The Bento House: Reviews & Ratings
I enjoy eating here here for many years. People and service is always on point. The pork belly is so so delicious. Many other items they offer are good to. Thank me later. Enjoy.
Grab lunch here 23 times a week. I really enjoy the Korean Bbimbap with Bulgogi and Vegetables and Grilled chicken Avocado Roll
this was my first time here! bc of covid they had to make a smaller menu and no longer do the veggie bento box, BUT the teriyaki tofu plate is amazing! the tofu is so buttery and the batter is crunchy, delicious
Decent portions. Got the bulgogi plate!
Teriyaki tofu not greasy or with heavy breading. Rice was beautiful and salad super fresh. I would come here again. Mike D.
I really love this little place. The waitress I believe also the owner and chef is super kind and friendly. The food is really tasty and the portions are quite substantial. Now.. is this the BEST bento in the Bay Area? No. Its not. But ...
Ive been here for lunch twice. Id recommend you beat the lunch crowd by arriving btwn 11a 1130a. Otherwise it can get pretty crowded. Id recommend the chicken bento over the salmon. The chicken is delicious. The service is very friendly too.
I love the spicy pork here! This place is run by Korean and its korean food is great!
