Latin – Korean Fusion Restaurant in Bothell, WA
Amazing food and good people this place is a vibe and a half
Awesome neighborhood spot, outstanding food, busy but quiet. The Lee family is awesome!
Good portions and delicious!
Their house spicy chicken is da bomb
I have been here a few times after they were recommended by a coworker. SO good every time! Clean space, friendly staff… and food I now crave. Everything tastes so fresh and has tons of flavor. You must go and try at least once, but I can almost guarantee it won’t only be once.
Amazing food and even better vibes!
Crispy chicken is really tender and juicy, probably the best I have had in months. Everything is just amazing! Anthony brings a highlight to our visit and we will definitely come back for the great food and super friendly staffs!
Super yummy food and friendly staff!!
Great customer service and food. It has a cool Brazilian, tropical theme in the food and decor. I loved the chicken and egg roll teriyaki. And they were playing SZA! I will return 🤪😇🍲
I come here usually once a week and i loved their food so much with pico the gaio together. The staff were on top of it.
Go here for when I have my kid for the week, and when I don’t have him (co-parenting with the ex).
So happy to see this family back in business. Hands down favorite spicy chicken teriyaki.
My 1st time eating there. I had the salmon poke and kalbi with fried rice. Delicious. Cool interior with a comfy feel. Service was amazing and they had a nice drink selection. I will def be back for more!
Delicious, cute, and great energy!
This is one of my favorite spots in Bothell. The “special” is a must, and also the wings!
10/10 recommend. What a cool place. Delicious food with a fusion twist. I had the beef bulgogi bowl, with a side of the pico. The (breathtakingly gorgeous btw) gal that took my order, told me the way to do it is to mix the pico with your rice and pour the cilantro dressing on the top… so freaking good! I will be back to try more!
05/10/2023: Came back for my second visit, and this time, it was even better. Probably what I chose (the pulled pork), which is one of my favorite dishes. Ta Joia does it perfectly. It is cooked in a soy based sauce, but the soy is not overpowering, like it can be. It offers just enough flavor and saltiness. Paired with the rice and pico, and topped with the cilantro crema (I’m guessing this is what it’s called. I should prob find out), it was perfection.
Also, I was more than a little surprised when the hostess (again, could be wrong on what you call the person who takes your order but also does the food prep? Anyways 🤷🏼♀️….) remembered my name! She either has an impeccable memory, or she saw this review. Either way, I was impressed and felt valued!
Can’t wait to try everything on the menu. I read a great article on the history of the restaurant and the owners story. Search it on Google. Definitely an inspiring story that pulls at the heart strings.
Wow! This little place is a hidden treasure where you feel like family when you walk in. We walked in during a lunch rush and we were greeted with a sincere “welcome in” and a smile by a young man who continued to have a smile on his face throughout our visit! This family owned gem made one of the best “fast food” meals I have ever had where they did not skimp on the details and passion. The perfectly grilled meat was met by some spice, and topped off with the freshness of some pico with a side of a cilantro, lime, jalapeño dressing that was divine. This will absolutely be a go to for a healthy and quick lunch or dinner.
The BEST spicy chicken teriyaki!! This family owned and ran restaurant is my go to when I’m in the Bothell area. From the friendly service to the welcoming environment to the delicious food. You have to eat here!
The food here is delicious. Even the tofu is cooked crispy and tastes great! The service is very friendly, but unfortunately the young ladies are fans of Jake Gyllenhall, just so you know what kind of people you are dealing with.
Very welcoming and the food is solid. It has a small business vibe (which it is) that I really enjoy. Good ambiance. Spicy chicken had a good flavor especially with the cilantro sauce and pico de gallo. They were out of the bibimbap and japchae, my first and second choices bit the stir fry and tofu was still good. It was a healthy option for this area.
Simply excellent – the food, time to table, flavour, service. This place is a gem.
The best place to eat in Washington. It’s that good.
Great fresh food in an informal setting! Perfect for business lunches or dinners. Very friendly staff and quick service. Meat was very tasty and flavorful.
They do have some veg options available – mostly tofu.
Overall great experience
Truly excellent! Especially the staff!!
Got referred here by a friend and was not disappointed!
Food was amazing, and there is a lot to choose from as well as a pretty customizable menu for any preferences or restrictions. Everything was fresh and tasted great. Portion sizes were also great! You absolutely get your money’s worth.
Most importantly, the staff were extremely kind and attentive. I’ve been a handful of times now and regardless if there is a full house, or only a few customers, I have ALWAYS been attended to and checked on by either the managers or the crew to make sure I was good and that I was enjoying the food.
Absolutely a must try if you are in the area and if you aren’t, it is definitely worth a trip!
This place never disappoints. Fresh healthy tasty food with lot of vegetarian /vegan options. Staff is awesome, friendly and hardworking!
Amazing food, amazing atmosphere, kind staff for a reasonable price. The hype is real, this place is amazing.
The best!!! I think I’ve had every dish and you can’t go wrong with any thing in the menu, but my wife’s favorite is the spicy teriyaki and the japchae! To the Lee family, thank you for your awesome food. You are the pride of Bothell!
Fantastic food and great vibes. Truly an uplifting experience. Love it!
This place is the spot! I can’t get this type of teriyaki anywhere. My go-to, is the spicy chicken with pico de gallo and gyoza. Hands down the best I’ve ever had. Do yourself a favor and go eat here, you’ll have a new favorite place to eat. I guarantee it.
Wow, the food and atmosphere here is amazing! I can’t wait to come back and try everything on the menu.
The food is so fresh, well seasoned and prepared. The chicken and shrimp are grilled and the pico really brings it all together. You can sub rice for fried rice with an up charge. The wings were crispy and the breading was seasoned well with herbs. The green sauce with them was good. Food comes out quick too.
House spicy chicken is the best teriyaki in the region by far.
Had been wanting to try this place for a year, finally did. Wish I hadn’t waited!!! Everything on the menu looks amazing, I got the spicy chicken and salmon poke, they were soooo good. Very reasonable pricing and great portions! Can’t wait to go back and try more!
I absolutely love everything about this place! My favorite dish is the kalbi, it always hits the spot!!
Food tastes really good and everything is fresh. I love the spicy chicken dinner item.
Long black hair my food immediately grossed me out.
I enjoyed their food and had a great time conversing with Vivian (the owner’s daughter). After a full day of park activities with our two dogs, Haru and Hana… a great food is a must! This place had amazing food as well as service. What more do you need? I’ll return without a doubt, and you must taste the brisket with fried rice. The slow-cooked brisket has a sweet and tangy flavor. i don’t typically like asian fusion food, but this place definitely impressed me. Anyway, I’m thankful. Peter
This place is run like a Michelin star restaurant!! Clean. Good food. Great service!!
At first, when I saw the reviews, I felt locals were exaggerating. But it turns out that this is one of the best Korean food I have ever tasted. You won’t be disappointed with anything they serve here, from the fried rice to the makku rice beer. Come hungry and leave satisfied.
I was expecting good things from this place based off the reviews. The fried rice was really bland, almost tasted like regular rice. The spicy pork was good, but it was mostly lettuce. The best thing I tried was the feijoada and that was actually really good 👍🏾
The service was extremely fast and the staff was really kind.
I go for the House Chicken and stay for the Creamy Cilantro sauce.
Best Teriyaki in town.
This was my first time there, ordering takeout for my family. Staff was super friendly and accommodating. Food was so yummy fresh perfectly cooked plenty of flavor! Will definitely be on my list of restaurants to go to when I’m in Bothell!
Gave this place a try, based off other reviews, highly over rated. Biggest problem, dinner prices ($16) with lunchtime quantity. Was expecting a dinner plate and recieved a shallow lunch bowl. Other places would charge about $10 for this quanity.
Delicious, with great portions and excellent pricing.
I got their signature fried rice and crispy chicken. Man I am without words like the amount of food and quality was insane. Whenever I’m in Bothell imma come here for dinner!
The best food ever!!! You guys should try the sausage, feijoada and the pico! Delightful! I love this infusion of Brazil with the Asian food! Just makes me feel closer to home♥️♥️
Why is my food so good? Is it a secret sauce? Is it the way they perfectly cooked their meat? Is it the friendly faces? Is everything made with love? This place is so amazing that it makes me sad that I live so far away. Everyone needs to do themselves a favor and try this place!
So good! Perfect char on the teriyaki
Dietary restrictions: They worked with me on my food allergies and had delicious basic dishes I could eat. I’m dairy free, gluten free (not celiac), and can’t eat nightshades.
Wow! Just wow!!! Amazing food and service. The attention to detail on your food is really great. This is a must try if you’re in the area. But if you’re not in the area, just make it a fun food trip! It’s well worth it!
Delicious, nutritious, well priced and fast. Favorite new spot in the area!
Overall the food is great, tasty, and cooked well. But I do have one big complaint which might be the reason they lose me as a customer. They are CHEAP! I ask for extra sauce multiple times on multiple occasions and it’s as if I am ripping their hearts out. Moody facial expressions and all. Or better yet, they insist on putting the sauce on my food for me! I ask for a box, and they give me a wimpy little box that I can’t even put my food inside? If I pay for a service I expect it be delivered and not me being scammed out of what I pay for. Just an honest customer willing to help a business out with constructive feedback!
The Bimbibap was pretty good although it lacked the crust you’ll see in stone pot bimbibap. The tofu bimbibap is a extra $3, I wish they told me that ahead of time. However, the tofu was very tasty. Hot and crispy on the outside but fluffy and soft on the inside.
SOOO good. Went yesterday for a quick late lunch and I want to come back again already. The flavor combinations work so well together.
Foods typically great. Careful if there busy.
Good food, lunch special is a decent plate for the price. Anthony is a rockstar. Superior customer service. The only downside was that there was a bland and borderline dismissive young (pretty) Asian gal that killed the mood. But besides that, I’d recommend this place
To be honest this is the BEST teriyaki I’ve had maybe ever! They cook on a open flame which give the chicken that tasty char. The spicy chicken was what was recommended for my first time and boy it didn’t disappoint. They told me to add the white sauce and pico de gallo to the rice. *FIRE* this combo makes you do a little food dance in your seat. As I said today was my first time loved it so much I asked my wife to bring me back an order for dinner tomorrow. Check these guys out if you’ve been on the fence. You won’t regret it.
Oh man, what to say. First, if you haven’t been, run here now and get the dry seasoning chicken teriyaki, and if you’re a fan of cilantro, you must and I mean must have the cilantro sauce. Both the salad and Pico are great sides, but get the Pico and top it with some sauce. The staff here is how every and I MEAN every restaurant should be, friendly and kind, they make you feel like a friend and you know they appreciate your business. Keep up the great work and amazing food team at Ta Joia!
