnt have minded the food. But service was also pretty fast.. So after hitting that Davis traffic up here, I was just ready to eat. Ambiance is a meh... Can't complain, place was clean, and organized. Restrooms were clean also and did the job. As for the food... It's great for a quick fix... If you're hungry, these dishes are massive for what it's worth. I wanted to try the seafood rice roll and it was an interesting take. I was confused but amused by this attempt. A lot of shrimp... But I read in the reviews some had scallops as well?? Not mine. My issue is we also ordered the noodles and it all tasted the same. Maybe that might away my review up a star or few. But by the time I got through leftovers, it was a lot of the same thing... Keeping this review for now...but I'm always open for second chances. read more

5/20/2025: Teriyaki Junction--SEAFOOD inhalation times three meals~LOL! Unfortunately, TJ ran out of scallops for seafood menu items and no regular sugar packets provided, either--WAAAAAAAH! Seafood was egregiously BLAND . . . I must doctor meal upon the inhalation session commencing at my humble abode! BTW: The sauce accompanying the seafood combo tasted weird and OLD so, I didn't use it. read more

My son and I love this place for a quick healthy lunch! They give you enough for two lunches in one! It's reasonably priced too!

They are very nice here. Greeted us as soon as we walked in. Foods are good. Water tasted good. You can get your own refill soda. read more

Wow! What happened to customer service??? I just called at 6:40pm and the guy that answered, picks and says 'hello?' No business name,just hello. I had to ask if it was Teriyaki Junction and he says 'yeah, can I get you something?' Bad start in conversation. I said one it item and he goes', is that it? I said the second item then I just got a bad impression and I just canceled because of lack of customer service communication skills! He really didn't want to take my order. I used to love their food here and never had any issues until now. Train your employees on how to communicate in a business! read more

Teriyaki Junction Delicious here, and they are always open when they say they're gonna be open. Unlike some other places that I won't mention, their hours are accurate. Their neighbor who serves similar foods, which I was going to frequent today, can't get their act together. I purchased two combo # 2 and they were yummy. My friend and I enjoyed every bite. Teriyaki Junction, I am so sorry you were number two today but in the future, you will be number one. Thank you as usual for your deliciousness, consistency, and excellent customer service. read more

Stopped by and ordered a Bento box with teriyaki chicken to go. Chicken was tender and tasty. I will substitute brown rice instead of the white rice next time as that's my healthy preference. Other than that, it was tasty and the price was right. read more

Good place, good atmosphere, I recommend! I was there 3 times! Last time I tasted delicious food Marakana!

Came here because my daughter wanted sushi. $6 for a California roll 6 piece ($1 a piece) okay little high but maybe it's good. I ordered the sushi combo, my total came to $29.99. I'm thinking dang, $23 for a plate of sushi. That's a lot. We get our food. The California roll looks as you'd think. But honestly I'm very disappointed in the amount and quality of the food. This was not worth $23, raleys and Safeway makes better sushi with much more flavor. Disappointed to say the least but at least our tummies are full. read more

Staff was nice. Place was clean and easy to find. Food was delicious. Sesame chicken was nice and crispy with a nice sauce. Rice was spectacular and absolutely deliciously. gyoza was average, and the california roll was actually quite good! One of the better cali rolls i've ever eaten. Salad was okay. Dressing wasn't nice, and was kinda watery. Tasted almost like Italian, this is not Italian food! Overall recommend. read more

I didn't take any photos because I was so hungry but this place was so good! A little place in a strip mall with big flavor. I heard about them because a friend of mine shot their photos so I was excited to try it! It was very yummy. Their sushi was fresh and the salmon I got was cooked well with yummy sauce. Stop here on your way to Lake Tahoe! read more

Their chicken teriyaki is moist, tastes great and has great grill flavor. Still sad there's no more bibimbap though.

Ordered 2 combo ck+Bf+Pk and the taste was no good. Not even a little. I don't understand how the reviews for this place were high..Maybe the people who ate here were high as a kite because this place is terrible. We ended up throwing half of it away and ordering elsewhere. Oh that's right..I ordered the "Sushi Deluxe". The so called sushi isn't sushi at all. Terrible cooked unagi and deep fried shrimp. The rice was rubbery and while I enjoy using chop sticks, I couldn't use them at all. I switched to a fork because everything would just fall apart. Not one thing was good about this place. Seriously.. not one thing. read more

Teriyaki Junction - Receipt showing what we ordered - Japanese Near Me - Placerville, California

I placed an order thru door dash. I got a bento box which advertised the fish was "grilled" and came with rice, salad and Vegetable tempura. Not only did I not get any tempura but the fish was NOT grilled. It looked like it was steamed with no seasoning whatsoever. It was NASTY. When I called to complain they said the Managua's gone home but he would call me the next day. They took my info. Not only did he or she NOT call me the next day but not the day after. I will never order from them again and encourage other people not to as well!!! read more

Great service. Awesome food. Nice place to take out the family to eat. I love you teriyaki junction.

Teriyaki Junction never disappoints. The food is 10/10 and every single time I call in an order to go it's ready in like 10 mins. The people here are super friendly and knowledgeable about the food and ingredients. So many veggie options! read more

Fast service and good amount of food for the price. Staff was friendly, would go back again!

Very friendly and helpful counter person. Portions were plentiful. The salmon and sushi were great. The rice was delicious. There was a bit too much sauce for me, so next time I'll ask them to go easy on it. read more

Great service, but I wasn't crazy about my food like I normally am. I feel bad posting for posting this, but just being honest.

Absolutely delicious! Not from around town but we luckily stumbled across this place. I got the salmon stir and my boyfriend got the chicken stir. They have a patio area but if you get a beer or wine, you must sit inside. Will be back next time we are in town! read more

I was so sad to get food that was over cooked and weird. My husband and I ordered the Combo plates with beef teriyaki and we were so excited. We moved here 10 months ago and we have been trying to have good sushi and teriyaki in Placerville. Honestly, we were in a hurry tonight and we're hoping for the best but truly let down by the overcooked Gyoza and the beef teriyaki that had a thick sauce and weird flavor. I don't suggest any of these items. The California rolls were basic but at least they tasted good. It sucks because eating out is EXPENSIVE anywhere you go these days so eating for two being $40 you want it to be good. This was not.....maybe there is something else on the menu that's delicious and we missed it but I do not suggest anything with the beef teriyaki or the gyozas. read more

Stopped here on the way to the Bay Area from Tahoe. We called ahead and ordered chicken teriyaki with broccoli and brown rice, my husband ordered a biminbap bowl with extra meat. Food was ready just a few moments after we arrived, perfect timing. My chicken teriyaki was good, chicken seemed good quality, broccoli was cooked well. My only issue was that it appeared as though they poured a little too much teriyaki sauce on top of everything. Most of the rice was overly saturated with teriyaki sauce, which ruined most of the rice for me. My husband's biminbap had plenty of meat, however it was COLD while my chicken was warm. The meat in his dish was also quite tough. He said his meal was forgettable but he saw some chicken katsu getting cut up which he said looked appealing. Perhaps we will try that if we return. read more

I don't know if there are new owners now but the food is not what it used to be. I ordered a chicken. Bento box and the chicken was dry and chewy. Tasted a little burnt. The other person I was with got the seafood platter and could not figure out what she was eating so poured soy sauce On it. It is not good anymore read more

Good but pretty average. There was no lacking in flavor or anything, it was teriyaki sauce with chicken. I did like the portions though, it was a pretty big plate per serving which was nice. read more

Disappointed. Ordered lemon chicken and received sesame chicken. Rice in sushi was rubbery. Combo meal was not tasty. Gyozas overcooked. Not a fan. Two stars for large quantity of food - though would have strongly preferred smaller portion size with better quality. read more

Chicken Bowl and FitBowl are 5/5. That being said I have NOT explored their beef or fish options. Its a great tasting chicken and rice combo with sweet teriyaki. The fit bowl includes brocoli for an extra $2 dollarish and brown rice which makes it the perfect post-workout meal. It WILL fill you up, yet still feel quite healty and light enough to enjoy the rest of your day without feeling sluggish. The owner is quite nice and willing to accomodate your requests. Lets be honest and clear, this isn't a high end joint, its a small mom & pop lunch kind of place. Don't ding this place if compared to a full service restaurant. Would highly reccomend their chicken bowls as a casual lunch option. read more

Don't order the sushi. I also ordered a tofu stir fry over noodles and that was OK. If you've ever eaten sushi at any self respecting restaurant or in any city, don't order the sushi here. Shrimp over cooked as hell, all rolls had chunks of immigration crab (not even a mix), and the sushi rice was distinctly sour. Choose wisely, don't eat the sushi. read more

I had the sesame chicken --worse I've ever had. Super dry and tasteless. The tempura shrimp and vegetables were disgusting with no flavor. The California roll tasted fishy--like been sitting around for days. Entire meal inedible! Do not eat here. read more

Really good food with not too much oil! I prefer Japanese food to Chinese. I have the seafood combo every time we go. My husband has #1 Combo which has chicken, beef and pork. Plenty of food is served and you can eat in or take out. Beer and wine is available, as well as water and soft drinks. Customer service is always great! Convenient location right off the highway. read more

The best fish and chip place around excellent service. Prices and food. You won't find anything anywhere. Else that's. This good. A must try. I usually buy two meals for myself just because I can't. Decide on just one it's that ggood read more

Delicious food, the chicken and beef are grilled to perfection every time I have ordered. The portions are perfect (not too much not too little). The Snap bowl is my go-to and I am never tired of it. The teriyaki sauce on the side along with the cooked veggies over the brown rice serving as well as the chicken!? My mouth is watering just writing this review. Service is always kind. Especially the cooks, every single time I go in they recognize me and acknowledge. (Smallest details matter most to me). I appreciate this teams hard work as it shows in the flavors and neatly crafted meals. read more

Tastes like salty dog food. Beef is drenched in Teriyaki and the meat was dry. The salad was pure iceberg lettuce and the dressing was super bland. Over cooked rice. I hate posting negative reviews but... read more
