The Made In Japan Teriyaki Experience meal is pure Japanese simplicity based on teppanyaki-style preparation (which means cooking on a steel grill). We stir-fry fresh vegetables and bean sprouts in a flash as well as your choice of chicken, beef, shrimp or tofu. You can choose from Japanese-style yakisoba noodles or Japanese steamed rice and then we top it all with our famous teriyaki sauce.
By cooking with only water, not oil, we minimize fat and calories and maximize the flavor! The results are great tasting meals that are delicious and well-balanced.
Many locations also offer a selection of hand-rolled sushi prepared fresh daily, tasty Gyoza dumplings, and satisfying Noodle Bowls.


In the 80’s when most Canadian food court locations were serving up the usual burgers, fries and pizza, Lou Donato had something more exotic in mind. Having established an Italian food franchise in 1981, he knew that food court patrons were ready for something radically new. And he looked East for inspiration.
In April 1986 Made in Japan Teriyaki Experience opened in Promenade Mall in Toronto with a sizzling show at the grill that included each meal prepared fast and fresh for each customer. Customer response was immediate. Clearly, Canadians were ready for a delicious and nutritious new taste experience.
Almost 20 years later, we serve nearly 4 million meals annually at over 100 locations worldwide in shopping mall food courts, street fronts, universities, hospitals, and theme parks. And Asian-inspired food… well, it’s the hottest new menu trend!
