I've been coming here for a while, but the new management has completely changed the food, and not for the better. First off I would like to say, they have definitely improved the ambiance and how nice it looks for sure, but the chicken was incredibly mushy. When I brought this up, the manager's excuse was that they make it mushy on purpose so that when customers take it home and microwave it, it gets "hard." I'm paying for a fresh meal to eat now, not a meal-prep project. Beyond the texture, the flavor has a heavy Chinese culinary influence that doesn't work for traditional teriyaki, and the sauce is now overly citrusy. To top it off, my side salad was almost entirely hard lettuce ribs. When I gave this honest feedback, the manager was incredibly dismissive and rude, telling me "everyone has their own opinion." Disappointing to see a great spot go downhill with terrible quality and laughable excuses. read more

This teriyaki place under new ownership is very good. Large portions and food is tasty. Will definitely come back. read more

First, the bad: I called in an order at 6:10pm and was told it would be ready in 10 minutes or so. I had other errands to run so I showed up at 6:40pm, much to my surprise, they hadn't even started cooking my food and therefore I sat there for another 10 minutes.... Additionally, they almost charged me for something I didn't order, before I asked for clarification. The good: Very large servings overall (especially rice), and pretty good food. Summary: Food was solid and large portioned, just double check your bill, and if you're really hungry you're probably better off ordering somewhere else (or going immediately to confirm they started your order). read more

Great prices! And they give a lot! The cashier is very nice. I didn't see they have lunch specials that come with a drink, but I had already paid for my orders. The cashier was nice to give me free drinks with my orders. She didn't have to do that. Their kung pao chicken is also delicious. We will definitely be back! read more

I went here because my main place was closed, and let me tell you this is now my go to teriyaki spot. Not only was the customer service amazing, the lady at the front was so nice so helpful and really just a joy to be around but the food is hands down some of the best teriyaki I've had in years. The inside of the store is cute and very welcoming. The beef is actually good quality, the chicken is moist. Even my kids were amazed at how good it was. read more

I would give this place 5 stars for the food quality, but the horrible service took it down to 2 stars. There lady working the front is literally clueless on how customer service works. Won't remake your food is they get it wrong, she can't do more than 1 thing at a time. I asked her for a cup and she got do flustered I couldn't believe it. You can't ring someone out and get an empty cup at the same time? Multitasking is a must when working the counter. SHE IS THE WORST, but the food is good. It's like polar opposites. If you do coke here just get it to go because the food is tasty, and if the front counter lady was gone, this place would get a5 star! read more

I do not support business that don't respect the elderly. Horrible service. Horrible front desk woman. My sick father and I walked into the store only to grab some dinner. She was rude, kept talking over my dad, and even though we let her know we will be eating in-store, she told us they were closing despite the fact that they were not closing till 9 (it was 8:30 when we got the food). read more

I have been in several times over the years I have lived in the area. The service has always been friendly and the food good. I came in today and ordered the salmon bento box, as well as the Crispy Spicy Tuna Roll. I was skeptical about the quality of the sushi, but my concern was for nothing. You'll notice there is no photo of my sushi roll, that's because I inhaled it all during the four block drive home. While it wasn't very spicy, it was delicious. Each bite melted in my mouth. The salmon bento box was full of delicious food. There were two moist pieces of salmon, three gyoza, two crispy prawn tempura, an egg roll and rice. I wasn't able to much after enjoying the large portion of sushi. Absolutely delicious! read more

Big Teriyaki - Salmon bento box - Japanese Near Me - Lynnwood, Washington

This is my go to teriyaki place. My wife introduced this place to me a couple of years ago, and they have always been consistent in what they serve. I always go with the chicken katsu. The portions are big, and you definitely get what you pay for. It comes with extra teriyaki sauce, and some katsu sauce. Extra sauces are available to purchase, but honestly, you won't need it. The chicken katsu is super crispy on the outside, while the chicken remains moist. The lady behind the counter (I think she's the owner) is very sweet and nice...always has a friendly smile. Inside you'll find about 5-6 tables, but I always take my orders to go. It's a quaint little place, with plenty of parking. read more

1st thing I have to say is this place is clean! Not fancy but someone dusts every corner of this place which I am a germaphobe so that was a amazing start and says a lot about their restaurant. The food was was really good other than the teriyaki had too much sauce. Recommend to ask for 1/2 the sauce with some on the side. Customer service was great and its conveniently just off the highway. read more

Delicious beef teriyaki and fast service. Their bubble tea with the pearls is definitely my favorite.

Every time I eat here (or take my meal with me) the food is delicious and expertly cooked and presented. Service is swift; all staff polite, pleasant, and professional. The restaurant is always clean, well-lit, and welcoming. I look forward to my next visit. As a vegan, I appreciate their delectable and plentiful options, as well as their largely non-vegan menu for my friends. read more

So I'm not a huge fan of the teriyaki I have tried the orange chicken, grilled chicken, beef and broccoli and the spicy chicken. It's all ok and will satisfy but the sushi was surprisingly really good. My daughter really wanted sushi so I was like ok why not and it was good. Definitely going back for the sushi. I had caterpillar, California rolls. read more

Coming to eat in, is okay, the portion they give you is big, but ordering to take it home. It's a big NO, the portion lessened maybe because you won't be able to go back to complain about it. My first time to order beef short ribs, for to go, when I got home, was so disappointing. Only got 7 pcs of ribs and they spread it to look like there's a lot. read more

Cody and I swung in here Friday night for a quick bite to eat. We saw that it had decent reviews and we both love a good teriyaki place! Upon walking up, Cody saw a sign outside promoting Yangnyum Chicken that looked delicious in the photo! So we ordered: - Yangnyum Chicken $17+ (comes with pickled daikon, shredded cabbage with dressing on side, rice, and large order of the chicken) - Teriyaki Chicken and General Tsao Chicken Combo $11.99 - side of egg rolls - bill was around $36 There was no price listed for the Yangnyum Chicken, just a description of the chicken itself. So when the total rang up hire than expected, we then asked how much the Yagnyum was, and the lady explained it was $17+ but it is a whole chicken. So we went with it and when it got served, it was way more than what we had originally expected! It's like a spicy sweet saucy Korean Fried Chicken dish. It was def tasty! But Cody said if he knew the price, he wouldn't have ordered it because we weren't looking to order that much food! Oh well, we tried something new. The teriyaki chicken was great here and I liked their teriyaki sauce! As for the General Tsao Chicken, it was soggy. Wish it was more crispy. We had so much food, we ended up taking home leftovers, and it fed us another meal! Overall, we enjoyed the food here and would come back. read more

We recently moved into the area and have only had take out here (havent dined in) but it's been delicious both times! We've gotten the chicken teriyaki spicy and the chicken katsu spicy. No complaints here, the flavor is amazing and just spicy enough. Honestly I'm a bit surprised by the mixed reviews here because the food itself is delicious. Also this place has great hours and is convenient if you live nearby or are passing through the area. read more

I always see this place whenever we drive by so we decided to try this place out. The price is decent but they don't give much rice. I'll probably substitute the salad for rice (I'm a rice lover) next time. I ordered a mocha bubble tea & I liked it as well. Good customer service. If you dine in they take the food to you also. read more

I always get Mongolian beef , my goodness you get all the vegetables sautéed with the juiciness from the beef , the beef is perfect and packed with lots of flavors. This is like my go to place and in my opinion, they bless you with a lot in one plate. Thanks read more

There's getting to be quite a bit of teriyaki along this stretch of 99, and these guys are another solid addition to the mix. They have plenty of parking, a clean restaurant, and fair prices. They get the job done for sure. This is a busy strip mall at a busy intersection, but very easy to get to. And there's more parking most of the time than you might expect. They have a small, relatively narrow space in one of the units, and most of it is a big bustling grill and kitchen area, with a small register counter. There's free soup at the front of the counter, and a soda fountain (with more drinks in the cooler in the back). They have all different teriyakis, udon, a bunch of different stuff on the menu. Prices range from around $7-8 up to about $10. I had the chicken yakiudon, which was about $9 after tax. There's definitely more rice and noodle than there is protein and veg in this dish, but that's to be expected. The noodles are huge, but they have decent texture and flavor. A little salty for my liking, but as an occasional treat that's OK. The staff are super nice. I could definitely see coming back here again. read more

10:32 a.m. It's still closed. One guy slipped in front of me and closed the door behind him with no single word.

I'm a vegetarian and this is the best teriyaki place in all of Lynnwood/Mukilteo. I've been to countless teriyaki places and this one is exceptional! The woman who takes your order has a super sweet disposition and the food is incredible. It is tasty and made perfectly! love this place and I highly recommend it! read more

I have been going to Big Teriyaki for a couple of years. I have got the spicy chicken many times. and it has been good in the past. (red spicy sauce) This time the spicy chicken was onions and chicken no red spicy sauce. I think it is under new ownership. I will not make that mistake again. It was unedible!!!!!! THE WORST KEEP YOUR MONEY. MY wife got the kung pao chicken and it was also bad. I think it was like $ 32 and change what a waste of money. read more

Very dry, unflavorfull, also didn't come with soy sauce packets or teriyaki sauce womp womp

When eating here the other day, I hardly expected their food to be as good as it was. As I always love to eat Asian food, this place stood out because of its location. The employees were nice and helpful with the menu. Everything was moderately priced based on the quality of food. I actually have no problem with their pricing because I was very satisfied with their food. Service (despite being extremely busy with online orders) was very good! I didn't have to wait too long for my food, and the server brought it out for me. I would definitely recommend this place if you're in the area. I would even drive a couple of miles to this location to make sure I am satisfied at the end of my meal. read more

Big food portion and reasonable price. They have complimentary soups: miso and egg drop. My husband and I ordered spicy chicken teriyaki (this is our favorite, it comes with rice), veggies yakisoba (comes with rice) and mongolian chickens. All were good. I recommend this place. read more

Really good I wish the portions were larger. Chicken teriyaki is good! Beef teriyaki is good! Short ribs and noodles are good!

I would give this place a 5 star because of the food itself, but had to give it a 3 because of the poor service. I have been there twice and on the first experience my kids and i loved it. I am a single father of 3 and i don't drive because of my visual impairment so we have to catch the bus everywhere which is fine, but we don't get to go out to eat a lot. After the first time going to Big Teriyaki, we were hooked. It was really amazing Chinese food, and at a Teriyaki place none the less. So, we just had to go again. On the second time going we had very poor service. I have 3 kids under 10 years old and my oldest loves Mongolian Beef. So we ordered 2 orders of that, one for me and one for my son. We also ordered some sweet & sour chicken as well. Well I love my food spicy so i got a 5 star and my son got a 2 star of the Mongolian beef. When the food cam out it looked amazing as usual, but my sons beef was too spicy for him. I feel like they didn't use 2 pots to cook the beef in and instead used the same pot they used to make my spicy Mongolian beef. When I asked my son if her would like me to ask them to remake his order because it was too spicy they told me NO! They main lady that took our order also brought the chief out as well to tell me they will not remake my sons order. I was shocked by this! I really couldn't believe they would make a 10 year old choose between not eating dinner or eating a dinner that was way too spicy for him. He did not eat his food and that's too bad because he really loved this place. I even asked the chief that if i take his order and ordered another plate of Mongolian beef that if it was too spicy I could get a refund on that order. I was willing to take the hit on one meal and purchase another one because my son loved this place so much and i wanted him to eat something. They again said NO! They said that if i purchased another order and it was too spicy that i would have to pay for that one too. I said NO Thank You, I don't want to keep purchasing food from you and you make it too spicy and I'm out another $14 on something he can't eat! The food is great, but get it to-go so you don't have to deal with these people. Also, we will NOT be going here again. Back to Golden House in Mukilteo(They have Amazing service). At Big Teriyaki, the food is good, but i can tell they are after that bottom dollar not the customer. read more

I had money on my card and for some reason they kept saying it was declined declined my card wasn't locked or blocked or anything like that but I made it to where I couldn't even get lunch on my break from work super inconvenient since it was their machine read more

The food is delicious. The chicken breast meat is awesome. I am a big fan of that. However, my favorite is the short ribs. The portions are reasonable and they also give you a free beverage with soup if you eat in. My wife and I are selective on teriyaki places and we are very satisfied with this place. The customer service isn't like butler service but meets are expectations as a mom and pop's should. Not that it's a part of my star review but it's a plus to have the cashier speak decent English and if they didn't I would still give them the same rating. read more

Big Teriyaki - Short Ribs - Japanese Near Me - Lynnwood, Washington

As Teriyaki goes it's consistently good. Should be a busier place, but they've combined Chinese with Japanese. In my personal opinion, this is a mistake. They're stuck in a lunch motif. Branch out into sushi lose the two dimensional Chinese cuisine and add some Korean for a real step up into the dinner world. The location is a bit difficult to get into and out of, but for lunch that should not stop you. The teriyaki is really good. The portions are generous. The decor is nice enough and the ownership is working themselves to death to make it work......bless their hearts! Miso and egg drop soups gratis as well as hot tea. Bubble tea for desert and a food coma is where I'm headed! Love this place! read more

Been going to this place a handful of times. It was pretty good, but seems like their service has been going downhill lately. Stopped by today during the afternoon. They were somewhat busy, but I was the first in line and a line formed a few mins later with mostly takeout orders. Instead of taking my order so that I can sit down(I dont mind waiting for my food). The gentleman thought it was a good idea to process every takeout order that comes through and completely ignored me for a good 20mins. Decided to just leave and take my business to the nearby Ichi Teriyaki joint, which had way better service, even though they were as busy as Big Teriyaki. read more
