Quick and tasty. They take your order and they get you out of there quick and the food is steam hot. Yummy, thanks Monica she is nice and professional.

Very clean spot with some great customer service. The lady working the cash registered hooked me up with a ton of pickled ginger!

Their chicken teriyaki large bowls are great. 2 for $8 is a steal. The orange chicken was decent but no vegetables in the orange chicken bowl is pretty lame. The orange chicken itself is good though, tastes light, and really meaty.

I only knock them because of the charge for extra meat is pricey and when u give someone broth it should be put in a separate plastic bag so it don't spill and when u get home u don't have none...there's one lady who is so rude to customers like ok I had to stop my husband from telling her about her attitude..it wasn't pleasant

Fast and fresh tasting. Not bad for the price. Seating area is clean. Kyle looked like he was so done with the day.

So glad I opted for a regular beef bowl with brown rice and extra juice at Yoshinoya instead of a burger at a nearby place. I don't write many reviews but the employees Ellen's and Juan provided great customer service and this was a truly outstanding meal, and an added bonus is I used the app where they offered $2.50 discount off of any bowl. I'll definitely come back to this location again. Asking for the extra juice made this bowl even better.

My kid loves this place. He always requests to pick up food here. His go to is the large beef bowl and usually orders milk tea. You, they now offer milk tea with boba. The restaurant is overall clean.

COVID-19: Social distancing is not enforced at this establishment. Some of the staff wears a mask. All customers are not expected to wear a mask. It's optional now. Some of the staff also wears gloves. There are some hand sanitizers available for customers to use. This place is available for take outs and has some indoor seating available with no limited capacity. They are not sanitizing in between customers. COVID-19 Vaccination Proof: This establishment currently does not require proof of vaccination. While I was grabbing my food from this establishment several days ago, I asked if they had any special offers and they weren't offering any at the moment. They currently don't have happy hour. They also do not allow pets in their establishment UNLESS it's a service animal. Parking: The parking lot for this establishment is tiny. I usually avoid parking in the lot because sometimes people are careless and they ding your car. Food: I ordered a beef bowl with steamed veggies. Yoshinoya's Beef Bowl features thin slices of USDA choice beef simmered with fresh onions in a special sauce of herbs and spices over a bed of plump steamed white rice. From my experience, the beef and onions is usually slow-simmered in a mirin (sweet rice vinegar) and soy sauce based broth as well as some bonito (fish) flakes or dashi (seaweed based) giving it a distinctive taste that I only associated with Japanese beef bowls. Yoshinoya makes as good a beef bowl as any other Japanese restaurants that I've been to that actually serve it (not many do). The beef has a good slightly vinegary, soy flavor and is fairly tender and quite thin, add the tendon and there's quite a bit of texture to the beef. The steamed veggies (broccoli, carrots, and cabbage) are bland, but when you add soy sauce to it, it tastes so much better. I had also ordered a large coke. Staff: The staff here are very friendly, fast, and welcoming. They accept both cash and credit cards. There is no credit card minimum.
