Their short ribs are amazon! Great flavor and taste. I would not recommend the chicken I've gotten sick before when eating their chicken, hopefully just a one time thing but I'm not risking it. This is the go to place of my workplace we sometimes do big orders, and they are usually ready when we get there. If you call on your way to pick up your food it'll be ready! They do have a decent sized seating area if you want to eat in, and it is clean. read more

I hate to give this place 2 stars but I was so disappointed. This used to be the best teriyaki in town ( in my opinion) . First if all I brought my girls and no high chairs available. I get it it may be too much but even boosters chairs would be nice. Then that place was hot! Just very uncomfortable. They food was okay. We order spicy teriyaki and some pieces were hard as if they were from the day before so was the katsu chicken. We hope they can improve! read more

Their spicy teriyaki was delicious with a nice char and a good sauce. Good portion sizes. Friendly staff and clean restaurant.

I would have gave 5 star if it was less sweet on spicy chicken.. it was more sweet than spicy. Service was great! and inside was clean. read more

Sunny Teriyaki - spicy chicken - Japanese Near Me - Burien, Washington

Price is a bit higher than other teriyaki places but they restaurant is clean and offers complimentary hot egg drop soup with veggies. The portion is excellent. The staff is not super friendly but not rude either. Standard service. The main thing is that the facility is clean, hoping that the kitchen is also as clean as the store front. Would definitely come back. Cleaner than most places and super cute soup station. read more

Sunny Teriyaki - a coffee shop with a menu on the wall - Japanese Near Me - Burien, Washington

Well, the food is what you would expect at a teriyaki place, it is of a higher quality than most. A restaurant is clean, the people are friendly, the price is a reasonable, I recommend it! read more

I chose dine in, even with the pungent smell of cleaner in the air. A little less Fabuluso please. The food is what you would expect from a teriyaki chicken restaurant. Nothing special about the menu, your normal stuff. The service was good, polite, friendly and brings your food out to you,...in styrofoam. The nightly news was on the tv telling grim stories. Can I suggest something more family friendly or entertaining?! Not taking away, I am sure this place is great for take out. But dine in is a no repeat for me. read more

I've been coming here the past 4 years for their 'hot chicken' and it's always been consistently delicious. Is it just me or did they change the recipe? I will come back one more time to update my review once again whenever I'm craving for it again. read more

First step walking into this place, it feels clean and new. Also the staff is very friendly, fountain drinks are available with free refills. My favorite part: This is the only Teriyaki establishment I've ever been to that didn't upcharge you for the Spicy Teriyaki option, anywhere else they want a dollar more. So I never order it, but here it's the same price as the regular teriyaki ($11.99). The food is amazing, and the service is quick. I would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a quick bite here in the Seattle / Burien area. read more

Love this Teriyaki spot! With a large L! Clean, fast and friendly! Seriously, the lady that is at the counter is so adorable. She's kind and so hardworking. The teriyaki chicken is what I usually get. The portions are so large I usually take half home. The chicken is juicy, not over cooked. Nice portion of salad. 2 scoops of perfectly cooked sticky rice. The dressing for the salad is so bomb! I mean really! Not too vinegary, not too sweet! Just perfect! All in all I love this place and will continue to patronize and sing hi praises! read more

great food and service good location too best sauces I've tried In any Teryaki spot overall a great choice if you want good food

We ordered a few things: California roll - 5 stars, Mongolian beef - 3 stars (tasted more like bulgogi), general tso's chicken - 3 stars (reminded me of sweet & sour chicken) & yakisoba - 3 stars (it couldve used more flavor). Overall, the food wasn't bad but it wasnt memorable either. read more

Very nice teriyaki joint in a Burien strip mall... THE ROSES: Extremely clean and tidy dining room. Very pleasant proprietor. They offer complimentary egg drop soup for patrons to enjoy. Fair prices. THE THORNS: None worth mentioning. THE VERDICT: Solid little teriyaki restaurant that does what it does well. Highly recommend. read more

Tried the hot chicken based on other reviews and it did not disappoint! Definitely spicy but a really good flavor, and slight crunchiness to it. Also friendly people inside. I'll be back read more

Best Teriyaki in town. As a matter of fact best within the entire Seattle/Tacoma area.

Before your airport departure or trader joes run, this place will cure your northwest style teriyaki fix, complimentary egg flour soup for customers as well but was so full from portions i didn't get any read more

I had a very good little teriyaki place that did not last long, so I tried Sunny out and after a couple of times I think I have found one to go back to again. I have tried the Yakisoba and one of their chicken teriyaki specials and find the flavor to be good and everything tastes fresh. They have some good egg rolls as well. Even warmed up the next day, the leftovers taste great. They take a little while to get your order cooked and boxed, but worth the wait. read more

-Food is really good. Had the beef teriyaki and the sauce was really good. -Salad has good dressing. -Free hot tea and egg drop soup. -But, had a longer wait than expected for a small crowd in the restaurant. Overall, I would come back here when I'm craving Teriyaki and in this area. read more

I love Sunny's. It's one of my favorite places to pickup teriyaki. The owners are very nice and personable and the food is delicious. I often work out at the gym nearby and would call in an order for chicken teriyaki, no sauce, no salad, brown rice and extra chicken and there was never an issue with the complexity of my order. Most times I call in and places either won't do no salad or if they do they don't fill up the container with rice, but Sunny's does and there wasn't an issue with brown rice or no sauce. I just liked knowing that it tasted good, I could always get my order and the smell was mouth watering (from the gym). Really friendly staff and good food. Solid teriyaki joint. read more

This is my new teriyaki joint! The price is amazing and so is the food! I had the Spicy Katsu and Hot Chicken my first time and could not stop thinking about it. I live in Seattle and am surrounded by really small and divey Teriyaki places that (to be honest) charge too much. I was surprised by how clean Sunny Teriyaki was and that they even offered free goodies like the Egg Flower Soup! You would never find a place in Seattle that actually gives out free food (even at the fancy places!) I was also impressed by the variety of food that they offered. It was great to have a choice so every time I visit I can try something new. I can confidently say that I will be back again and will probably visit whenever I'm in the area. read more

I've been going to sunny teriyaki all of high school years and this place has never disappointed me at all. I always get the Katsu curry because it is VERY good and it's a rare thing to see in burien. I really like the atmosphere around here and it's very clean. The owners are very nice as well :) Highly recommend this place!!!! read more

Went here to grab some dinner after my haircut. Seems like they were pretty busy with a lot of to go orders. I ordered the chicken and short rib combo which was $14.99, $16 something after tax. After going home and looking at my food I must say not worth the money I should of just stayed with the cheaper meals. But taste wise it was good. read more

Best Spicy Chicken Teriyaki I have ever had!! Plus he gives you the bottles of sauce to use at your dispense while you're eating without paying for extra sauce. Definitely recommend. read more

Being going there for a long time, good quality food, fast service, nice people who owns it. Always friendly, can eat indoors or take out. They have free egg drop soup to drink while you wait. Very tasty . read more

There was a bit of confusion ordering three orders over the phone. I had to place orders for the office, so I told the nice lady over the phone that all three will be separate. I repeated my order twice just to make sure she was going to place them correctly. My co-worker then came back with our orders. The orders were correct- YAY! I ordered the spicy chicken with a 5pc order of gyoza. I had the salad first. You can't go wrong with the salad. I noticed my bag was dripping with sauce. I had to leave my take out box in the bag so I didn't make a mess on my desk. The spicy chicken was not bad, but it was drowning in sauce. The spice was not the problem since I love spicy food. The ponzu sauce seemed a bit watered down. It wasn't as dark like ponzu sauce should be, and you can taste the difference. I'm not sure if I would return. Everything was just mehh. read more

This place is great! California rolls are good. Clean dining room and friendly staff. We've liked everything we've tried. Only 4 stars because they're a little expensive. read more

They always have good food and great portion size! However tonight we ordered the shrimp tempura dinner as one off our meals. The tempura was over battered, greasy and unappetizing. I know ordering tempura Togo doesn't always spell success but whatever shrimp they use weren't even cleaned properly, with the main vein (poop track) still in place. Definitely come back for the teriyaki but surely won't be ordering tempura from here again unfortunately. read more

This is by far my favorite teriyaki joint in the south end. This is a very casual place to eat with great people and great food. Of course you expect exceptional chicken when you go get teriyaki but these guys makes exceptional tofu as well. The Spicy Tofu is my favorite. Like most teriyaki places in the south end it is very homey and local feeling and good for small groups. Though it's not expected customers always clear their own tables and you'll always get a happy goodbye when you are finished. Always a good choice. read more

My absolute favorite teriyaki is out in Renton, but Sunny Teriyaki is, hands down, the best in Burien. I'm actually not a huge fan of standard teriyaki; my litmus test for a good teriyaki joint is the yakisoba. I've found many teriyaki restaurants "cheat", adding flavor to their yakisoba in the form of teriyaki sauce. Yakisoba is not supposed to be sweet, in my opinion, so such a tactic is a big turn-off to me. While Sunny's is more heavily flavored than I prefer, the flavor is rich and not overly sweet. The prices are quite reasonable and I highly recommend their tempura mushrooms. They were still too hot to eat by the time I got them home, and it was a little torturous... but well worth the wait, with their crunchy, pillowy coating and juicy center. Mmmmmmm... fried mushrooms. read more

Sorry guys. I ordered spicy chicken and it was way overcooked until very hard and the sauce was not spicy. It was sweet. It also came with no sauce at all for the rice. I threw it away. I hate wasting food but just couldn't eat it. Maybe their other dishes are better? Off night? I don't know but I won't return. read more

I am hard to give a 5 star to anyone unless they are awesome. I am a harsh critic. I just walked in and got today's special. Chicken and gyoza for $6.25. Hot tea and egg drop soup were free and delicious. Oh my, yes it was all good. Stop in if you are hungry for teriyaki. read more

Sunny Teriyaki - Yummi - Japanese Near Me - Burien, Washington

I've been coming here regularly for a while, and it's now my number-one teriyaki spot! The people are incredibly friendly, the prices are good, and -- by far, most importantly -- the food is fantastic. All of it! The spicy beef teriyaki is my favorite (it's absolutely perfect, every single time), but I get the spicy tofu sometimes, for variety. And I love their yakisoba, too. The sauce is great, and the noodles-to-veggies-to-protein ratio is spot on. Highly recommended. read more

I'm babysitting 6 kids since their parents went to watch Kevin Hart today, and their parents brought food over and I thought it was really good. It ended up being from here and I'm quite surprised. The teriyaki was good. The chicken katsu was good. What really surprised me was their California sushi roll, wow! Not bad at all! It was SUPER fresh. And omg delicious!!! I really loved it. I highly recommend their California roll. It was a blind taste. Because afterwards I asked the kids where they got the food and they said sunny teriyaki by white caps frozen yogurt. read more

Never ever disappointed in their food! Fantastic as always! By far the best Teriyaki I have found since living in Hawaii!

Huge portions for a solid price. Everything tasted great and was cooked to order so nothing tasted as though it'd been sitting around a long time like some quick teriyaki stops do. The owner was manning the register and she so sweet. My order came out very quickly which was a huge plus because sometimes these small shop to-go orders can take forever. Loved stopping here, wish it were closer :( read more

In Burien alone there are 10 different Teriyaki places. Sunny is right in the middle. I've tried most of them. Working 5 minutes from Burien I eat lunch here a few times a week. The Chicken Teryaki isn't that bad... If thats your go to order, give this place a try. I however ordered the Chicken and Beef combo and the beef is by far the worst I've had in a long time. They don't prep the meat at all. No trimming, it was half fat. He tasted like it had been boiled. I'm not even sure how you would do that. The lady who works the counter is super sweet. A very nice lady who was very grateful and very nice. I will be back just to try some other items on the menu. Like many Teriyaki places in the neighborhood they have a full American Chinese Menu. There are some days I just feel like Bright Red Sweet and Sour Chicken. Overall Solid Three stars. Not the Worst and Not the Best. Right in the middle. Another Pro is its in the same parking lot as Trader Joes, you can place and order pick up some groceries and be back in time for your food to be finished! read more

My new favorite Teriyaki place!!!!! I am a bit of a teriyaki snob, and this place takes the place of my former favorite Best of Bento. Best of Bento is still pretty good, but a few things have changed in the last couple of years and their chicken breast bento just isn't what it used to be. So happy I discovered Sunny Teriyaki, and it's only 2 minutes from my house! No more driving to the U District to satisfy my cravings! I came into Sunny for the first time last night to pick up dinner for my husband and I. We ordered chicken breast teriyaki, a California roll, steamed white rice, a salad, and a side of steamed veggies. It took about 10 minutes from the time I placed my order until it was ready, not bad for all that! Service was friendly, even when I took my time deciding what to order. The California roll was HUGE and my hubby really liked it. The rice was soft but not super sticky, which is just the way I like it. Their teriyaki sauce was thick and the perfect blend of salty and sweet, which is awesome because I feel like too many places use something more similar to soy sauce...thin, super salty, yuck. This sauce was awesome! Best of all, the chicken breast pieces actually look like chicken breast (imagine that!), thick strips of grilled white meat chicken drizzled in sauce instead of tiny chunks of mystery chicken. Hallelujah! She even threw in a free salad. Can't wait to come back...tonight? haha read more

Overpriced. Food was meh. The egg drop soup was just broth. Extra price for brown rice and chicken breast substitution which is standard but the food was undercooked and flavorless. I thought it would be tasty like the sunny teriyaki in Auburn but not related and not even half as good. Expensive and disappointing. read more

Tried this place and got the Chicken Katsu. One of the best I've had. Good crispiness, held together and was not at all soggy. Salad was fresh and the rice was perfectly cooked. Fast too, I was in and out in about 7 minutes. Will definitely be back! read more
