“JUST got done eating there, 1st which I didn't want to cause a fuss, my steak was well done NOT medium rare like I ordered and I asked to split the shrimp and steak like have the half order of steak and half order of shrimp and our server said, "Sure no problem" well got the check and was charged an extra 4 bucks and when asked about it our server said, " I asked my manager and they said we couldn't do that" well that would have been nice to know, horrible service!“

“This was absolutely amazing! I have now tried their Sumo Ramen which is delicious! I actually enjoyed that it was more of a clear soup broth than a miso broth. There were more greens in it than I would have preferred but you definitely get your $14 worth of ramen.I also tried their California roll which was very delicious and their Spicy Scallop roll was great too!We walked in during dinner and were served with a soup AND a salad! Which was amazing because normally you have to pay for that!“

Teriyaki Chicken and Shrimp
Teriyaki Beef

“It had been a couple years since I last had Teriyaki Boys (back then, they were where Fernando's is now in the Local Bites food court), and it was kind of sad to see what used to be a super busy food court with lots of options only have a few open options (that and the dimly lit room made it seem kind of forlorn), but I'm glad to say that Teriyaki Boys had the same great taste and the same competitive pricing.The amount of food you get for the price in addition to the taste itself is fantastic. We've been trying to find a good teriyaki place that's somewhat comparable to Washington state, and it's safe to say that this definitely helps the teriyaki cravings!Got the shrimp, beef, and chicken (didn't take a picture of that, but did take a picture of the beef and chicken) with steamed rice. The rice was really good, veggies gave a nice crunch, and the meat was juicy, tender, and just fantastic.“

“I showed up for lunch today with 5 of my coworkers, we were only on lunch, so time constraints. The food was excellent as always! Best sushi in the metro in my opinion! We had a wonderful time! Our server, Cassandra, was fantastic! Got our bills out to us quickly while we waited on food so we could go when we needed to! And when we realized we were running short on time and asked for boxes, our food was brought our, packed, ready to go!“

“I went there twice when I was in town. The first time I had miso soup and vegetarian sushi for lunch and that was 5/5. I went again after 2 days for dinner and the vegetarian sushi wasn't as good as the first time, still not bad at all!“
