    I ordered a large original beef bowl and 1 large grilled beef bowl and the size of the grilled beef bowl was significantly smaller than the original. Shouldn't they be the same size (quantity)?? There was nothing "grilled" about the beef either. It was just the original with sauce drizzled all over it. See for yourself...You be the judge.

    I stopped by to pick up a late night dinner tonight and was greeted by a kind employee. He was patient while I placed my order. When my food waa ready, he noticed that an individual carrying a long stick was lingering around and he very thoughtfully walked me to my car. I did not expect that and I really appreciated that he prioritized helping me feel safe. His job did not stop at the register or the door, he ensured that my entire experience was positive. I also saw him explaining to another female customer that he will also walk her to her car so she leaves safely. I wish i knew this employees name! He deserves all the recognition.

    This location has to be one of my favorites. Other places I've been to the quality and quantity always makes me question if it's worth it. This location has it good! Good quality and it's usually quick service.

    I usually like the Yoshinoya food that is served. This latest experience left a lot to be desired. I ordered the combo bowl with Korean BBQ meatballs and chili shrimp. The meatballs were way overcooked and the shrimp made me feel like they were from a plastics display, as I tried to eat them. Some of the vegetables were slightly cool, while others were extremely hot. I'm not fond of giving negative reviews, and look for to a positive update after my next dining out at that location.

    This is a pretty standard Beef Bowl. Been here for decades. Parking is very limited. Parking in the back is a little sketchy. People get booze from liquor store and drink back there.

    Nice people works here, always buzy but they try their best to make it quick. All the staff members are so nice. Chef Kyle is a buzy man, but happy to cook and thanks to him. Evelyn, Carolina, kyle are some of the staff members you see and always smile and give you fresh food.

    The managers are kindness, helpful. The staff are very nice. This yoshinoya store is the best of the best around the middle and southern California that I have been.

    Omfg. World's SLOWEST workers. All I ordered was a side order of gyoza and it took them damn near 20 freakin mins to pack up STEAMED gyoza for my to-go order. Baffled what could have taken them so damn long to serve steamed anything but what do I know...well besides that I probably ain't going back there!

    Was pretty questionable going In. placing my order was simple. Staff was very patient & understanding of my requests, fairly clean & roomie restroom[1] (restaurant required a code for the restroom). Receiving my order was well packaged & ready to take home but opted to dine in, food was spectacular got three Boba tea's all made perfectly all flavorful & perls were fresh & soft. Beef was cooked to perfection rice was fresh & chicken is always a must have. Staff kept the restaurant clean & was very accommodating giving all condiments in generous portions

    Excellent customer service good food preparation was delicious. The music they were playing was excellent as well. Couldn't stop dancing while I ate in restaurant. I loved it.

    This place is still open later than most other locations now it closes at 12midnite ... Although the food was good n they got my order correct. I still am disappointed I haven't been able to try the udon noodles with my meal. Both times I have gone for dinner they had no more. ☹️☹️

    Been to here over the years, largely no issue. Today, dropped by again at noon, to get my quota of omega 3 and protein. The girl was no fuss, I was zipping through the line in no time. It’s not perfect, the fish was fine, whereas the beef was a little too chewy and bland. Might be dinner hours would have been simmered sufficiently, hence appetizing enough!

  • 2/5 Fang P. 9 months ago on Google
    This was the free bowl when you downloaded the app and register. You can choose between beef or chicken (I got beef). Then choose veggies (which I had everything). The server here was very nice actually, but the amount of beef I got was less than the amount I had when I ate at another Yoshinoya location. Rice and veggie portion was impressive. Beef tasted good but the veggies didn’t taste very clean to me. It feels like they didn’t wash it well before boiling. I ended up discarded all the veggies except for the broccoli. They have a small parking lot. Pretty crowded at lunch time but the wait was not long.

    Gave me the wrong food. Also told the worker the card reader buttons weren't working and they kept telling me my card wasn't going through asim trying to get them to realize the machine was messed up.

    This my first foray into this Japanese Fast Food Restaurant. It is located in Alhambra, California which has a large and lovely Asian community I seriously thought this would be much better. I grew up eating all types of cuisine and there is not much I can say about this place that is going to be encouraging. If Subway could make a worse bland sandwich, if McDonalds sold a complex meal that became homogenized in the process of development this is Yoshinoya. I had the Gyudon Beef and Teriyaki Chicken. I am on the 16/8 intermittent fasting diet and can only eat up to 3 pm and so I really eat at lunch time. The rice was a fat zero and the vegetables were not far behind. Unfortunately I had never had "Gyudon Beef" and even though at the Mongolian BBQ your meat is also thinly sliced it was from a solid part of the cow before it became sliced. My lunch meat was as if it was turned into a larger nugget of meat from every trimmed piece they could find, then sliced. Seriously if I wanted some thinly sliced beef from ARBY's I would've gone to Arby's and ordered the Half Pound Roast Beef with extra veggies [I do enjoy Arbys and when ya want Arby's ya get Arby's]. I have been to a few Donburi styled eateries before and thought this would be that level of experience. It was not. It was so not.I thought it would be better. The soy sauce was not very tasty either - low sodium - you put twice as much on your food which doesnt really help but oh well. When you're hungry you're hungry. This place was friendly, clean & tidy and it was busy and the "food" was hot: I won't do it again though. For balance of the previous statement - I have eaten twinkies and doughnuts more than once. [and will eat at least one churro next week]

    This place got some of the best workers, especially when I get my order 3 times. Like I would ask for sauce on the side, and they would still put sauce on the chicken. Like these people really need to grow some ears before working as a cashier. The food is like every other place, good simply. Other than that, they need to work on their service

    I enjoy the combo bowl with beef and skinless chicken with white rice and vegetables.

  • 1/5 Ioan O. 2 years ago on Google
    Stale, boneless chicken wings are bland and hard. You can tell when its freezer burned then deep fried. Combo plates have more rice than veggies and/or meat. Disappointed quality and quantity for the meal price. The previous text was last year, this text is this is current as of 08272021... This a freaking joke, my wife went to get me the steak bbq meat, and the meal is dissatisfying again, it's not even worth the coupon, the meat is bland, dry, and chewy like a microwave reheated meat, please don't get ripped by this so called premium meat for extra charge.....

  • 3/5 Jenny C. 1 year ago on Google
    The food here is okay, like a typical Yoshinoya. Just wish they would provide more meat to rice ratio, I do feel like they are very stingy about the meat here. The parking is shared with 4 other shops, but not generally busy. Although if you are here for a take out it takes about 15-20 minutes for your order. They are a bit understaffed and slow so not recommend if you need to grab it and go. But otherwise just another Yoshinoya.
