L&D Teriyaki Express

This place is the closest you get to actual Hawaiian bbq. And the price is phenomenal.

This little place located on third Avenue is pretty decent. There prices are very reasonable, the portions as well. I always have the chicken bowl, and I order the platter when I share with my 2 toddlers. It’s always plenty for us 3. The service is hit and miss, it depends on the cashiers mood I guess. Sometimes I understand she’s very busy, but hey… It’s not the customers fault. But I’ll be coming back!

The prices are great and food is delicious! It’s my favorite spot for a quick meal. The staff is nice and they get your order out quick!

The food here does not disappoint. I don’t think there’s something I’ve tried that I didn’t like. I would say L&D is a fusion of L&L and Yoshinoya, but supremely better than both.
I’ve had the rice bowl with tender slices of steak. The bowl has the perfect amount of meat and rice and is my go-​to order. I recently tried one of their combo plates for the first time and I’ll def be trying more in my next visits. They are served with the right amount of food for the right price. I got the BBQ chicken and shrimp plate with a double side of mac salad. The BBQ chicken was very good and not overcooked. It came with a BBQ sauce with a thin soy-​sauce like consistency, but the chicken was flavorful enough to do without it. I didn’t feel guilty eating this, as the chicken was solid in quality without a bunch of fat. The shrimp, however, I could’ve done without (it’s like cheap Asian buffet level) but the mac salad was on point. I would opt for a combo without shrimp next time. Overall satisfied, stuffed, and had a bit leftover. Not bad for $ 7!
It’s comparable to — if not better than — L&L’s, but without the wait and without the spam masubi. It’s a big step up from Yoshinoya as well. Will return to try the chicken katsu!

This spot is real good! Really fresh & yummy!
Chicken is real breast no fat or dark meat at all!
Hella bomb! Coming bk for lunch soon! :)

It’s okay food.
Wasn’t impressed with the days old hard re-​heated grilled chicken served to me in the teriyaki bowl. The chicken was actually very poor-​quality and was highly questionable if I would get sick from a foodborne illness. It was rough and hard and no way cooked that day.
Steamed veggies tasted a little strange and had a sweet buttery flavor. Rice was standard.
The only thing I have ever been impressed with was the fried fish and would only consider ordering if I am local and stop by. Haven’t tried the fried shrimp yet, but if it is anywhere near the fried fish then I am game.
Looks clean in the dining area but is actually dirty and needs more daily cleaning. The kitchen is completely blocked off from view and only leaves one to wonder why?

I love coming here! I’ve lived in Chula Vista all my life and just found about this place when I was craving some Hawaiian but didn’t want l and l. The food is always delicious, always fresh tasting and I’ve never been let down one time. There was only one time where they got my order incorrect but I didn’t care because they gave me that played anyways including mine this place rocks I recommend it to anyone who likes good food. Just remember they’re closed on Sunday the day I wish they were never closed on LOL.

I enjoyed my BBQ pork plate a lot. Not only was it huge, the price was great. Good choice for lunch when you are in a bit of a food desert on third ave.
This place is conveniently located across my work so if lunch time hits, this is great, delicious, affordable option.
They have quite the menu, wide variety of choices and again, really good prices for the size.
Recommended.

Better food than Mrs. rice (no offense). Food was fresh and really tasty and a nice presentation. Prices are reasonable for a full meal. I recommend the chicken & shrimp hawaiian combo :) delicious !

Oh how I like this place the chicken teriyaki bowl and the steamed vegetables bowl. Omg and the egg rolls omg I can eat like 5 of those they are really good, they don’t taste nasty and like salty like at other places Many items are good and he lady there is really nice and friendly and always treating everyone with a smile. They all have good customer service! Definitely like coming here oh and they serve the food pretty fast and I like that

I accidentally found this place. I had stopped at a buisness next door and my so who loves katsu chicken saw the menu. The food looked and smelled delicious we ordered the BBQ chicken plate, and the teriyaki bowl no veggies. I also tried the chicken egg rolls. They are the crispiest freshest egg rolls I have ever had. Not to much ginger like you usually get. Hands down the best if you try nothing else give the egg rolls a try. The service was friendly and they don’t ever have a problem with special requests, extra sauce, no macaroni etc. definitely the best place to eat.

Katsu chicken is the best and their side macaroni salad is really good, customer service is also great

This is our type of comfort food! They have everything from L&L and Mrs. Rice’s without the price tag attached! Great fast and friendly service. Family owned! Love the teriyaki bowls and plates in either beef or chicken, but I prefer the chicken.

First time at this lil hole in the wall. Food was great, staff is awesome and the place is super clean.

Great place to go. I have been going here for years and they never disappoint. Highly recommend.

I got the bbq chicken and beef combo, it was delicious. The food was very good and fresh. I originally came to get the full bbq plate with bbq chicken, beef and short ribs but they no longer have the short ribs! I was so disappointed!

A unknown but VERY good hole in the wall place to eat! They have great friendly service the lady is always nice & the service is fast & food always fresh & good. They have a lot of loyal customers & I’m one of them. There mac salad & chicken grilled or breaded is good!
And there prices are very affordable! To me some of there food here is better then L&L BBQ! And cheaper but yet still good. It’s a hidden little gem in Chula Vista. You must try, it’s worth it.

Good customer service, not expensive, food is good, just need be a little more clean the tables …

First time here
It was good lunch
Even though I had received my order wrong I ordered chicken and I received the beef kinda disappointed when I got back at work I didn’t want to drive back again for 5 – 10 mins
But the beef was pretty good.

Great food, great price, family owned, and fresh.
you have to try.
