It is a small establishment on the corner. You are able to dine in and the food is quickly prepared, so not long wait times. The chicken teriyaki bowl (chicken and white rice) is my go to meal. It's flame grilled and very tasty! I alway get an extra chop on my chicken for smaller bites! But very delicious! My only drawback is the sauce is a little too thick like jelly! I wish it was more like a Panda Express teriyaki sauce. But overall, cool place and the customer service is decent as well. The ladies at the front counter are respectful and the chef chops your meats of choice right in front of you! read more

Really disgusting when you find a bee or fly on your salad. Now you can tell how clean they wash their salad. We go there often 2/3 times a week. No more this dirty disgusting place. If it's on salad not sure what is in their food. Avoid this dirty place hopefully the manager or health department will take some Kind of action to keep this place and food clean. read more

We have been searching for a flame broiler drive thru near us. We decided to try Golden Bowl based on reviews. I ordered the medium beef teriyaki bowl and my wife ordered the medium beef teriyaki bowl with sliced avocado. We were both disappointed in the meal. The one good thing is they have a drive thru window. Service was good, but the food missed the mark. read more

Golden Bowl - Medium teriyaki bowl - Fast Food Near Me - Gardena, California

This place is a hidden jewel. Been eating here for many years and they've managed to keep the same taste going. Their food tastes fresh. The lady is always very attentive, makes you feel pretty welcoming and always ready to get you what you need to have a good lunch or dinner experience. I've eaten there and the ambiance is pretty chill and just a good spot. Gave it a 4 star. Cause they might need to work on their servings. Food quality is great but might need some quantity adjustments. Overall. Soo good !! read more

Picture doesn't do it justice! I dug in before taking the photo (sorry!) the protein was soft and melted in my mouth. Whatever sauce they use is sweet and delicious !!! Portion size is great and the meal can be for 2 separate seatings in my opinion! I love the protein to rice proportion! It was 2:1 double on the meat which was great for the price. The joint has been here for awhile and they never disappoint. Great spot for a quick meal! read more

Golden Bowl - Half & Half Bowl - Fast Food Near Me - Gardena, California

This location is a nice little place to visit if you're near El Camino. With the option of a drive thru, it can be a convenient stop on the way home or for lunch. Their prices are very reasonable & the portions are respectable for the price. Very good value. Customer service is helpful, quick & bilingual . Usually, I share a mixed plate with both chicken and beef teriyaki, & get it with rice, salad & French fries. They pack the French fries separately from the container that the rest of the food is in, which makes them dangerously snack able on the way home. The French fries are thick cut of course & yummy. Salad is super good especially with the dressing they smother it in. I used a little bit of the salad dressing to eat with some of the meat because it was a little bit dry the last time I went. The chicken could've had a bit more flavor but it was super juicy & tender. The beef was really flavorful & the rice fresh and yummy as it should be! Avocado does go very good with the food , although it's pricey so I might recommend pairing some from home onto the plate. read more

Amazing food! Great customer service and great ambience as well. You smell the charbroiled chicken as you're waiting in the drive thru. Very thorough with their orders. Definitely coming back! read more

This is my favorite golden bowl location with the drive thru. Chicken teryi burger and combo plates are always a hit! Will continue to drive past my Inglewood location for this quality. read more

Looks like last time I came here was 2 years ago. I ordered the same thing - Large beef bowl with avocado. They have been consistent with the food. They serve the same amount of rice, beef, and avocado in the foam container for over ten years that I know of. Highly recommend eating here and always opt for the large since small and medium almost looks identical in size. Looks like they raised the prices quite a bit from 2 years ago. The large beef bowl is almost $3 more today than 2 years ago. The burger prices are up $0.50 to about a dollar more. This place is good and I will come by more often when I'm in the area. read more

Top of da line!!! Better than waba grill they skimpy as hell.. When it comes to the steak its always fresh and their chicken is fresh!!

I used to come here once a week when I went to Elco. More recently, I started to come back once in a while when I am craving teriyaki. I either get the chicken/beef combo plate or the beef teriyaki and fried shrimp. Both are delicious and it's more or less whatever you are craving that day. The plate comes with a little side salad that is always fresh and delicious. Each bowl or plate also comes with teriyaki sauce and Sriracha on the side. I also like to add not he grilled jalapeños on the side as they season them in like a lemon pepper seasoning. Also, adding on avocado makes the whole meal that much better. This is a no frills, straightforward teriyaki place but I feel they do it well and the portions are good. read more

Great taste and they give you plenty. Much different than years ago. Would recommend them now.

Great teriyaki place! I got the half and half (chicken & beef) teriyaki with avocado! Servings are good enough for two people.

One of the best teriyaki places in Los Angeles. This Location and the Sherman oaks location are great. Any time I'm in the area, I try to stop by. read more

I came to golden bowl on a whim one evening. I ordered a half beef, half chicken teriyaki bowl. Their teriyaki is very good. They serve decent serving sizes for a decent price. It's comparable to Aloha teriyaki in my opinion. I love that they have a drive thru for added convenience. I'll be back! read more

Super filling large bowl. Was in the middle of a remodel during my visit installing new fixtures in the restroom and painting the exterior of the building patio seats and exterior lighting. Looks like they poured new concrete parking lot and freshly painted strips in the parking lot. On the way to looking great again. read more

I love this place. Never had a bad dish from them. The half and half plate is my jelly jam. Glad they are on Postmates.

looks sus on the outside but don't be fooled. the chicken was pretty good but the beef no bueno...it's literally shredded beef like for philly cheesesteaks. also i wish they didn't have the salad (i have cancer i cannot eat uncooked food) and you should be able to choose the dressing ‍ but the teriyaki sauce was good read more

I ordered here on Uber Eats thinking it was the one located in Southgate and oh my God there's a huge difference. If you are used to eating at the location at Southgate, please do not go here. Not only do they skimp you out on avocado, but the taste is not the same. The quality is absolutely unmatched to the one in Southgate. Will never order here again. I would have never ordered Uber Eats if I would've known that it was from this location. read more

Golden is bowl is good its sometimes hit and miss but it usually hits. I've been going here for lunch every now and again for a year now. I usually get a beef or chicken teriyaki bowl. The quality is what I'd expect from a place like this . The quality isn't anything out of this world its just good. sometimes the wait might be long if there is people waiting in the drive thru and people ordering at the pickup window. I like this place because its healthy compared to the options right around it like Mcdonalds, subway, dominos, canes. read more

Complaints. None. This place is what you need for your next teriyaki fix. Have you ever come home from a long day and craved bbq and rice but didn't want to wait in line? This is exactly for those instances. Will you take date here; probably not. The better date place is the dining hall at the McDonald's across the street. If you want quick fast and delicious this is where you go. This place simply does everything right. Fluffy yet firm rice. Slightly charred meat. Light sauce with additional sauce on the side. Come here if you're an easy going person who just wants good bbq with rice. read more

I've been coming here for years and I keep telling myself to stop coming here. Every time I go the chicken and beef are burnt to a crisp and it taste like it's been sitting there for hours. When your paying $16 for a plate, the meat should be cooked when you order it. They also forget to add the $2 avocado I pay for. read more

Definitely not a Yoshinoya by any stretch of imagination. Yes you can expect a wait through the drive thru but hey, it's not a fast food chain. Speaking of food, got the Teri bowl plus the chicken and fish combo = not bad. Prices = also not bad. Overall= not bad read more

I've been on Yelp for a while now but never left reviews for businesses because I never felt the need to - that is, until I tried Golden Bowl. I've heard about this restaurant from my best friend a while ago but didn't have the chance to try it as I currently reside in San Francisco. I drove by this place recently and decided to give it a try. And boy, have I been missing out. Golden Bowl is a gem of a restaurant conveniently located next to El Camino College offering a variety of options at affordable prices. I've tried many teriyaki bowls in my lifetime (call me a teriyaki aficionado, if you will), and this place easily makes my top 3. This review is for the large chicken teriyaki bowl with avocado. Meat to rice ratio was spot on and the large amount of avocado on top was a pleasant surprise. The chicken was moist and flavorful and had great grill marks. Golden Bowl did a great job tying the chicken, rice, and avocado together with their house-made sauce - not too little, not too much (most places drown their bowls with teriyaki sauce to mask the imperfections of their chicken and rice). Overall, a very pleasurable experience. As far as teriyaki bowls go, this place knows exactly what it's doing. If you're around the area, try this place out. You will not be disappointed. read more

The food is delicious. Definitely going back. The food portions are also huge. The service was also good. Is a bit far from my house, however definitely worth the drive read more

Discovered Golden Bowl during COVID. Good place for a quick bite. Love the half and half plate. Service is always quick. One caution - make sure you are ordering from the right one. There are two of them that are close in Gardena. read more

This place is terrible ordered my food took over 20 mins everyone else was getting there food before me even a guy that ordered 3 people after me if u have a bunch of free time to spend come here if u want good service don't come here u won't find it read more

Second time I get here at 8:30pm and they give me the excuse that the cook has left for the day. If you guys don't want to serve after 8:30pm then update your closing time to 8:30pm not 9pm and stop giving bullshit excuses. Second time I waste my time coming here. As you can see in the picture the cook is there. It's always one cook! I've been coming here for years & this is disappointing. read more

F**k you guys , got there at 8:45 knowing damn well you guys close at 9 ... only to the girl up front ( who is usually nice ) come out here to tell us that they close at 9 , and I responded with the time I got there ( with a car in front of me ) and her excuse was I had my headset on and she couldn't hear us , don't you guys have cameras ? Check them ..... I knew I should've gotten down myself if that's what it took but THE LINE WAS MOOOVING ! Which is why I was waiting in the first place ... smh ... read more

"GOL-DEN-BOWWWLLLL!!!" *PARODY of Ludacris' "Throw Them Bows"* My girlfriend's older brother got me into this place a few years ago. He told me to get the regular teriyaki chicken bowl and WOW! It was delicious! I'm a big fan of Flame Broiler and seriously...Golden Bowl's teriyaki is an awesome alternative to Flame Broiler. Hell, it also tops Yoshinoya!!! Last night, I was hungry as hell, looked at the clock and it was almost 9:00pm, so that means that Flame Broiler is CLOSED :( So my girlfriend's brother tells me "Why don't you get some Golden Bowl?". I was like.... "umm... isn't it far?", but my lady reminded me how there's one in Gardena, so me craving some healthy non red meat food at night, I ended up at Golden Bowl!!! I usually get the regular sized bowl, but since I didn't eat anything all day, I ended up getting their large teriyaki chicken veggie bowl and it looked so delicious... http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/J7NzJFtM2wNlgdTqYrLYYg?select=lsjpOhkmyGK2ZNrrz8s8bQ#lsjpOhkmyGK2ZNrrz8s8bQ ..it reminded me of a Flame Broiler bowl, but BIGGER!!!! The veggie portions as well as the chicken are BIGGER!! It cost a little more for about $9, but that's around as much as a Flame Broiler plater as opposed to it's bowl; but this large Golden Bowl bowl was huge and it piled in a great amount of rice, veggies and chicken. If you're into spicy food, add some sriracha hot sauce!! It's so damn good! Although it is not the best looking food joint, it's quite safe with police driving around who are looking out for the local students at the near-by community college. People who go to El Camino College and/or work locally around this place are very lucky to have such great food like this to eat at, drive thru and get some food to go. Another great quality about this place is the fact that if you're just getting off work or you just missed out last minute on Flame Broiler and other places closing, Golden Bowl will most likely be open late at night. Congrats, Golden Bowl...you have earned a top/favorite spot in my taste buds when it comes to chicken bowls! I just wish there was a Golden Bowl around the city of Carson and trust me...I would love you 3 Brothers and Flame Broiler equally. Nothing wrong with some awesome alternative chicken bowl spots at all! read more
