The sis and I needed something fast, and we were stoked to try a new restaurant on State Street. The atmosphere is casual, upbeat modern. I liked the simplicity of the menu: you choose your protein, which ranges from pork and chicken (breast or thigh) to salmon and tofu. You can also opt for veggies. I was happy to see that I could order chicken thighs: not only are they cheaper than breast meat ($8.25 for the meal), but they pack a lot more flavor, IMO. You order white or brown rice and the dressing for your salad (you also have the option to order extra rice and no salad, or extra salad and no rice).
The service is very friendly and reasonably fast. We picked up our bowls from the counter feeling very optimistic about the meal: the presentation was lovely, and--to me, at least--it seemed like a lot of food. I loved the sesame dressing on the salad. BUT. The teriyaki sauce was just...BAD. And nothing will suck the wind out of your sails in a bigger hurry than yucky sauce. I ate all of the salad and about half of the meat and rice, then tossed the rest into the dustbin. What a disappointment!
