“ I used to loveeeee this place bc it was so close to west campus and really fast service to takeout. I've never eaten at the place but it did have a lot of seating to dine in pretty spacious. Overall food prob isn't the tastiest teriyaki out there but when you're hungry it's good. I hope the place is back up and running again bc last thing I remember is the fire in the building closing it down. ”
“ This is University Teriyaki and Bakery on the Ave. I can't speak for the other food, but the egg rolls I got were delicious and huge. I'd come again for the egg rolls and I'd be willing to try the other menu items. FYI they don't sell their baked goods here anymore but they do have them at the H Mart a few blocks down. ”
“ The sign on the door says "Teriyaki & Bakery", if you're looking for this place. They have an strange and wide assortment of Chinese (think orange chicken), Korean (like bibimbap), and Teriyaki (teriyaki chicken & katsu) dishes. They also have beautiful little cakes from their sister bakery (in a different area). However, unlike what you might expect, everything was pretty good. Also, they were reasonably priced with very big portions! Pretty good deal. I'd go again. ”
“ I have no idea why this place doesn't have MUCH higher ratings. I absolutely loved it! In fact, while I am writing this review, I am craving it all over again. This place is a great joint for a college campus! They give you a good amount of food for your money, and it is YUMMY. I got their chicken and gyoza and it was great! It was plated beautifully, the teriyaki sauce was on point, they give you plenty of food. I would definitely recommend coming here on your next stop to the UW campus. ”
“ lmao, is this their 3rd name change? Aw well, it's a great location on the Ave so I understanding wanting to keep it/ change it up after their many health incidents... feel free to google it if you're not familiar. But you can tell they're trying to improve, so that should mean something. So my review is for the ONLY thing I come in here for and that is their spicy seafood noodle soup (please see pretty picture that still makes me drool). THE GOOD: - Large portioned dishes and bowls - My friends who order the teriyaki are never disappointed either. I see quite a few construction workers going here too, so that's a testament to their sizing lol. - The location... when you're coming from campus and just don't wanna walk anywhere up the ave, then this place becomes really appealing. Plus there's always that nice blues/rnb singer who stands at the corner (give him tips and applaud when you can!) - I really enjoy their seafood noodle soup lol... Good flavor and is fulllll of squid, oyster, shrimp, mushrooms and veggies... really hits the spot on a rainy, cold day. THE MEH: - I found a piece of plastic in my noodle bowl once lol (-1 star*)... it's not that bad compared to what other friends have found in theirs..............lol I told the manager about it and he gave me 2 free meal tokens!!!! LOLOL I used them to get more spicy noodle soup ^___^ - It's self serve, and I've found some of their cups and utensils are on the unclean side - make sure you grab disposable ones or reclean your utensils before eating! ”
