Really disgusting tofu and vinegar obsession

The tofu I had here tasted like it was going bad. If you've ever had old tofu, it becomes sour. That's what the inside of the tofu tasted like.

The teriyaki sauce was way too sweet.

Mac salad seemed to have a bunch of vinegar in it.

I'm Japanese and grew up in Hawaii. Also lived here in the PNW having teriyaki for decades and this place is really gross. So disappointing.

Cons: Tofu is old, Sauce is too sweet, Mac salad tastes like vinegar

Hit the spot!

I got the tofu bowl - the tofu was battered and crispy in the best possible way! It came with bok choy that was yummy too. On top of brown rice (white was an option too) and covered in delicious teriyaki sauce. I didn’t ask if any of the sides were vegan. That one delicious menu item was all I needed!

It did come with extra sauce and I did dump the whole container on my bowl before even taking a bite (because sauce!) it was too much. Next time I will use at least a tiny bit of restraint.

Easy go-to

Our go-to is the Sesame Tofu and Cauliflower. Always fried perfectly and the glaze/sauce is flavorful with the perfect amount of spice to it, just a little bit. My partner and I will grab Grillbird roughly every other month and will share the dish between the both of us. We’ll make the side that comes with the Sesame Tofu and Cauliflower all cabbage and add the vegan dressing.

Worst tofu

I had their tofu almost 2 months ago and it still haunts me. It was not pressed or seasoned and it was barely cooked with a sour aftertaste. I’ve been veg for 12 years and it’s the worst tofu I’ve ever had.

Pros: Spring rolls are good.

Cons: Bad tofu
