Beef Terriakyi was OK. The beef was thin, charred and chewy but Terriakyi sauce made up for it. Rice was rice. It would be nice if vegetables were added but would mean smaller portions. Employee were nice so I don't think the beef was their strong suite. I'll be back for the chicken Terriakyi! read more

Food was ok. They use dark meat chicken in the chicken teriyaki which I'm not a huge fan of

Service was 5 star. I had the miso ramen and the broth was amazing. I'm from Hawai'i where ramen/saimin is popular and it definitely made me feel like I was back at home. The person who took our order at the front immediately welcomed us and the woman who brought our food was also very kind. Definitely going back to try more items on the menu. read more

this place is really good. I like the chili yakisoba it is good. I like the orange chicken too, that is good too. I like the crab puffs too, it is good too. Everything is good too. I love Tokyo sop! -Jame the notable yelp reviewer read more

I looked over at some other folks eating meat over rice, and those looked like better offerings. Sadly, the ramen was on par with dorm room cooking and should be avoided. The noodles were actually not half bad, it was everything else that let it down. And what was up with dining in out of a paper soup bowl? The pork slices were dry and bland. Not even a good soak in the just salty broth could wake it up. Interestingly half of the bowl was filled with bean sprouts. In itself that's not a problem, but it meant that it took up room that could have been occupied by some other treats. Not a ramen stop by any means. Of note, it's next to a Japanese grocery store and a Japanese bakery. read more

After eating Katsudon, my friend and I got diarrhea. I did notice a strange odor when I had it. I believe they precooked the food and then reheated it after the order was placed. So let down. read more

Best teriyaki I've ever had and has a nice char taste to it absolutely wonderful and the price is well worth it

Great food! I had the H lunch plate. Not sure if owner but the older gentleman behind counter was great to talk to and super helpful. Get the crab puffs! read more

Food could be better... but love how fast their service is and everyone is friendly. Their curry is delicious, however their beef Bulgogi needs more protein. Too much veggies and maybe 1oz protein. read more

Amazing food and super quick service. The man working the front counter is always ni e and pleasant. I can say this is an all-time favorite quick service restaurant. The Bento lunch boxes are a good value as well. read more

I go here a couple times a week, it's close to the office, has good food for a fair price, the couple that run the place are humble and sweet. I'm still trying separate items on the menu but so far it's all pretty good with Teriyaki Chicken being my staple. I highly recommend the place read more

From the front, the store looked nondescript, but when you entered, it was surprisingly (and thematically) well decorated! I immediately was greeted by an enthusiastic "how are you." The owner(?) was so friendly! It did smell kinda weird, but i was to-go ing so it wasn't a problem. Ordered the teriyaki chicken and it was pretty good and sizable for the price! Since it was so sizable it did get too one-toned towards the end, but it definitely intrigued me enough to want to try their other dishes. I mean, the dish was simple, but it was done properly. So yeah, I will definitely come back read more

Dude. You need to try this place. Absolutely killer food 20/10 recommended. If you are a vegetarian then please do your self a favor and try the orange tofu. You won't be disappointed! read more

I didn't realize Tokyo Stop had a katsu+curry combination plate. I definitely had to try it! The katsu was perfectly crispy. The curry was "Korean" style. It was unexpected but it was still good. read more

Looking for a fast meal and ended up hitting up this place. Ordered the spicy pork bulgogi. The place was busy but the wait for the food was pretty painful...I was starting to get worried until the food finally came. It was absolutely delicious. It had the perfect amount of spiciness and was cooked the perfection. Good combination of veggies as well in the mix. Overall, great place to grab some grub but make sure you have some time to wait...it might be a bit slow. read more

First time there. Huge portions, so unless you are starving or want to share, get the smaller size. I had teriyaki chicken and a salad. Chicken was mostly good, but had a good share of dry pieces. It also could have used a little bit more teriyaki sauce, and green onion, but otherwise it was delicious. The salad was fresh, but the ginger dressing is too watered down. They should taste their dressing and adjust how watery they make it because it was like ginger water. For the price you can't beat it and it's authentic Japanese. Plus they were practicing safe distancing and wear masks in front, but I don't know about the cooks wearing masks. read more

Large portions and quick service. Great option if you just want something easy for lunch. Food is also pretty good but I guess it can depend on what you order. read more

The food here is great, and the service is also stellar. My two star review is due to the excessive use of styrofoam and plastic packaging. I used to eat here regularly, but I have stopped because I feel uncomfortable with the amount of non-biodegradable garbage I was producing. There is really no excuse to continue using styrofoam when there are so many modern alternatives on the market. Even when you eat in the restaurant, they serve all food in styrofoam. When the packaging changes, I will come back! read more

Looking at all the reviews seems like either I ordered the wrong dish or the chef was on break and someone else made the dish. Chicken in Chicken Katsu was nothing like I ate in other Japanese restaurants, it was hard, dry and no flavor. I don't think I will go back again and if I had to I will get something else but nothing fried. read more

The portions were generous and the taste was pretty good. I got the house chili lunch bento, which comes with a drink for 9.99 plus tax. The chicken was tender and had a nice char. The food was greasy so kimchi or pickles would have been a nice addition. The vegetables were fresh and had a nice crunch still. The mix consisted of zucchinis, carrots, and cabbage. The charred carrots were really good. They tasted like sweet potatoes when roasted more black. I wish they were grilled more longer. On the same note, the rangoons needed to cook a little longer. They were a bit doughy, but still tasted fine. I was expecting cream cheese only, the crab was a pleasant surprise. It's out of the way, but I will probably be back. It's a really good price compared to what you can get at McDonald's. I rather spend my money here. The owner was really friendly. read more

The food is always great and fresh here and the prices are a good deal for the lunch combo. The owner is super friendly and seems very appreciative everyone customers come in. Food is always hot and fast and delicious read more

Taste mediocre. Water was awful. Didn't feel it's a clean or decent place. Would not come back.

This spot always makes good food that reminds me of the teriyaki places in Seattle. This place is always pretty fast with delivery. Def recommend. read more

I guess we went on a bad day.. teriyaki chicken is just plain grilled chicken thigh meat with a thick teriyaki sauce poured over it.. similar to the mall food court. The orange chicken was nasty. Hard as rock chicken pieces which again had an orange sauce dumped on it.. mall food court style! The crab puffs and egg roll.. just don't order these and save yourself the aftertaste of greece and crab. All in all.. never again. read more

See all

I love their Teriyaki chicken I come here like once a week it's so filling and freakin delicious.

No flavor. Dry. Bland. The food tastes like, well, you know when food is cooked with rancid oil? Hard, brittle, and over cooked. It's bad, bad. I ordered yaki soba and that's the only thing I tried from here. I won't be returning to try anything different. Yuck! read more

When me and my girlfriend needed some Japanese food quickly, we went here. It was close, cheap, and looked pretty darn Japanese to us. When we got there, I knew we had chosen well. The customers, the staff, the surrounding buildings; all pointing to the fact that this little shopping center had been established by Japanese people, and was still being run by them. The man who took our order was patient with us, who had walked in having no clue what to get. I got the Curry Pork, and my girl got the pho (or ramen, I don't remember). The curry was great. Not on the same level as CoCo Ichibanya, but definitely better than most other places. That's all I really have for this one. Good place, good food. read more

Amazing curry chicken. Addicted. Gotta get here before 6pm though. Seriously skip the tourist stuff and get the curry chicken.

Excellent restaurant. All three of us ordered different food and we were all 100% satisfied. Definitely will come back.

Awesome spot! Called in an order on my lunch break and was told it would be ready in 10 minutes. It was ready as soon as I got there and exactly what I wanted. Awesome food and staff and in a great spot! read more

Decent price and big portions. I like that it's very clean inside. You can dine in but they have limited seating. We tried their chicken curry/Katsu and bulgogi. Very tasty. I would definitely would try this place out again. read more

Beef had no taste, rice had no taste, greasy, egg rolls miniature don't know what was inside, I have no idea, no taste, no taste, what can I say.. read more

Small establishment that just kept getting more people. I'm a first timer and I think my wife and I chose a good spot. Kind of hard to park as it's in a very small strip mall type location. Not a lot of seating but the service and food are above average. Portion sizes are more than enough. My wife has the hot and spicey dish which was a little dry but tasted good. I had the G lunch box which was good and could have been better if I ordered the fried rice instead of white. Quick service makes this a good place for a grab and go type lunch break. Reasonable pricing for grab n go. read more

I've been going here for lunch for over 6 years now. Clearly a family owned joint that cares about making each customer feel valued and welcome. Listen, it's not the greatest food in the world, but for the price and service it's damn good! I LOVE the hot and spicy chicken or beef. My mouth waters very time I think about smothering it in Sriracha sauce. The veggies and rice are good, but there are times the veggies could be fresher. There are other times it's great though. I usually ask for extra veggies so i can pretend I'm being healthy. Well, that, and the fact that they don't give you much with the regular sized plate. The extra veggies are free too. The teriyaki chicken is very good as well as the bulgogi. The food is cooked fresh and the service tells you that they are really doing everything they can to make you happy. Check it out for a quick lunch, but beware there can be long lines around 12:45. It's hit or miss. If its too busy check out the Original Hoagie Shop next door for amazing food and service as well. read more

Really not impressed. At all. I judge a Japanese restaurant by their katsudon. In this case, it was really "ma ma"--"not so good" in Nihongo (Japanese). As a matter of fact, I quit eating it after the second bite and ordered a tonkotsu ramen. This was definitely not a traditional katsudon. Instead of a sliced katsu, steeped in shoyu sauce base with cooked mixed egg and onion slices on top of rice, it was sort of chunks of katsu with sort of egg mixed in with large chopped pieces of onion sort of mixed in with rice--and no shoyu-based sauce. Very dry. Not appetizing. And the katsu was over-cooked and somewhat tough. I would give this katsudon only 1.5 stars. The ramen was better. Decent broth, decent ingredients. However, there was way too much bean sprouts in it which totally got in the way of enjoying the noodles. I really didn't like it being served in a paper cup/bowl, either. I would give the ramen 3 stars. I had a bite of my wife's yakisoba. It was OK, not great. Maybe 2.5 or 3 stars. Service was very friendly. I do not think he is Nihonjin, though or else he really does not know the language because the little Japanese I spoke to him in Japanese tradition, he kind of mumbles something inaudible back. read more

This place is still going strong during the pandemic. Maybe one or two dine in seats, otherwise I get it to go. All employees have masks. I always order the lunchbox combos here, so I can't comment on anything else. They are pretty sizable portions so I usually get about two lunches worth out of one order. A great balanced lunch as well for one price ~8$. My main pick is chicken teriyaki (they also have yakisoba and a spicy veggie entre I think) , comes with rice, salad or edamame, and choice egg roll, crab puff, gyoza, or California roll, and a drink (I usually pick green tea) Can't beat it check their menu for exact combos. read more

When I first moved to Arizona (11 years ago) I missed good Japanese food. Little did I know that a few minutes from where I worked there was this little treasure. It's great. Over the years I've seen different owners come and go and the food somehow stays the same. I suppose if it aint broke don't go f'ing around with it. The Yakisoba is good. The combo chicken teriyaki with veggies is good. A large is food enough for three people easily. Unless you are completely famished. The green tea they have makes you feel like you are cleaning out all the impurities from the weekend and putting something good in your body. They have a limited delivery zone and it has to be over $20.00. Oh I almost forgot the potstickers are good too. The dipping sauce is so simple and yet I have NEVER been able to duplicate it @ home. read more

Solid food for a reasonable price. Staff is very friendly. Small location so probably not ideal for large groups and/or during lunch rush. I got the #44- half katsu chicken, half curry chicken. Curry wasn't spicy at all and came with big pieces of potato and carrots. Pretty typical, great flavor. The katsu chicken was crispy and good. Only difference is the dipping sauce it came with, I'm used to more of a Japanese Worcestershire type sauce but this was a sweeter, thicker sauce. Still good, just different. Overall, I'd definitely go back. read more

Didn't expect much from it but wow was I surprised! Very good orange chicken though different from what you'd expect if you've eaten random places. Sushi is so-so but I only tried my friends as it wasn't what I ordered. She was pleased with her curry and tonkatsu. read more
