The food is great and the employees are super nice. Good value for what you get. Nice large portions.

Tucked away in a small strip mall, this cozy teriyaki spot feels like stepping into a warm family kitchen. The restaurant is run by a kind Korean family and they provided very friendly service. The C25 combo (Honey Garlic Chicken and Chicken Teriyaki) was absolutely delicious, with portions that were impressively generous. Between the two, the Honey Garlic Chicken stood out as my favorite, thanks to its perfectly balanced sweet and tangy flavor. The Chicken Teriyaki was also flavorful, with a thick and tasty teriyaki sauce. However, I found the sauce a bit heavy for my preference, so I'll be sure to request it on the side next time.

Probably my favorite teriyaki spot in Seattle! The chicken is super tender and flavorful. I usually get it in combo with the beef or the katsu. The katsu is super crispy and really delicious as well. The portions are always big and there's always leftovers which I love. Service is great as well! It also comes with a salad!

Got the chicken teriyaki lunch special which was ~$1-2 cheaper than regular price. Chicken was had a nice prominent char flavor but the sauce may have been overdone as it was a tad salty for my comfort level. Some pieces of the chicken were nice and tender while other pieces leaned a little drier but non of them were super dry or chewy by any means. The plate comes with two scoops of white rice which, sometimes, restaurants overlook the rice and give either hard or wet rice, but this place got their rice down! Nice and fragrant and perfectly cooked to soak up the sauce from the teriyaki as well. The plate also came with a side salad of iceberg lettuce and some homemade dressing - super refreshing! Service was so friendly! It seemed like a family owned business. The workers kept checking in on us to make sure the food is good, asked us if we wanted water while we were eating, and overall excellent service - especially since this is more of an order and takeout or order-eat-go kind of place. The restaurant itself has a very asian homey vibe-id imagine it may feel a little crowded when it's busy, but we went around 2pm on a weekday and it wasn't particularly super busy.

My shrimp fried rice was so good. Service was fast and the staff were very friendly. They checked on us and asked how'd we enjoy the food. The restaurant is clean. Good amount of seating available for dining in.

The food and customer service were excellent! I'm not sure if I've ever had a more kind person take my food order Loved the tofu teriyaki and veggie chow mein and I'm so happy they have vegetarian options! The crab Rangoon was also pretty good (not vegetarian lol). I also loved the sauces on the table. The sesame sauce and teriyaki sauce were soo good! There were lots of people getting takeout but the dining room wasn't too crowded.

Excellently grilled chicken with creamy teriyaki sauace. Tried this place after a pickleball session and it hit the spot. Good value for the price. Service was fast and casual, with the family running the place checking in on you every so often with a smile! Would definitely come again if in the area.

This place was delicious! Such a great find, I just wish we lived closer! The service was great, kind enjoyed and quick turnaround time. The restaurant was also very clean. I got the teriyaki chicken breast and it was honestly one of the most moist and tender chicken dishes I've ever had. The rice was cooked perfectly, the sauce was flavorful and not too sweet and the salad was crisp with a dressing I could've eaten plain. We'll definitely be back when we're in the area!

I may have accidentally forgotten to write any reviews for 2024 so far, but alas I thought what better place to start it off with none other than Seattle's most iconic dish, the chicken teriyaki! I've been meaning to try Rainier Teriyaki for YEARS now ever since finding out it was owned by Sam Kim's family, and after hearing about the tragedy with his late father (the previous owner of Rainier Teriyaki), I really wanted to support this family-owned business. Coming in, we were greeted by the new owner who I assumed was the brother of the previous late owner. He was very friendly and inviting, and helped me and my partner at the register. We both ordered the classic chicken teriyaki for dine-in. The price was very good, ranging around $13-14 per order. Once we sat down and waited for our order, we got the nicely plated chicken teriyaki and the owner brought some extra sauces we could use. I haven't had teriyaki in a long while, so after the first bite my mouth was filled with so much flavour and excitement! Honestly I barely ever eat teriyaki, but after this meal I think I'd have to come back more often. I even surprised myself by clearing that plate completely in such a short amount of time. Guess that is how you know I really enjoyed it! Rainier Teriyaki is definitely worth the hype that all these online food reviewers are giving them, and I would encourage you all to support this business by giving them a try. The service alone makes me want to come back, so I'll be there again soon!

I have had this place on my list for a while, especially after Kenji Lopez reviewed it and gave it a solid recommendation. This is the best teriyaki I've had in a long time. The chicken was tender, juicy, and had some char. The rice was soft and not mushy. The salad was crunchy with a good dressing. The people were so nice too! I got thanked once by the lady at the front and the guy outside the door loading inventory. No online ordering so walk in or phone. Small parking lot available. I would be a repeat customer if I'm in the area. It is a steal for $12.99 for a chicken teriyaki so I'm fine even if prices went up because of the quality. Go support them! This business has had a hard time since the shooting last year of the owner.
