Fast-food chain serves traditional Japanese cuisine including beef and teriyaki bowls at affordable prices.

In Short
Since 1979, the chain restaurant continues to serve beef and chicken bowls as well as combo platters priced between $4 and $6. With more than 80 stores in California and New York, a few locations are open 24 hours and most offer drive-through windows. Guests can choose from soups (including clam chowder) and salads (chicken salad, garden and macaroni). The eatery also features dessert items including caramel flan and cheesecake, to name a few. With fast, friendly service and a fresh, healthy alternative to traditional fast foods, it's no wonder guests keep coming back.

best japanese market in boston

This place is much better-stocked with Japanese groceries than Kotobukiya. The place looks old and beaten down from the outside, but don't let that fool you. They have everything Kotobukiya has and a lot more (except kotobukiya has more japanese mags), including a larger variety of instant soups/noodles, snacks and frozen croquettes/shumais.

• Pros: great variety of food, well-stocked
• Cons: , central sq location
