Came here after weigh ins for The Fit Expo. I got the Yamas fries and a side of rice. The portion was huge and they give you a very generous amount of meat. The fries stay crispy for awhile and were so delicious. I've had my fair share of loaded fries with soggy fries, but definitely not at Yamas. The service was great too. Would definitely come back.

Unfortunately, we ordered a beef bowl and a chicken plate but we got a spicy pork bowl and a plate with half chicken and half beef! On a positive note, we still enjoyed all the food! I just wish I had veggies for more balance. They're super generous with their portions, so you do feel like you're getting your moneys worth. I love that they give extra containers of teriyaki sauce and hot sauce too! Everything is flavored super well and I love the char on the chicken! It's so good! Service is relatively fast and they're friendly! The parking is very limited but not too bad. We went on a Saturday evening and there were a few tables inside. It's not a good place for big groups, so I recommend just getting takeout and going home to enjoy! It was still nice and warm too by the time we got to eating! I'd come back again FOR SURE!

Came here on a whim while getting my car serviced and wow, so glad I did. We ordered the chicken salad, chicken and beef plate, and Yamas fries with beef teriyaki. That was seriously some of the best teriyaki I've had in a while and the fries were insanely good. They didn't skimp on the meat or cheese on the fries. Please open up a Yamas in the SGV!!!

Great food, great service, located in a small parking lot. No need to go anywhere else if you're looking for some delicious food.

For it being in a small corner the portions are definitely small and the price for what you pay is awesome! The chicken and beef plate was perfect. It was so much food that I can safely half for now and half for later. Taste wise, it's freshly cooked and hot. This place is one of those places that will have me coming back for sure! The cashiers service was very kind, delightful and she answered all my questions I had. Before you go just know parking may be a little small since everyone goes there for Starbucks on that lot.

Highly recommend! The teriyaki chicken is so delicious I will definitely get a bowl next time but I could not resist the fries I've been seeing on social media. The hype is well deserved. The spicy pork yamas fries was 20 bucks and took about 10 minutes for them to make. Plenty of seating and parking. Overall I would pick the spicy pork yamas fries and order a teriyaki chicken bowl next time! Kind worker and very relaxing vibe with low level music playing. There is a reason why I saw so many people coming and going. They got some loyal customers for good reason- come check them out!

This place is a solid option if you're craving teriyaki :) I work in Westminster now and this place is being raved by police officers and government personnel so it must be that good. The place is an ordinary teriyaki joint and has a very clean ambiance. I assumed it's a mom and pops store based on the friendliness that they have. Nothing too fancy and simple :) I ordered their half chicken and beef plate which has beef and chicken with rice and salad. The meat was so tender and flavorful. The meat is sorta dry but the teriyaki sauce really helps the texture. Overall, not bad I'll go here again whenever I crave for some teriyaki :)

Chicken veggie plate

Legit one of the best chicken teriyaki plates I've ever had. The chicken was moist and just slightly charred on the outside, the portion size is generous, and the veggies are freshly steamed. I'm so glad I ate it at the restaurant as well, it would not be the same if it sat around on my way home. People who live here already know this place but if you're in the area and need some teriyaki, you have to stop by.

Good place. The prices on Yelp are very outdated. I took the liberty of taking pictures and adding so everyone is aware of the pricing. Good is good! I will be going back.

*** $10 minimum to use credit cards or debit cards *** Yamas Teriyaki is known for its homemade teriyaki sauce and has been serving the local community for over a decade. The flagship location is in Huntington Beach with a second location in Westminster. [Parking]: Plenty of parking spots available - I always find a spot whenever I come here at 7 PM. [Menu]: Pretty straightforward menu featuring bowls and plates with chicken or beef. They also offer California rolls and crunch rolls. Lunch specials are served from 11 AM to 3 PM. *** Chicken bowl (small $9.59): The chicken was grilled nicely, but the bowl had slightly more rice than I would like and the bowl was not the best bang for the buck. (3/5) Chicken veggie (small $10.99): The plate was slightly larger portion than bowl and the plate also included fresh vegetables. This plate was a much better option than the chicken bowl. It was worth an addition $1.50 price difference. *** A solid 3.5-star on food & I would recommend chicken veggie plate over chicken bowl for the best experience. As long as you avoid ordering the small teriyaki bowl, most of the other main menu items exceed the $10 credit/debit card minimum.

Okay don't hate me, but the Chicken Yamas Fries were alright! Much of the flavor is from the protein-teriyaki chicken. I didn't really get any flavor from the sauce they used. I will say the portion is good for 2 people.

Chicken and Beef Plate
Justin N.

This place is an institution- I've been coming here since my brother used to get us their food after a long day at school. The quality of food is still great as it was back then, and the smoky flavor of the chicken and beef gets you salivating for more! The ambiance hasn't changed in a while, but they have kept their warm, traditional look for over a decade! Don't need to fix what ain't broke! Food always comes out quick, I generally call in beforehand and they have everything ready in 5-10 for pickup :)

No onions but my daughter has to give me onions from her food because I was upset

I asked extra onions and both plates nothing. I have gone here several times and never disappointed and today no onions. Please maybe show the order to the customer to make sure no errors. My daughter added a bit of her onions they added on her at least.

It was my first day of work as I am new to the area and was indecisive as to what to eat for lunch…read more I had not been to a Rubio's in over 7 years when I last worked in Santa Ana and was within walking distance of one so I decided to give it a try. One cashier was on duty as they have two kiosks to place your order on. I was trying to add beans and rice via the kiosk as they had an add on via their menu board; however, you can only order that via the cashier. I ordered the trio fish tacos with the beans and rice. They were tasty but pretty pricey for street tacos at 13.99 not including the beans and the rice. Dining area was very clean and a decent size.

Service is usually okay here but today was bad enough for me to write this review. First, I tried…read moreto order at the register and the lady who is usually working there (I assume she is the manager or shift leader) took a long time to figure out the ordering system since "they got a new system" installed, which is understandable. However, right before she was suppose to give me my fountain drink and number for some reason she decides to help someone else who was also complaining about something with online ordering. I mean, isn't it common sense to finish my transaction first before you move on to the next person? I finally get my cup and number after having to ask some other worker for help. Then when the food arrives the same lady forgets the beans that come with the combo I ordered. The food is good here however. Would definitely recommend the shrimp and bacon burrito and fish tacos. Would Just recommend some customer service training.

Took the parents here and we ordered family style: Seafood Pad Thai ($20), Pad See Ew w/ Chicken…read more($16), and Crab Fried Rice ($20). I liked the seafood pad thai with its sweet, sour, and tangy tamarind sauce while the and pad see ew had a savory dark soy sauce. The crab fried rice was close to a hit, except there were some small bits of shells in them. The rest of the dish had good amounts of crab meat and scrambled eggs. Overall, we left full. I'll have to come back for their lunch happy hour during the weekdays.

Overall, the food is basic Thai--not terrible, but certainly not great--while the service and value…read moreare completely lacking. Ambiance (4/5): *Spacious, clean, and we were seated immediately. Food (3/5): * Pad Kee Mao Lunch Special: Hot, decently spiced, and flavorful. The complimentary soup and salad were on the sweeter side, but fine. * Spicy Basil Beef Lunch Special: Just okay. The beef was tough--essentially Panda Express +1. * Fish Cakes: Tasted decent, but $15 for six tiny pieces (smaller than McDonald's nuggets) is a total rip-off. They were also stingy with the dipping sauce. Service & Value (2/5) * The servers were entirely inattentive. We had to flag someone down for basic needs like water, utensils, and boxes. To save time, we ordered a Shrimp Fried Rice ($15.95 + $2 shrimp charge) to-go during our meal. The server forgot to put the order in until after we paid, forcing us to wait an extra 20 minutes on a time crunch. The nickel-and-diming here is ridiculous: * Tofu Tax: I asked to add tofu to my veggie noodles. While adding chicken, beef, or shrimp costs $1-2 according to the menu, they slammed me with a $4 charge for a few tiny slivers of tofu. Why does tofu cost 4x more than beef? The server never mentioned this outrageous fee. Tiny Portions, Sky-High Prices: * Between small portions, a $15 bite-sized app, and sneaky upcharges, two lunch specials and a to-go order somehow hit $95 after tax and tip. This place is a tourist trap. Food is mediocre, service stinks, and the value just isn't there. I should have gone to Panda Express across the street. Won't be back.

Being six weeks in the area for work, I am discovering plenty of restaurants (familiar & new) for…read morelunch and decided to try this place as I have not been in years (to a different location). Being that it was "Fat Friday" in our office and I brought donuts in for a late breakfast, I didn't want something heavy for lunch & I also wanted a deal and recalled seeing some 10.00 specials advertised on social media. I signed up for their rewards program as I placed my order online and ended up selecting their grilled chicken wrap with a side salad and a drink for 10 bucks (not a bad deal)! The wrap was fresh and tasty, and the salad was also fresh and a good size for a side salad. My order was packaged nice and neat. The store was very busy upon pick up, but very clean and was able to get in and out of there quickly (very congested area). The cashier who gave me my order was friendly and efficient and I grabbed my own fountain drink and on my way. Will definitely be back and looking forward to trying one of their burgers since it has been years that I've had one.

I walked in the restaurant to buy lunch, and an employee was standing behind the counter texting. I…read morestood there for five minutes while she was texting, and I finally asked her, "could you please help me when you're done texting?". Very bad service. Also, when I got to my table, my table was dirty, so I had to clean it off myself. This is not the experience I want when I come here to eat. Somebody needs to see that these employees are not texting on their phones, make sure the employees are keeping the tables clean, and making sure customer service is always top priority. I'm disappointed with my visit today. If you need to know my order number, my order number is order #145 October 10th at 11:43 AM.
