Chicken teriyaki with rice and veggies.
Nicole D.

This place is a nice quick service spot if you need something fast. There's a little bit of seating inside and a few tables outside as well. It's not my favorite teriyaki spot but in a jam it'll do. We ate here mid day to save $ before heading to Disneyland. They do have decent portions so you'll definitely hit your protein macros for the day! I wish their teriyaki sauce was a little sweeter, it was on the salty side in my opinion. The walls are decorated in cute coloring pages from customers.

Teriyaki Chicken plate and Teriyaki Chicken and Steak plate
Zoie T.

I ordered the teriyaki chicken and steak plate, and my boyfriend got the teriyaki chicken plate. Both of our plates were FILLED TO THE BRIM and it was SUPER CHEAP! I barely ate 1/8 of my plate before I got full, and my boyfriend couldn't finish half. It was really good, but definitely add the teriyaki sauce. Their teriyaki sauce is super good, and coming from an asian, not too sweet. A VERY underrated spot, and I will definitely come here again! The people running the place were extremely nice too!

Chicken and beef plate
Nick C.

Came back and the food was still incredible. Ordered the chicken and beef combo which was delicious. salad with the sweet sauce is great, the portion and value is amazing. Service is also top notch- my favorite protein and rice restaurant in OC

Amazing food at an amazing price!! $12.99 for a massive plate of steak, rice, cabbage, and very crispy eggrolls Wow this is a gem!! And they were so nice too!!

Orange chicken
Kristine K.

Really good food. I got the number six.. which was a bowl of rice with orange chicken. The chicken was a little on the crunchier side, but I didn't mind that at all. The pricing was reasonable for the area. They had indoor seating, and the staff was so sweet. I'd definitely stop by again.

Spicy chicken plate
Tony J.

Bomb big portion food, with great customer service. Came here looking for a chicken plate and boy did they deliver. They are not skimpy with their meat, and to top it off it taste great. Next time I'm in the area and looking for a bowl, I'll be coming here

Excellent value.

Excellent value and great service here at Tikiyaki!! Got myself a chicken and beef plate with only veggies. Comes with an egg roll. 12.99. So much good I think I can get 3 meals out of this. Food quality is great. I wish it had some char flavor like some other places but overall still an excellent product. And excellent value. Next time I do want to try the orange chicken !

A lot of the reviews boast about the generous portions and good value. I absolutely agree. I also value that they provide the options of having brown rice without upcharging at additional fees. Eating our meal there, you can tell it was very popular with the large amount of pick-up and to-go orders. It's a mom and pop type of establishment where the people working there seem to have a relationship with the regulars and value the ideals of good customer service. Inside it's clean and well organized.

Piece of metal found in my teriyaki chicken bowl from Tikiyaki
Tyler D.

It kills me to have to write this review. I have been going to Tikiyaki for YEARS. Food has always been amazing and the staff are great. They know so many of their customers by name and are always so friendly. Their teriyaki is the best I've ever had. Unfortunately, I ate there this past Friday (12/5/2025) at around 2pm. I ordered a standard teriyaki chicken bowl to go and ate in my truck. I ate probably half the bowl before I noticed a small, sharp piece of metal in my food. It was slightly twisted and thick. I could not straighten it with my hands and it took pliers to straighten (did this to see how strong it was and what type/where it could have came from) it was so sharp that when I picked it out of my food, it cut my hand and I was bleeding. Because of the size of it, I could have easily swallowed it without ever knowing. This is a serious health issue. Due to the fact that I ate half the meal, there was fear that I could have swallowed another piece of the metal that could have been there and I ended up in the emergency room. Because of the size of the metal fragment found, the doctor said a CT scan or X-ray would most likely not find anything that may be inside me. I was told that the next few days were critical and all I could really do was monitor for symptoms. The physician said that if I did end up with symptoms, that it's very dangerous and I would likely end up needing emergency exploratory surgery to find the metal causing damage. He also informed me that this injury as well as the surgery to fix it could cause other long term issues like lack of gastric motility. Because of this, I have no other choice but to write this review, and contact the health department. For anyone eating there, please be safe and keep an eye out for anything that may be in your food. I sincerely hope that this (or worse) does not happen to anyone else.

Stephanie S.

The staff is super nice and friendly!! Very patient! The place is clean and pretty roomy for a small store! The food is delicious the bowl is actually a very filling size!!! They offer veggies too and the have a vegan option it's tofu and veggies! The orange chicken is very crispy!!

The katsu was perfectly thin and crispy, the rice was fluffy and not dry, and the macaroni salad was honestly some of the best I've ever had..completely crave-worthy. I recently had a baby, so I ordered through Grubhub for an easy meal, but I've actually been a fan of theirs since my baby shower. I special ordered malassadas in Oreo (a special flavor), guava, and mango, and they were a huge hit. They took me right back to Hawaii, and so many guests asked where I got them because they were that good. Whether you're looking for a comforting plate lunch or delicious malassadas, give this place a try, you won't regret it!

The star of the meal was the Furikake Chicken. It tasted SO GOOD. Chicken was a little dry, but the flavor makes up for it. Pork belly was good and pretty tender. Mac salad was not bad, with a strong bonito flavor, and the coleslaw was a bit bitter. Loco Moco was decent. Limeade was definitely sour, but my husband enjoyed it. We ended our meal with one mango and one coconut cream malasada. Donut was hot and fluffy, and the cream was pretty good... just VERY sweet! If I'm ever in the area, I would come back for the Garlic Furikake Chicken bowl, and to try their spam musubi!

The chicken katsu was solid, not as crispy as I would like but I did take it to go so that factors into that. The teriyaki chicken was outstanding, perfect flavor, a slight sweet char taste where it was flame kissed, I would order this again and again! Their Mac salad is different from what you get from an Aloha or Ono, not as sweet and didn't have the tang but even with that I enjoyed it and would eat it again. The only thing I would skip next time is the musubi. While it was okay in flavor the ratio of rice to spam was so far skewed it didn't seem worth it. As a whole this spot is incredibly solid and more than worthy of a 5/5! I look forward to coming back and highly recommend you check it out

Once he found out it was our first time there and that they were close to closing, he went above and beyond and accommodated us with not one, but TWO chicken sandwiches on the house for us to try.

One of the Best Hawaiian BBQ Spots I've Tried!…read more A friend finally brought me to his favorite Hawaiian BBQ spot (I guess he decided to stop gatekeeping ), and I'm so glad he did! I ordered the 2-Piece Boneless Chicken Plate with the spicy garlic sauce, and it definitely lived up to the hype. The chicken was incredibly crispy on the outside, juicy on the inside, and packed with flavor. The seasoning paired perfectly with the spicy garlic sauce, making every bite delicious. The rice was cooked perfectly, and the creamy mac salad had a nice peppery kick that complemented the meal really well.

I felt a bit snubbed that it only came with one thigh. I wish it came with two. I was not a big fan of the kalbi. I feel that they put way too much sugar in the marinade. It felt like biting into candy. Garlic butter shrimp was decent. I'm bummed this had to be my first experience. I really wanted to like this place.
