Teriyaki Boy


My car was in the shop getting worked on and I was left a hungry pedestrian in the Draper Peaks area. In a sea of chain restaurants and clothing stores, I found Teriyaki Boy, a recently opened Asian grill express located at 185 E 12300 S in Draper.

The Atmosphere 3/5

It could be because they're new or perhaps they're more focused on the food than anything, but they have all of one decoration in the entire restaurant: a single poster advertising their party platter. 

The Service 5/5

I was the only customer throughout my visit (which made taking these pictures rather awkward) and they rolled out the red carpet for me. I was walked through the menu and offered suggestions. Despite being an express grill, they have extremely fresh sushi, a large variety of Bento boxes, and here's the best part. Every single meal is made to order from scratch right in front of you. I had a great time. They weren't quite as fast as a quick service place like Panda, but I had no problem waiting.

The Food 5/5

I jumped into the Asian spirit of it all and ordered a melon-flavored Ramune. If you've never had one, they're fascinating. The plate I landed on was the Chicken and Beef which came heaped upon masterfully grilled vegetables and a giant serving of white rice. $9 and I was happily full and satisfied for the rest of the day. 

Conclusion

I can confidently recommend this little restaurant to anyone shopping in the area. The food was great and the service was wonderful.
