While Mike was playing professional football, teriyaki became one of those rare meals that actually worked for an athlete’s schedule.
It was fast enough for a busy day, clean enough to eat before practice, and packed with protein to sustain intense training. When Mike and Tiffany came back to Utah, they couldn’t find anything like it.
Fast food was everywhere, but fresh, healthy, made-to-order food was hard to come by.
So in 1997, they built it themselves. Grilled protein, fresh-cut vegetables, house-made sauces, and bowls built for people who want something better than greasy, deep-fried fast food.
Nearly 30 years later, that’s still their promise: fresh, healthy food with the protein to keep you going, and the delicious flavor to keep you coming back.

Before protein became a trend, it was already the foundation that made Teriyaki Grill different.
Our bowls have always been built around grilled hand-trimmed protein options, giving customers a meal that feels fresh, filling, and substantial without relying on greasy or deep-fried foods.
With options like chicken, steak, shrimp, and salmon, customers can get the kind of protein-packed meal people are looking for.
Our vegetables start with trusted produce partners who source from farms, then we do the work in our own kitchens to make sure that freshness carries through.
That means fresh vegetables hand-cut every morning, meats carefully trimmed, and bowls prepared with the kind of care people can taste.
From the farm to the cutting board to the grill, freshness has always been part of what makes Teriyaki Grill different.
The Tiff Salad started as Tiffany’s own favorite mix of fresh ingredients, tossed together into one bowl the way she liked it best. Over time, customers caught on, and what started as a personal favorite became one of Teriyaki Grill’s most popular salads.
