    Pricing on 3/11/25 (still)
    Scott B.

    This was my first time back to Original J's in many years, but found the same good flavor I remember, and still at economical pricing. They were still super busy at 8:15 PM, obviously a sign of their success. We ordered the Yakisoba Chicken and the three-meat Teriyaki (beef, pork,chicken). The teriyaki sauce was delicious; the rice was moist, tender, and hot; the three meats a little over-cooked but with a bbq bark all over...(see the pics). They're still holding their pricing thru the last couple years--a sign of success. It's probably wise to order ahead, the lines are long -- a sign of success... Good job!

    Quick service and delicious food! Big enough portions to have as leftovers for the next day. Really impressed with the teriyaki chicken & egg rolls. Sauces are to die for! Always ask for extra cause you'll need it

    I wanted to give this place a fair and balanced review because overall, the experience was decent,…read morebut there were definitely some things that stood out to me that future customers should probably know before going in. If I had to summarize the restaurant in one sentence, I'd say it's a perfectly acceptable steak and sushi house with good service and fair prices, but the quality of the food didn't fully live up to the way it was presented or advertised. First, I want to give credit where it's due. The staff was genuinely friendly throughout the evening. From the moment we walked in, everyone was welcoming, attentive, and professional. Drinks were refilled consistently, food came out at a reasonable pace, and the servers checked in enough to make sure things were going well without becoming intrusive. In today's world, good customer service feels harder and harder to find, so I absolutely appreciated the effort the staff put into making the experience pleasant. The atmosphere was also about what you would expect from a modern steak and sushi restaurant. It had a nice energy to it, clean dining areas, decent lighting, and a casual upscale vibe that worked well for a dinner out. Pricing was another positive. Compared to many steak houses today, the menu prices felt relatively reasonable. Nothing seemed outrageously overpriced, especially considering they also offer sushi and a broader menu than a traditional steakhouse. If you are looking for a place that won't completely destroy your wallet for a night out, this place lands somewhere in the middle ground. Not cheap, but not painfully expensive either. That said, the biggest issue for me was the steak itself. I ordered what was advertised as a filet, and honestly, I left questioning whether it truly was filet mignon. Anyone who regularly eats filet knows it is typically one of the leanest and most tender cuts of beef available. The steak I received was surprisingly fatty, with a texture and appearance that felt much more like a lower-grade sirloin or another less expensive cut. I understand that marbling can vary, and I'm not expecting perfection every single time, but this felt noticeably off from what should reasonably be expected when ordering a filet. To be clear, the steak was not terrible. It was edible, cooked reasonably close to the requested temperature, and had decent flavor overall. But when a restaurant advertises a premium cut of beef, customers naturally expect that cut to match the description. That disconnect between expectation and reality was the biggest disappointment of the night for me. It honestly felt more like a steakhouse serving "good enough" versions of premium items rather than truly delivering premium quality. The sushi was fine, though nothing especially memorable. Fresh enough, decent presentation, and about what you would expect from a restaurant trying to balance both steakhouse and sushi menus under one roof. No major complaints there, but also nothing that would specifically make me return for the sushi alone. At the end of the day, this place falls into the category of "solid but forgettable." If you go in expecting a casual steak and sushi dinner with decent service and fair pricing, you will probably leave satisfied enough. But if you are specifically going for a high-end steak experience or expecting true steakhouse-quality filet mignon, you may end up disappointed like I was. Would I come back? Maybe, but I'd probably try something different on the menu next time instead of ordering the filet again.

The pot stickers are not made in house, as Won Tons usually are, they are a food service product, boiled in chicken stock with other vegetable trimmings added. My soup was scalding hot--had to rest 10 minutes before it was palatable. There was no evidence of salt and pepper in the soup and none on the table. (It's interesting to note that Wok n Roll is a franchise that touts "quick-cooked" fast foods--quick cooking Won Ton Soup is exactly what was wrong with mine!--should be steeped over time.) Other than that, they forgot the diced green onion which is fundamental to Won Ton Soup. Wok n Roll boasts 20+ stores over five countries (principally Caribbean Islands). Their Madison Avenue advertising promotes a big image, but this Wenatchee store is clearly a low budget operation. The furniture is very uncomfortable-- wooden seats on metal frames, and a cost-cutting approach to food preparation and presentation. If they're doing something right, it wasn't evident on this trip. Again, see the pics!

The pork eggs were thrown in the trash after we spit out the bite we took we could tell by the horrible taste they were fried in rancid old oil. We ordered the sesame chicken it came with no seasoning or sesame flavor once so ever it too was cold. Crab Rangoon's were basically wonton with burned edges nothing in them . Lastly, the walnut shrimp was the best out of all of them. Still cold but although the sauce was strange it looked odd so we stopped eating it for fear of sickness. We fear that we might get sick by the little bit we ate before we trashed it.

The portion size is way more than I can eat in one sitting, and the flavor is hot, fresh and crispy! It comes with macaroni salad and sautéed vegetables. But they have traded the macaroni salad for french fries and still, the french fries alone are a double order! But the fish itself is the silver bullet in this dish, it truly is extraordinary. Sherrie agrees with me, but she loves the Short Rib dinner, so that's what she had tonight. Take a look at my meal tonight, then look at how much was left over after I was done. Like I said, Tiki is still 5-Stars !

No pineapple sauces or pineapple dishes, chicken was processed and breaded and refried to super hard to eat and the sauce they give you isn't authentic either. Then on top of all that they gave me White rice and I hate white rice and wanted fried rice brown. If you say your serving Hawaiian then be that, but to have me tell them to their faces in May 19 2026 at about 145 pm that I have never ate there and if their food was great I'd revisit..the guy taking the order said they have the best potion . What a strange statement from a good server. The experience was a total loss of money and not authentic fresh Hawaiian food How lame do not waste your money on rice the is hard and dry and chicken that is processed and breaded which is cooked in old grease. Will never eat their again
