" Had a family dinner at Teri Cafe, and while I loved the sushi and ramen, there were a few hiccups. My kids enjoyed the poke bowl, but the chicken teriyaki was slightly overcooked. The staff was attentive, making sure to ask if we needed anything multiple times. As for the atmosphere, it was inviting, creating a great family-friendly environment. Overall, I'll give it another visit for sure, maybe try something different next time! " (*Curated Review*)

" On a recent trip to Teri Cafe, I was particularly excited about their chicken teriyaki dish. Sadly, it didn't live up to my expectations. The chicken was a bit dry and overcooked, which was disappointing because I remember it being succulent in the past. However, the staff were attentive, and I appreciated their willingness to accommodate my request for extra sauce. The restaurant itself is cozy with a welcoming Hawaiian decor that adds a nice touch to the dining experience. I may give it another shot in the future, as I’ve had great meals here before. " (*Curated Review*)

" Our experience at Teri Cafe was solid. The colors and decor are vibrant and welcoming. I ordered the poke bowl, and it was fresh and flavorful. My only critique would be that the service was a bit slow during peak hours, likely due to how busy it can get. Nonetheless, I learned they have many options to accommodate different dietary restrictions. Definitely worth trying out! " (*Curated Review*)

" Our lunch at Teri Cafe was enjoyable! I ordered the poke bowl and was pleased to see fresh ingredients and generous portions. The decor had a nice island vibe, creating a relaxed environment. The only downside was the service felt slow at times, but the delicious food made up for it. Definitely want to visit again for another bowl. " (*Curated Review*)

" If you're seeking delicious authentic ramen with big portions, Teri Cafe is a fantastic option! On my recent visit, I ordered their Tonkotsu ramen. It's one of the best bowls I've eaten in the San Diego area, rich and flavorful. The service staff were engaging and made me feel welcomed right away, and it was nice eating in such a clean, bright environment. Overall, a must-visit for ramen lovers! " (*Curated Review*)

" Teri Cafe has been a go-to for my lunch breaks, and I appreciate how consistent they are with their food quality. The teriyaki chicken is bursting with flavor, and the portions are enough that I usually have leftovers for later. The casual vibe of the restaurant makes it easy to unwind during a hectic workday. I often recommend it to coworkers looking for a casual, friendly spot to grab lunch. Though sometimes the service could use a little pick-up during lunch rush, the overall experience is generally smooth and satisfying. " (*Curated Review*)

" My recent experience at Teri Cafe was nice overall. While the food was good, I felt the portion sizes seemed to have shrunk compared to past visits. I had the chicken teriyaki, and while it tasted good, I was left wanting more. Service was excellent – attentive and kind. The atmosphere has a great vibe, charming and clean. I’ll come back, but I hope they return to their previous portion sizes. " (*Curated Review*)
