Great spot for tasty teriyaki and quick service! I really enjoyed my chicken teriyaki plate, and the leftovers tasted good for dinner as well. Comparison of chicken teriyaki plate here vs. Teriyaki Madness which is down the street: - $4 cheaper, but there is less food, so about the same value - Chicken is more dry - Teriyaki sauce is more liquidy than viscous - Salad dressing is already poured onto the salad for you This was a small and cute spot with a lot of natural light to sit and enjoy your meal :)

After a visit to Urgent Care at Kaiser, this stop was close and convenient. It's right next door to the far north wing of the Kaiser complex, where the eye care building is. The food was great, warm and tasty. I appreciated finding this spot after a rough

This is what a good teriyaki restaurant is like! It has all the classic teriyaki chicken and yakisoba noodles. The noodles are nice and chewy without it being overcooked or sat around took long. I ordered the vegetable and tofu one and it came with standard vegetables and a nice amount of fried tofu. The service was good, I ordered for it to go and it was pretty quick and the owner was friendly. The place itself was clean and organized.

Just a little space perfect for neighborhood teriyaki. Made to order, got the spicy chicken teriyaki and was very pleased at the level of spice. Flavor was there and I was absolutely stuffed after finishing it all. Found my new go to teriyaki joint.

Had the C-5 which is one of their most popular plates. The chicken, rice, potstickers was amazing. The guy was super nice and for $9 you get a big bowl of everything plus any soda. Super convenient and super sweet people, and the food is amazing!

Delicious tempura was very tasty and satisfying. It came with large cuts of vegetables and shrimp. Fast, friendly, and fresh. It doesn't get much better than that! I wish they were open more often.

Very good price and a quality meal next to GroupHealth. I stopped by Moli late at night and ordered Shrimp Katsu with Chicken Teriyaki Combo Bento set. The cost came to just ~$8. They also have different combos of basic teriyaki/bento stuff like Gyoza, Yakisoba, beef teriyaki, chicken teriyaki, etc. What I like about this place was that they actually cooked my food fresh as soon as I ordered. I knew because I actually had to wait about 10 min before I got my food (which I'm not complaining at all!). Maybe this is because I stopped by late at night so they didn't have any more leftover (typically at these types of bento places I sort of expect the food to be pre-cooked/made). My food was hot (not at a room temperature), so I liked it a lot. The vegetables that made up the salad was fresh and satisfying. I also noticed their rice was not the typical Japanese, stickier round rice but rather the oval one (more of a southeast Asian type of rice). This is the type of rice I enjoy eating the most as well. Moli Bento is clean and organized and not just your typical hectic, bento place (well, I never noticed how busy it is during day time anyway). I will definitely stop by here for a quick meal again.
