Our first meal in the state. Teriyaki was really good. But man, the nigiri was nuts! The quality of the fish relative to the price is absurd. So much so, that this is the only restaurant we went to twice during our trip throughout Washington. Second time, ordered a whole meal of just nigiri. Restaurant was clean and food is fast. Would definitely return.

I’ve been living in Asia for 9 years and THIS is the most perfect sushi I’ve ever had. They are SO generous with portions and the fish is so fresh that it melts in your mouth! Not to mention, the place was impeccably clean! And the service was fabulous. The staff were so genuinely friendly and welcome! I wish I could eat here every day.

My family and I spent the afternoon into early evening hours in Camano Island State Park and it was so beautiful. As we drove out of Camano Island to Stanwood, we spotted Happy Teriyaki. Of course, we decided to stop in. My sister-in-law and I walked in and we were immediately greeted by two young men. I loved their enthusiasm! As we perused the menu board, we opted for a couple combo plates, which included two scoops of rice and a side salad. We ordered a Teriyaki Chicken + Katsu Chicken combo plate, a Teriyaki Chicken + Beef Kalbi (Short Ribs) combo plate, and two sides of Shrimp Tempura. It took some time to prepare the plates so we waited in our vehicle until they brought out the food. The side salad was crunchy and cold - just how I like my salad. And the Teriyaki Chicken was delicious - not too heavily glazed, not overly sweet, and not too salty either. It was the right consistency for teriyaki. I really enjoyed it with the short-grain steamed rice. I actually didn’t need the extra teriyaki sauce that it came with. I thought the beef kalbi was okay; it’s actually much thinner than I expected but still good nonetheless. Unfortunately, I did not enjoy the Chicken Katsu. It was tough to bite into and too dry to swallow - I almost thought I was eating pork! It was bland too. Everything else was better. Overall, we enjoyed our meal from Happy Teriyaki and we were glad to have found this on the highway. Asian comfort food to make us feel “home” away from home.

Unfortunately we have experienced inconsistency and a decline in quality our last two visits. My husband always orders sweet and sour chicken, which was so over-fried tonight, he couldn't eat most of it. It was dry and very tough. Not the first time this has happened. Our Gyoza have also been over-fried a few times. Its so disappointing because we loved this place when they first opened. The staff are always friendly at least. Sad to say we won't be going back anymore.

My husband loved this place. Ok for a vegetarian-i have yet to try. But if you eat meat this is the place for you. The staff is so friendly and hard working. The inside of facility is fancy and immaculate. My husband loved the food. Kinda a good thing they are a ways out from us or we would be there all the time! Highly recommend this place. Stellar service and great food (according to husband)

Well, I honestly can't say enough about this little gem of a restaurant. We were really missing the sushi of south Snohomish county and the first time we tried this place we ordered a ton of nigiri, a couple rolls and some sides. After traveling home we realized it was super well packed and in perfect condition. The sushi itself is properly portioned, a nice thick slice of fish and a small ball of sticky sushi rice. No filling up on rice here. The rolls are also extremely well portioned and flavors are paired perfectly. Also, I will simply state that the staff is also awesome in their own right. Friendly, quick responses to questions and helpful with options. We've found our new favorite sushi spot. We'll see you guys soon!!
