Most times when we travel we look for a Japanese restaurant. I was also craving Korean food too. Well here at Bento Box you can get the best of both worlds!
So convenient! Did they know we were coming?
Because we were from out of state and not familiar with this area Yelp steered us to the wrong location! Darn it someone laid that pointer down incorrectly!!!
I had to call the restaurant again. First time to make reservations. Secondly we were lost can you tell us where you're located? It was more apparent bc the first
time we drove behind that strip mall of restaurants! Duh. They were located across from Lowe's!
We actually were here to meet a Yelper friend Vickie who moved out here just recently. We only had just met last year at a couple UYEs but had enjoyed Vickie's company. It was a fun and entertaining night to meet her bf too. Her bf learned a new way to open a bottle of beer from our waiter. We were actually quite taken ourselves! You think we were drinking champagne from the pop off sound of the cap from the bottle of the beer!!!
My miso soup tasted perfect as well as the spicy pork bulgogi. Even though I thought my vegetable tempora tasted different or odd but it could have been my taste buds. The gyoza was good as well as the California roll.
Hubby had the yakisoba and he said it was delicious. I never got around to trying his food. Story of my life! Lol Derek enjoyed his Kirin beer as well as chicken teriyaki bowl. Vickie loved her chicken teriyaki bento box too.
Would we come back? Not sure if we would on this trip.
Be aware that this restaurant is small so reservations are advisable. Parking was plentiful and bathrooms were decent. They do have a baked lobster sushi roll I was eyeing as well as ramen, oyakodon and tempora ice cream. Dang I now got to get some coconut or salted caramel ice cream to satisfy my sweet tooth. Where can I find that at five in the morning? I know my best writing is fresh in the morning! Lol
