Keoki's Oriental Restaurant - Yakima

Even though we have lived in Yakima for a few years, we had never gone to this restaurant until this evening. We thought the food was very good. We ate every bit of it. The owner/manager, Buck, who was born in China, is absolutely delightful. He explained very clearly and thoroughly every menu item about which we asked. He is the chef and does most everything else. His engaging chatter made us feel very much at home. I am sure that we will come back fairly regularly.

Please whatever you read do not eat here. We were the only people there at dinner time, the BBQ pork was discolored and had turned. My husband ordered an egg roll which the server/owner/cook said was “fresh but only takes two minutes” when he brought it out one minute later it was frozen in the middle. We told the fella when we got up to leave about the issues (and left all of the food on the table)and he charged us $21 and told us cocktail shirmp are cold and it’s the freshest best bbq pork in town. I have NEVER left a restaurant like that before. I was willing to over look the dirty dishes (lipstick on the glasses) but rotten and freezing food is too much! Someone is going to get sick.

This place has the most friendly service in the city. The food is delicious and fresh, and you will always be entertained by the high service of the owner. I have the house Chow mine today, and it had shrimps and grill pig and chicken and regular pigs and ham and it was delicious. It came with a bowl of pork and a salad while I waited for the main dish to be cooked. This place is much more busy at dinner time, but if you get a nice relaxed lunch at a great price to Keoki.

Amazing! My fiancée and I were the only people in there at 4:10 when they just got up. The manager was so nice and honest, was very interested in how I had taught myself to eat with chipsticks that I found funny and cute. Enjoyable experience and the food he cooked was delicious! It wasn't too expensive. Perfect for a date we cannot wait to get back to the Hibachi experience during their peak times.

I've eaten my whole life here. The menu and food have never changed. Buck the owner works his dick to offer high quality food and a family-friendly, fun experience. Chicken Yakitori is all I've ever had and it's delicious, how is the side salad with housewear. We often get out, plus a side order of the house dressing.
