Reviews for JOY BOX RESTAURANT in Bellevue, WA
I wouldn?t recommend eating here. I ordered pickup for spicy teriyaki chicken. I got home and ate around half my order before I... felt something poking the inside of my mouth. I pulled a long piece of steel wool from the inside of my mouth!!!! So gross!! Ijust couldn?t get over how a piece of dish cleaning wear ended up in my food. I wanted to throw up. I immediately threw all myfood away. I personally won?t be returning. I feel like there are many sanitary issues going on if I?m getting dirty dishcleaning wear in my food. I debated on writing this review for over a week because I want to support this business. They reallydo give good portion sizes for the price you pay. But if you?re looking for a place where you?re expecting sanitary food, thenyou should probably consider another place. Read more
I ordered the spicy pork bento box. It came with spicy pork, rice, 2 chicken gyoza, 1 chicken spring roll, yakisoba and... salad. The taste of the food was average at best. The pork was not tender, had a rubbery quality and smelled funny. The chickengyoza and roll were flavorless. The only good thing was the salad, it was fresh. This is a lot of food for 14$ but wouldn?torder again. Read more
I got a bibimbop to go today but HOLY MOLY this was almost enough oil to kill a person! Even after transferring it to another... bowl, oil was seeping out of the rice. I've been eating bibimbap for 10 years and people never use this much oil for the dish.Funny thing is one of my friends also ordered bibimbap from this place before and she was also alarmed by the amount used init. If this is your first time trying this dish, do not order from this place because this will definitely ruin your impressionof bibimbap. Read more
We got chicken and gyoza and katsu chicken to go. You do have the option to eat inside if desired though they?ve only left few... tables (Covid times). The food was ready pretty quickly and served in a nice box. We also liked the taste and we?re pretty fullafter eating so good quantity as well. Read more
I love this spot! Delicious teriyaki, delicious short ribs, and super hot bibimbap, best with their garlic chili oil. Will... definitely return soon. Read more
Love the name, really want to like the food. The food was just ok. The chicken katsu was good. The bento box was ok. Very... confusing menu since the pictures show bento comes with sushi but it does not you will get the yakisoba instead. The workersare nice. The place looks nice. Plenty of parking spaces. Located a block behind crossroad mall. Read more
I went to this restaurant before all the changes and am pleased to see huge improvements in everything from the decor to the... menu choices and the quality of the food. Those who were big fans of the old version, have no fear! Everything you loved aboutit is still here but better. I ordered the Chicken Bibimbap and my husband got Tonkotsu Ramen; both weren?t previously optionson the menu so we decided to try them out. Additionally, my husband was still curious to try out the new Chicken Katsu recipebut didn?t want too much to eat; they were very accommodating and gave us a smaller side portion to try out. Everything was fresh and the taste was well-rounded. Some people sitting next to us got the bento box and I took an impressed peek at theirhuge portion sizes and food variety. I?ll know what to try next time! I highly recommend this place for those who want a quickbut high quality meal with fantastic pricing for big portions (and try dining in to soak in the new, hip vibes). Also worthy ofnote: they have tofu alternatives for every dish, so there?s definitely something for everyone here! Read more
Love the fried rice here! It always tastes fresh and delicious! Easily the best egg rolls I?ve had in the area too. I?ve never... had a problem with their food. Read more
