Yoshinoya

Big disappointment. The beef was ...like nothing I ever ate before. Not sure it was really beef! Orange chicken was good. Pot stickers were tastless. I doubt I would ever go back. I ived in Japan...this food is a poor REPRESENTATION of Japanese food.

Reviews are low, but the food itself is very good. For being a chain restaurant, the gyudon (beef slices) were very tender and nice. I also really enjoyed the gyoza sauce. I like spicy things but the Hanabi hot was not great, it is kind of like gochujang + sriracha. Shichimi or ichimi is better (cayenne or 7 spice powder). The reviews are probably for the service. Was not great. Front counter was not friendly, and had to ask for gyoza sauce and for chopsticks. But food was good,...read full review

Yoshinoya is consistently good. The original gyudon beef is lighter & probably healthier than the standard sauce heavy beef teriyaki bowls. They've added a few different spicy proteins as well as salmon. Lightly seasoned steam veggies are available as a no cost side. The menu includes an interesting mix of items such as clam chowder, coleslaw & flan as a dessert item. The restaurant is always clean, organized and comfortable. The staff is always cheerful and courteous! Yoshinoya...read full review
