I ordered chicken teriyaki bowl . It was flavorful and tasty .Side Salad was spicy and tasted good. Receptionist was very welcoming and helpful. Food quality was also good . If you like teriyaki flavor with reasonable price in Pasadena, you can try this .

A pretty good fast food restaurant. I got the double chicken plate with rice, noodles and Asian slaw. The portions were decent and tasted good. It came with two sides of extra teriyaki sauce which was very unnecessary in my opinion, didn’t add any more since the chicken already had a lot. They have some seating but mainly for takeout.

Had lunch there. I had a chicken teriyaki bowl and it was delicious. I was greeted as soon as I walked in. The atmosphere was nice and chill despite being on a busy street. I will definitely stop here again for lunch.

I’ve been enjoying this place for years (beef n chicken plate) but sadly I may never return if they don't add the potatoes back to their menu. It completes the meal and was the best part of the plate! How did we run out of potatoes? get it together please! Delicious Potatoes smothered in that tery n yaki sauce is what your customers want. So put some mash in your step and get us those potatoes!

Love this fast casual spot. One of my lunch time favorites is the Chinese Chicken Salad. Perfect amount of salad for a reasonable price and they are always so nice at the counter! Would highly recommend for a lunch spot. Would recommend the Gyoza or glass noodles as a side as well.

Their Chinese chicken salad is the best I've ever tasted. They give you alot too. The dressing and the fried wontons on top are addicting. One time they put them in a brown paper bag on the side for me. They were so warm and delicious. Tasted something like those fried noodles they give you at Chinese food restaurants. I could eat this almost everyday (that is as long as I'm not craving fatty food ). The seasoned spinach is bomb also!
