Red Dragon Roll Hamachi Heaven Roll Chicken N Chicken Katsu
Alohilani F.

I still stand by my first review. This place is so welcoming and family friendly. Love coming here.

It's been a number of years since my last visit to Happy Bento and I'm so happy to have reintroduced it into my rotation. The rolls, nigiri, bento boxes, and teriyaki are perfect in flavor, texture, and satisfaction. Service is friendly and consistent which makes for a wonderful experience. The restaurant has a decent number of tables and our 7:30pm arrival for 4, had no delay in being seated. I highly recommend the hamachi heavenly roll. It's to die for if you like spicy foods.

Chicken Bento

Maxi is the best server. My first time here and she welcomed me with a great smile and attitude. She said have a seat and it will be ready in 15. Not even 5 minutes sitting down, my foods ready. Fast service. Maxi is the bomb!! Thanks

Clean, beautiful decor and ambiance, great throwback music during lunch, excellent customer service and really delicious food. Thick sticky teriyaki sauce just how I like it. The servers were on it, always offering things we didn't even know we needed, but did! Kiddo loved that they had a nice selection of Ramune sodas. Next time I'll enjoy a bubble tea or adult beverage. Sake selection looked great also. Everything was fresh and delicious.

If it's one thing my husband and I know it's NEVER go somewhere with an insane extravagant menu. We went against everything we knew. We gave this place a try and we were proven correct. Not to go where there is a huge menu. The food was so bland, that we didn't even take it to go. Not even our kids who aren't picky at all wanted to eat. It's one of those places where they go to cash n' carry and just throw the food together no thought, no skill, no time and effort put into the meals. It was a huge disappointment. Service? None. No friendly staff, we had to constantly ask for things, ambiance? High-school broke kids with no palette. That's what I'd call the ambiance.

Decent, decent. Being from Hawai'i, my default meal when traveling is a good ol' bento. One of my friends, also from HI, also living in Puyallup, had told me that she and her girlfriend had enjoyed this spot. And I was genuinely excited to try. I got a couple of bentos for takeout. Both with nigiri sushi, one with shrimp tempura, and the other with tonkatsu. I thought it was rather pricey for what you get, and the bento was mid at best. The tempura wasn't anything out of the ordinary, but definitely leaned more on the oily side. This is to the point where I had a bout of indigestion over it overnight :( the nigiri was far from fresh, which makes me sound like a spoiled princess, but I could not do it LOL The tonkatsu was okay. It was on the drier side. Grateful to have gotten this spot off my checklist, but no thank you for the future :/

I love this place! My bf and I come here pretty often because the service, food, and ambiance are all great and the pricing is very reasonable. Our server today was Amanda and she helped me decide on the Ebi special roll, which was delicious and filling. She also recommended an iced coffee milk tea with vanilla and it was sooo good. Overall great experience every time we go.

My boyfriend and I have been here twice for lunch. Once last year and just recently. They have…read moreincreased their lunch prices since then so just be aware that the menus I posted last year are not the same as this current year. I had gotten their bento lunch special last year and was very happy with the amount of food but did not receive miso soup. They raised this price by $5 and I couldn't really justify that so I decided to get something else. My boyfriend got their sushi roll lunch special last time and in our recent visit and was happy with his choices. I got the sushi rolls lunch specials this time and I wished the rolls had more rice on them as there spots that had no rice at all or it would just come apart. For our rolls, we have tried their Philly roll, shrimp tempura roll, Lion King Roll, and spicy Bay roll. The sushi here is just your average sushi spot. It doesn't really differentiate itself from other places. For example, the spicy bay roll that I got just had a line of sriracha sauce and I was hoping for their own spicy sauce to top it off. The teriyaki was good from what I remembered but again, nothing to really differentiate it from other nearby locations. The service is friendly but they never come back to check on you or refill waters. Even when we were finished, the waitress was watching TV and must have got engrossed in it that she forgot we were there as no take out orders or other customers came in while we were there. They do have a large TV playing sports but no music and the TV was rather quiet. The space is nice but it just felt very dark but we sat next to a window so I could take nice pictures. I think this will be our last visit as there are other locations offer a better dining experience with better service and ambiance.

Once you find the spot there's no turning back lol. The inside of the place has an amazing atmosphere, the guys that usually make the sushi are friendly and will answer any questions you have. My cousin and I would always come here when we're craving for sushi or whenever we just want to treat ourselves with good food once in a while.

UPDATE: I received a response from someone who identified themselves as the owner/manager. This person took no accountability for the poor behavior of their staff. I was told (among other dissatisfied responses) that they spoke with the server. Not once did they ask where we were seated, so how could you know where we were seated, to know whom exactly of your staff to have that talk with? Very poor encounter from management, and I see why their employees are no different!!
