    Sanbeiji Three-cup chicken bento. Sorry for the half-eaten photo.
    Ira B.

    Probably the best Chinese food in town! We've been coming here for years, and every time has been great! I usually order their Sanbeiji (three-cup) chicken and crispy chicken meals. Today, we decided on the Sanbeiji and broccoli beef bento boxes. Huge portions, tasty food! The owners are great. It's also fun to eat in the former Pabst brewery. Can't recommend this place enough!

    Bento Xpert is my go to spot when I need a pick me up meal! The staff are incredibly friendly and helpful, the food is authentic and delicious, and the portions are huge. Their five spice chicken and three cup chicken bento boxes are my favorite (though everything on the menu looks so good!). They also have other appetizers and boba as well!

    Despite going keto, I still crave their five spices crispy chicken. Their bento box is very generous and well thought out - a lot of places will give you blah sides, but their sides in the bento are all fresh and delicious. You can chose to get any of the main dish as a "side" rather than as part of bento. This used to be much more affordable, but on my last visit (6/2024), the bento was $12, and the side was $9. I wanted to skip the bento since I wanted to just cheat my keto diet with my favorite five spices chicken, but if you want a better deal, get the bento. Both their braised egg and egg rolls are yummy. I actually also really love their stir fried veggies. My second favorite dish is their Beijing beef. It has been a while since I've been in and I see Korean chicken on their menu now, and I look forward to trying it out. So far, I haven't had anything here that wasn't good (Ok, with the exception of their pork bun, which wasn't bad, but I didn't think it was as good as their other greater fare). What I love more about Bento Xpert are the owners. Samuel and Lydia are both so friendly and make my visits pleasant. Thanks for bringing this authentic Taiwanese experience to Milwaukee!

    Friend recommended this spot that in a small food court nearby Fiserv. Really good, authentic, and flavorful. Favorite was the five spice chicken. So crispy and tasty! Would 100% come back and order. Was pretty quick and the spot had lots of tables.

    Delicious, made to order five spice taiwanese popcorn chicken. Huge portion, I was able to eat it for three meals.

    Three cup chicken and Beef Broccoli Bento

    My go-to place for simple Chinese/ Taiwanese food such as five spice fried chicken, three cup chicken, katsu and beef stir fries. The bento comes with rice, the dish of your choice, a braised egg or spring roll, and a side of vegetable. It's a food hall style restaurant in the first floor of the Eleven building. There are several other businesses within the space. Good value for the price!

    Everyone recommends this place! They have very reasonable price for good food!! I am Taiwanese, when I miss my hometown food, I will stop by here. We always order no. 10 and no.15, the gua bao is amazing too! Don't forget to order bubble tea while you are eating there!

    Mapo tofu!

    It can be really difficult to find authentic Asian food, specifically Chinese food in Milwaukee (Wisconsin in general). It lacks a Chinatown and a ton of restaurants cater to a more western palate. I was craving some good Chinese food and found this Taiwanese place on Yelp. I have eaten here several times (including ordering via app) and my favorite is the tofu (they rotate two different kinds of tofus per week). What I like about the restaurant is how it's kind of a food-court style (they have premade food everyday) or you can order a specialty item which takes longer to cook. The owner is really friendly and the staff have always been efficient. The flavors are definitely authentic and I love that you can pick up your food and be back at work- so convenient. Would definitely recommend this place for good Asian food. It's not greasy or too fried which is common in a lot of carryout places.

    It's located in a food court of sorts. Good food, fast service. Nice staff Would come back again for a quick meal

    HongShao Pork Bento
    Shanna C.

    This place tastes like home! I never thought I would be able to find such authentic Taiwanese food here in Milwaukee. Ordered the hongshao pork bento (pieces of braised pork belly) and the braised minced pork bento (a classic Taiwanese comfort dish). Both dishes were bursting with flavor. Each bento comes with a side of veggies and a tea egg. You can order to go or to dine in the open seating area. The service here is fast and friendly. I cannot wait to come back to try their other bento offerings and gua bao (basically a pork belly bun). I am specifically eyeing the five spice crispy chicken bento and three cup chicken!

    Authentic asian food ,friendly owner. Really good! I think they're still new, so it's a little quiet. But they have great food!

    5 Spice chicken.  Taiwanese popcorn chicken.  Great flavor and crispy!
    Jed H.

    Hidden inside Eleven25 at Pabst, this spot is one worth making the trip for. I had been meaning to check it out for awhile but it was just out of the normal rotation of favorites. Boy did we miss out. Everything ordered came out hot and fresh and I could not have had a happier belly! Stewed brisket came with rice and veggies and reminds me of a dish that someone's grandma would serve up to you on a cold winter day. The pork cutlet was flavorful and not greasy like typical cutlets you may find elsewhere. The 5 spice chicken was probably my favorite, I'm biased towards fried chicken. The gua bao were a good app to start. Definitely will be back to try the rest of the menu!

    Taiwan 3-Cup Chicken
    Stefanie C.

    HOLY CRAP. This has GOT to be one of my favorite meals EVER. So simple yet so memorable. Located in the food hall connected to Eleven25 (student living complex) I was looking for a quick lunch before working my event across the street, and Bento Xpert has a perfect 5 stars on Yelp. Got the Taiwan 3-Cup Chicken, which took some time to prepare but was sooo worthwhile. Would go FAR out of my way in Milwaukee to come back and get this again. Everyone who is a harsh critic of "authentic Taiwanese food" raves about this place, and for good reason.

    Get the Taiwanese pork chop with the soy braised egg. For $10, you cannot find a better deal in the city. Amazing!!!

We were told it gets busy for dinner right away and with no reservations we decided to go right at dinner opening time. There was a line forming outside the door before they opened but luckily we were second in line and got seated right away. The staff is very friendly. They check on you often without rushing. Multiple people greeted us and then thanked us on the way out. All of their sushi options sounded delicious. I got the Very Crunchy. It was served with a fun presentation over dried ice. The sushi itself tasted amazing, even though sushi isn't my favorite. I got the Pad Thai for an entree and I honestly think it's some of the best Pad Thai I've had in a while in Milwaukee. The sauce to noodle ratio was spot on and the flavor was perfect with the right amount of spice. Portions were great as well. Overall, definitely make sure to stop by!

We came after visiting one of the nearby breweries. We were seated right away at the bar. I had a glass of the Black River sake and my boyfriend tried the Blossom of Peace. His was much sweeter and I was very happy with mine. They weren't served in traditional sake cups, just in regular wine glasses but this was good with me as they were a normal sized wine pour. They had a special for Bluefin Tuna. We shared the Nigiri trio by cutting each piece in half. My favorites were the two fattier cuts ( otoro, and chutoro ) I remember at this point we wished we had ordered another appetizer since the restaurant was busy and our main sushi rolls took a bit of time to arrive. We decided next time we would at least get the edamame in between plates. The rolls we ordered were the Ponzu Jello and Riverwest. The Riverwest description listed a smoky miso mayo which I did not notice a different from regular flavored mayo on a roll. The Ponzu Jello was unique and worth trying! The rolls were fat and very filling so we did not need to order more than two! I think we both agreed that the Riverwest roll was our favorite of the two. After that we noticed there was a special for some premium sake, so we ordered the G Joy. Very delicious, easy to drink and a perfect size to share. I will add this restaurant to my places to visit again!
