I hate when a restaurant doesn't have an online menu and it's not a chain that has typical food. I like to figure out what I'm getting before I get there since it takes me forever. So I uploaded pictures if their drive-thru menu for everyone.
Food is good. Friendly staff. Quick!! Interesting drive-thru method but it works.
JFC is small but tasty.
I was craving some Kokoro, so decided to give this place a chance since it is much closer. It's not the same quality as Kokoro, but is an alright alternative to avoid the drive for Aurora folks.
The beef in their combination bowl was very flavorful, but it was a bit fatty for my tastes. The inari roll was nothing special, but was not a disappointment. However, the beef udon soup was excellent. And the ginger condiment was fabulous!
If I could go 2 1/2 stars I would, but I'll round up to 3 just because I sorta feel bad for them :p haha. First off, this place needs some SERIOUS renovation. The exterior looks like it's starting to fall apart, and the inside, well it's not too bad I suppose. The food was okay, the service was okay, I would be way more impressed if they were clean!! It's kinda gross, but hey my family was hungry so we paid more attention to the food rather than the cleanliness. On that note, I got the beef noodle bowl. Pretty good!! The beef was really tender, sliced thin and juicy!! Served on top of some nice fat white noodles. (I think they were udon) I agree with another review that the food is sorta warm when served. Meaning? It might not be so fresh. Oh well. What can you do? I'll say this is a good place to get something quick and tasty but not if you want super high quality Asian food/terriyaki.
P.S. When we were ordering at the counter, (we were the only ones, hmmm business is dead? It was lunch hour lol) I could hear some lady really hacking up a storm. I couldn't tell if she was in the kitchen or in the nearby bathroom. Let's just say I lost my appetite for a second ;]
Food/Quality:
I tried the beef bowl here and there really isn't much good to say about it. The food that my boyfriend and I both received was barely warm, and we ate it there in the dining area!
Atmosphere:
The dining area was not heated very well for a winter day, and there were few customers inside.
Service:
Even though we were the only ones at the counter when we ordered, we still had to wait a while to order as the same person taking orders at the drive-thru helped us with our order. The staff didn't have a sense of urgency to take our order...they must have better business at the drive-thru.
Value:
For the price of the bowls, there wasn't much food included, at least not when I compare it to places like Yoshinoya.
Overall, if I was hungry for something quick and inexpensive I might stop here, but there are other options.
No it's not clean, no it's not cool, no it doesn't have a nice dining room. Â So why is everyone still going? Consistently fast, cheap, edible food. Â When I lived in Aurora I went often, usually through the drive thru. Â If you can eat with chop sticks while driving it's great on the go. Â It's one of my guilty pleasures, (don't tell anyone I'm a regular.) Â Yes, it's a dive, but it's so yummy!
Review Source:I felt a lil nostalgic, so thought I'd give a shout out to colorado. :) This place was THE hang out place for lunch during high school (wow.... long time ago). I used to pack 10 friends from creek in my car and drive all the way to aurora to kick it with my peeps at lunch....
i've been recently been craving their beef noodle bowls... mmmm.... and the jfc (japanese fried chicken)... i had that almost everyday! sooooo good. i heard it's not so good anymore, but it sure does bring back A LOT of memories!!
