We love this place for their oyster omelette but was so disappointed when I ordered the Taiwanese sausage that we were craving but got a completely different item. Instead of the juicy, sweet, and meaty sausage that is typically served with slices of garlic, we got lap cheong or Cantonese style sausage which is salty, dry aged, and firm. This kind of sausage usually goes into sticky rice. I'm not sure if they have this on their menu and made a mistake with my order, but if they are putting Taiwanese sausage on their menu and serving this, it's a false advertisement. read more

Had a tea craving so came here. There's a lot of tea options in this area but this was the only one I could find with ginger tea, which I didn't even end up ordering. I ordered a strawberry green tea which was still good. Would come back to try their others flavors. They also have a seating area and free wifi so may do a wfh day here as well. They have music playing on medium volume but doesn't look like it gets too crowded. read more

I visited for lunch on a Sunday with my Usagi Medical Group crew. I had the chicken curry, and it was excellent. Totally hit the spot. Comfort food. Hot and delicious, with potatoes, carrots, and good old fashioned Japanese curry sauce. I coupled that with some tea, and went home a very happy man. Bento Cafe is spacious and bright. Service was thorough and rather quick. Staff were extremely friendly and made good recommendations. 10/10 would totally go back. Holler if you're coming with. read more

The service was excellent! The waiter was so nice and friendly!! The place was also so clean! I love the overall interior, it does bring me back to those Taiwanese TV drama days, especially the music. The daily veggies they had was simple and lovely. The corn, cabbage, and broccoli was delicious (both bentos had them). The Beef Shank Bento was simple and good. 3/5 The Chicken Drum Bento was crispy and a little bit salty but paired with the veggies - pretty good! I opted for the bone out (which is nice because I didn't want to deal with the bone today). The chicken was cooked just right. 4/5 The Shrimp Omelette was very delicious. 4/5 Some people might not like the texture, if you are a texture person, you might not enjoy this. I thought it was pretty good. The shrimp was cooked just right, bouncy and had a snap on it. The sauce on that omelet was so good read more

I have been here before and enjoyed the food to go. This time, I decided to dine in, and boy, was I glad that I did. I wanted noodle and soup, so I decided on the Traditional Taiwanese Beef Noodle Soup. It's one of the best beef bowls that I have had in a long time! I also got the Taiwanese Nuggets and the Squid balls, and both were equally delicious! Hence, I had to order the pork minced beef rice to go and save that for dinner! 5 stars for one of the best Taiwanese foods that I have had in a long time. I was slurping away, and the girls were laughing at me. I'm not gonna apologize for enjoying my food, lol. I will be back for more! Come and try it if you dare to travel this far from Dawsonville! read more

Bento cafe has been around for a lonnnng time and I hope it will be around forever! They have such hearty meals, appetizers, and drinks. All of their food is super authentic as well. We got the grilled pork chop rice, pan fried fish fillet rice, fried radish cake and tofu beancurd. I loved everything and this my go to meal every single time. Even though their other items are just as good as well! The tofu bean curd is a cold appetizer dish with thin slices of tofu topped with a savory sauce and one lots of green onion. The fried radish cakes are always good and if you ask for it spicy, it will really be spicy! The pan fried fish fillet was so good! It also came with an assortment of vegetables like beansprout, bamboo shoots, corn and pickled vegetable. The pork was also just as good. The service here is also fast and efficient. I feel like they are more takeout based but even dining in, the cashier came to check on us and refilled our waters. Overall, this place just always hits the spot and I will come back a million times (and get the same thing lol). read more

Now I see what the hype is about and how it's lasted over the new restaurants over the years!! I've seen Bento Cafe here for years and I've never wanted to try Bc I don't crave bento boxes. For some reason when I think bento boxes it's like the typical Japanese boxes but finally I realized that this just is not the case! I would say this is like a twist on Taiwanese Street Food with sit down restaurant setting. FOOD:: *Bento Pork Chop - you may choose grilled or fried comes with pork over rice and 4 sides including: corn, thinly sliced cabbage, thinly sliced radish, and some sour veggie. It tasted pretty great. I loved the pork over rice the most. Corn was sweet, and the pork chop was very juicy. However it did not have much dept of flavor about it tho. *bento fried chicken leg - the chicken was soooo pretty, golden brown skin, fried to perfection. Came with the same sides * Spicy Chicken Nuggets- sooo good!!!! Generous portions and seems like they just throw Cayenne on top to make it spicy. I think they're using dark meat to make these SERVICE:: Needs improvement, the girl that served us kept referring and pointing to the menu to answer my questions. I'm saying if I gotta keep referring back to the menu to get my questions answered why are you here??? When you know already and can't just tell me ??? It really rubbed me the wrong way. Other than that service was decent but why not smile or pretend like you care if I come back or not Anyways ... food was good and this is a popular spot among all my friends read more

So I went back a third time, because of course I did...everything I tried this time ranged from really good to fantastic. I had the beef noodle soup, the basil fried rice, and the steam rice cake. Steam rice cake - this was really good. I wasn't sure what sort of rice cake it would be, it was a type of blood pudding which I probably wouldn't have gotten but I'm glad I did because apparently I actually like blood pudding. Really nice texture with the rice, and sauce/seasoning was very tasty. Beef noodle soup - this was great, as well...take note, when they say spicy they do mean spicy. I ordered mild and it was still fairly spicy, though I still really enjoyed it. The beef was good cuts and the noodles were fresh and well textured, and as for the vegetables included we all know I'm a sucker for bok choi. Basil fried rice - this was...breathtaking. Incredible. Magnificent. How can one describe this? The carrots perfectly julienned, the flavor mix between them and the onions, egg and basil, the fluffiness and flavor in the rice...this is nearly at the level of the shrimp omelette for me, really. In short, Bento Cafe continues to impress. This restaurant is no one-trick pony. The basil fried rice is definitely a "must try" here. read more

They have a large selection of delicious Taiwanese food and the service is always great.

I was one of this restaurant's first customers when they first opened....golly, probably over 15+ years ago now, give or take? Done a few reviews for them before and used to come often, but last was a few years ago when their entree prices were raised yet again and they priced themselves out of what I thought was reasonable at the time relative to other restaurants that's just as good, if not better. Because of that, I haven't been back in a few years, but they are roughly back in line now....they just started early. Anyway, that being said, I would recommend Bento again now if you are in the area! Pros and cons below are as noted today...... Pros: 1) Their stuff is more authentic than not. If you are looking for a good representation of Taiwanese snack foods and dishes, you can get a pretty good idea here. 2) Their grilled drum is amazing - if you don't know what to get, get that. It's very good. Been eating it since when they first opened and it has stayed the same tastiness. 3) Their deep fried radish cake is yum. Even better than the pan fried, which is what I usually get at dim sum. 4) The pan fried dumplings were pretty good, they did a good job crisping up the bottom. 5) Store is generally clean and the cashier/server is usually friendly. Cons: 1) There may be a wait. There was one super nice guy up front today and he did it all for the most part other than the actual cooking. Taking orders, making drinks, serving food, packing to-go orders, etc. The poor guy was literally running. He still had a great attitude however, so they found a gem in him. He can really use some help though. 2) Their pickled cucumber is just okay. It's good for cutting the grease if you get a lot of fried stuff, but just be mindful the flavor is just sweet/sour....it's missing something in it's authenticity. So just adjust expectations accordingly. 3) I wouldn't personally get their fried nuggets again. It's really rather dry on the inside instead of crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside. The flavor is a bit lacking too, though I can't quite pinpoint why....it LOOKS right, just doesn't taste quite right.‍ 4) I don't get my boba drinks here personally. Their toppings are an additional charge to the drinks...which is fine...BUT they are VERY frugal in their topping ratio even with the additional charge. So depending on how you like your toppings, this may not be your drink place like it isn't for me. read more

My s/o (lives in a different city) wanted to treat me to take out, and we discovered Bento Cafe on Ubereats. I'm not going to lie, I literally looked at this menu for over 30 minutes trying to decide what to get. I ended up with spicy fried radish cake and nuggets (better described as popcorn chicken) as an appetizer, and the fried pork chop bento for my entree (it was a special occasion, don't judge me). And man, was it great. The fried radish cake was my favorite--though it wasn't spicy at all in my opinion, the fried herbs (basil?) were really aromatic, and the combination of the crisp skin with the melt-in-your-mouth radish was amazing. The pork chop was averagely seasoned, but I loved the veggies--the sweetness of the corn and the greens (can't think of what it's called in English rn), the acidity of the pickled vegetables, and the salt of the meat sauce (under the pork chop) all came together beautifully. I definitely have a soft spot for Taiwanese food, but if that's what you're looking for too, that is what you will get here. Highly recommend. read more

Bento Cafe - Chicken Drum bento - Taiwanese Near Me - Norcross, Georgia

Curry Chicken Huifan: absolutely horrible. I cook fitness meals all the time so I can tell instantly it's chicken breast. Overcooked and tough to eat. Paid almost $15 bucks for a curry that came from store-bought curry cubes w/o any highlights. You are better off try something else Chicken nuggets: very good, could be a bit more crispier. Add the chili powder if you want the kick. Basil fried rice: also pretty good. The rice could be a bit drier though, but overall it's pretty flavorful and neither soggy nor too greasy. They could also use some more seafood. Lesson learned? Try something Taiwanese, unique, and most importantly that needs to be made from scratch. read more

Was in the mood for boba and a quick snack. Bento Café was the closest place to me at the time. It's located in the Hong Kong Supermarket shopping center off Jimmy Carter Blvd, sandwiched between Nam Phuong and Bambu. Plenty of parking shared by all the businesses. I arrived about 20 minutes before they close for their afternoon break at 4pm. There were two other customers dining when I arrived. The place isn't huge, but they've maximaxed the use of space and have ample seating. They also have a lounge area with a couch, coffee table, and magazines by the entrance. The place was clean. I placed a to go order of iced honey green milk tea with pearls as well as mild chicken nuggets. The lady at the front got started on my drink immediately following the transaction. She gave me the option of regular, less, or more ice. I also noticed their menu offers an option for 0%, 30%, 50%, 80%, or 100% sugar levels, but I didn't specify. Same percentages apply to the ice level. Within minutes my nuggets were ready. I was probably in and out in under 10 minutes. My milk tea satisfied my craving for sugar and boba. It was refreshing. The nuggets were piping hot and came in a small brown paper bag with two small skewer sticks. I saved some for my son and he described them as, "crunchy, juicy, and soft on the inside." Yup, he loved them. I enjoyed them, too. They had good flavor and kick, but I was not wowed. I have had better elsewhere. Next time I'll order them spicy. Service was pleasant and fast. Prices are reasonable. They have an extensive menu including snacks, noodles, rice, milk teas, coffee, etc. I am open to trying more items on their menu in the future. read more

While I was waiting for a friend to meet me for lunch at a nearby business, I decided to go up early to get some work done. There are so many businesses in this plaza, so I decided on a Bento Cafe to sit at while I got a bit of work done. I ordered a bubble tea and sat in the back. I love that it was served in a mason jar! It was so cute! They have the usual variety of flavors for bubble tea, and I believe I decided on honeydew. The seating was comfortable and conducive to Co. working. read more

Was honestly so excited to find another authentic Taiwanese restaurant! When I looked at the menu, I was pleasantly surprised to see multiple popular Taiwanese dishes - like oyster omelette, ba wan, radish cake, ai yu, Taiwanese sausage and even congee! I ordered the braised pork over rice meal (lu rou fan) which came with 3 different veggies, an egg, pickled veggie and plenty of braised minced pork. It was very good. I will totally get it again next time. The beef noodle soup was also amazing, although next time I'd get spicy instead of mild. They also had ba Wan, which something my mom used to make when I was younger. It was delicious! The taro milk tea with egg pudding was amazing! They even had aiyu as an option for dessert, which is pretty much a sweet lemon-y dessert with clear jelly. I grew up eating this back in New York and have been trying to find this for a very long time! All in all, I am glad that I found another fabulous Taiwanese restaurant. I wish it was closer though because it was definitely a far drive to Norcross from my house. But for me, the commute is absolutely worth it! Highly recommend. read more

I've been here twice and I really like it! I've had their Pork Chop Bento, Wonton Soup, and Pork Gua Bao (Bun) Their Pork Chop Bento is yummy and if you don't know what to order start with this. Their pork chop is fried with flavorful batter and you get a generous portion slapped on top of rice with minced pork. It's a hearty $9 well spent! The wonton soup is legit! not that Chinese take-out version with the thick wrapping and tiny morsel of meat. Theirs is a meatball wrapped in a delicate dumpling peel floating in pork broth, the way it should be! The Gua Bao with Pork was delicious although I felt like their sauce was a little too tangy for me. I might ask them to go easy on it next time but overall it's juicy, tender and delicious! read more

I stopped here randomly awhile ago and tried the milk tea, fried rice, and dumplings. The inside was clean, it had a nice environment, and the customer service was excellent. I've been back several more times to try other items on the menu and everything has been delicious! The last time I went for bubble tea, the cashier was nice enough to recommended me some toppings based on the flavor I liked when I told her I wanted to try something different. My goto now is the basil fried rice with chicken and the taro milk tea with egg pudding. I definitely recommend this to anyone in the area looking for great Taiwanese cuisine! read more

Jasmine Boba tea and food is great, it is on the pricey side. Great service and nice restaurant overall.

Bento Cafe serves Taiwanese fast food. There aren't many Taiwanese restaurants in Atlanta. Cafe 101 comes to mind and you can get fried snacks at Quickly, but that's about it. Bento Cafe is located in the same shopping center as Hong Kong Supermarket, Happy Valley, Nam Phuong, and Kokai Thai Bistro. The restaurant offers a wide variety of Taiwanese street food including various pig and cow parts, tofu, dumplings, fried meats, gua bao (Taiwanese "burgers"), soups, noodles, and bubble tea. All of the foods are under $8 each, which makes Bento a pretty good value. I went with some friends and shared. We tried a variety of items including: Bento fried (chicken) drum with white rice, corn, and bamboo shoots Mix 'n toss noodle - green onion, cilantro, bean sprouts, chives, minced garlic, pork meat sauce, and a seasoned egg Beef noodle soup - green onion, cilantro, and Chinese vegetables Gua bao - braised pork inside a steamed bun (Taiwanese "hamburger") Nuggets - chicken fried in an addictive breading, spices, and basil Beef stew - beef shank, carrots, tomatoes, onion, green peas, and white rice The nuggets were a big hit. Served in a metal bowl, they were very flavorful and crispy. They're similar to the chicken nuggets served at Quickly. I'm not sure which is better as both versions are fantastic. I'm going to give the edge to Bento, though. The basil is fried to a crisp just like the nuggets. You can get the chicken with the Bento "drum" either grilled or fried. The meat was tasty, but fatty. This was the case with most of the meats except for the chicken nuggets and braised pork inside the gua bao. The drum comes with two choices of Bento's daily vegetables. The vegetable options were not exciting the night we went: bamboo shoots, corn, and broccoli. The rice was topped with a sweet and salty sauce. The "mix 'n toss" noodles were very good. You're served a bowl of noodles topped with several various ingredients. Like the name of the dish says, you mix everything together, similar to northern Chinese zha jiang mian (noodles) and Korean bibimbap (rice). The sauce at the bottom of the mix 'n toss noodles was dark brown, thin, and vinegary. A whole egg was served with the bowl and it was sweating with condensation. Both the beef stew and the beef noodle soup were just OK as the broth for both was not very memorable. We tried some of Bento's bubble teas to end our meal. Bento makes a good bubble tea and I would put them up there with my favorites, Quickly and Lollicup. Bento has nine flavors to choose from and smalls start at $2.59 (some flavors start at $2.99). I ordered the jasmine green milk tea with tapioca pearls and egg pudding (+50 cents for the pudding). I wanted lychee or grass jelly, but they were out. The jasmine green milk tea was fragrant and the tapioca pearls were fresh and had an appetizing consistency. Michael was our server and he did an excellent job. As for the restaurant itself, I was expecting Bento to be a cute and trendy restaurant, but it's actually got an industrial feel to it with exposed ductwork, stainless steel tables, wooden benches and chairs, and cinder block walls separating the booths. There's even a cinder block decoration outside the restrooms. The restaurant is small, clean, and well-lit. It's got a semi-open kitchen and small gifts and knick knacks for sale up front. There's free Wi-Fi and a stack of Taiwanese gossip magazines for your reading pleasure. If you want to see a cool layout of the space, check out their web site (http://www.bentocafe.com/). It's got a bird's eye view of the space in 8-bit video game format. Other miscellaneous notes: Bento Cafe is closed Mondays. The kitchen usually closes about 15-30 minutes before their official closing time. Sometimes, people like to come in just before they close to get teas or lattes. They do not use MSG. The credit card minimum is $6.00. read more

Visited Bento Cafe with a friend recently. Located in an authentic Asian plaza off Jimmy Carter, we went in with pretty high expectations. Upon entering, we were immediately greeted and seated. The service here is attentive and friendly and the location is clean and minimal. My friend ordered a milk tea with tapioca and she enjoyed it. We ordered Baos; I got the pork Bao and my friend got the trio. She enjoyed hers and I thought mines was tasty as well. I think we both would like a bit more sauce and flavor but they didn't have siracha which seemed strange. I also had a pork belly bento plate. That's where it fell apart for me. There was no flavor to be found in the plate. The pork was mostly fat and the vegetables seemed like they were cooked with water and nothing else. Not the least bit flavorful and I left much of it on the plate. Not sure we'll be back but maybe I'll stick to ramen or a soup as that seems simpler and a safer bet. read more

I like to come here when I want a quick meal, nothing fancy. They have a variety of appetizers, snacks, and entrees to choose from as well as many flavors of bubble tea. The prices here are pretty reasonable, however some don't really make sense to me. For example: the "gua bao" trio.. It's $13.95 where you get all three of the different flavors of gua bao. If you order the baos separately, it's $14 which is not much cheaper than ordering separately if you get what I'm saying.. When I ordered, I asked the waitress if I could change one of them, she said no.. So I just ordered separately which didn't really make much of a difference in price. OK? Whatever, lol. Entrees: I usually order the Chicken Drum entree, it comes with two sides. Their sides usually change daily so you might not get the same choices each time. I also like the Pork Chop or Seafood Stir Fried Noodles which are also their popular dishes. Appetizers: Definitely try the radish cake, I usually get it mild because it adds a bit of a kick to the flavor. It's really hot when they first bring it out though so I would be careful when eating. I also like Nuggets, Seaweed Salad, and Taiwanese sausages. Try them all if you have a lot of people in your party! :) read more

We were so excited to find a Taiwanese style cafe open on Christmas Day in the area near our hotel. I had Bento Cafe bookmarked for a long time, looked over all of the photos, and read all of the reviews. The atmosphere is modern and minimal, I was all about it! However, the food is really bland. I mean, like the fried pork chops had absolutely no seasoning. The national dish, Taiwanese Beef Noodle Soup, just tasted like salt. The meat was really tender, though. But, we had to order a side of noodles, because the waiter said that it does not come with noodles? They were out of Taiwanese Sausage, so we got the Cold Marinated Tofu. The folded pork belly bun (Gua Bao) was not memorable. The bubble tea was also forgettable. They do offer shaved ice dessert, so perhaps we will return to try it one day, if we are in the area in need of something sweet. With so many more flavorful options in the area, we will stick with the other Taiwanese places on this side of town. read more

Although this place has the sweetest helpers and a great cozy atmosphere, the quality of food isn't up to par. And because of this, a star is falling off. Although I've been here twice, I have to sadly say that I am rather disappointed. I agreed to eat here again because I was excited about trying something new on the menu. Plus, it was per my date's urging... Well, needless to say the seafood fried rice was anything but good. It was decent enough to be consumed, but it lacked a lot of things: color & taste! Just take a look at my picture of the rice. There was hardly any color, and the seafood itself was tasteless (shrimp and squid pieces with pink fish cake slices). Although my date said it was pretty tasty, I've come to realize that he's pretty satisfied with most food choices. lol. Now, I'm not a picky person and pretty easy going about my food tolerance. Well, I'm pretty neutral when it comes to rating food, but this was somewhat below par. I seriously just loaded the rice with salt, pepper, and hot sauce... :\ If I wanted something bland, I would have gotten the veggie version... read more

My husband and daughter stopped in for a bubble tea. My daughter needed use the rest room after dinner. She was probably in there for a while since we had just driven 4 hrs from Charlotte. The lady started banging on the door telling her to hurry up in the bathroom. After a while she threatened her with a call to the police if she didn't exit the bathroom as they were closing in 10 minutes. Not a warm welcome for someone visiting for the first time. The lady was quite rude and made my daughter embarrassed. On top of the bubble tea was like 200 pct too sweet... Pretty bad drink read more

This place doesn't fail to impress. I followed my server's recommendations again. The drum noodle is unique. Noodles were great with the broth and I got an extra treat with a big piece of chicken. I have to remember portion control here. I always get so much food for such a low price. I tried the passion green tea with lychee, low on the sugar. Again, it's good. I prefer the mango flavor a tad more. If you haven't been here, you should check it out. Service is great. Atmosphere is relaxed. Bring something to read or surf the internet with their Wi-Fi.

Five stars in terms of UberEats experiences. Never sat foot in the actual brick and mortar location, but the food was solid on the two occasions my coworkers ordered from them for delivery. Glad I got to snag some food and try this place out. The food was packed well with no leakage and not in styrofoam containers. Everything arrived in relatively good condition for delivery so the food held up well without getting too soggy, sticky, cold or dry. So far, we've tried pan fried dumplings, steamed dumplings, braised pork original bento, minced pork on rice snack, Taiwanese stir fried noodle, pan fried radish cake, wa kue, pickled cabbage, lemon aiyu jelly (which came as an actual container of lemon aiyu jelly, not a bubble tea drink even though it is listed under that category), red bean fresh milk, and several of the tea drinks. Everything tasted fine. Given how food that's sat through a delivery service can be hit or miss in final condition on top of hit or miss food quality, Bento Cafe came through just fine. read more

I loveeeeeee bento! this is the place to go for a quality cup of tea. (milk tea, flavored tea, slushie., etc) finally dined here last night with ceecee, and we shared an order of spicy nuggets. it wasn't all batter, and it wasn't filled with oil. so to sum it up, they were good. for our entrees we ordered the grilled chop and taiwanese stir fry. I've come to find that Bento is very generous with their portion sizes. The chop was very flavorful. yet greasy... i'm just picky about that. The stirfry noodles were good too. About 25 dollars for a full meal. Bento is located in the hong kong strip plaza off jimmy carter, its on the side where happy valley and nam phuong are. The place was clean and crowded on a friday night. All tables were full. The Staff here are very nice and helpful. Will definately be returning. :) read more

I like Taiwanese food. So you would think I would like Bento. I only order one thing here, and that's the grilled chop (3.5). The side veggies aren't bad, usually, although they had this potato side that was kinda sour tasting... and i'm not sure I like it when my veggies taste.. sour... seems like bad juju. Also... service for large groups are TERRIBLE. so don't count on getting your food when you order... of course, I'm always the unlucky one whose food gets forgotten. The waiter took my order with the group, and I didn't get the food. I politely mentioned that I hadn't gotten my food yet so he asked me what I ordered and went to scour the kitchen for it. Ten minutes later, he came back and asked how everyone's food was, so I tried to be patient and told him I'm not sure since I hadn't gotten my food yet... So finally, he RETOOK down my order and put it in... and he finally got me my food after an hour wait. He kept apologizing and apologizing and I just felt guilty. He comp'd my order which was nice... but I didn't even get to eat my food since everyone else was paying for their meals already... not my favorite restaurant experience for sure! However, the one plus side to the "eh" of bento, the FRIED RADISH CAKES(5+++++) omg. You can never go wrong. So the radish cakes themselves get 2 of the 2.5 stars I'm giving bento. The fried basil, the hot chili powder, the hot fried goodness....... omg... I come here really when i'm craving those radish cakes and don't care how the service is. To be honest, I feel like service has slightly improved recently, but it's going to take more than a few more visits to prove that to me. read more

Bento is the furthest place I venture out of my comfort zone. It is located soooo farrrr away! That being said, this is the place to go for me if I want to have something simple and good! I have not been to Taiwan, but a Taiwanese friend has recommended this place, so I supposed this place serves an authentic Taiwanese food. My usual is the Bento Chop (grilled). In fact, this is the dish I order every time I am there. I guess I am not a too adventurous person after all :( I really enjoy the Bento Chop (grilled version). The meat toppings on top of the rice is so savory, I can just eat this everyday. Bento Chop comes with 2 sides, my pick is usually corn with cabbage or corn with egg in tomato. The Honey Milk Bubble Tea is one of the best bubble tea I have tried. The tapioca pearls are always soft. Service is always good here. Not much ambience, but you are looking for a good meal with good bubble tea, venture out here and give this place a try. I took off one star from being located so far from where I want to be and also the strip mall has been so crowded in recent times. Just expect to park farther and get some walking exercise ;-) read more
