Review 72/365 Day Challenge This is one of my go to when we're wanting Yoshinoya. Came around a little past 8.to order dinner to go for the dinner. My kids were craving for it. What I ordered ~ Gyudon Beef was really good. Beef was marinated well and tender. ~ Gyudon Beef Bowl® with Veggies love the veggies in the bowls. ~Shrimp tempura is crunchy yummy Associate Edwin took my order and he was so nice and patience. Answering all of my questions during my food ordering process, Restaurant is big spacious with lots of indoor seatings booth like. Located in the same plaza as Michael's along near Wendy's fast food chain. With a good amount of parking.

Not sure why, but I recently found myself back at Yoshinoya after taking a break at the Tustin location. Yoshinoya used to be a regular stop during my college days for quick, affordable, and solid rice bowls. This Tustin location is clean with plenty of seatings. If you park in front spaces, then do watch out for cars coming around the corner from Del Taco -- the driver tends to speed through that corner. The nice young lady greeted me as I entered and efficiently took my order. On this recent visit, one thing I noticed immediately, I'm not sure when they switched up the bowls, but they're definitely smaller now. Shrinkflation is real. :( Aside from the smaller bowl portions, I still enjoy my beef bowl (but hold the beef juice). The rice was same dense & fluffy, the grilled onions were just right--not too many, not too few, add some veggies to my favorite beef bowl. The beef slices are still the same thinness /same cut and texture but ratio of beef dropped drastically. You'll have more rice leftover now. Regardless, I still find myself enjoying and wanting another beef bowl soon. Maybe will try the selection of crafted sweet ice teas with boba. read more

This place is disgusting. I found a hair in my food and they wouldn't let me get a refund. They offered a replacement but they don't understand that I was already disgusted by their food. Alma was not trying to help me and was rude, denying that she can barely see the hair. Corporate office is even worse, AI voice telling me they gonna get back to me in 48 hours, what a joke. read more

Yoshinoya - Japanese Near Me - Orange, California

Me and my mom always come here for a quick meal, and Yoshinoya never disappoints! The clam chowder is amazingly rich and flavorful, the edamame is always fresh and perfectly seasoned, and the chicken teriyaki is absolutely delicious, tender, juicy, and perfectly glazed. And the pink lemonade tastes so fresh every single time. Fast, tasty, and consistently great. Highly recommended! read more

No change at 11:07 right before lunch time is insane. Not coming back to this location. Really bad management.

Alma was such a breath of fresh air, so welcoming, thorough, and very attentive to not only me but to every customer that stepped in the store while I was waiting for my order. Her cook was quick and worked smoothly with her. It was a pleasure to witness. She's a strong worker! Food was super fresh too and also let me just say it was one of the cleanest fast food places I've been to. Most definitely will be coming back. read more

I came here for lunch on a Sunday with my daughter. I was helped by an exceptional employee named Alma. Her customer service was on point. She helped my daughter decide between the delicious beef & teriyaki chicken bowl. Tbh it was something as small as this the way she paid attention to us and went out of her way that I thought I'd write a review which I hardly do. Customer service like this is hard to come by these days. read more

I've been coming to Yoshinoya locations since 1993-1994. Been to over 50+ locations, just got back from Japan 3 weeks ago and had more Yoshinoya. This is my ideal comfort food for the weather coast. Some people prefer burgers, I love gyudon. Just wanted to say briefly that the general manager here and staff cooking in the back, were wonderful. GM had a sweet motherly personality, excited to work at the start of her shift (it was 10:10am) and we talked briefly about how long she's worked for the company and how much she enjoys the food, almost as much as myself. Service was 10/10. Food is the same delicious comfort food. It's a little different than in Japan, but it's still good. Like I said, I prefer this over burgers and fries. This may not be for everyone, but it's quick and tasty, good value for what you get. Gyudon (beef) could be a bit fatty for some people, but it's where the flavor is. Either you will like eating here or you don't. Give this place a try, it deserves at least 4+ stars, but since I'm biased and the staff was awesome, I'm giving it a 5. My closer location in Fullerton closed and is being rebuilt to a smaller location, but not once was the service as good as this location. This might be my new "home" location for Yoshinoya. Small update : picture attached of the food. Portion as expected, food looks and taste yummy. read more

Alma the general manager has always given me the best service and the freshest food. This is the only location worth trying. I've been a loyal customer here for many years. Thank you Alma for the many wonderful years working at this location. read more

Freddy is an outstanding employee! I drive 11 miles to come to this location passing numerous other Yoshinoya locations along the way.

I rarely give out one star to a business unless it's really bad. Ordered 3 combos with all beef, one order of comb with beef and chicken and 2 clam chowders for to-go. Got home, the containers seem smaller than before (shrinkflation, that's okay). Open the box, all four boxes were mostly rice, a thin layer of meat were barely covered the rice (now I felt really being cheated). The clam chowder, it tasted really watery and sour ( not sure if it is normal or gone bad, to be safe, I have to throw them in the trash). I've been eating Yoshinoya now and then since 1980s, but Never had this kind of bad experience before. Seems like their food quality really gone downhill. The cashier was really nice, so the one star was for the service. read more

I love this yoshinya, food is always fresh the store is clean and the employees are very respectful

Never do reviews but thought I might share my experience of the lady who handed me my order as far as helping me as a customer she was good but how she treated her colleague/employee is what pissed me off she asked the college why aren't you putting names on the orders and from the looks of it she didn't like his response and decided to mock him in the most ugliest way possible in front of all the customers that were there felt so bad for the guy who looked to be in training. read more

On a late evening after a gym session I was craving flame broiler. Unfortunately they closed at 9pm.... Luckily this place is open until 10pm! This is my first time at this location so didn't know what to expect. I liked that their bowls had an udon noodle option for a base along with the regular rice and veggies. I got the teriyaki ribeye steak bowl combo and enjoyed it. I thought it was good, but it was lacking something... can't put my finger on it. I also got the gyoza on the side. This was okay too, lacking some flavor. The tempura orange chicken could have used more sauce, but it was crispy. I asked if they had any house made sauces for the bowls and they just had soy and siracha packets. So that was a downer too. Maybe my experience would be better not at the tail end of the night? However, I still prefer flame broiler. BUT, for $22 the price wasn't too shabby. (2 bowls, one Gyoza and soda) I will say customer service was great and it was very clean. read more

My partner and I got some Yoshinoya coupons in the mail, and I saw that they had karaage (Tokyo Fried Chicken) so I wanted to try it. This location is very clean and the service was quick. We were helped by a very nice and patient male cashier. We ended up ordering 2 large bowls: 1 with the gyudon beef and tokyo fried chicken, and the other with teriyaki chicken and habanero chicken. Both were with white rice and veggies. The coupon made it so that we paid around $15 for both. Regarding the food itself, they pack a lot of rice. They basically fill the takeout box with rice and then they put the meat and veggies on top of the rice. I literally got 5 pieces of chicken lol and the beef was a little dry. Their tokyo fried chicken tasted EXACTLY like karaage tho. Very well seasoned so I would highly recommend trying it! I wouldn't recommend the habanero chicken or teriyaki chicken. Both were kinda dry. All in all, if you don't wanna cook and you're craving karaage or gyudon, def go to yoshinoya :) read more
