Othello Wok and Teriyaki - Reviews

I was referred to this restaurant by customers who suggested they could accommodate family orders. However, when I inquired about a family order for approximately 19 people, I was told they wouldn't do so unless it was for 50 or more. They wanted to charge us individually. I was advised to call the manager after 6 pm, but was also told he would likely give the same response. The staff refused to provide the manager's name, preventing me from specifying who I spoke with. It's surprising that a restaurant would turn down potential business. I will definitely not be returning and will find another place to feed my visiting family from out of state.

This has got to be the best teriyaki in town. While Teriyaki Madness offers more rice, this place excels in flavor, taste, and appearance. The teriyaki sauce is delicious and mouth-watering, truly the best I've ever had, especially in Seattle where teriyaki is a serious matter. It's like saying Seattle is known for great coffee and awesome teriyaki – what more could you need in life?

My experience involved ordering the Beef & Chicken Teriyaki Combination, which was overwhelmingly sweet and salty. To make matters worse, there was too much darn sauce. I also noted that you don't get the pleasure of having sauce at the table, nor can you choose your silverware. I will never again return, regardless of how hungry I am.

I have to say the food is pretty good here; you won’t be dissatisfied! However, they now charge for extra sauce, which they didn't used to do, claiming people abused it. It makes one wonder how cheap a business has to be to charge for sauce. The service is not too bad, although one afternoon, a lady came in complaining about her order and the owner started arguing with her. This made the situation awkward and uncomfortable for me and I'm sure others as well. I can't understand why business owners wouldn't treat their customers like family – just be polite, be nice, and take care of your customers. It was unneeded and unnecessary to argue and create a stressful environment for everyone. It just bothered me that this could have been handled with kindness and understanding for the customers who keep that business running and pay their bills.

People are lying; this place is so mid. It’s lunch time and I’m the only person here, which is concerning. The food was rated a 2, and the service and atmosphere both received a 3. Overall, a disappointing experience.

My experience at this restaurant was marked by a stark contrast between the service and the food. The people were nice, but the food was honestly disgusting. The chicken teriyaki, in particular, felt like it came from a frozen TV dinner – it was under-cooked and rubbery. While the service was pleasant, the food quality was a major letdown.

My experience at this restaurant was mixed. I found that if you stick to the Teriyaki dishes, they tend to be pretty decent. However, I would not recommend their noodles or fried rice. The noodles were often covered in copious amounts of seemingly raw garlic, and the fried rice was either swimming in water or oil. Some dishes, like their orange chicken, were absolutely revolting. While it's understandable if a cook doesn't know how to properly prepare certain items, they need to learn before serving them to customers. The atmosphere was quiet and easy to talk in, and there was no wait time.

My experience at this restaurant was a mixed bag. The atmosphere was great, earning a 5/5. However, the food experience was disappointing, rated 1/5. I ordered shrimp fried rice for $16. 99 and was surprised to only receive three shrimp. Additionally, they have a peculiar practice of flipping their containers upside down to conserve food, which raises concerns about hygiene and presentation.

My experience at this restaurant was fantastic! The owner was super nice, and we thoroughly enjoyed a variety of foods, all of which were great. The location offers very easy access from the light rail, making it a perfect stop on the way to the airport. We jumped off the train, and they were extremely quick, which worked perfectly for our timing. I also understand they have free parking.

My experience at the restaurant was generally positive, with fresh and tasty food. My only issue was the portion size, as it wasn't a lot, though it did fill me up. I also wished for more hot sauce, as the packets provided were not enough. 🔥
