Teriyaki J's is the perfect lunch spot! We came right when it opened and there were already plenty of customers before us. This is a good sign. :) I got the small teriyaki chicken bowl and asked for peppers on the side - you can get yellow spicy peppers or grilled + seasoned large green peppers. Both are delicious. The bowl was very filling and the teriyaki sauce was delicious! I would definitely come back for the sauce. The service was quick and friendly. Staff came by to check on our group a few times which I appreciated. We will definitely be back! read more

Teriyaki J’s - Chicken & Steak Teriyaki Plate - Japanese Near Me - Downey, California

Always amazing, delicious Chicken teriyaki sandwich. I did not know they had Pibb Extra, but it kind of tasted stale. The fries were hot and crispy. The sriracha tasted different too. I understand that there's a shortage with the company that makes it. The service is friendly and fast. They had a tv playing Super Mario Bros movie. Overall, a good experience with a small parking lot. read more

Young lady at the counter was friendly n helpful. Ordered the chicken n beef teriyaki. Chicken was burnt n tough, the beef was salty, tasted almost like it was left marinating way too long. Expected better quality of food. Tokyo grill in Carson is great spot the tikiyaki in orange is great too. No restrooms as well. $25 for a combo meal. Later on that night me and the rest of our co workers felt nauseous. read more

*** really great Japanese-inspired, HOMEMADE Teriyaki sauce on juicy chicken & fresh shrimp in Downey, CA *** ENVIRONMENT Teriyaki Js is located in the strip mall on the southeast corner of Paramount and Telegraph Boulevards. SERVICE Service with a smile in their eyes because... COVID-19 masks were on (2/26/21). Lol. The young lady who took my order brought my order outside to me. Appreciated! MY FAVORITE PART... The teriyaki sauce! NOT SO FAVORITE PART... Just the male transient camped out a few doors down that would not stop staring at me while I waited outside for my food. THE GRUB It's not on the menu exactly like this, but you can request grilled shrimp over fried shrimp for the teriyaki chicken & shrimp plate ($10.99). Everything was made to order, hot and fresh, and very delicious. I love sesame seeds & sliced green onions on top - which they'll ask if you want if you order in person. The eggrolls ($2.99) were super delish too! Cash or plastic is accepted. LITTLE YELPER'S CLUB I don't recall a kids menu. That won't deter me from order a plate for my kiddos to share in the future. PARKING There is free parking in a shared business lot. TIP They still have a Yelp check-in offer for a free drink with the purchase of any entree. OVERALL Teriyaki Js is a very welcome addition for a refreshing change in the City of Downey. They opened their doors during the COVID pandemic... if that isn't the American dream, I don't know what is! | Food: 5 | Service: 5 | Environment: 4 | Price: 5 | read more

Teriyaki J’s - Employee entrance to the kitchen. - Japanese Near Me - Downey, California

Actually really good the sauce chicken brown rice n veggies . I ordered the plate . Service was fast and girl in front sweet pretty and nice. It's a small place cute thow. Reason I gave 4 and not 5 is cause I asked for half rice half veggies and they gave me more rice and also the zucchini wasn't cut properly it was huge and barely any broccoli. Next time I'll order a salmon salad or a bowl with only veggies. The sauce was amazing ingredients fresh and wait time was fast . I definitely will return read more

My go to chicken teriyaki place. I like to call in and pick up my order, they're always super quick and have it ready for me before I get there. I usually order the chicken teriyaki or beef teriyaki and fries. Also the girl that works in front is always so nice and helpful. read more

Friendly staff and it's so close to me. My kid loved the burger plain he adds the teriyaki sauce himself. On my cheat day I had a Downey Burger. I have never been a fan of flaming hot Cheetos but it worked on this burger very tasty. I need to try the super fries with steak next time. I will return. read more

Teriyaki J’s - Downey Burger - Japanese Near Me - Downey, California

We like the teriyaki here. We usually get the teriyaki chicken burger. Super good and they give you lots of chicken. We also get the teriyaki bowls bc they are full of flavorful chicken with rice. You must try their fluffy not oily crips onion rings...soos yummy and good! Their food, flavor and portions are always consistent! The place is kind of small so a lot of orders are to go. You can still eat there though but only about 10-15 people for on tables and chairs. Place your order to go and check it out.. read more

Clean service and great food and customer service. It was good. Wpuld definitely come here again

I been coming here off and on for over a year and it never disappoints. I'm a creature of habit so I always get the same thing. Teriyaki bowl with avocado and it delicious. Customer service is always great for me. Never an issue there. It can be a little pricey but I think it's worth it. They even have a coupon on Yelp to purchase I think it's worth it! Kinda small to eat in so I usually take it to go! read more

So I was in Downey craving some Teriyaki and found this spot on Yelp! When I walked in, the place seemed clean and had a few tables available. I ordered the Steak teriyaki bowl and the food took only 5 minutes to prepare! The portion was definitely good. The steak was a little dry for my taste but the white rice was great! Will be back for more teriyaki in the future! read more

My family and I were exited to go to this place because of how the food looked and the reviews. About two hours after we ate, my son got food poisoning and so did I. He had the teriyaki chicken burger and I had a bowl. It was delicious, but clearly something was off. My youngest son didn't get sick, he had fried chicken tenders and fries. Won't be coming back. read more

Ordered the teriyaki chicken and shrimp plate. The teriyaki sauce supposedly is more like soy sauce and super runny nothing close to your typical teriyaki sauce, really disappointed and the eggrolls was taking a bite into a mouth full of grease again super disappointed thank God for the Sriracha or I would've headed back for a refund. read more

Back again and it did not disappoint! I appreciate the quality, taste and speed of this establishment! If you haven't not tried this place yet and are looking for a tasty lunch this is your spot. read more

This is a good option if you want a high quality, elevated version of Waba Grill or Flame Broiler (they also have burgers and wings). Unlike a chain fast food place, this place is fresh and flavorful, overall good quality food. The service was good, the cashier made sure we had everything we needed and it didn't take a very long time for the food to come out. It is a small place and the seating is a bit cramped so if you have a lot of people I would recommend taking your food to go. read more

Teriyaki J’s - Chicken Teriyaki Bowl and Steak Teriyaki Bowl - Japanese Near Me - Downey, California

Service is always so friendly! This place is a little bit of a drive and it's out of my way but it's worth it for great customer service like that. Food is delicious. I haven't been disappointed with anything I've tried so far. Price is a little high especially for avocado but that's expected when eating out in 2024. It's also very hot in there, I'd prefer eating outside or taking it to go read more

Food was amazing and awesome portion sizes. Really authentic with their hot sauces and salads. Ten out ten recommend

OMG: Read the Reviews.. I Agree everything is Amazing, cooked to perfection. Worth the Price. The small salad i ordered was fresh n crispy crunchy. Everything was DELICIOUS. read more

This location has a great teriyaki super fries. You can also get them with Hot Cheetos for an extra crunch. The location is good has parking but just is a little hidden. But definitely recommend to stop by and try their mouth watering options. Service was great the girl in the front was patient as I picked what to get she also assisted narrow down my options. There is places to sit and eat and times I have gone it is not busy. read more

Our usual go-to spot in Paramount has new owners and not very good anymore so we're looking for a new spot. Tried this place out and it was very ok. My wife and son enjoyed it more than I did. Way too Salty! Portions are good. Just cut back on the salt and you'll see a 5th star! read more

I really like the pork plate/bowls here. The teriyaki sauce is delicious and the service is always amazing. The steak bowl is pretty salty because the meat is already marinated in sauce so I prefer the pork. The pork isn't marinated in teriyaki sauce (only topped with the sauce) so it's much better. The reason I'm giving this place 4 stars is the price and because their brown rice is not brown rice. It tastes like white + brown rice because it's still really sticky & you can see both types of rice! If I'm getting charged for additional brown rice, I expect full brown rice.. read more
