I have been multiple times to Bento and I have to say my favorite roll is the Virginia roll! The man and wife who work there are always so kind and smiley and food is served fairly quickly! A little, nice place to enjoy some sushi or hibachi!

Sooo freaking yummy! The girl at the counter could be friendlier when she snatches that money without a smile or thank you. The foods expensive and delightful don't lose customers because your rude

Grabbed some sushi and spring rolls for take out recently. As most would say, it's pretty good for a small town Asian restaurant. Had a Crab Crunch roll, Spicy Tuna Crunch roll, Spicy Snow Crab roll, and an order of Spring rolls. The spring rolls were some of the BEST I've ever had! They were larger than what you get normally-and crispy! Really good. The sushi was all well prepared and the taste was fresh. Good sized portion too. The "spicy" rolls could have a bit more spicy...just personnel taste I suppose. Be sure to grab chopsticks and sauce packets on your way out-they didn't put any in the bag-so I had to use a fork to eat the sushi. The woman who answered the phone was very hard to understand--could tell she was wearing a mask :/ She was wearing it when I arrived and wasn't very nice when I picked up my order either. Time to dispose of masks--they don't work and they don't help. Uploaded new menu pics FYI. They are current as of June 2021. You're welcome.

Good stuff. B's cousins recommended this place and so we all decided to give it a try. I love the ambiance of Bento, it's super laid back and there is plenty of seating. The cashier was very friendly, patient, and helpful. Condiments, drinks, etc. are within reach. Restrooms are in the back and clean. They offer sushi, hibachi, salads, and house specials. Our food came out in no time and the cashier even brought us over a complimentary starter. That was so kind and generous of him, thank you! Their sushi is on point. We enjoyed their hibachi as well, they are generous with the portions. I appreciate the reasonable prices too. If you're in the Portland area, this is a great neighborhood restaurant.
