Spicy Crispy Chicken
Annika G.

Teriyaki Don has been a staple in my family for years, it's a Fresno classic. The portions of the food have always been good, the staff is friendly, the store is clean, and the prices are great. I love going on weekends because they have their spicy crispy chicken on special, and you really can't beat the price for how much you get. I typically take 2 days to finish the bowl! I also appreciate that you can order the spice on the side and ranch on the side when ordering takeout. The staff themselves are always attentive and helpful, and service is incredibly fast. I typically order and it's ready within 10-15 minutes. Not to mention the teriyaki sauce is superb. The crispy chicken has come out overcooked or randomly soggy on the bottom sometimes but it's rare. Love this place!

Chicken Yaki Udon with a small side salad. The dressing here was pretty good.
Cynthia W.

It was solid. We got a few udon soups, and I got a yaki udon with chicken. This is apropos of nothing, but the chicken is REALLY good with kimchi (that we got separately at a market). Otherwise, pretty saucy, with an overabundance of green onion. They don't offer a vegetable tempura udon, which is a weird thing to leave off an offering of udon, so they charged us for a plain udon and a side of veggie tempura. The guy at the front was coughing quite a bit, with no mask, so... I was a little bit . Like, I totally get if you have to work, just....maybe put on a mask? Size portions are modest.

It took me way to long to give this place a try, please don't make the same mistake i did. Because you are only delaying your satisfaction from some of the best crispy chicken you'll find!!!! My word the portions are huge, the chicken is both crispy and juicy, the rice balances everything out and the sauce on the side salad!!!! Now that sauce made eating vegetables so easy! Considering i ordered on DoorDash my expectations were not high at all, but i was pleasantly surprised. Another thing that is amazing is that it is rather affordable and with so many menu options you can easily add this to your lunch or dinner rotation! Ill have to go in person soon to get a feel for the environment, and pick up some more food!

Spicy Crispy Chicken Salad ~ so good!
Nancy T.

Always a hometown fav!! Had the Spicy Crispy Chicken salad and it was scrumptious! A huge salad with a generous portion of their spicy crispy chicken was exactly what I needed. The huge container of dressing, really made the entire dish. Always the best service each time I've visited & they are always busy. Can't wait to get back there ~ so good!!

Shrimp Tempura Roll
Tong w.

Very good sushi. The shrimp and cucumber were delicious together. Ordered online pickup and everything was ready on time. The price is great. But the reason lost one star is the sushi rice didn't have vinegar flavor, normal taste, but it's still good for the price. I really like the place smells very clean and nice when you walk in. There is no oily or strange smell, feels very comfortable. I would back again

Anyone else find rat poop in their food?

California Roll

If I could do half stars I would have rated everything 3.5 stars but I rounded up for the delicious food. When you first walk in you receive a greeting and the customer service is fine. We tried the Chicken Teriyaki Don and California Roll. The California Roll was delicious and freshly packed with so much rice and filling. Sometimes sushi is so thin you are left hungrier than before, that is not an issue over here. The Chicken Teriyaki Don plate was very filling and full of delicious flavor, only down side is a few of my chicken pieces were overcooked and it was straight dry and hardened. Thankfully, it was only a few bites that were over charred and I was still able to enjoy everything. The chicken is on a bed of rice and the side salad is good with what I'm assuming may be a sesame dressing. The cup of teriyaki sauce that it comes with is plenty for both the chicken and rice. The teriyaki sauce is a thinner sweet umami flavor which I enjoyed. The establishment itself is not the cleanest and looks a bit outdated, worn, and there seems to be grime stuck on the floor and trash around the soda fountain. Our service was quick during closing time. I wouldn't feel comfortable sitting down and eating in the establishment but I would definitely recommend take-out services.

The spicy crispy chicken combo plate.
Sheila K.

It's been a verrrry long time since I've been back here... why? No particular reason other than I literally forget about them until I drive pass their restaurant and I'm like-- "Ooh, Teriyaki Don!" But each time, I keep driving. Not this time... we finally stopped & dined in. It looks like how I remember it, though I remember more tables to sit at? I could be wrong. There were like 3 tables and 3 booths? One booth designated for their break time (that we didn't notice right off the bat when we sat down-- it was about that time... so we moved). They did say it was okay to sit there but we sat elsewhere anyways, just in case. This is definitely not an aesthetic spot, but I'd consider this more a take-out restaurant with the option of dining in, if you wanted to. Once upon a time... we were able to go up to the counter and grab as many carrot sticks and dressing as we wanted-- that's no longer a thing. Shame. But I understand... they knew what could make them more money and they capitalized on it! Now, you have to buy the extra dressing (delicious, btw) but bummer for my wallet. I was trying to get him to order the Salmon (cause I wanted that too) but I also really wanted the spicy, crispy chicken ... he did too. Now that I think about it, I should've just ordered the Salmon and ate off his chicken but whatever-- too late now lol. Chicken isn't always my first choice when I eat out, but because this is what I was introduced to my first time-- I stuck with it. Also, it's not spicy (for me) but I like the extra flavor/kick it adds. One plate is definitely enough to share, but the leftovers were just as good a few hours down the line. We both got a combo, which comes with the chicken&rice, 2 pot stickers (I didn't care for these), salad, and a drink. You get sauce for the pot stickers and teriyaki sauce with the chicken, and of course dressing on the salad... but not enough. I spent 40ish on both plates plus an additional 10 before we left-- had to get some of that dressing to go! It's a hefty price, but I've spent far more on far less. The portions are great, and the food is good. Maybe next time I'll try their beef because I'm surprised I haven't yet. Staff was friendly and they worked fast. There were only a couple people ahead of us in line to get our order taken... and we didn't wait too long for our food either. Also, I like that they had the cool drink machine with the variety to choose from... everywhere should have this, honestly. However, I didn't like that they don't leave napkins out for us to be able to grab and use though... because each time we refilled, our hands got wet/sticky. Reconsider that please. All in all, they didn't let me down. I was starving and my hunger was satisfied.

Beef Teriyaki Don, "medium rare"
Jay S.

I'm sorry but I just don't understand the hype this place has. I have nothing against the business, they have really nice, really friendly, really helpful customer service and that in itself would have kept me coming back but their food is just not it. We ordered a few things to try. The meat was dry and overcooked, their salad is basically just spinach and their seafood (shrimp & imitation crab) tasted old. The best thing on my plate was the steamed rice. The establishment is located at the end of a small shopping mall, it's clean and there's seating inside and out. Menu is easy to read and understand and service is fast.

Daily special: Spicy Crispy Chicken
Lena S.

I haven't had this in agessss. Before covid. It's not really near me but I decided to try it again. I got their daily special, which was the crispy spicy chicken. It was $9 came with breaded chicken, rice, salad. It wasn't spicy, at all. I see they added chili but the chili wasn't spicy. Chicken itself didn't have flavor but the teriyaki sauce added a nice touch of sweet and salty. Rice was nicely cooked. Salad was okay, had a white sauce on it, a mayo based dressing. (4/5) Shrimp tempura roll, honestly this could've been a skip for me. It needed sauce or something extra. The sushi was lacking. It was dryyy. It was a big roll. (2/5) Veggie tempura: crispy, light, veggies were fully cooked. They fried bell peppers, I've never seen anywhere include bell peppers. Not a fan of that, but I'm sure someone else will. (4/5) Honestly it's what I remembered from before, needless to say they're consistent. They did a bit of remodeling, not as many tables as before. Overall it's 3.5 star. It's good but not amazing. Food here is a great deal. I recommend trying it if you're searching for a quick and cheap meal.

Eel & Avocado Roll do

No avocado in this roll. Way too much rice. They basically rolled eel in rice. Disgusting

One word of advice: if you're planning to join the waitlist, I recommend calling ahead for a more accurate wait time. The website initially showed no one ahead of us, but after joining the waitlist it indicated several parties were waiting. When we arrived, we were told the wait would be about 45 minutes, which wasn't ideal with a couple of hungry kids. Thankfully, we were seated within about 10 minutes. Our server, Patrick, was fantastic! He provided excellent customer service, took the time to explain the sushi rolls, helped us navigate the kids' menu, and was attentive throughout our meal. Patrick, thank you for helping make my mom's birthday dinner so memorable. Khasey was our chef, and the food was absolutely delicious. He made sure we had every sauce we asked for. The teppanyaki experience for the children was engaging and fun. To top it off, the staff brought out a cute birthday dessert and sang a birthday tune for my mom, which made the celebration even more special. The location is another huge plus. It's situated in a great area near Fresno State with plenty to do before or after dinner, including ice cream shops, boba spots, VR gaming, and movie theaters. Overall, we had a great experience and can't wait to come back!

A lot comes to mind when you hear the name Fresno. Raisins, Agriculture, Bridge to nowhere, but…read moreSushi is not one of them. So when my son asked us to meet him, his lovely wife and our 3 granddaughters for dinner on a recent visit I didn't have my hopes up. Namikaze is a nice quiet restaurant that from its decor could easily be an Italian, French or American restaurant. Just change the paintings on the wall. The Menu is pretty expansive. A full menu of Sushi, noodles, gyoza and rolls made it difficult to choose but eventually we narrowed it down. I always try the Unagi (eel) at any sushi restaurant. It is my barometer for how good everything else will probably be. It was good. I also ordered the Kimono Roll while my wife had Shogun roll. We also tried the Chicken Gyoza. Everything was terrific. Excellent taste and fresh. Next time someone asks me about Fresno I'll say "Fresno! They have good sushi there". Definitely Recommended.

I was immediate greeted by the two Sushi chefs behind the counter as I walked in. Not long after, the host greeted me and handed me a menu for me to select my order to go. I considered a poke bowl, however, their sauces were pretty standard. So instead I opted for their seaweed salad that came with a number of protein including tuna, edamame, shrimp, avocado, and masago. It was $19, so it wasn't necessarily inexpensive, however I figured a poke bowl with a couple proteins would run me right about there as well. The sushi chef got right away to work preparing my meal and I was in and out within 5 minutes. When I got home, I opened up my box and was a little underwhelmed with the presentation. The protein is cut up into small pieces and mixed in with the seaweed salad. In addition it is not pure seaweed as it is also mixed in with a bunch of other greens such as sprouts. So while the presentation was not what I was expecting, I was pleasantly surprised that I really enjoyed the flavors and textures. I will definitely order this again.

My family love eating here and it is our go to place when craving sushi. A typical order would be:…read moreEZ Roll, Cali Roll, Spicy Tuna Hand Roll, Magic Dragon Roll and 2-3 spicy mayos on the side. Our to-go order usually totals $80 with tip. Pros: Sushi is pretty fresh for Fresno. Portions are good. Decent prices. Bento boxes are not bad. Friendly staff. They answer their phone for takeout orders even when super busy. Orders usually take 20-30 min to be ready. Cons: They skimp on the spicy mayo so you have to tell them to fill it all the way up since it's $1 each. Use to be $0.25 each. Don't recommend the fried rice (bland); maybe try getting a few tips from teppan chefs ;) Tried other places and this is our go to place for sushi.

Edamame (you just can't miss with this! It comes coated in like a nice sauce, reminds me of a seafood boil sauce). 2. Baked Mussel- if you're a mussel fan like myself, this is pretty good. 3. Jalapeño bomb: it's a stuff jalapeño, with some umami flavor, little to no spice FYI. 4. Shrimp tempura was okay. Maybe if it had more crunch to it, and the veggies on the inside felt really really soft. I got to try 2 main entrees: I liked the sashimi way more than the special. The special is aesthetically super pleasing and well crafted. It's hard for me to beat the tastiness and rich flavors of the sashimi! Service was sweet and kind. We stayed past 9:30 and never felt rushed. Good spot, would come back, but maybe I wouldn't get the special roll again.
