Chicken Breast Yakisoba
Shay E.

We love Wild Ginger! My partner recently made a lifestyle change, and Wild Ginger has been the perfect option when we want takeout but he still wants to keep things healthy-ish. He really enjoys the Healthy Stir-Fry and loves that he can upgrade to brown rice. I'm a big fan of the Yakisoba with chicken breast. I order it without carrots and they always accommodate. The only thing I find unnecessary is that it comes with rice--but the food itself is always delicious. The service is consistently warm and friendly, and we grab takeout from here at least once a month.

L5 - Lunch Special with teri chicken and egg roll
Bill G.

Casual eatery. Pricing was on the more reasonable side for this area. The cashier/server was really nice. We ordered B1 - Teriyaki Bento Box with teriyaki beef and the L5 - Lunch special - chicken teriyaki & egg roll. The beef was tender and the chicken was seasoned well. The California roll in the bento box was solid. Of note though: I don't think they used "traditional" tempura batter and the egg roll was on the mildly lacking side. The tempura was still tasty but the outer coating was not as flaky as some of the other more "traditional" places.

Spicy chicken teriyaki

Stopped in for lunch with my Dad yesterday. The place has parking in a lot out front so it's very accessible. The interior was very clean and spacious. Their menu is large with lots of options. We both had teriyaki which was excellent. Portions were a great size and the chicken was perfectly cooked and not dry. I will for sure be back next time I'm in town.

These little design touches make it feel much nicer than any other teriyaki place

This restaurant blows all the other teriyaki restaurants out of the water It actually feels more like a traditional restaurant than a quick serve teriyaki place. Putting all the nice details into the ambience and having it feel simple and classy makes a huge difference The food is really good and they have a nice selection of teriyaki and Chinese and bento boxes and just so many different things The service was outstanding. My husband ordered and once he completed the transaction, I realized that I would like a Sprite so I ordered one and then the woman asked me if I would like egg drop soup with it or miso soup so of course I was confused because why would I get a free soup with a beverage. No business does that. But evidently they do and the soup was delicious She was genuinely friendly. She came over while we were eating and had a huge basket of fortune cookies and asked us if we would like one. I honestly felt confused the majority of the time because this entire model did not fit the traditional teriyaki restaurant model. But the prices were the same as everywhere else and the food was just as good, if not better Every table was completely clean and I mean cleaner than most restaurant tables. The floor was super super clean. The walls with their simplicity and without all the tacky food pictures made it feel low stress in there They are going to be in business for a long long time because they're taking it to the next level Go in and be sure to support them. You'll love the experience and the food and the service

Chicken teriyaki and Katsu combination.
scott m.

As soon as I walked in I felt comfortable, due to the cozy decor and welcoming staff. They had a large selection in their menu, which made my job of deciding more difficult. My order was taken quickly and I was on my way within about 10 minutes. I got one of the teriyaki combos and with Katsu. The Teriyaki was moist and tender, yet had a slightly charred texture outside. The katsu was crisp and tender inside. Overall a delicious experience. It's definitely someplace I wouldn't hesitate visiting again.

Chicken teriyaki and egg roll lunch special, upgrade to chicken breast.
Brett W.

The teriyaki place in Auburn that I have been going every week since March 2020 is under new management and has made some changes, so I'm on a quest to visit all of the teriyaki places in Auburn/Kent/Renton to find my new go to. My usual order is chicken breast with egg roll, which is what I ordered here. Can't say I am a fan of their teriyaki sauce, as I felt it needed to be a little sweeter. The rest was pretty good overall, and a good portion for a lunch special. Everything tasted fresh. The service is top notch and the restaurant is very clean and well-maintained.

It is hard to pick a teriyaki place when there are so many around with 3-4 star ratings so I decided to go with the one that had the most reviews on Google. Wild Ginger met my expectations. General Tso chicken--Meat was tender and had a good sauce Chicken Katsu--Meat was a bit dry but it was crispy Salad--Crunchy, packed separately White rice--Fresh, not too dry or soggy Online website interface is really basic and doesn't provide a time estimate of when it is ready. I would give them 20-25 mins as that was how long my order took on a Saturday night. I will be back to try other things!

Chicken & Katsu Teriyaki Combo
Generous Y.

Came here after Top Golf knowing it was one of Yelp Washington's top restaurants. I will immediately say that the service is above and beyond which makes Wild Ginger memorable. On our way out, we even had the door held open for us which was completely unnecessary but demonstrated exceptional service and friendliness. Beyond that, prices are fair with portions and there's a parking lot. Location is also decent. We snagged four teriyaki plates and a bento box. All items might come with soup, not sure but we all got offered egg flower soup or miso soup which was a warm welcome. We were also offered fortune cookies after our meal which was a nice gesture. Chicken & Katsu Teriyaki Combo - it doesn't look like much but the protein definitely helps fill you up. Good teriyaki sauce and great katsu sauce. Fairly viscous. While I thought the teriyaki was pretty standard, the katsu was very tender and nearly melted in my mouth. Katsu and Assorted Tempura Bento Box - with the bento boxes, you pick two entrees (or "sides," depending on what you consider them as) which come with a 8 piece California roll, bed of rice, and salad. A bit of everything for those indecisive. Pretty filling despite the picture.

Best place to eat from! Awesome teriyaki. If you want to become addicted eat here. Trust fam.

Mongolian Beef
Ryan F.

Visited recently for the first time craving some mongolian beef. My siblings gave Wild Ginger high accolades and that was enough for a visit. There are a ton of items on the menu and will definitely be back to give some more of them a go. We were getting items to go so I can't speak completely to their service, but the person at the counter was friendly and food was out pretty quickly. Mongolian beef was tasty, more of the stewed variety than I was looking for but I'd get it again.

Lots of free parking. Super friendly staff. Very clean inside. Everyone loved their meals. We will be back again soon!

This might be my new favorite dim sum spot in the Seattle area! Everything we got was spot on -…read moreliterally nothing missed. We came around dinner time on a weekday and it wasn't busy at all, but it did take a while for the food to come out. We got the steamed spareribs, truffle shu mai, pork and taro shu mai, fried mochi with pork, sticky rice, and salted egg yolk mochi. I loved absolutely everything so much! Flavors were spot on, textures were amazing, and they were also really unique. I loved the truffle flavor on the shu mai, and the ham sui gok was done so well here too. I'm a huge salted egg yolk fan, and they did the mochi ball here perfectly too. I want to come back soon!!

Went here planning to have dim sum for lunch, but saw they had Peking duck on the menu. I'm a big…read morefan of Peking duck and ordered the whole instead of half. In hindsight, I should have realized that a Cantonese restaurant wouldn't likely get this dish right. The "Peking duck" at Triumph Valley was actually Hong Kong style roast duck. A plate came out with the duck skin. The duck meat was nowhere on this plate. Traditionally, Peking duck meat is served in thin slices and layered under the duck skin. A large bowl was set on the table. There it was, chopped through the bone into chunks with skin, meat, and bone intact. This is a signature style of serving Hong Kong roast duck. Unsurprisingly, the flavor was not pure, natural duck flavor. Instead, it tasted of Hong Kong style with 5 spice seasoning including star anise. It was also a pain to eat because of this poor carving style. Triumph Valley didn't use the traditional thin wraps either, opting for easier steamed bao buns. Thin pancakes are the traditional choice because their light, paper-thin texture doesn't overpower the crispness and rich fat of the duck skin. Triumph Valley used bao buns because they are easier to source (frequently purchased frozen) and are simpler for kitchens to prep than handmade pancakes. Big waste of $50. Avoid the "Peking duck" if choosing to dine at this Hong Kong restaurant because it is falsely advertised there and will leave you disappointed if you have experience with actual Peking duck and appreciate its natural flavors.

It was tender and flavorful. You even got a bit of that wok char on it when they cooked it all together with the bell peppers. It was the most satisfying thing we ate. The chicken wings were flavorful as well but didn't love the coating. It was super crunchy but just a little too heavy on the coating for my preference. The pho was not anything I would go out of my way for. But it did its job. And for $13 for a combo pho, I was not mad at it all. Definitely packed with a lot of noodles if you appreciate that too. The broth was solid. The service was friendly. It's a small restaurant with a good amount of seating. Nothing fancy at all. But you don't hear for vibes. You come here for affordable eats that deliver on flavor. I definitely plan on coming back and trying their chow fun. If the calamari had the wok char, I can only hope their chow fun would too. I'll definitely update when I come back and try!

We asked fresh shrimp tempura!

I chanced upon Marugame Udon at Southcenter Mall in Tukwila. The name sounded familiar because I…read morehad seen this chain in Tokyo, so I decided to give it a try without hesitation. Marugame Udon is a Japanese fast-food restaurant, similar to Yoshinoya, but with more variety and, in my opinion, better-tasting food. We ordered the Nikutama Udon (beef udon) and a creamy broth udon with pork. For sides, we chose shrimp tempura, crab meat tempura, and potato croquette. The beef udon broth tasted like sukiyaki and was a little too sweet for my liking, especially since I have diabetes and need to be mindful of my sugar intake. However, I can see how its sweet and savory flavor would appeal to many people. The creamy broth udon was a better choice for me. Both bowls of udon were perfectly cooked, while the tempura sides were fresh and crispy. I also liked that we could customize our udon with condiments such as tempura bits, chopped green onions, and seaweed. One thing that puzzled me was the service fee. This is a self-service restaurant, where customers are expected to return their own trays after eating. So, if I'm paying a service fee ( I paid 15% anyway), I can't help wondering what exactly that fee is paying for when I'm serving myself and clearing my own tray. It seems reasonable to question the value of a service charge when so much of the work is left to the customer. If I had to choose between a McDonald's Big Mac meal and a bowl of udon from Marugame, the choice would be clear: I'd go with Marugame! Would I make this a regular dining spot? Probably not if I'm sticking with the Nikutama Udon. However, I'd be happy to return and try some of the other udon varieties on the menu. Overall, Marugame Udon offers satisfying Japanese comfort food, with well-cooked noodles and crispy tempura. The food is worth trying, although the overly sweet beef broth and the 15% service fee might give me pause before my next visit.
