Yay decent teriyaki near campus that I like better then the nearby Paradise Hawaiian Got the Katsu Bento for 6.95 and friend got the Teriyaki Chicken sans bento for a dollar less. Big portions - Cheap - Cool interior So far I'm a fan of this restaurant row of Grilled Ave and Gluttons (Oh yea its Korean owned! And you can draw on the walls like they do at The Street Boba)

Great boba, good teriyaki, and cute a location. I've had the ramen and found it to be far too salty, but that's ok, I know now to stick with the teriyaki or the bulgogi, which have never disappointed. It's definitely my preferred boba spot in Tempe.

This is a great little place right near campus. Seemed under the radar but I've been going for over a year and they don't disappoint. The katsu chicken is my favorite meal, sometimes with a side of hawaiian fried shrimp. The boba is what sells this place for me. Their flavors taste great and are never watered down whether blended or on ice. Black milk tea, thai tea, and taro are my favorites so far. Definitely coming here even after I graduate.

I've eaten here twice and it's okay. The meat to rice ratio is kind of sad, and they're not generous at all with the amount of boba in the boba drinks. The smoothie drinks themselves are all powder-based, I tried the avocado and it was yuck. The boba itself is alright, they were kinda harder than the average tapioca ball. However, this place does the trick if you're hungry, but I'd just go to Paradise Hawaiian BBQ for the same type of food for better quality and value.

I was eating the NEW YORK SUSHI BENTI and I realized that tempe is NOT THAT BAD. Seriously, so so delicious! I would live inside Grilled Ave if I could! They make their macaroni salads with the tears of angels some pepper and some corn! Definitely the most redeeming factor of a dry ass, hot ass desert town. Super bummed that they're closed on sunday because I WANT TO EAT HERE EVERYDAY! I WANT TO LIVE HERE EVERYDAY! Often is half the price of chipotle without the fckn corporate greed! GET FED WITHOUT FEEDING THE MACHINE MANNN! - Al

This place is decent to say the least. I only come here when I'm desperate. I typically go to the nearby Paradise Hawaiian BBQ for Asian bbq and local dishes from Hawaii. The chicken katsu is just ok and the same can be said about the Teri plates. The prices are also decent. The service is spotty but this place is family run it seems so that's understandable. They do NOT honor the current free drink after yelp check in deal. Wish this place had better quality food and service.

I really wanted to like this place but I was thoroughly disappointed. For starts, the service was bad. The guy taking our order acted as if we were a burden. We ordered passion fruit slush with boba, mocha slush with boba, teriyaki chicken bento, and a shortrib bento. It took about 30 minutes. The boba was GARBAGE. the drinks were chalky, overly sweet with syrup and the boba was hard and tasted old. We tossed them in the trash immediately. The shortrib meat was mostly fat, what a ripoff. The teriyaki chicken was TOUGH and dry, and the macaroni salad is like mystery mush. I'm so sad and disappointed and will not be returning.

This place is awesome as long as you get there around lunch time. Their Teriyaki and Orange Chicken bowls are AWESOME. Just make sure you go early, as I think (based on 2 prior visits in the evening) that they grill a good amount of chicken and kinda store it until its gone that day. AWESOME food, but not the freshest at dinnertime.
(4)Jason B.
I recently tried the spicy bulgogi rice bowl, and my post impression is that it satiated my hunger at the time, and the pork bulgogi had good spice and flavor, and for serving size they were generous. As for price, it was inexpensive and service was quick. My grievance is their milk tea size selection. There's only one, and it's a large. Not a fan of being relegated to a large size drink, they should just stick with a small/regular size and not be an enabler to growing waists.
(3)Curtis C.
First time back in a while. Tried the split bento half orange chicken half teriyaki beef. Had to pay $1 extra to split. Portions we a decent size. Price is great. Less then $9 even with the extra $1. Service was great. Seating are is very small. Orange chicken was good. Kinda tangy. Better than the beef which was also kinda tangy for some reason. Not even close to pei Wei but not bad. Side salad was typical Asian salad. Mixed greens with a vinaigrette.
(3)Stephanie R.
I have had several rice bowls there including orange chicken and teriyaki chicken, and they were both awesome. Portions are nice and big, and there is an awesome selection of items to choose from. The drinks are wonderfully varied as well, and I was even able to get iced coffee with bobba in it! It was awesome. And also always check upstairs for the extra seating! It's really pretty up there :) Only drawback is closeness to the street, which can make you an unintentional hearer of misunderstandings between passer-byes.
(4)Minh L.
A great place to eat near campus if you want some Japanese or Korean meat and rice, amongst other things. I ordered the Spicy Bulgogi bowl (there is also a bento version with some sides like kimchi, macaroni or salad for an extra +$1). The price for this bowl was ~$7, give or take. It was a lot of food and also good tasting. But, one small thing is that it is 75% rice and 25% meat. It was still worth it and delicious nonetheless. So if you want a quick bite to eat, I recommend checking out Grilled Avenue. Well, it's quick during certain times.
(4)Veekas S.
They don't honor the Yelp deal they have listed here. I ordered a plate (bento) and wasn't offered my choice of sides even though they were listed on the menu, so make sure to ask for what you want as sides. Ordered the chicken katsu and the teriyaki beef. The katsu tasted pretty good and the beef was alright. Overall, the food is aesthetically pleasing and tastes okay for the price but a bit of a let down, even if I disregard the false advertising.
(2)L M.
This is a family-owned Korean restaurant. Their kimchi IS the BEST!! Sometimes the wait is looong but I don't care about the wait as the quality of food they serve is awesome. Definitely recommend this place to anyone who likes to have delicious healthy lunch :-) ^^
(5)Kyle S.
Easily the best teriyaki in town! It's very affordable and generously portioned. Service is as quick as possible for the size of the business, and the atmosphere is cozy and family-style. Speaking of family, it feels good to support a local business. Particularly since the menus is quite expansive for their limited staff! The only complaint is that lunch rush means seating fills up very quickly and you may have to take your meal to eat outside or somewhere else. A small price to pay for the cheapest and tastiest lunch in Tempe! Recommended dish: teriyaki bowl with extra vegetables. Divine!

Grilled Ave is right down the street from my apartment and I find myself craving it all the time. PROS: -The teriyaki beef and chicken bentos are delicious. It kind of reminds me of a better version of Flamebroiler (which no longer exists in Tempe). -Bento boxes come with a big, manly serving of white rice and choice of meat. As a bonus, the macaroni salad that comes with it is awesome. I would go there for the macaroni salad alone. Grand total came $7.50 with tax... not bad. -They sell capri suns, need I say more. CONS: Restaurant itself is very small; its definitely a place to take your food and go, although they do have limited seating inside. Can be very crowded at lunchtime when school is in session. BIGGER CON: I have found a hair in my food TWICE. Definitely killed the mood both times. I do worry about the cleanliness of the place.

This cozy express eatery offers primarily teriyaki bowls in chicken (orange, katsu), beef (bulgogi, l\kalbi) and rib from 4.99-$5.99. Bento lunches, which include macaroni salad, steamed rice and vegetables are only $1.50 more. The surprise hit here is the sushi rolls. There are only three kinds, but they are not only made fresh and are incredibly flavorful, but at $5.49 they are a delicious value. You absolutely have to try their version of the Las Vegas Roll, with avocado and cream cheese combined with spicy crab and lightly tempura battered and fried, then drizzled with a sweet chili sauce. Their assortment of smoothies ranging from coconut to guava, iced blended coffees, and boba teas is also notable. The seating area is small, the space is cramped overall, the air conditioning does not seem to be working well, but the staff is friendly and committed to their product - and it's just a great place to come by for take-out or a quick bite.

EDIT: the service is actually pretty slow. But it is good here. Great little place for good, cheap teriyaki. They're not the fastest, but the staff is friendly and it's not unbearably slow. The food is very good for the price. Although the place is kind of small, its cozy and there is decent seating. The boba isn't the best. The boba itself is kind of chewy my taste and I taste a lot of sugar in the tea. But the flavor isn't bad. Overall, it's a nice plae close to campus - good for a between-class lunch.
(4)Navid A.
Best value by ASU campus. Fresh food, good size, great taste. Cons? Very small inside, and sometimes there is a wait. Spicy teriyaki chicken bowl is my go-to option here and it is ideal. So much more flavor than your average fast-food Asian restaurant it just wakes up my tongue with flavor. Just so you know, despite the name it is not very spicy at all. For about $7 bucks it's the most food for your money you can get around campus, and the punch card gives a great incentive to come back for more. The bento is worth the few dollars extra I really like their macaroni salad it's not mushy or generic like others. Depending on the time and the day there can be a bit of a wait. Seating is very limited too and not the kind of place you could sit and pass the time. But for lunch or to-go there is no ASU place I'd recommend more.
(4)Alex L.
Its a nice place with great Asian food, cheaply priced. Takes about five to ten minutes to wait for food, and its a good place to hang out with friends.
(4)Ping L.
A great place to go for a quick lunch. Their teriyaki chicken and beef dishes are very tasty and reasonably priced. One downside of this place - do not get their boba tea. I was excited that they have bona tea initially but their boba tea are loaded with brown sugar. You can barely taste the tea and sugar content is extremely high. They also would not serve their boba tea with no ice.
(3)John Q.
The food was good on my visits as described in my original review. However, I have found the bubble tea to take a dive in quality. It is far too sweet and contains about 90% water/sugar with little to no tea flavor. Also, I always get met with confusion and hysteria when I ask for no ice. This is a completely normal request and I have never met this resistance at any other boba shop. I won't be getting tea here again, although I may go again for food.
(3)Emma B.
Went here for boba based on a review. I got avocado, it was pretty good but there really wasn't much boba : ( a little disappointed
(4)Mell H.
Food: Amazing, absolutely delicious. My favorite is the New York roll and the Teriyaki tofu. Service: horrible. it's not in a timely manner. Once I ordered my usual, thai boba with teriyaki tofu... they brought out my food really late, I waited over a half hour and there wasn't many people there. Also... THEY FORGOT THE TOFU! they brought my plate to me with just rice and greens but no tofu.... HOW DOES SOMEONE FORGET A DETAIL LIKE THAT? the service is horrible.... but the food is worth it.
(2)Victoria K.
So I decided to check this place out because the numbers didn't sound too bad. $5 for a chicken teriyaki bowl. Decent portion, I will say that..... however I can get the same stuff for $2 at #1 Sushi in Metrocenter. Also, they cook their food ahead of time, and scoop the rice and chicken out of containers. It's okay, a little too dry for my taste, but by no means the worst I have ever had... They are really nice though and the potstickers were great.... they fry those to order.
(3)Hide S.
This place was good for its price. It is defeniy place where it gives you the college atmosphere. Their lunch box menu is pretty simple. Many people seems to get to go box because of the space limit. I would recommend this place to everyone if you are hungry. Everything is under 10 so it is budget friendly.
(3)Na Humma N.
Good food, great price! A mix of Korean and Japanese dishes to satisfy your Asian cravings, at prices reasonable enough for the college crowd (just about everything was less than $10). The place is tiny, so during a rush it would be difficult to try and get around, but when I went at 7 pm, the place was comfortable and the two people working there were friendly. My only complaint was that the sushi roll we got was falling apart en route to my mouth, but it was still tasty! Pay with cash to help keep costs low! :)
(4)Matt P.
Actually ordered food from here this time. I got the fried sushi roll with lobster (I can't remember the name), and it was pretty good considering this eatery doesn't exactly specialize in sushi. Also, if ordering a drink, or at least a milk tea, I personally recommend getting it blended, as opposed to iced, as last time my iced milk tea came out far too potent, but my blended milk tea today was far more suitable for my palate. The boba, however, was far too firm for my liking. Warning: it can be a little pricey though, as a small--although the cup itself isn't too diminutive in size--milk tea is $4.
(3)Nick S.
Great food! Not too pricey really nice and typically doesn't take long at all. I go there atleast once a week and my wallet isn't complaining and my stomach is certainly thanking me every time!
(5)Michael N.
I had the Chicken Teriyaki bento. Nice sauce, grilled very well. The macaroni salad seemed to be pretty standard, and the "veggies" I got was little more than some salad mix with a ginger-y dressing. Overall it was good, but I think a little overpriced for what it was. Also, they did not honor the Yelp Check-in coupon for a free drink with entree that I attempted to use.
(3)Nicolas J.
Best place in Tempe for fast, cheap, and most importantly delicious food. No question about it. Great people, great food.
(5)Annie S.
Love the new York and Vegas rolls. I don't like how they waste so much styrofoam but overall a yummy place and close to the design building. Prepare to wait a while for your food though. If you go there frequently, ask for a stamp card.
(4)Jacq D.
Went back two more times and tried their Chicken Katsu Bento, Hawaiian Shrimp and Kal Bee Bento. I think my favorites are Chicken Katsu and Kalbee so far. The portion of food you get for the price definitely won't leave you hungry. I actually had to eat my bento in phases so I can finish everything. I love the fact that the whole family are working there from ordering to making your food. A really nice and friendly place to relax and enjoy affordable good Korean food. Can't wait for them to extend their hours and add more Korean dished on their menu.
(4)Rasheed A.
This place is phenomenal. The food is flavorful and very reasonable priced. It's centrally located on the ASU Tempe campus and offers students a great variety that was lacking in that specific part of campus. My favorite thing there was the Bulgogi or Bul Go Kee (as on the menu) and I got a bento box combo that came with a delicious side salad and creamy macaroni salad. For $8, the amount of food and quality of meat was great. Also, they offer a great selection of both fountain and freezer drinks and snacks and the service is great. The owner is a sweetheart. As another reviewer noted, you can order from an eclectic selection of sides for your meal as well as an inspired and customer-friendly appetizer menu (available in half and full portions for those short on cash or appetite). You can also have your main combo meat normal or "spicy". Options/customization are huge with me. It show's the owner cares to provide a fun and enjoyable experience for their customer. Another cool thing too is that, if you enjoy a certain sauce you can buy bottles of their sauces that they'll make for you (Teriyaki, Ponzu, a crap load of others) for like $3.99. It's a great way to bring a flavor home and support a local restaurant. The level of detail (in a simplified and user-friendly sense) is astounding for such a small humble place on campus. I hope this place thrives unlike the last two places that were here (Mai and Gyros Hut). Also, how does it make sense to review an establishment based on a restaurant that used to be in its place? Gyros Hut actually predated Grilled, but you don't see me complaining about they're lack of lamb offering. LOL

I was introduced to Grilled Ave by my coworkers. Service and value are beyond compare. I always get the teriyaki chicken bowl. With tax it comes out to $5.45 and is enough food for 2 meals. The chicken is very tasty and the sticky rice is perfectly cooked.
(5)Quetzal V.
This place is small, but it serves the purpose, so far i have only tried the teriyaki chicken and the new york sushi and they are actually really good. It is conveniently located near ASU which is a plus for me since I have classes that are close by, so whenever I get hungry I walk a block and get a quick snack. Also their boba drinks are amazing!
(4)Darren C.
Huge portions but I'll tell them to go easy on the sauce next time. It's a little too much.
(4)Marty P.
This place is delicious had the katsu chicken delicious breaded chicken with an amazing sauce on top. Very small intimate place i will definitely come again to tey the rest of their food.
(5)Ashlynn S.
I've been going here since they opened. This place is a go-to for me when I want a cheap, delicious meal. I usually just get fried rice and a half-order of potstickers, which is enough food for my small appetite. The prices are great - about $3.50 for my order. The potstickers are crispy and come with a tasty vinegar-soy sauce. Their fried rice is the bomb. It has small pieces of carrots, broccoli and onion in it, and the seasoning they use is so good plain, but I'll usually throw a little sriracha and soy in it for my own personal tastes.
(5)Kevin H.
I've come in here a few times and I must say that it is delicious food at cheap prices. I got an entire teriyaki bowl and dumplings with a drink for under 7 dollars. Decent atmosphere, it is usually quiet, so perhaps a good spot to get some work done as you eat. Great place for lunch w friends. Take out is always an option too. Check it out if you're in the mood for something asian and different.
