Pretty close to authentic Seattle Teriyaki,, I would recommend them to anyone who knows Seattle teriyaki

I went to Missoula for work a couple of months ago and decided to take a colleague out to dinner. I read the reviews at this location so I was really excited to give it a try. When we arrived the place was dark, dated, and empty. I think this is one of those places where you take your food to go. When we got to the counter there were four young guys that were in the back and manning the grill. Two of them were just hanging out and chatting while the other two were actually working. They said they were backed up and we needed to wait to order so we took a seat. About 5 minutes later they were able to put together the last orders they were working on and pulled us up to the counter. We both ordered the small Combo, which came with half Teriyaki Chicken and half Sweet Onion Steak over rice. First let's start with the good. The small combo was well priced, comes with a lot of food, and cooked fresh on the grill. As for the taste, it was smokey and not in a good way and bitter. We were hoping the sauce would balance out the flavors but ended up being way too salty. Overall, not the best experience. Maybe this was an off day. read more

Dobi’s Teriyaki - Teriyaki Chicken - Japanese Near Me - Missoula, Montana

Stopped by Missoula on our way up to glacier. Decided to give this spot a try. I ordered a small half chicken half beef/onion and added veg. It was delicious and I wish I ordered a large instead. read more

Dobi’s Teriyaki - Actually really good! Would come back but get a large! - Japanese Near Me - Missoula, Montana

I have never been left more conflicted when it comes to teriyaki food. This was my first time ordering from Dobi's. When the food arrived I was pleasantly surprised by the generous portions. It may be speedy but you definitely get your moneys worth. Now as to the reasoning behind my three star review and why two stars were left off. The food was very much lacking in ANY teriyaki flavor. Their sauce is way too thin and they definitely don't give enough, I even ordered double sauce and still could have used easily three times more. The meat was wonderfully cooked and had a great BBQ/grill flavor. But I didn't order BBQ chicken or beef, I ordered teriyaki, which was so lacking that I don't think I will ever try this place again. When I crave teriyaki, and I order teriyaki, I expect teriyaki!! Still on the hunt for a great teriyaki in Missoula!!! Where can it be found?! read more

Dobi's has moved to the front as far as teriyaki in Missoula, and for that matter, Montana. I ordered the teriyaki chicken with extra chicken. Lots of chicken, done the way I like it, and rice. I held back a star, hoping that someday they will thicken up their teriyaki sauce just a bit and add a finely shredded but not too sweet coleslaw. read more

Just what you want. Quick to-go, reliable, delicious. Highly recommend the beef and onions or a combo. Large size will give you lunch for tomorrow. read more

Really good Seattle-style Teriyaki in DT Missoula. Cool $2 beer specials with dinner. Nice guys behind the grill. Cool bar to the side. Open pretty late. A couple parks nearby to eat at riverside. Came in late from Seattle/Idaho and found this place randomly. If you're feeling like some yaki in Missoula, or are from Seattle and need something of similar style this is probably your best bet in town. Very convenient location too. Plenty of parking. read more

Easy and something quick for a pick up order. Not the place I'd recommend for a sit down meal, but more something to grab and go. Decent flavor, but would have expected more toppings on a Large order. read more

Dobi’s Teriyaki - Large Veggie Stir Fry - Japanese Near Me - Missoula, Montana

We found this spot for a last-minute meal before catching a flight. First off I really enjoyed the food. Simple menu that they do well, and I like that they had an option to add veggies. The snow peas really kicked it up a notch, and the sauce was great. I got the small, which was a generous portion. Unfortunately I'd have a hard time ever going back here because they're still serving everything in wasteful and polluting styrofoam containers. What is this, a 1985 McDonalds? There are plenty of more environmentally friendly options now days. Also, even though we were there on a slower Monday night, our food took forever to come out. The guy at the counter said 10-15 mins, and it ended up being about twice that. They were friendly though. I can see how this place would be popular in a college town, I just wish they'd do better with their packaging. read more

This is hands down the best joint in Missoula. I don't care what anyone says. Ordered a small steak and chicken combo for $8. This is easily a steal of a deal. The steak is flavorful and the chicken thighs cooked to perfection. Their house-made spicy teriyaki sauce absolutely slaps. All of these meats atop a bed of perfectly steamed rice. If you haven't been here, please go. If I lived in Missoula, I'd be here twice a week. Sometimes doing some simple extremely well, beats out any boujie restaurant with fancy playing. Hands down the best meal I've had in a minute. read more

See all

Love this place! First of all, the teriyaki is authentic and tasty. Secondly, there is no skimping on the meat! The large size plate is huge and can feed two people. (They have different types of sauce too.) Thirdly, the service is quick and friendly. Where else can you go to get great meal, walk 10 feet and sit down at the bar and get a dollar off just for ordering at Dobi's? This is a Missoula well kept secret. I almost don't even want to write a review lest people catch on and there's a line out the door some day. read more

As other reviewers mention, the staff are super friendly. The food was ready fast. Portions were huge and delicious. Everything you want in a teriyaki joint and nothing you don't read more

So much food! The food is probably really good when you have a couple beers, bud definitely not the worst. The smell of bleach isn't to blame the restaurant but the location. I'll definitely be back, but to go so I can add my own ingredients at home. read more

Absolutely my favorite place to eat in Missoula solely because this is the BEST teriyaki you can get in Missoula. Always fresh, always sticky rice, and always thick teriyaki sauce. Adding the onions, peas and peppers for $1 is the best way to go on your sweet onion steak or grilled chicken. I moved from WA state in 2009 and I've been missing the righteous flavor until Dobi's showed up in a truck. Their combinations of Hawaii (my favorite place on Earth) and Seattle influences are perfect and remind me of home state every time. Since teriyaki is easy to take and go, and only a few minutes to pick up, it's a great filling and delicious lunch option. I honestly cannot recommend them enough. GET OVER THERE ALREADY. read more

This place is legit. The flavors are so great you can't stop eating!!! Had the Combo with spicy teriyaki and it was amazing. The prices are very good considering the portions. Great place to eat. read more

Came here our first day in Montana to eat something quickly and was not expecting to love it this much! It was a very nice amount of rice but also chicken! The sauce was fantastic! The bar it is located inside is calm at least when we went. The whole trip we could not stop thinking about this place and how we needed to go one more time before leaving! Great find and recommend to anyone! read more

Best teriyaki I have ever had!! Had the big classic with half and half sauce. Off the hook!! Can't wait to try the steak and onion!! This is a must have when in Missoula, great job dudes! read more

Dobi’s Teriyaki - Full classic with half and half sauce, amazing!! Legit Yaki!!! - Japanese Near Me - Missoula, Montana

I usually love coming to Dobi's, but recently the customer service has been lacking. They have forgotten an item the past two times I've been in, so I decided to take a break from eating there. I haven't eaten there in a few months and decided to give them a try for dinner last night. I dialed their number to place an order over the phone. A guy there answered and asked if I could be put on hold, I said yes, naturally. I thought it would take a few minutes, but I was put on a 30 minute hold! 30 minutes!! To order food! It was ridiculous. I hung up after 30 minutes because I couldn't figure out for the life of me why they'd put me on hold for 30 minutes. I tried calling back a few different times after that. No answer. I was very disappointed. I ended up going somewhere else for dinner. Not sure if I'll be trying Dobi's again anytime soon. read more

Plain and mildly flavorful. Small containers, makes it look your getting a lot more for what your paying for, which is expensive.

Best teriyaki in town! Always great customer service. Always appreciative of your business! Food is always great

A couple reasons why I love Dobi's. 1. Local! As a University of Montana graduate myself, I love to see our alum out doing awesome things. The owner/founder has lived in Missoula since his college days and this is a business he has grown from the ground up...from food truck to permanent space - GO GRIZ! 2. DELICIOUS! Dobi's is amazing...NUFF Said! 3. Value - you can get a large lunch/dinner for a great price. Keep up the good work Dobi's! Every time I am home in Missoula I swing by and am currently rocking their bumper sticker I love them so much. read more

Food is good. Be expecting it to be in a dive bar (because it is). The service is closer to fast food esk but that's okay. I always ask for extra veggies! It's so good. read more

Incredible food here. The menu is simple. Chicken or steak, veggies, with rice. Spicy or regular sauce but it's absolutely amazing. One of my favorite spots to go to! I'd give it more stars if I could. read more

Dobi’s Teriyaki - Japanese Near Me - Missoula, Montana

Go for the classic chicken or the killer sweet onion steak, mix it up and go for both in the same box! Spicy or regular, both are good. I'm a regular person myself. It's a great value for a great meal! The owner, Brett is so nice! The food truck was a staple of my nights downtown, out to lunch and dinners in the park. I am beyond happy to have the option of going inside to grab a meal and now get a beer for under $15. Bonus: the portions are generous-I've never left hungry. Unbeatable deal, unbeatable flavors unique to Dobi's and the service is always top of the line. If you haven't been inside cause you're worried about it inside Stockman's bar, you're missing out! Stocks is a different environment during the day, seating inside or out on the back deck. $2 beers to pair with your Yaki! read more

Hands down best food in Missoula ! If you crave Seattle style Yaki look no further! This place is the Bomb!

Very kind and patient staff! Super easy to order on the phone. The food is great and super tasty! I feel like it's a treat to come in and get Dobi's! I will be recommending all my friends here :) read more

It's so refreshing to see Missoula officially join the PACIFIC Northwest with its first Teriyaki restaurant! Thank you Brett and team. The Brotastic Hawaiian/Surfer/UW Earl's Ave feel is perfectly blended with Missoula's legendary Stockmans environment. Absolute A+ as a cultural move. As great as the cheap hamburgers and stiff drinks at the Missoula Club and Oxford etc are, Teriyaki is way better and healthier as well all know deep down. Nothing but great things to say about the prices, especially the sweet beef and chicken combo with sweet pea add-on. Really the way to do it is to have the time to soak up the food over a few insanely discounted $2 drafts at Stockmans. If this is a work lunch just call in ahead as they grill everything up fresh read more

Great food! A little awkward with the set up for COVID but that is to be expected. You have to be on the other side of a table but then you can't really hear the person who is taking your order and asking about sides, sauces, etc. That being said-- the food was bomb, satisfying, and very large orders. read more

The beauty behind Dobi's is the simplicity. Whether you get the sweet onion steak, the chicken, or half and half, you can count on it to be tender and flavorful. They serve it on a bed of rice with a tasty teriyaki sauce (I'm picky about teriyaki sauce and Dobi's is one of two local favorites), and you can adjust the spiciness. You also have the option of adding grilled vegetables. Dobi's is delicious and filling without being a gut bomb. Super happy they now have a storefront location after making the food truck circuit. Go, Dobi's! read more

Although I was a fan of the food truck (because I'm lazy, and it came to me), Dobi's new location is still convenient and the food is amazing. Their teriyaki is delicious and has just the right amount of flavor. It's something I crave often. The portions are large and the prices are very reasonable! read more

Dobi's is one of my favorite restaurants for a quick and fresh meal. I am always impressed with all of their offerings, However the beef is always a great choice. I would rate them as one of the best Teriyaki joints in Missoula. Oh I almost forgot how awesome their staff is, their staff allone would get them 5 stars from me. Make sure you always have a Rice Day! read more

Yelp sucks balls, Dobi is delish... nuff said But because yelp sucks so much they want me to write a paragraph so here I am reiterating that Yelp sucks read more

The best teriyaki bowl I've had! Great flavor, fresh food. I'm sad I don't live in Missoula anymore to enjoy Dobi's more often. Every time I'm in town I make a point to eat here!! SO GOOD. read more

I am new to Missoula Montana. I was previously living in New York and Oregon. I happened upon this place and loved it. I'm coming from New York which has every type of food you can think of... Let's just say Missoula has Italian food, American food, cafe's, pizza, brewing company's and breakfast spots. So when I found this place I couldn't be happier. The beef was good and I was happy to find a place that serves rice. (everything in Missoula is served with potatoes.) If you would like something different look no further. The staff was friendly as well. read more

My wife and I love this place. It was our favorite food truck in town and now one of our favorite spots to grab some quick and easy food. I like the simple menu and feel the portion size is more than reasonable for the relatively low price. Stockman's bar isn't it my favorite bar in town but it definitely has the cheapest beer and is even cheaper when you order food. read more

I visited Dobi's Teriyaki in Missoula a few months back while visiting the Bitterroot River. I didn't leave a review months ago even though I enjoyed the food and friendly staff. While going through my pictures of the trip I came across a picture of Dobi's Beef Teriyaki and thought to myself, let me go leave a review. To my surprise I get to yelp and see these reviews that I feel don't represent how great the food really is. The meat was juicy, flavorful and the staff was amazing. Some of the best food I had while I was out there. read more

Customer service: 2.5/5 decent but took too long, messed up order, and wasn't clear on whose dish was whose. Quality of food: 2.5/5 completely average to every other teriyaki place I've been to. Price: 1/5 price not justifiable for quality and quantity. read more

This place is a fantastic place to have a quick meal. Food is on par with some of the best teriyaki I've had in LA. Like another gem in town, they have a great location INSIDE of a bar so you can get some cheap and deliciously cold beer with your meal. A++ read more

Delicious, filling, and now I can get a beer with my yaki. Jackpot! Highly recommended deliciousness, and a wonderful local business with roots through Missoula. Definitely a place to checkout for locals and tourists alike. read more

Absolutely delicious. I ordered take-out for my family and it was ready in 15 minutes. Food came exactly as ordered and was fantastic. We all tried the chicken/beef combo, but next time I'm just getting the beef with vegetables. The small is about half the size of the large and is completely sufficient for a person who eats small portions or isn't very hungry (me normally). The large is great for someone who wants a lot of food (me while pregnant) or a little bit of leftovers. We'll definitely be back for takeout again soon and to try in-person post-pandemic. read more
