About Yoshinoya: Welcome to the Yoshinoya America Inc. website, where the unique Japanese fusion restaurant meets the American culture. Yoshinoya’s fresh, wholesome Japanese-style cuisine is the essence of our menu. Dating back to the first Yoshinoya restaurant in 1899 in Tokyo, Japan, we introduced our signature Beef Bowl® and rapidly expanded as a global leader in the quick service restaurant. In 1979, we brought this unique fresh and healthy tradition to the United States, opening our first Yoshinoya restaurant in Los Angeles. Now we’ve expanded across California and to New York, Las Vegas and Arizona and continue to expand throughout the United States. The menu is based on fresh ingredients featured in a variety of rice bowls including our signature Beef Bowl®, Chicken Bowl, Combo Bowl and other varieties of Japanese flavorful cuisine. Our authentic, yet affordable everyday priced Japanese–style menu has gained a loyal following that spans around the world. We are honored to serve customers at over 1,400 international locations.
