Was in the area working. Coworker wanted teriyaki. He got the chicken plate and I got a hamburger. I wasn't too hungry and didn't want to spend money. I couldn't box up the leftovers if I had any and our trucks don't have coolers or fridge. Hamburger was good. Loved the sauce that was in it. $6+ for one burger. SMH. Plenty of parking. Lots of people coming for lunch! Good sign for a great place! I will be back when I'm more hungry! read more

The Spot Teriyaki - Japanese Near Me - Covina, California

Ordered chicken teriyaki plate with vegetables with side of extra teriyaki sauce, not tasty at all. Not even the sauce was good. We also ordered the rib plate and it wasn't ribs! Sorry, but we won't be back. read more

The Spot Teriyaki (Covina) is a small, no-frills spot with a surprisingly wide menu--everything from teriyaki plates and chicken bowls to ribs and even burgers. The food itself is good and satisfying, especially if you're craving something quick and filling. Portions are decent, but I will say the pricing leans a bit high for what's essentially fast-casual. I paid about $27 for a bowl with avocado and extra meat, and honestly, I couldn't really tell there was extra meat, so that add-on didn't feel worth it. Service at the counter was friendly and welcoming, which I appreciated. The dining area could definitely use a bit more attention--a little tidying up would go a long way in making the space feel more inviting. Also worth noting: they charge a fee for credit card use, so just be aware of that. Overall: Good food and friendly service, but slightly overpriced for what you get. Solid if you're in the area, but with a few improvements, it could be much better. read more

Cashier was welcoming! I enjoyed their teriyaki chicken bowl, it was packed well and with the sauces it was delicious

the pricing is ridiculous. I paid 22$ for a teriyaki beef plate with avocado and this is how my plate looked. The salad wasn't even properly chopped And the avocado was rotten! Highly disappointed and never coming back. It was a waste of money and time. read more

The Large Teriyaki Chicken Bowl ($11.75) is tender, fresh, and filling. Each bite is filled with savory chicken coated lightly in teriyaki sauce. I arrived at The Spot on Friday (near 5:30pm). The order needed 6 minutes. The staff is welcoming and helpful. However, I recommend ordering to-go. The location is loud (from the knives hitting cutting boards). Also, the plaza is dingy; there's an elderly man with a shopping cart near the entrance. I recommend cash since The Spot charges an additional 75 cents for card. Overall, The Spot serves delicious teriyaki. The fresh ingredients, large portions, and savory flavors make this spot shine. I happily recommend. 4.5/5 read more

I can not believe I have forgotten to review The Spot. It is amazing and dare I say its better than that Covina staple, Golden Bowl, by a mile! You walk in this tiny place and counter service is a lovely smiling person. Picture menu of everything they have. I ordered the small beef bowl with avocado. Amazing, plenty for me, great price. You have ALL the usual options: white or brown rice, steamed veg, extra meat, avocado. I call mine in and pick t up to go- easy peasy. You can also eat in, but the shopping center its in isn't the best- maintained on the outside. Inside is fine. So go! You won't be disappointed! read more

I found a bug in one of the bowls I ordered it looked like a sesame seed at first, but then it started to move. Completely disgusting and unacceptable. I had ordered three bowls, and while the other two were plain, only one had the issue. When I called to request a refund, they refused to handle it over the phone and insisted I bring the food back in person. That's not just poor customer service it's insensitive and inconvenient, especially after *they* served me contaminated food. Expecting a customer to return something that already contains a bug just to get a refund is unreasonable. I'm shocked by how they handled the situation. This experience has definitely made me rethink ever ordering from here again. read more

No restrooms no miso soup your better off going to ANB teriyaki grill don't waste your time it's dirty and tiny

Talk about hole in the wall! I would've never thought a little spot in a plaza that's tucked away in a corner can deliver so much flavor! We ordered take out and the lady behind the counter seemed busy - ringing us up and answering the phone at the same time. She was on the phone and then proceeded to ask us if we wanted anything else, like we shouldn't have assumed she was asking whoever she was talking to on the phone. It would've been nice if she would've just taken a second to take the phone order or ringing us up, not at the same time but that's just me. We ordered 4 chicken and beef teriyaki plates and the total came out to around $70. So it is a bit pricey but we definitely got a lot of food. The bags were heavy! The chicken and beef were both cooked well. The chicken didn't feel dry and the beef had a nice char to it. The teriyaki sauce was a smidge on the saltier side but I thought it was deliciousssss. I didn't even use the extra sauce that came with it because what they served on the plate was enough! The side salad that came with it could use a lot of help though. The dressing tasted very processed? Like something was just kind of off about it. It made the cucumbers taste like pickles.. idk hahahah I was quite puzzled. If you try it, you let me know if it's just me! read more

For those who are familiar with San Gabriel valley, this is like B-man's but better!! Their chicken bowl is my go to and I usually ask for light sauce and it's perfect for my taste. Make sure to ask for the jalapeños and yellow peppers if you like spicy. It compliments the meal so well! The restaurant is small and has a couple of table seats but more for smaller parties up to 4 people. read more

The food is always delicious and plentiful. I have never had a bad meal here, whether I take out or eat there. The service is always quick and nice. And the place is always very clean. Its a little hot inside but thats okay. read more

Lil hole in the wall that my wife had tried before. We got 2 beef and chicken plates and a small drink that came out to $38 DOLLARS!!!! Thats insane!!! The door was closed and the restaurant was stuffy as hell. Someone left the door open and then a breeze came in which cooled it down inside but they quickly shut the door. I do not recommend eating there as it was too stuffy for my liking. Service was fine but the food was missing something. It didn't taste bad but I wouldnt necessarily be telling all my friends about it. It is what it is read more

I am so thankful that my sister in law put me on to this place. My order was delicious! I got a large bowl with half chicken and beef. The chicken was very tender and well seasoned as was the beef. The rice was perfectly cooked. The whole dish was perfectly sauced. The avocado was also very fresh and perfectly ripe. The restaurant itself is on the small side and kind of loud due to the open kitchen, but it didn't really bother me. You can tell that they are busy as there was a steady stream of people coming in and plenty of phone orders, but food was prepared fast. I highly recommend! read more

Love this place !! One of my top 5 teriyaki bowls place to go to. I been coming here for years and never been disappointed came today and forgot to take a pic of my delicious food. I always call in and they are pretty fast by the time I get there my food is ready. They have good food and the avocado added makes the bowl even better!! I can't go without it!! It's small inside but very clean and have tables to sit. They have a small, medium, and large for their bowls. A small is usually good or medium will fill you up. I always come when I get my lashes done since it's down the street. This is for sure the best teriyaki chicken bowl in Azusa. I highly recommend!! read more

decent spot if you're craving a quick, filling meal. The food itself is pretty straightforward and doesn't have a ton of flavor on its own, but the teriyaki sauce really saves the day--it's sweet, savory, and adds that extra punch to the dish. If you're someone who loves saucy meals, you'll probably enjoy this place. The portions are huge and priced very reasonably, making it a great value. In fact, one order could easily be split between two people, which is a nice bonus. The service is friendly and efficient, and the staff is always nice, even though it's a small, no-frills kind of place inside. a good option if you're looking for a simple, saucy meal that won't break the bank. Just don't expect anything too fancy! read more

The Spot is a go-to for a clean and simple teriyaki bowl meal. There are a couple of options but the typical go-to is the chicken chop bowl with veggies. It's typically the perfect amount to keep me full and satisfied. Request for a salted jalapeño if you like an extra kick with your meal! The joint itself is relatively small with only a couple of tables, and has a typical burger joint feel to it. From a service perspective, I hate to say it- but the staff always seems to have a tinge of attitude like they are too uppity to be bothered with an additional request or question. The place is busy and they are serving folks non-stop but I've never felt "good" about the service. read more

I was in the mood for a bowl, so I searched Yelp to try something new. I found the restaurant and made my way. The inside of the restaurant is spacious. There's plenty of tables. The menu is standard. They offer bowls, burgers, and salads. I opted for a chicken and beef plate. The portions were huge. I was able to make 3 meals out of one single bowl. I usually don't like teriyaki sauce, but I tried the bowl with teriyaki sauce. It was good and not too sweet. I love that they add a good amount of avocado for a little over two dollars.This is definitely a good place to get lunch or dinner to enjoy something healthy and filling. read more

We didn't eat there after all because they have advertised Teriyaki burger $5.95 we got 2 and the total came close to $20 around $17 ... With taxes I'd assume it would be around $12 .. totally okay with that but close to $20 was questionable.. so I ask the lady with lots of piercings in her ear why so much and she said Chicken and Beef difference, so I look at menu again because I never seen a price difference noted NOR does it specify TERIYAKI CHICKEN BURGER it just says *chicken burger* and the beef burger says *Teriyaki burger* not BEEF TERIYAKI , they're trying to be sneaky and false advertise to make money off of people without even explaining where that price increase comes from read more

I've been coming here for about five years, and I always enjoy getting the beef & chicken combo plate. The portion is generous--perfect for sharing or just right if you're really hungry.

The Spot Teriyaki - Got charged for credit card even when I paid with cash. - Japanese Near Me - Covina, California

I recall a time and place where this place was awesome. I have not been here in a while and ordered a couple of burgers for my son and me. The patties literally tasted like they season it with lighter fluid even though they use a gas grill. The other items they use, like the tomato, lettuce, pickles, spread, bread are ok, but do not do enough to eliminate the lighter fluid taste. Not sure what they season it with but the taste is not good. I was disappointed to say the least. The fries were over fried, crunchy yes, but cooked/fried too long. Not sure I will be coming back at least not for the burgers, not too sure if their beef or chicken bowls will be good since they cook them over the same gas grill. read more

Always passed by and was curious because the food smells really good walking by. Tried their combo beef and chicken with rice and avocado and has our go too ever since when we are craving teriyaki bowls! read more

Make sure to check your order before leaving!! My beef and chicken combo plate ($13.50) only came with beef. I called them about the discrepancy and they told me they can offer me a discount on my next order, taking my name and number down. When I came back 2 weeks later, they wouldn't honor the discount, saying that the receipt that would've had my info is not there so they couldn't do anything about it. (I never came back after that.) The value here is not the combo plate, as it's $2.49 more to add a bit of salad spring mix than the large only plate with 2 meats. If you're good with one meat, their bowls come in S, M or L. Otherwise, order the two proteins combination you want in the large only size ($13.50). Avocado is an extra $2.30 and brown rice is an extra 50 cents. If you substitute vegetables for rice, it's an extra $4. They're ask you if you want brown or white rice or avocado with every bowl / plate order. There's some seating inside, 7 tables in all. Most people take their orders to go. They take credit cards, but not American Express or Discover. Plenty of parking in the plaza. We've only ordered to-go. Got the beef and chicken combo plate that only came with beef, a large chicken bowl ($11.75), and large beef bowl ($12.75). We also picked up some extra large bowls for family members. The food is good, but can get a little heavy with the teriyaki sauces. We had leftovers for the next day, but the rice got hard quickly and the meat as well, so I recommend to finish what you can. read more

All I can say is YUM! I used to work in Anaheim, and there was this awesome teriyaki chicken bowl place I totally loved. Now that I no longer work there, I miss it so much. I needed another go to teriyaki chicken place and wasn't looking for a place like Yoshinoya. So here I am, on a search for TC near home. I did a search on Yelp and Google, and TST seemed to have some good reviews. The photos I saw showed generous portions for a great price. So I paid a little visit to this joint, which was actually in the same shopping center as Yoshinoya. Don't get me wrong, the Y has great food too. But TST had a much better TC bowl! Service was awesome! The cashier showed me the sizes when I asked. They offered avocado, but I kindly declined. And they made sure to let me know it was topped with sesame and green onions, and I excitedly replied "no other way I'd have it!" It didn't take more than 5 minutes until I was scooping the first heaping bite into my mouth. The chicken was cooked to perfection. The rice cooked perfect, and you know us Asians want perfectly cooked rice. I was so glad they gave me a squeeze bottle of teriyaki sauce, because after the first bite, I doused the chicken with it! Light, a bit salty, and that sweetness we all love in a teriyaki sauce. For those trying to cut back on carbs, make sure you don't devour each bite of chicken with a heaping scoop of rice. There's enough rice to feed an army. Not really, but it's a sizable portion. I got a large bowl, and I ate the whole thing. Granted I just came from depositing some blood at the lab for a test, which meant I had to fast for 12 hours, I was really hungry. 5 stars TST! I'll be back again when I'm craving TC again. But maybe next time, I won't eat as much rice. The dining area was a fairly good size. It wasn't crowded at all. This was post lunch, around 2 pm. Maybe 5 tables occupied out of 10. This is a guess, I didn't actually count. Lol. So if you're craving a teriyaki chicken bowl, I highly recommend this place! read more
