Hello, I visited Yoshinoya today just to use the restroom. As a security guard for the nearby Rite Aid that's now permanently closed, I no longer have access to a restroom in that building, leaving this restaurant as my only nearby option. I typically only stop in to use the facilities or occasionally buy a soda. From the start, the Hispanic female manager was rude. When I politely asked to use the restroom and explained my situation—including how an employee let me use it yesterday after recognizing me as the security guard next door—she ignored me and simply said "no." I wasn't causing any trouble and was respectful throughout. At that point, one of the customers spoke up and urged her to let me use it, but she still refused.

Limited parking. Big dining area. Guy taking orders was excellent. Forks they give are garbage. They don't give you straws for your drink. And they definitely skimp on product compared to other yoshinoya's. Barely any rice. And rice I did get was soggy and greasy! Will not be back to this location

Talk about shrinkflation! Yoshinoya is no longer at the caliber it used to be. How is this a large?! Hardly any protein and a bunch of rice. They’ve reduced their packaging down to a paper cardboard tray which soaks through. No longer are the days of the orange branded box which was also shrinking in size before this cardboard box replacement. And on top of that they’re going to charge $11 for that and get the order incomplete by not providing condiments as requested in the order?? Very disappointing.

My kids are the ones who like to come here so I let them rate it. The customers service is pleasant, the restrooms were clean, music is ok, and the food good. Reasonably priced for $10 two large bowls.
