What to Eat at Teriyaki Boy & Sizzlin Steak How we choose these items We use AI to find praise and criticism of specific foods and drinks in a selection of Google reviews. For Teriyaki Boy & Sizzlin Steak, this list is based on 50 reviews, not every review of the restaurant. The score is positive reviews minus negative reviews. For example, two positive reviews and one negative review give +1. Each review counts once per item; neutral comments do not change the score. A zero score is not a positive recommendation. “Only neutral feedback” means there are no positive or negative votes. “Mixed feedback” means equal numbers of positive and negative votes. The quotes are examples of what people said, not every comment we counted. We use different reviews where we can. We normally show up to 10 foods and 5 drinks with non-negative scores. Items with the same score stay together. If a tied group would go past the limit, that group and the lower non-negative scores go into Honorable mentions. If an overflowing positive top tie would leave the list empty, we show up to 10 items from that tie and keep the rest in Honorable mentions. Foods and drinks with a negative score are under What to Avoid. Use this as a guide to what reviewers liked, not a guarantee that you will like it too.
Foods and drinks mentioned in reviews of Teriyaki Boy & Sizzlin Steak, ranked by positive reviews minus negative reviews. Zero-score items have no net positive feedback; their labels distinguish neutral-only from mixed feedback.

Tips for a Better Visit
Avoid peaks. Try visiting outside weekend rushes if you want smoother service and quicker bill handling.
Confirm sides. Ask about side availability before ordering; one salmon teriyaki diner learned late that only rice was available.
Choose beef. If you want beef, consider the beef bento box instead of the steak, which one reviewer rated much more favourably.
Ask recommendations. The menu can be difficult to navigate on a first visit, so ask the server for guidance before choosing.
Check setup. For groups, ask for enough plates when you sit down; one diner had to request them while food was already arriving.

Common Concerns

Dry salmon
A salmon teriyaki order was described as too dry, with a long wait and late notice about the unavailable mashed potatoes.
Cold food
One diner received cold beef steak and mashed potato, despite finding the beef bulgogi tasty.
Cleanliness concern
A serious hygiene complaint reported a used toothpick in the utensils container during one visit.

The Bottom Line
Teriyaki Boy & Sizzlin Steak is a Japanese restaurant in Port Saeed that combines teriyaki dishes, ramen, sushi and sizzling steak plates. It is worth considering for familiar comfort food rather than highly formal Japanese dining: regulars specifically return for the Chicken Teriyaki Donburi and Tori Ramen, while the Seafood Laksa Ramen and beef bulgogi also receive strong mentions. The combo for two includes rice, soup, iced tea and dessert, and several diners describe the portions and prices as reasonable.
The experience is not perfectly even. California Rolls and Sushi were called fresh, and gyoza, takoyaki and a sizzling brownie also had fans, but reviews report dry salmon, cold steak with mashed potato and inconsistent steak cooking. One diner said a beef bento box was a better choice than the steak.
The langka turon with vanilla ice cream is another distinctive order, served on a sizzling plate. Service is often warm and helpful, especially when staff explain the menu, but weekend crowds can slow service and bill collection. Check side availability before ordering, and consider visiting outside peak weekend periods.
A separate complaint about a used toothpick in the utensils container is worth keeping in mind when checking the table setup.
