" I've never felt more welcome at a restaurant! The staff were incredibly friendly. The chicken teriyaki was cooked right in front of me, and boy, was it cold outside but the food warmed my heart! I took my kids, and they absolutely loved every bite. Would highly recommend giving this family-friendly spot a shot! " (*Curated Review*)

" I gave this restaurant a try and was let down with my order. My chicken was overcooked and lacked flavor. The service wasn't bad per se, but the overall feeling of the mall's abandonment didn't help either. I possibly might visit again, but will think carefully before making that choice. " (*Curated Review*)

" My husband and I were craving teriyaki and decided to finally try this place. The chicken was tender, and the rice was plentiful. Despite being in a mall that’s not the best upscale environment, the food was rates close to a restaurant! A touch of nostalgia as well, as I've grown up eating here; it’s like a little piece of home. " (*Curated Review*)

" It's hard to argue against Yihi Japan when the food is this good! The chicken teriyaki was tender and generously portioned. I had a fabulous experience, but the atmosphere of the mall left much to be desired. The service was okay, but I think it costs more to keep the quality up. Will be back soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" I’ve been frequenting this spot for years and I can honestly say they've maintained a high standard. The quality of chicken teriyaki is consistent, it’s just as good as the first time I tried it. The service can be a bit slow when it gets crowded, so I recommend going during off-peak hours to enjoy the meal in peace. Overall, still one of my favorites! " (*Curated Review*)

" Just got takeout from Yihi Japan, and it was phenomenal! I ordered the shrimp and chicken teriyaki combo, and it came with a heap of fried rice. The flavors were spot on, and everything tasted incredibly fresh. I miss the dine-in experience, especially watching the chefs work, but even at home, this place does not disappoint. " (*Curated Review*)

" Wow! This restaurant really brings back a flood of fond memories for me. I used to go here as a kid and it still holds up. The chicken teriyaki is still my favorite, cooked in front of you and always served fresh. The generosity in portions makes every visit feel like a reward. Even if the mall is outdated, it’s the food that matters most to me! " (*Curated Review*)
