Lunch
Lin L.

Took my man for lunch after we went to watch Avatar this morning. The food is good, ambiance is chill, place is clean and you pick your own seat, choose what you want and order and pay at the front. Food was served timely. We order 2 bento box, spicy shrimp for one and the other a combo with calamari and beef, delicious. The sushi was 50% off - volcano think it was unagi and such, yummy. Would we go again? Yes. However, hear me out Bento Box, in Gordon Ramsey words, "just too many things to choose from..." Go here if you need a quick delicious sushi, bento, ramen fix.

Bad sushi (California roll, fried California roll & americano, all topped with spicy mayo and tempura flakes).
Andzelika S.

Worst sushi ever. Wish I could get my money back. I couldn't eat it. The Salmon tasted foul and rice like plastic. Too bad cause the ambiance looks nice and the people working there seemed nice too. Sorry I don't like leaving bad reviews, but this was unfortunately not edible.

I have visited Bento Box multiple times in the past, and it has always been one of my favorite restaurants. Unfortunately, I had a very disappointing experience this past weekend. I ordered three sushi rolls and shrimp tempura for takeout. When I got home and began eating, I immediately noticed a strong fishy odor and an unusual texture in the sushi rolls. Upon closer inspection, I found that the tempura inside the rolls was extremely hard, discolored, and almost gray in appearance. I called the restaurant to report the issue, and the manager offered only to remake the sushi. However, by that point I was already 30 minutes away and was unable to return to the restaurant. I was told that my contact information would be passed along to upper management so the issue could be resolved, but I never received any follow-up communication. Since then, I have called several times in an attempt to obtain a refund. To make matters worse, both the person I shared the food with and I became sick the following day with symptoms consistent with food poisoning. Despite multiple attempts to reach someone, I have not received any assistance or response from the manager, Bruce, regarding this matter. I am very disappointed with both the quality of the food and the lack of customer service. I hope someone from management will contact me soon to address this issue and provide a refund.

Super relaxed, they take your order at the counter and the food was brought out fast. The price is very good for what you get. I got the Deluxe Combination bento box with Calamari for an addition 3 dollars and Grilled Honey chicken and fried tofu. I asked for no rice extra salad. My Husband got the Dre and the godfather rolls. Their sushi is 50 percent off the rolls which is amazing. Will definitely be back with these prices and food quality. Open seating can self seating.

Bento 1 $21

That was pretty yummy. We attended the teaspoon grand opening and was so hungry bc of the wait so we stopped by here. I ordered a bento box #1. It came out to be $21 and some change and we also add tips on top. So somewhere around $25. It came with a salad and inside the bento box it has the teriyaki chicken, 4 dynamite sushi pieces, white rice and tempora shrimps and some fried veggies. It was a good snack to share with my sister and daughter while we waited in line for our drinks. But it is definitely getting pricey for a bento box. I enjoyed every part of it most importantly the dynamite roll was yummy. Everything was good.

Found the placethrough Yelp and not to far from the hotel. It's in a large shopping center so lots of parking. The menu is pretty extensive with sushi and bento plates. I ordered teriyaki beef and mixed tempura which came with a regular sushi roll. The beef was similar to bulgogi and pretty tender and easy to eat. The tempura was interesting in that the shrimp seemed to be pre-made frozen but the veggies were in-house battered. The sushi roll i ordered was negihama. It was okay. You order at the counter and they give you a number to put on the table. They bring the food to your table. It is a nice place to eat with a good number of tables to sit at.

Kids meal- Chicken teriyaki.

Kids meal: This meal is enough food for an adult meal for sure! Very good food. The chicken was very tender.

Door dashed from this location and the food hit the spot. The beef salad was amazing. The beef was seasoned well, just wish there as more sauce, and salad was great with veggies. Got a veggie roll on the side for the rice Everything tasted amazing.

About once a month I have a craving specifically for the Bento #1 special. It comes with chicken teriyaki, mixed tempura, and 4 pieces of a sushi roll. I usually call ahead or order online. The service is quick, the employees are nice, and the restaurant is clean. My only complaint is that they don't have an image or pdf menu online. You have to go to their online ordering platform the view the menu. Small detail! I highly recommend!!

I usually get the Korean short ribs with extra salad. The dressing is really good!
Michelle H.

I absolutely love this place. The food is excellent and if you are shopping or live next to Loehmann's Plaza and it's a MUST TRY! I usually get the Korean short ribs with extra salad the dressing is really good. It NEVER DISAPPOINTS

My coworker and I decided to order to-go for lunch. Unfortunately, they don't have to-go menus available or a website...so the ordering process isn't as easy as the other surrounding restaurants. I ordered the salmon skin handroll and a roll - can't remember the name. The salmon skin was delicious but the portions were off. There was way more cucumber than salmon skin in my handroll. The sushi roll I ordered was good too. I really liked that the slices of fresh peppers on top were actually spicy! It's pretty pricey now. I remember coming here while I was a college student at Sac State and really getting a bang for my buck. That's no longer the case...my one handroll and sushi roll was nearly $30!

The food was amazing, with great portions and a delicious taste. I would highly recommend it!

I also have to give a huge shoutout to Raef, who made our experience even more special! He was the friendliest and most attentive server we've had so far. He was on top of everything, constantly making sure we had everything we needed and that our drinks and food were coming out on time. His service was truly exceptional!

I walked inside having no idea that it was going to be a top quality experience. The restaurant was huge and it was packed at 5 PM. We couldn't get a table so we sat at the sushi bar, and there was plenty of room there. Plus watching all of the chefs put together the Omakase offerings was really cool. We opted for the Japanese cauliflower curried soup, the black cod special, the king Roll, the watermelon and mint salad and the shrimp and corn dumpling. Every single dish was FIRE!!! The flavors were delicate and nuanced and perfectly balanced. Even the frisée lettuce on the watermelon and mint salad was a flavor explosion. We found ourselves drinking the sauce out of the bowl from the shrimp and corn dumpling. The croutons in the curried cauliflower soup were crispy on the outside and buttery on the inside. The black cod was the texture of a scallop and the squash purée set it off just right. The king Roll was a marvel to see and absolutely a delight to eat. I loved that little hint of lemon that accented the crab and lobster flavors. 1000% recommend this restaurant to anyone who enjoys really damn good food. Craziest part of the meal was the cost, it was incredibly reasonably priced, not overpriced, like most restaurants of this caliber. We will definitely be back. Thank you Kru for making my special occasion even more special!

Warmed my hands like you'd want after walking in from a cold walk in the snow. The Uni tasted like I'd been walking in my boots on Kodiak Island and picked up a sea urchin to dig out the eggs and ate it on the spot Uni was from Japan, but it tasted as fresh as I've ever had while walking a beach in hip boots. I wish I lived in Sacramento. I would be here regularly. It's sad. I'll probably only get here once a year. Bonus! I read the history of the restaurant And it warms my heart to know that I patronized a place that has a history of personal sacrifice and Toil to make a wonderful place for people to congregate and enjoy a fantastic meal Again, I appreciate it that is less American and more Japanese at the bar Thank you.

TT stood out because it was fresh, tasty, and a good portion size. Some places make small pieces or use way too much rice. Not here. We started with the Special Scallops appetizer. Lots of fresh scallops in a little bit of chili oil with micro greens. The scallops were real scallops and not the small, chewy bay scallops. The texture was great and the scallops were fresh and the dab of chili oil brought out that yummy flavor. We ordered 4 rolls and were stuffed. We all thought they were a great value because of the size, the fish to rice ratio, sauce that accented the fish instead of replacing the flavors, and just a good value for the price. I really enjoyed them all but the soccer named CR7 and Very Messi rolls where my favorites. East Sac and Sunshine are refreshing with a touch of lemon. Of the two, I enjoyed East Sac more. The restaurant was packed even for a Saturday lunch. Good thing we made reservations. They are on the AMEX Resy app and it is definitely worth making the reservation if you get the credit. They don't take same-day reservations. They have a patio, dining room, and sushi bar. We all loved it and it was approved by my two high school daughters. We'll be heading back.

I feel like if a restaurant is empty, you should be more attentive to the only customers you have. Fish quality was bad considering for their prices. I am not sure if its because its in the "happy hour" but pepperfin was clearly not fresh and old + rubbery. A roll that was ordered was the same. Just because an item is in the happy hour menu, does not mean quality should be less fresh, old and terrible. Fresh fish is always important considering it is raw!
