This is the best teriyaki restaurant in the area. Chicken Katsu is nice and crispy. Beef teriyaki is tasty. We also enjoy the shrimp fried rice. read more

Best teriyaki in Covington. The folks here are friendly and very busy because the food is so good and in high demand. Worth the wait on a busy night! read more

Best teriyaki place in the county. I go there every week. Always fresh and yummy. Clean inside.

So good. I can only order here if I want lunch & dinner because of the huge portions. I especially like the shrimp. Cooked perfectly. Service is excellent. Very nice personnel. read more

Best teriyaki in town! We have tried the other places and they just don't compare! I personally enjoy the number 19!

Rude customer service made wrong order on both items ordered and then told me to fuck off when I said he should listen to his customers. Such a disgraceful shame read more

Good quick spot to pick up teriyaki by my place the cashier does everything take orders, run food, and answer the phone! It's always crazy busy and pretty reliable read more

Great food, great service, great location (did I say great too many times)? The food is consistently good and always reasonably priced. I kinda hate to post a good review for fear that so many people will discover this place that I won't be able to get a seat... read more

"Typical Teriyaki" Today my boyfriends family and I went to grab a quick lunch. We got an order of gyoza, teriyaki chicken, beef, and shrimp along with some vegetable yakisoba. All of the meat was fairly standard, nothing too spectacular or bad tasting along with the gyoza as well. It was nice that the shrimp came with their own garlic dipping sauce which was pretty good. The vegetable yakisoba I got was nothing special. It had a good tasting teriyaki sauce that was border line on the sweet side. The vegetables were cut pretty nicely but I typically don't like mushrooms, baby corns or water chestnuts in my yakisoba. I was expecting more cabbage, onion, celery and carrots in my yakisoba and was a little disappointed that I didn't have that much. Overall not the greatest teriyaki I have ever had but it did the job for a quick lunch. read more

So good and what a great service. Every time I've been here the chicken and beef have been cooked to perfection. Cannot wait to go back again. read more

I went to Covington teriyaki at Lunchtime and I ask the host if they could make the General Tao's Chicken with tofu instead of chicken. He told me flatly NO. I then explained that they had made it for me last week and I thought is was good his response was "We don't have this" I turned around and went to Benjarong Thai Cuisine one block away. I had Pad Cashew with tofu and it was great. I hope Covington Teriyaki will consider changing their attitude for those of us on a plant based diet. Robert read more

Covington Teriyaki - Benjarong Thai one block from Covington Teriyaki!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! - Japanese Near Me - Covington, Washington

Let me start off by saying I really like the food here. My issue with Covington Teriyaki is this: They have a closing time of 9:00, yet I arrived 10 minutes before closing. As I was pulling up another customer had just sat down after placing their order. As I walk in an employee ( who I later find out is the owner) is hanging their ticket in the window. I walked half way to the counter and he tells me that they are closed and that they close at 9:00. I look at my phone and tell him that it's isn't 9:00 and if they are closed maybe they should turn off the sign that says they are open and lock the door. Sorry we're closed he says. I decided a few minutes later to call and speak to the manager. I was just curious if this was a normal practice to close the restaurant down before closing time. The owner/employee who turned me away stated that they take the last order 15 minutes prior to closing. I told him that I also work in a restaurant and that for us closing time is when we take our last order and I've never ...... Then he cuts me off saying sorry there's nothing I can do, over and over again. Again, I always have enjoyed Covington Teriyaki, but I don't like how I was treated and am afraid I'll not be ordering from them again. ( 3.5 stars for the food, and lost 2 for the poor customer management/service) read more

This place is always busy. And if you go, my friend, you'll see why. Good teriyaki. VERY reasonable price. Great serving size. Great menu variety. Call ahead for pickup to save time. PS: They have a dish called the Meat Mountain. Yes. MEAT. MOUNTAIN. read more

Not a bad place for lunch and worth your money. I ordered the large spicy chicken. It came with a salad, rice, and a lot of chicken. The chicken was grilled perfectly. The spicy sauce that they coated the chicken with was great. It was not too spicy, but it had a kick and had lots of garlic. The cashier/server was a bit rude, but it was not something that would ruin my day. Definitely a good lunch spot that is worth your money. read more

After the good reviews, we thought we'd give this place a try. To add to the "not their fault" file, the credit card machine was not working. That in and of itself is not a big deal, but the fact that the folks working there were concentrating on that fact (the phone lines were down, so I anticipate that was affecting business since no one could place orders over the phone) as opposed to serving the folks waiting. So we waited for about 30 minutes to get our food, and when it arrived, it was less than exemplary. My wife couldn't finish the chicken fried rice since it was incredibly oversalted, and my spicy chicken teriyaki was not at all spicy. I'll pass and stick with Four Corner Teriyaki in the MV. read more

Yummiest Teriyaki in Covington with good size portions and the friendly service is a bonus. My girls love eating here. But fair warning: the wait can be a little long when they are busy but it's worth it. read more

This place takes forever to make their food =( I came in when there were only 1 person ahead of me, but I'm still waiting after 15 minutes of ordering. I'm hungry and got to get back to work in a bit. Food better be good... read more

I came here because of the great ratings from other yelp users and I was hopeful. When I came in about 730 on a friday it was pretty busy and the staff informed me so and orders would take a bit longer like 25-30 mins. I was like ok sure. After the 30mins had gone by he came with a dish but it wasn't what I ordered. Another 15 mins went by and came by with another order not what I ordered. Finally 10 mins later he brings me my dish but not my daughters food... I get it, it was busy clearly under staffed as there were tables everywhere that needed to be bussed. Not up to my normal standards of the teriyaki places I frequent. I am curious how it is normally. I might not find out. read more

I went to Covington Teriyaki Friday evening for dinner. We decided to eat there instead of a to-go order. The setting was okay, and the food was prepared and served rather quickly. The food was good, almost as good as Kami Teriyaki which closed in Covington a few months ago. This was our first time and the overall consensus is that we would go again. I would have given a 5 star, but their window posted health report was Good and not excellent. I take those serious since they are an indication of health safety and consumer safety. I hope they are rated excellent by health department next time. read more

Great teriyaki place. I'm not just saying this because of the cute guy behind the counter, but the food is great. I love their brown rice with chicken teriyaki. The sause is perfect sweet and I also get and extra sause to go I believe they sell it there for .25 ¢ but the guy always gives it to me for free. I also have tried fried rice and I love that they offer a brown rice. The chow mein was great too. No complains. The portions are huge and they also offer smaller if you like. read more

Covington Teriyaki - Large portions. Brown rice is great, sause is amazing - Japanese Near Me - Covington, Washington

My husband bought dinner from here for our son, his girlfriend and for us. Chicken katsu was over cooked and tasted like over used oil. In the past, he always enjoyed the teriyaki and yakisoba. He said they were busy filling to go orders so service was slow. Not a happy experience tonight. read more

Covington Teriyaki, oh Covington Teriyaki.. words cannot express how I feel about this place. I have been going here for 7 years. And it is still the best teriyaki I've ever eaten. For six months straight I went to this place once or twice a week just to eat their general tso's chicken. If the Voyager Golden Record was replaced with food I would single handily cheat the system to make sure this food is in that rocket. Every person I have shown to this place is converted like it's a cult, Covington Teriyaki is my religion. There is no other place in the Covington/Kent/maple valley area that compares to this place. This place is the thanos of teriyaki. If I was put in a situation to risk losing my children's lives vs never eating here again. I would choose Covington Teriyaki. 10 times outta 10. God bless Covington Teriyaki read more

We Covington Teriyaki, Great food, Huge Selection and a GREAT value for the price!! I myself am not a huge chicken teriyaki fan. This is some weird aversion from when I was pregnant. However, the beef teriyaki, is tender and very flavorful . My favorite combo is the general Tso's chicken and beef teriyaki combo. ***This is enough for two average adults and the price is $8.55. Unbelievable. My friends mom had the shrimp stir fry the other day. I thought her mom was gonna fall over when she saw the huge amount of food they brought her. My friend got the chicken teriyaki lunch special for $5.29. It is a one person portion. If you are quite hungry, you may want a different option. I like the fact that they have brown rice, although, $1.00 more is a bit spendy. They also serve fish and chips and a bento box which we have yet to try . read more

Website says $13 for a large beef, they charged me $18. Even their store menu says $16 not $18 so thats apparently wrong too. It's fine if you've increased your prices by $1 or something, but that's just a lying rip off. They've always been my favorite but this is just a joke. read more

The best teriyaki chicken I've had to date. Super fresh chicken cooked perfectly with a big portion of rice. There is definitely a reason this place is highly rated. Come here for good quality teriyaki, and good customer service! read more

I've been coming here for many years!! This is my favorite teriyaki place. The original owners were very nice and the new owner is also very nice, friendly and outgoing. He greets all of his customers as if he were greeting a long lost friend. The food and the menu remained the same, even after the change in ownership. I highly recommend this place to anybody looking for great teriyaki!! The tempura is also very good!! The batter is very light, like it should be. read more

Best teriyaki place ever! We are so impressed with this place. They are very nice there and their food is delicious. Their portions are huge and when you eat in, it feels like you are eating in a nice restaurant rather than a take-out place. They have some really good fish and chips for those people you bring along with you that aren't teriyaki fans. They are also very accommodating, I am a picky eater and they are always willing to work with the substitutions that I ask for (at least with the vegetable tempura.) read more

food is good not outstanding but good. customer service sucks and do t trust the website because they haven't updated it for "10 years" so it said $7.99 for a rice bowl and I walked out of there paying $17 (I did add an egg roll) but that should t cost $9. wont be going back. read more

Doesn't beat my favorite teriyaki joint, but so far best teriyaki place in the Covington area. Fast, prompt and good customer service.

For the price and the amount of food you get, it's a deal. I recently tried another teriyaki place and the flavor is just so different and the amount was smaller than what I would usually get at Covington teriyaki. I will continue coming here, plus the service is great! read more

My wife an I went here for the first time last weekend and we were pleased. The dining area was clean and well kept. The staff was very friendly and happy to answer our questions. My wife ordered the teriyaki combo and enjoyed it very much. I ordered the special fried rice. The portion size was very generous (more than I could finish). It was a bit dry and under-seasoned, but better than many other places that I have tried. Overall: Great service, good food, reasonable prices. We'll be going back. :) read more

This is my number one spot for teriyaki. Huge portions, good pricing, and obviously, deliciousness is key. On top of all that, the staff is personable and friendly. I haven't branched put much on the menu but the beef fried rice is always great but the spicy chicken teriyaki is so on point. I usually opt for this when feeling indecisive. The side orders of vegetable tempura is about 8 huge pieces (one order feeds 2 people easy). And the side order of rib fingers is also an easy 2 person plate. I've yet to dine in, always get it to go but the wait time is quick - 15ish minutes everything is hot and perfect. read more

Great food at a great price. I had their lunch special and it provided enough to get me filled up. Very clean establishment and the cashier was very courteous. Definitely would come back here again. read more

Customer service was not good. I called in my order and requested sauce on the side. I have a toddler and a kindergartener and they don't like sauce on it. When I went to pick up my order they had put sauce on it and I told them that I asked for it on the side and the lady continued to deny that I did. I wouldn't have a problem with making a mistake and maybe this time I forgot but it was just her rude attitude like she did not care and I just needed to take the food. I was not trying to get anything for free but receive what I requested. I feel like the few times I've been there it seems like the lady at the front has a slight attitude and I want no part. The food is tasty but I will not continue to go back and receive that type of service. They need to learn to value their customers and care about how they treat them. read more

The food is good, rice is a little dry. The service is what brought this rating down. This teriyaki joint came highly recommended, but employee working the front counter was more interested in his phone than actually paying attention. Brought us the wrong order, which he dropped and went right back to his phone behind the register. I went up to counter to tell him this was someone else's order and then he had to resubmit my husband's correct order to the kitchen because he did it wrong the first time. Meanwhile, I get my food while my husband is waiting for his. If it was busy, I could see the oversight but there was one other person in the dining area when we arrived. I don't know if I would come back here, and I would certainly hesitate to get takeout due to the lack of attention to detail. read more

Forgot to close my mouth when they brought a giant dish to the table. It wasn't a lot of food but it looks gigantic. I love the chicken, was really tender. Gyoza was not good but I like the dish overall. The guy who works there was really nice, made us feel welcoming. read more

Covington Teriyaki - It would be better without the gyoza. - Japanese Near Me - Covington, Washington

This place is amazing, there food is always warm and delicious!! The owner is super kind and always welcoming to anyone!

I love this place -- it's my go to & that's not just because I work next door. I get the combo of chicken breast teriyaki & gyozas! It's SOO good.. Hits the spot every time! I used to go to another teriyaki place but it's farther away and this is much closer to where I live -- bonus, food and serve is great too! Highly recommended. read more

Yummy food, great service, overall just a really great small family owned place. We recommend this place to all our family and friends in the area! read more

After reading all the great reviews I was looking forward to trying this place out. Everything was good. Quick service, clean place, food was good. The fact that they were so busy on a Wednesday evening shows people like it. We had their classic chicken teriyaki and a side order of Gyoza. Gyoza tasted as it should, teriyaki had a different taste then most I've had, but still was good. Dressing on the salad on the other hand was very different from what I expected and usually have at other places. Didn't really care for the taste of it. Nothing though of this place stood out or make me think it was better than favorite teriyaki place. read more
