    Chicken & Beef Combo, Spicy Chicken, Gyoza
    Nicole D.

    Wow is all I can say! In this economy it's hard to find a place that is not shrinking their portion size. Amazing taste & quality. My family will definitely be coming back as our preferred teriyaki spot!

    Tofu Yakisoba--don't bother
    Maryam G.

    This review is for a delivery order, so I cannot speak to the ambiance or even service per se (though everything was prepared quickly and packed professionally). I'm focusing on the food: really hit and miss. The yakisoba was some of the worst we have ever had anywhere. The noodles were mushy, and none of the ingredients were stir-fried at all. We ordered one with tofu that was not remotely charred, just soggy. And one with chicken which was a touch better, but the noodles and veggies were still limp and mushy. We got different teriyaki versions. The /mild/ chicken breast was much hotter than the /medium/ chicken thigh. The chicken thigh (regular teriyaki) had more of a teriyaki flavor, too. The heat level seems to come from gochujang, which has a distinct, strong flavor. Just something to note. All of the teriyaki had a nice char on it. The salad was decently fresh, but the dressing was like sugar glaze in both texture and flavor. If we ever go back, we will get regular chicken or chicken breast teriyaki with no spice. The portions are absolutely massive, and perhaps this partially explains such a high average rating. I'm sorry to say our experience didn't match it.

    I've been looking for good teriyaki in the lynnwood area and this one is awesome. Tried here for the first time and the portion size of the Chicken Teriyaki was so good. It was the perfect amount of food and had a nice little salad on the side. The woman at the counter was very friendly and was super quick and packed my food with all the proper utensils and napkins. It's pretty good price I'd say considering the amount you get.

    Spicy Chicken Teriyaki
    Rome M.

    I've seen the reviews and I wanted to see for myself. We were met by a friendly greeting and I could see that she's (Didn't catch her name)busy, so we went ahead and used the kiosk to place our order. This was around 12:30pm or so and inside wasn't too packed or busy at all (must've missed lunch rush luckily). Inside the restaurant was roomy and full of tables. Very cleanly setting. We ordered the Regular chicken teriyaki & Spicy Teriyaki (very hot option) to go since i wanted to eat at home and watch a show. We opened our orders and WOW is definitely a fitting name for this place. The portions did not disappoint at all! The flavor and char of the chicken was perfection. I only ate a quarter of it with the salad and had to set it away for later. Food coma incoming. This place will definitely be my #1 to go to and well worth the drive. I hope the pictures do it justice.

    Chicken stir fry veggies

    Mostly a carry out place although there is dine in seating. 3 stars for taste and friendly mess of the owner. Extra star for huge portions. You basically get what you pay for as this place maybe a few dollars more but you get some much food. Taste was good..similar to other teriyaki places. Definite give it a try if your hunger.

    Chicken and Chicken Katsu Combo

    Friggin phenomenal. Huge portions. The still dream of the grilled teriyaki chicken with little charred bits MM. Delish. If I lived near Lynnwood I would eat here everyday.

    Krispy pollo~rrito

    HUGE portions, clean tables, excellent customer service. We ordered the chicken & gyoza, omu rice, and krispy pollo-rito. Our family of four ate well, enjoyed it all, and have leftovers that would easily feed us again for dinner. Steady traffic of regulars and to go orders. If we lived closer we'd return regularly too.

    Chicken and Chicken Katsu Combo  Omu Rice
    Ngoc R.

    WOW is right! Fat ass portions and bomb food. We had the omu rice which the egg was a bit overcooked ngl. But surprisingly it was filled with fried rice AND teriyaki chicken. This thing was the size of a plate you would bring to a potluck.

    My family and I been coming to esther for about 20 years everything on the menu is fresh, flavorful, and made with care, but what really sets this place apart is Esther herself. She remembers her regulars, asks about your day, and makes you feel like you're part of the family. It's rare to find food this good, portion sizes this big , and a vibe this warm. Whether you're a local or just passing through, do yourself a favor and stop by Wow Teriyaki to try the best teriyaki you've ever had!!!!!

Side note, the dressing or sauce that was in the table was let me say to die for. We put it on everything. If I had it on hand all the time it would probably be a condiment that I used on a very regular basis. The service was top notch and our server was very sweet and patient. We took awhile to look over the whole menu and there are so many things that I would come back for just to try. The only let down was the edamame as it is a staple that we usually order at any restaurant when available. They were very hot and cold and felt like it was a frozen edamame that was nuked in the microwave. The establishment itself was very modern looking with a very clean vibe. We will definitely be back. This is definitely a spot in lynnwood that needs more love from people. Then again, it could be packed all the time, but we were there very early on Mother's Day.

We were craving some something warm and since this one was the closest in the area and one of the only places that has ramen, we decided to give it a try. We ordered the Red Volcano Tonkotsu And Tonkotsu Ramen. The ramen noodle itself was good and chewy. Egg was perfectly cooked with yolk on the inside and well marinated on the outside. We thought the broth was okay, it needed more flavor and it didn't really taste like authentic Japanese ramen to us. The red volcano was very very spicy, I do not recommend if you cannot handle spice, I really thought it was just a kick of spice before ordering but it was actually very spicy that it was almost impossible to enjoy the broth. The regular tonkotsu was lighter in flavor. Both ramen dishes had this pickled vegetable and bok choy in there which is not like traditional Japanese ramen but we didn't mind the extra crunch. I wouldn't get the ramen again but I'm open to trying their sushi if I ever go again.

The wooden partitions and traditional Japanese design elements create a cozy space that is both elegant and relaxed. It is the kind of place where you can take your time and actually enjoy the experience, not just the food. What really stood out to me was the freshness and presentation. You can literally see the quality at the sushi bar, with beautifully cut fish displayed right in front of you. It immediately builds trust and anticipation. I ordered a mix of items, and everything felt thoughtfully prepared. The crispy rolls we had were perfectly balanced, with a light crunch on the outside and very fresh, flavorful fish on top. The textures were just right, not greasy, not heavy, just clean and satisfying. The crab tempura roll was also excellent, with a nice crispiness and generous portions. One of my favorite parts was how vibrant everything looked. The colors, the plating, the little details like the garnish and sauce all showed care and attention. It did not feel like standard sushi you can get anywhere, it felt curated. The menu itself is also really interesting. There are classic options, but also more elevated dishes like uni, toro selections, and specialty items that make the experience feel a bit more premium without being intimidating. You can go simple or explore more refined flavors depending on your mood. Service was smooth and pleasant. Nothing felt rushed, and everything came at a good pace. It made the whole experience feel relaxed and enjoyable. Overall, this is definitely a spot I would come back to. It hits that perfect balance between quality, atmosphere, and price. Whether you are going for a casual sushi night or something a bit more special, Kazoku delivers. Highly recommend. I felt like I was in Japan. I miss Japan .

I ordered a replacement and the next piece of nigiri that came out had something in the flesh that should have never been sent out, so I sent that back too and asked for my check immediately. The service is low-effort even for a revolving sushi place. Also the waiting area being outside only just feels disrespectful and detracts from the atmosphere/experience.

Yet, it's disappointing to say that we've been sourly disappointed the last 2-3 times we came here. Not sure if it's management change or something happened, but Nakagawa lost its magic with us. 1. The service has been terribly slow and just not inviting anymore. After ordering, we waited easily 35-40 min for the food. I know it takes time to meticulously prep rolls, but after 30 min of just sitting and waiting, you can't help but start feeling hangry. And this isn't just a one-time occurrence - this happened multiple times for us. 2. The bento box quality. I LOVE bento boxes - it was such a treat to dine on so many different Japanese options, like a sampler box of goodness. Ranging from nigiri to sushi, from tempura to the soup, bento boxes have a special place in my heart. Yet, I feel like Nakagawa's bento boxes have sadly missed that mark. The protein (chicken teriyaki/katsu) tastes old and oddly mushy, and the portions are quite small, just leaving me wanting more. Don't get me wrong - the fish is still good. Solid place for seafood, paired with a lengthy wait. But Nakagawa just lost its touch with us, and driving that 30-35 min trek is not worth it for us anymore.
