Joy Teriyaki

Honestly the best teriyaki chicken I've ever had. I came here on a whim but I'm obsessed, if I lived here I'd come here every day!! The Yakisoba is my favorite the sauce is AMAZING and Katsu Chicken is so fresh and juicy. Super MACRO friendly!!!Also the people here are super nice, they look scary especially the man but he's so funny when you talk to him. Such a sweet beautiful little nook. I meant to take a picture before but I ate it up before I could So amazing 10/10

Good service and tasty food. The ambiance is what you expect for a take out food place, but they do have a few tables if you'd rather eat there. So far, all the meals we have tried have been pretty good. I recommend this for really good lunches and dinners.

The lady who served us was very rude.We asked him for hot sauce and he said we had to pay for it, we didn't want to pay for it and he went to the table and threw the sauce at us. It really wasn't necessary to have that attitude,She told us just pay it, it's not expensive.

Joy Teriyaki was one of my first Portland/Surrounding area teriyaki joints that I fell in love with back in like 2007. I have been going to them ever since. I very rarely get food thats not consistent and delicious. I recently moved to the Happy Valley area and was excited to see a Joy not to far from my home. This place gets a solid 3 stars. Customer service has been hit or miss. I've had some nice interactions, but most of the time they seem pretty busy (good sign) and don't feel like they have the time to greet and help. Its more of a "want do you want?... that will be X amount of dollars" and then you wait for your food. Its not neccesarily rude, just frank. The restaurants are setup kinda fast food like. They dont provide a strong "i wanna go eat here" vibe, but its usually fairly clean and comfortable for a quick meal. The hardest pill for me to swallow is that the prices have just kept going up and up and its getting close to $20 for a teriyaki plate (I believe is $16 for a regualr teriyaki chicken plate). I know inflation is a thing, but its getting so much more expensive that i've reverted to making it at home more. So im bummed that the cost has risen to the point of pricing me out. Because if im getting a meal for $20, I think the preparation should be a little higher (less gristley chicken, not soggy salad). I will probably go back everyonce and a while when I am out of food ideas and need a Yaki fix. But I appreciate the amount of times Joy has fed me over the years and so for that reason alone Id recommend a visit.

This place is great. They did change their hours to M-Sat 11am-8:30pm. Simple, good tasting teriyaki. And quick service too!

Come here a few more time and it has been great service and food! The spicy is real hot and the Katsu is fantastic, we get breast.

Amazing customer service, very fast and friendly I'll definitely be ordering from them again. The chicken was very moist and the fried rice was nice

This place is a chain?!?!?!? It doesn't SEEM like a chain:Is the food good? It is absolutely outstanding!Are the portion sizes small? They're enormous!!!Is all the food made ahead of time, fast food style? No, it's all made to order.Is the service disinterested and non-caring? Nope, the people running the establishment couldn't be friendlier and more helpful.Is it expensive? It's stupidly cheap, especially considering the titanic amount of food you get for your money.I'm SERIOUSLY blown away by Joy Teriyaki! I stopped in after working late for a fast dinner, and was mightily impressed by the friendliness and knowledge of the staff about all of the dishes. The service was fast and friendly, and upon opening my take-away at home, I couldn't believe the portion size! A big salad, two big scoops of rice, and, no joke, what appeared to be FOUR entire chicken thighs (boned and uniformly sliced). I could barely finish it. The other dishes were all equally generously sized.Unlike most establishments where portion size is the draw, the quality is tremendously great! Everything was perfectly cooked, perfectly seasoned, and absolutely delicious! The spicy chicken actually packs a good amount of heat, and has an amazingly great flavor.Don't bother with any of the other local teriyaki chains, just go to Joy. You'll be joyful that you did!

The chicken and beef was cold and undercooked. You have to pay extra for a little cup of sauce to go with your rice and meat.

Small building with small staff but definitely huge favorite when it comes to the chicken and rice bowl hitting the taste buds.Would love to recommend this one to the friends and family if they wanted something small after work or just to take home for the next day for lunch...Worth going if you like teriyaki bowls.Staff = Food = Atmosphere = Ambience= Would definitely go back since I live right in those apartments close by
