The 121-year-old Japanese QSR, Yoshinoya, has opened the first of three planned San Diego-area restaurants this year in City Heights in Greater San Diego. The El Cajon Boulevard store is open daily 9 a.m. to midnight, a news release said.
The brand said its traditional Japanese-inspired menu includes dishes like Teriyaki Chicken, Habanero Chicken, Grilled Tilapia and Sweet Chili Shrimp, as well as some new items like grilled Japanese Yakisoba Noodles, Orange Chicken and grilled Steak & Peppers.
"We really want to have a neighborhood location where people can eat fresh, flavorful meals many times a week, that doesn't break the bank," Director of Operations Mario Garcia, said in the release. "The feeling of this restaurant is tied to the vibe of this neighborhood — refreshed, revitalized and bursting with energy."
Yoshinoya has 2,000-plus locations in Japan, Mainland China, Shanghai, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Singapore, Philippines and the United States.
