Best Sushi & Teriyaki

This is our 5^th time at this location and each time the food was good. The lady at the counter is always pleasant.

Probably wouldn’t go back. I had 8 piece gyoza and the Las Vegas Roll (both of which I’ve had at various places. The gyoza was barely crispy and only on the edges. It was still white all around. Not impressed. The Las Vegas roll was so covered in sauce I could barely taste the insides of the roll. Plus, it took probably 15 or more minutes to make the food and there was only one person ahead of me. Pretty depressed.

Originally when this place was new it was fine. Over the years this place must have changed owners. Well, recently we ate Chicken Yuki-​soba and Chicken Terrible-​aki. They both had a taste of being leftovers and of being reheated. The sesame chicken was devoid of flavor. It didn’t’ really taste like chicken, not sure what it was but appeared to be more like dry tough leather, it makes you wonder what type of meat if any that they use.
A disturbing thing was seen when ordering food. We just happened to see one cook, in the back area, drop his tongs on the floor and put them back near his stove top. He did this without changing them out! Horrible health issue here being they may treat other cleaning responsibilities the same way. If the management would please have people retrained in food handling, it would be great for those that are willing to eat there!

I have been to this place multiple times food is pretty good but the service is always mediocre.

Love their food! Family oriented and they work so hard to provide great quality. Probably the best teriyaki up north.

I’ve been to this location of Best Sushi and Teriyaki six times during the summer. I finally revisited again for a late lunch earlier today. I always order the same Beef Bento (under $ 19 with tax/​tip) when I know I need a substantial meal to sustain me.
Straight forward ordering at the counter and your order is brought to you fairly fast… before, during, or after the weekday lunch rush.
Beef Bento comes with a starter salad with sesame dressing, portion of California roll with wasabi and pickled ginger, pair each of shrimp tempura and gzoya, scoop of steamed rice, and tasty (not cloying or salty) teriyaki beef. All washed down with ice water.
I appreciate the consistency of the food and efficiency of the service. I can eat heartily (read very generous selection for a bento) within a reasonable amount of time. Not fancy pants, just straight forward Japanese/​Korean style cuisine.

First comment on Unilocal cuz I am so pissed. The beef short ribs here are so full of shit… 17 bucks (not large portion) I could have gone to much better restaurant and eat there. The rice is TERRIBLE…(how can u make rice bad right! They certainly have a talent for it) the short ribs has pink inside, no sauce on the ribs and meat is so fucking DRY. Top of all of this shit, when I called to ask why their short ribs are more pricy than others, the guy working there REFUSED TO EXPLAIN just HANG UP ON me. Awesome attitude. This place is so full of shit. Disgusting food (even when I am hungry) and even more disgusting service! DON’T GO HERE for real! Complete waste of money.

What a disappointment. I like the Lynnwood location so decided to give this place a try. Their meat is dry. Their katsu is burned and thin. Their oil must be old since the fried food was dark brown rather than light yellowish color. The one that disappoint the most was that their white rice was NOT cleaned properly. This is like a ritual for us Asian people. They clean their rice ritually. I even tip upfront and still got the horrible service. Your money is better spent else where. Never coming back to this place. No thank you.

I ordered the number 42 or 43 tonight, i cant remember which. It was a bento box with teriyaki chicken, tempura prawns, white rice, salad, gyoza’s and California rolls, and it unexpectedly came with a tempura battered broccoli, carrot, and zucchini. All the food was so fresh and the presentation was really really impressive!!! It was so much food, i didn’t which to eat first. It was only $ 11.99 which i thought was more than fair! I highly recommend them as I’ve eaten here before and have always ordered the chicken katsu and California roll and it never disappoints! They also have take out! Good prices all around!

It’s a bit pricy, but they offer the best sushi for sure
Little advice add Mochi to your menu

The young female server wasn’t the most friendly person I’ve seen. She didn’t smile and she just seemed like she was in a rush to get us out of the place even though they weren’t even busy and there was nobody else waiting to order. I ordered the general tsao which was good, although the rice wasn’t very good.

Wanted to customize my almost 20 $ sushi order and was just told. NO you can’t what you see is what you get. And like Kevin stated the lady behind the counter seemed less than thrilled to even be there taking orders much less trying to finish taking my order before asking for my $$ I wanted a bubble tea as well but didn’t bother as I didn’t want to waste any more of the ladies time. Then when I get my sushi I paid 10 $ for which was not all all what I wanted to order in the first place, There are only 5 very large pieces, at least they taste good though. Will NEVER waste My OR their time again going to this place.

I come here for lunch sometimes and always order the lunch special, which happens to be chicken and gyoza. The food comes out very quickly and the portions are generous. Everything tastes good and they don’t overcook the chicken.
I think they have issues servicing their entire menu sometimes since I see people often get rejected when ordering their less popular items.

I LOVE this place. It’s true, the service girl at the cashier is not always peppy and happy but… who cares? The good thing is this place doesn’t have waiters so you only have to deal with the service once. The last two times I was there, the service was great though! I think it just depends.
ON TO THE FOOD. OMG. It always comes out super fast. The sushi rolls are fresh, fresh freshhhhh. I love california rolls and my boyfriend has the deluxe fancy sashimi meal (it looks beautiful!). We have also had the chicken katsu (I recommend this for children as well as adults) it is mouthwateringly tender and perfectly breaded! The flavor is so fresh. Every time I come here I see lots of people pigging out with delicious spreads of teriyaki and rice, bento boxes, sushi, etc.
It’s a small place wedged between a Subway and a Fro-​yo shop but just give it a try, I want this place to get more business so they stay open! Please don’t dismiss it just because of the other reviews.
Idk why a few people are bitching about the prices. I’m from California and these are standard prices for food, and this is delicious, healthy, well prepared food! My boyfriend and I eat there for $ 20 total! And we are stuffed and sometimes have left overs… that is $ 10 average for us both with drinks. Sorry but if you want anything cheaper you might as well just ask for free food.

This place was pretty yummy. The teriyaki comes in smaller portions but it still fills you up! The sushi was yummy as well and we liked the boat it came on. The fried rice wasn’t very good as it tasted like it was burnt. Pretty good overall though.

Meh. Not great, not terrible. A little over priced for chicken and rice. The sauce was bland and I ended up adding some Yoshidas I had in my fridge. Seeing as teriyaki spots are a dime a dozen I probably won’t be coming back here.

«Best» is a bit of an embellishment to describe this place by any means, but I suppose «Average Sushi & Teriyaki» wouldn’t have made for a very alluring title. Even if the food was average, they don’t try to make up for it any other way, either. Let’s just say that the lady behind the counter appeared less than thrilled about her job. To be honest, I can’t blame her.
I got a dish of chicken teriyaki. The salad was okay. The rice was just rice. There was a good amount of chicken teriyaki, but they covered it in way too much sauce. It really wouldn’t have needed so much sauce to taste good. I don’t find it surprising that anyone working here would be apathetic about their job. It’s hard to be motivated when you depend on a completely ordinary restaurant to pay the bills.

A simple restaurant serving simple and delicious food. We had the shrimp tempura, shrimp teriyaki, tofu den and fried rice.
I couldn’t get enough of the teriyaki sauce and the salad dressing. I need those recipes ASAP!
Super tasty food that came out very fast, a good portion and reasonable prices make Best Sushi & Teriyaki one of my favorite places to eat in Seattle.

I sure have been going to a lot of bad Asian restaurants in Lynnwood lately. Such a shame. Here we go.
Cons:
Very pricey.
Small portions.
Spicy is not spicy.
Meat is tough.
Pros:
Gyoza is good.
That’s about it.

Went here for dinner with my bestie about 2 weeks ago.
It’s a small teriyaki place right by Menchie’s. She raved about the sushi.
I ordered the spicy chicken teriyaki.
The woman looked at me like she didn’t understand me but whatevs, didn’t deter me at all. The food seriously came out faster than any other teriyaki place I’ve ever been to. Not even sitting down for 5 minutes & my food was delivered to my table.
The food was good, no complaints!
I’ll try their sushi next time.
