    Chicks teriyaki bowl
    Jeiny R.

    I always order a small chicken teriyaki bowl and it always hits. It's a hole in the wall spot with consistently good food. Service is good.

    Business hours

    Doesn't follow their business hours. I showed up at 8:15 on a Friday and they told me I had to take my food to go because they close at 9, so why is this posted at the restaurant and on the website?

    Ordered a large chicken bowl, easy rice, extra teriyaki sauce. Got to work, no sauces at all (was charged extra), no napkins or fork. Called and they wanted me to go back for the sauces. They said they could write my name down so I could speak with a manager. Frustrating when your on the go and try to grab a quick meal, especially with no utensils. Please check your order before you leave. BTW, there was very little initial sauce.

    Two small bowls for 9.99 they werent even bowls they were the tinniest plates and they add white rice to the top and just cover it with chicken and then the the chiken with shrimp said it was 15.99 plus tax so it says 17.99 then plus tax which is 1.89 they need to update there menu on the drive through in total i gave 40 dollars for to tinny bowls i kid you not and the the 17.99 plate honestly dont waste 40 dollars there and the teriyaki chicken taste burnt.

    I've been to this Golden Bowl Paramount location multiple times. This place has never disappointed me on any of my visits. The service is always good and the staff is very courteous. The inside of the place is set up in a fast food style. There's plenty of space to eat if you would like to get your food there. I typically order the large chicken, beef, avocado, and no onions bowl.

    Not sure of the low stars here, but everytime I've come through the drive thru I've never had a bad experience. Yes the Prices are up But the amount of food given to you is a lot. I ordered the Beef and Chicken plate with a side of egg rolls and the total came up to $22.00 and some change However my food was fresh and not dried chicken breast. I've only went in the restaurant once and it does need a HUGE upgrade if anything it's looks like a place that needs to be washed down and sanitized very well. You know how when you walk in those burger joints and there's ketchup stains on the table ,chairs look old. .and you know never have been scrubbed like TAMS.

    don't sleep. best teriyaki. chill service. great value. good price. good phat portions. drive thru option. i got the beef and chicken bowl and y'all the signature teriyaki charcoal smokiness and rice??? ugh. so good. i could eat this every day, to be honest.

    One side of chicken, side of beef and a side of gyoza.

    I typically don't test three star places but my family suggested it and sometimes I just want protein. With that being said, all the pricing in photos is outdated. I've uploaded photos of new menu. Pricing is still very fair but I opted to make rice at home and pick up an avocado at the Stater Bros next door. Best cost effective meal to share ever! The chicken and beef were tasty and not dry. Teriyaki was on the side which I appreciate because I do t use it. The meat was topped with a healthy amount of green onion. Overall, I enjoyed and would return and recommend.

    Medium Chicken bowl w a side of veggies...very satisfying

    Been coming for years...my spot for teriyaki in the area. I've tried others always keep coming back to this one...maybe it's the smell of grilled chicken from a block away. Never had any problems here. Yeah food has gone down somewhat but still good still better than other teriyaki places in Paramount. Never had any complaints w the customer service, order in drive thru they tell me my total after my order, drive up to window end of deal... My usual is a medium chicken bowl sometimes I add a side of veggies or I get the chicken/beef bowl.

    What kind of establishment charges $5 for veggies instead on rice? That would make a chicken bowl over $13. Pretty ridiculous.

I didn't really need to as I ate this whole thing in one go. I was the one who wanted to try out this spot due to the pictures of the food. Inside, it makes me feel like it was one of those homes that got renovated a little to be a restaurant. I got the BBQ R plate as it was advertised on the front door as we walked in,. The menu needs to be updated correctly to how they charge us because you can't see how much they charge you until after you pay and get the receipt. I think the guy needs to fix his wording too with asking for add-ons because he doesn't mention at all if they cost extra so BEWARE for avocado. We had to wait for about 15 minutes. Place could be cleaned more and the drive-thru process they have seem to be homemade also. Overall not bad for a good and filling lunch!!!

Well to me it's simply a burger. I will say I'm old so take all this with a grain of salt. The fries are to me at least a bit soft and oily but evidently people love them. I guess I'm more of the crunchy over cooked fry type of guy. That doesn't mean that I don't realize that I may be off in my assessment. The prices are I guess ok. Definitely more than a McDonald's burger. Also if you order it with everything on it don't expect the bun to cooperate. It gets a bit soggy and broken but what else do you expect when you lay every type of addition to it? Again I'm trying to be diplomatic in my assessment. The Coke machine also seemed to be a bit more watered down than I like it. So I guess I'd give this place a 4.5 but since there is no 4.5 I'll be generous and give a 5.

But agreed to tell the cook , to make another order of them . After 9 minutes No one said anything to me , so the new perfectly cooked fries would have sat there if I didn't get up and locate them . Also the drink I originally ordered could not be found on the drink machine which I mixed a tea with a little soda . Nevertheless , the grill salmon was nicely prepared , but the skimpy portion of rice and the kale-slaw were not enough for two us. I was feeling like I could have ordered a second dinner , as was my friend, as we drove 35 minutes to meet there from different locations. The young fellow who took our order was helpful in helping us use the touch screen. However , it was our first time at this restaurant chain , and we're both feeling hungry leaving the place .

Not only do they have many unique glizzies, but they also offer burgers.

This side dish has lime mayo, cotija cheese, chili powder, cilantro, and bacon bits. - Single (burger), which has a single patty, American cheese, and caramelized onions on a brioche bun. I really like all of their street corn items: the Dirty Esquite and the Elote Dog. The House Dog and Dirty Chili Dog are your classic flavors, and you can't go wrong with either. Next time I want to try the LA Cheesesteak Dog and the DUI Dog, which in addition to the usual Nathan's 5/1 dog, center-cut bacon, bacon bits, it also comes with pastrami, carne asada, cheddar cheese, chipotle aioli, and cilantro.
