New staff is friendly and the service has been satisfactory. Have become a weekly repeat customer just for the new sushi choices alone. Very well made and priced rolls. read more

They recently went under new ownership and the food quality has went down tremendously. I will not be back.

Their curry chicken was horrible. I couldn't taste curry at all...it was more like a soupy, white glaze. Absolutely horrible! Missing former owner, this place has lost its inviting atmosphere and eliminated waiters?!?! So disappointed - not going back. read more

Young's Teriyaki - Curry Chicken ... sans curry?!?! - Japanese Near Me - Yelm, Washington

Not sure what happened to what were for me, the best egg rolls on the planet but the ones I got tonight are not the same as they were just 6 months ago. The dipping sauce is super runny, not thick like it was. The price for two egg rolls when I came to Yelm was $2.99 then $3.99 and I even think $4.99, but tonight for 2 egg rolls it was $5.45 before tax. Happy to pay bc they WERE delicious but tonight TOTAL DISAPPOINTMENT. Runny dipping sauce and no flavor. What happened Young's???? I would not recommend these egg rolls anymore. read more

Best teriyaki in town! We moved to VA for 5 years and missed it so very much! Glad to be back. Food is delicious as always. Owners are great and friendly! They know almost everyone in town! Ambience is great. My go to is either tofu teriyaki or the chicken teriyaki and tonkatsu combo Absolutely love their miso soup and crab rolls as well. read more

Pretty good food tbh especially for yelm. Sides and drinks are a little pricey Never had a bad experience yet with the place just your average teriyaki place. read more

FOOD; The food is amazing, always freshly made any time I come. I've had the teriyaki, orange chicken, and California roll. Most unique sauces I have had and can't find anywhere else with immaculate flavor! Good big portions too and fairly priced for small family business and portions. SERVICE; I see the same woman each time I come, and she always has a smile and warm welcome, even over the phone. Very kind workers. AMBIANCE/ATMOSPHERE; Quiet and calm environment and lighting with very unique decor and comfortable seating. The dine in feels intimate yet small and is perfect for introverts. read more

Young's Teriyaki - Chicken Teriyaki with extra sauce medium heat - Japanese Near Me - Yelm, Washington

Great food which tasted good. Service was outstanding and fast. They were accurate with my order too.

They completely changed the food and the ordering process. The food is lacking any sort of sauce. The miso is salter than a bowl of salt ( and I've eaten a bowl of salt). But my biggest concern is how they are making the sweet and sour chicken, it used to be just breaded chicken and the sauce, it was very simple and delicious. Now it's very little sauce, carrots, onion, bell pepper, and chicken aka filler and it's what you can get at every other happy teriyaki place. The atmosphere is the same but seems a little dimmer since the change. Long story short if you've been here in the past month or have been going here for the last 26 years like I have you will be disappointed. read more

Great food and prices. My favorite is the chicken teriyaki. No online ordering that I could find, but you can call ahead.

We go here often, to eat in restaurant. The food is decent (for Yelm) but so so compared to most. After tonight I will not be back or my family!. I ordered chicken teriyaki with sweet and sour cream chicken for myself, for 24 some odd dollars.(TO GO) I tried to squirt a bit of sriracha over my rice and was screamed at from the witch behind the counter. I said, if I eat here, I can take the whole bottle to my table, but if I take it to go , I can't put a little on my rice? She yelled at me, We SELL WE SELL! Portions are a lot smaller for to go as well. So, for the evil witch behind the counter, I will be going to Ichiban from now on. I hope the 5 cents you saved on that sriracha was worth the hundreds of dollars my family used to spend here every year! read more

Teriyaki beef and chicken are both good and the best price in Yelm. I wish they were open later. read more

Terrible, this was our first time trying this place and we will not be back. We were told 25 minutes for our food but it took an hour, our food was cold and soggy on one order. When we were waiting people were walking in and eating and getting food right away. For what we got the price was ridiculous. I heard it's never that busy and stuff like that but that doesn't excuse the lady bringing our order out and setting it on the counter to then talk to someone for a good 10 minutes and then finally call our number! Outrageous read more

Everything was great except the sauce for the egg rolls. It was disgusting. I've never had anything like it. Red, overly sweet... just wrong. read more

My favorite teriyaki in town! Super good. The service is always good and they are friendly. Even when very packed they make sure everything is going well. The environment is more low light which I enjoy. read more

I got the sweet and sour chicken.. to me the chicken was over cooked, didn't taste like chicken...will not be back.

I absolutely love this place! We eat here every time we visit Washington from Texas. Everything we have had is amazing!! read more

Uhm, it's ok. Not real authentic. The pros: quick service, friendly high school waitress, the soup was awesome and it is clean. The cons: plain food, small portions, and kind of cold inside. And, no beer. Damn, hard to enjoy teriyaki without a Japanese beer. Quite a few folks were getting takeout so it must have a good reputation. Just not for me. I hope your experience is better. The egg rolls were kind of bland. The chicken a bit tough. read more

We usually order from here to go so can't comment too much on the dinning service. However when we order to go the food is always done quickly and tastes great! read more

Best teriyaki in town. Service is great. The shop is clean and food comes quickly. Portions are really good for the price.

Yaki Yudon is soooo good never had it before this place now it's all we order so very good!

Always great food and incredibly fast service. They are always super nice! I love this place

Food is pretty good, certainly not the best I've had! Charging $2.75 for a tea bag is a rip off big time and unjustifiable, especially when it's complimentary at most Asian restaurants! read more

My o my , intended to try another place but there hours went posted incorrectly on maps so looked for another similar place and found Young's .... Good find . Place was busy and service was the absolute best ever, food was piping hot and timely. The owner must have filled our drinks at least twice, the food was so fresh vegetables were done perfectly. We were so full and happy , we were treated with the best service , if you are looking for a Japanese style of food this is the place , we drove from Rochester (30 miles) and would defiantly come back and recommend this place for the food and service !!! read more

This is the closest Teriyaki to our place now and finally decided to try it out this past weekend. OK if you want SPICY CHICKEN with VEGGIES, you need to try this place, they will give you SPICY and you will LOVE IT! I however had the udon noodles with pork and veggies, because the spice is for my husband and we will be back again! Tucked away by the Sunbird Store you won't regret it! read more

Really good. The portions are perfect because I can never finish my food and this is just perfect. The best service !

My family loves going here! We always get the family meal and two extra orders of egg rolls. This feeds six people and you still have some leftovers! Great place! read more

Good and pricing is great, the customer service here is also great. They would come up and ask if we needed anything. 10/10

Disgusting! Yakisoba is not an egg noodle recipe and I witnessed the cook grab a handful of noodles and throw them in that dirty wok with no gloves and cut the chicken with scissors as she was eating some also! Sweaty itchy watching her phone and cooking very unsanitary!! Omg never coming back!! read more

Young's Teriyaki - "Chicken Yakisoba" is not an egg noodle recipe! This is EXACTLY why I don't try new teriyaki places - Japanese Near Me - Yelm, Washington

I have never been dissatisfied by this place! Some of the best food in Yelm! The prices are pretty fair and when it comes to the California Rolls you really get some bang for your buck! 10/10 will definitely recommend to all my of friends read more

I would give them zero stars if I could. Customer service was at best wretched. Food was disgusting. Beef was rubbery and tasted like it was leftover from last weekend. Chicken was dry or flat rock hard. Fried rice included 2 single peas and one scrambled egg. Save your money and order somewhere else. Eating here made our whole family lose their appetite. read more

My family and I come here all the time. My kids love eating here. The staff is very friendly and the service is quick. No matter how busy they are, they always greet everyone who walks in the door. My daughter loves the soup and loves to help clean the tables. The portion is a good amount as well. I feel other places give you a little amount. Youngs gives a pretty large portion. Thank you for always being so nice to my kids and family when we come in. read more

Not overly enthused. Nothing special to rave about. Was okay. Probably won't order from here again.

Pretty disappointing teriyaki. I don't really eat chicken, so I usually opt for beef teriyaki. Why is the beef $3 more than the chicken? $10.95 for beef teriyaki is pretty expensive, especially for the quality I received. They were super stingy with the rice (two pitiful scoops that I amounted to a few bites), and really thin and fatty beef. The teriyaki sauce itself also left a lot to be desired. Thin and runny consistency that lacked flavor and they only give you a very small portion of it. Considering I worked in a teriyaki restaurant before, and teriyaki sauce is literally soy sauce and sugar, it's hard to get that wrong. I'd recommend skipping this place and trying the other teriyaki place in town or making the drive somewhere else. It's just not worth the money. read more

Good teriyaki. I would definitely give it a shot if you've got the craving and you find yourself in the area. Won't let you down but probably won't wow you. read more

A hidden gem in Yelm. The food is fast, decently priced and delicious. The quality of your meal is something you can always depend on. I'm never disappointed when I order from here! read more
