Went there yesterday and it was great haven't been for years. Will go again and try an order a different bowl next.

Love this place. Got to try a bulldog with froggy sauce. My go to items are the bravo bowl, pastrami hamburger, and the bull dog.

TLDR: Great hole in the wall, very kind people, either order the Yako Burger or get a bowl/plate. The Yakisito is underrated. The Yako burger is the best unique food item in a 5 mile radius. To see that this institution has anything less than 5 stars brings great sadness into my life. Yaki's has been a local mainstay for many years, I imagine that 90% of their business is teriyaki plates and bowls which they do very well and for a fair price. But I want to help put the word out there that there is something very special at Yaki's that many people don't see to know about, and it's the reason I've been coming my entire life: The Yako burger When family and friends come to town, they ask me "so what's a good local spot? Any cool unique food items I should know about" (verbatim). I tell them about the Yako. An item that, while on paper sounds like the bad dream of a 7th grader, never ever ceases to satisfy. A giant burger with no frills. Bun, raw section of onion, a pile of too good to be true chicken (thigh), cheese (this is where people make a face but it's actually a perfect choice), patty, and all covered some special sauce. The burger is very tasty, filling, and reasonably priced. Cant go wrong with any bowl/plate either The ladies behind the counter are beautiful people, extremely kind, and wonderful cooks. Owner is cool guy, met him once, he definitely cares. Critical section: the non yako burgers are alright, nothing to call home about. They should be pushing the Yako the way they push the bulldog. The bull dog could be good in theory but both the cheese and dog taste like 1000x markup. The bulldog is, aesthetically, at best, a guilty pleasure. The Yako in contrast, is hearty, sturdy, a *sandwich*, something someone can believe in. Also, eventually someone should make the door handle on the men's restroom match that on the women's, so they're both lever style. So when I go to wash my post-yako hands I can open the door easily.

Such a good quick bite & the prices are like we are still in 2016. Everyone has told me they love this place as it is not a "rip off" like other food spots. I agree! Did not feel bloated after either which is amazing for a big meal. I would say if they updated the seating it may be a very enjoyable spot for outdoor dining but I believe most take this meal quick to go.

I know I'm back in my comfort home zone once I arrive at Yaki's. Delicious comfort food that's overall healthy, give or take a bit (the bull dog isn't health food, per se). *Tip: add carrot and broccoli veggies - and ask they be par boiled or else overly cooked and way too soft.

This afternoon after taking my son to do some training in the city of Montrose, we had the opportunity to visit. Once again, you guys delivered with fantastic steak and chicken bowl and a bulldog. Plenty of chicken and steak on the combo bowl cooked to perfection. The classic bulldog, which is a hotdog, wrapped and cheese, and eggroll really hit the spot. My only gripe is that it is way too stuffy inside this place, if you're not gonna run the air conditioner, you should at least have some sort of other types of circulation. The outdated overhead fans makes it torture not only for your guests before your employees as well. I'll still return because the food is really good.
