Great ambiance as soon as you walk in. A great feeling to be greeted by the hostess. We enjoyed the meal which consisted of Yellow tail Carpaccio, bluefin (hell yeah) and Alaskan roll. Our app was spicy edamame deliciousness in a pod. Everything came out on time and oh so yummy read more

Food was ok and service was ok as well! Seemed very rushed to get us in and out, food came out super super quick but tasted that way as well Got the uni udon, it was good! Can't complain. Got the baked green mussels but these were baked, just warmed up almost. The omurice curry plate wasn't good, the curry was super watery and lacking any flavor - the omurice omelette was over cooked and bland as well read more

Bengee Sushi was such a wonderful experience! From the moment we walked in, the hostess welcomed my husband and me with the warmest hello, which immediately set the tone for the evening. The fish is incredibly fresh and absolutely on point. You can really taste the quality in every bite, especially paired with the fresh wasabi. The Kumamoto oysters were fresh and delicious, and the yellowtail carpaccio topped with radish sprouts truly made the flavors pop -- such a perfect balance and presentation. The edamame was fresh as well, though I would have loved a bit more garlic saturation for an extra punch of flavor. That said, everything else was outstanding. The service was phenomenal -- Lucy is exceptional! She went above and beyond to make sure we had a great experience. We will definitely be back! read more

Found this place on Yelp and saw all the good reviews so I figured why not try it. Honestly kinda disappointed. Service was super slow waited like 40 mins just for my 23-piece sashimi plate. The ikura itself took 30 minutes and it wasn't even fresh, I haven't had tasteless ikura like that in so long and the color wasn't bright red. The fish was just okay. Nothing special, kinda mid. We also got the tornado curry rice and that was a let down too. The curry was super watery and just didn't have much flavor at all. What really got me was the service. The place only had like 5 tables so I really don't get what the holdup was. Once they dropped off the last item, they never came back to check on us. Had to literally say "excuse me" like 3 times just to get more ginger and wasabi because the 2 ladies working wasn't paying attention at all. Overall, food was mid and service just wasn't it. Probably not coming back read more

One of the best creamy sea urchin udon pastas I've ever had. So creamy & delicious. I was a little sad that the portion was small because I probably could've ate 2 whole plates. So good. Even my toddler was obsessed! This restaurant is beautiful. The inside really stood out to me, the menus are beautiful as well. I also ordered the chicken gyoza, very crisp. Wish it came with some sort of sauce to enhance the flavors. The Takoyaki was really good! & the tornado curry omurice was very tasty! The curry was really good and flavorful. read more

My friend and I went around 5:30 PM and it wasn't busy at all, which made the experience even better. The atmosphere is so cute and really gives off a "little slice of Japan" vibe. Highly recommend!

Bengee Sushi does sushi, sashimi, and Japanese-style pastas, and the price-for-quality ratio is one of the best I've seen in SoCal. Had to get my typical order of a black dragon roll plus truffle salmon carpaccio, creamy uni udon, and the curry tornado omurice. Everything's priced SO well, and their deluxe 9-grid sashimi set is a *must-get*. You get 23 thicc pieces of fish for 68 bucks. The quality honestly matches that of an omakase. Now the uni udon is incredible, so creamy so delicious, and they also have a yakiudon version. It's more of a chill vibe here but the quality surprisingly surpasses a lot of other sushi spots out there. Thanks for reading! ^-^ read more

Chino's hidden gem! Everyone go try Bengee Sushi! We were in Chino over the weekend for some board games and randomly searched for a lunch spot nearby. Ended up at Bengee Sushi and... wow. Completely exceeded expectations. I honestly didn't know Chino had such solid Japanese food We both ordered their Lunch Specials -- around $25 each, which is such a great deal. Since I'm not a big tempura person, we skipped the bento boxes and went straight for the good stuff. We got one Chirashi Bowl, and the moment it came out we were shocked. So much sashimi! Thick cuts, super fresh, and none of that fishy leftover-trim vibe. The sushi rice underneath was really good too -- not overly sweet or sour, just balanced. The other dish we ordered was the Sashimi Lunch, and again, super generous portion with way more variety than I expected. No shortcuts, no skimping. It also comes with miso soup and salad, both clean and tasty. We added hot tea, which hit the spot on a colder day. That feeling of "randomly picking a place and accidentally finding a great spot" is honestly unmatched They also offer a $79 omakase, plus a more premium $135 one (reservation required). After seeing how generous they are with their lunch portions, I'm definitely coming back for that next time. In short: amazing value. If you love sashimi and find yourself in Chino, this place is absolutely worth the visit. read more

Ordered the super salmon roll with miso soup. The miso soup was flavorful or warm and even filling. The super salmon roll was one of the most disappointing pieces of sushi I've ever had. The rice wasn't sticky or chewy just wet and stuck together if that makes any sense. The salmon on the outside was fine, I suppose you could say it was fresh, but it lacked flavor. The inside didn't have any texture. It was just more salmon. There was no one life to the role. And for the price and size it was as disappointing as your ex-boyfriend... read more

Honestly this place was one of my favorites when they first opened, but ever since they changed management, their service went down. There's this one female server (I think she's the only one) that has pretty bad attitude. I ordered 2 spicy salmon rolls (1 for here and 1 to-go) thinking it would just be a normal spicy salmon roll, but for some reason it came with tempura flakes crunched up inside. I don't like fried things so I was automatically taken aback at this new change. I immediately thought of the spicy salmon roll I ordered to-go and called the server over to modify it with no tempura flakes. She looked awkwardly over her shoulder at the sushi chef and said something in Chinese and told me "Oh it's already done." She had this judgemental weird look on her face and walked away. I felt like it would've been nice to at least try to accommodate my preferences. There was just no concern about my question and I felt disregarded. It made my whole experience here very disappointing and I lost my appetite. A few minutes later she brought my to-go order to me and I checked inside- there were 8pc total. I thought about it and decided that I wasn't going to make a big deal out of the whole tempura flake thing. I called the server over again to order another spicy salmon roll WITHOUT tempura flakes to-go. The server took my order and gave it to me shortly after. I checked the bag and saw 6pc of what looked like a soggy roll. I waited a bit before calling for the server again and asked her why this roll has 6pc and the previous roll has 8pc. She said something about it being 6pc since there are no tempura flakes and went to ask the sushi chef again. They spoke in Chinese again since it seemed like she was worried I would understand her (in fact, I do speak Chinese so yes I understood every word). She turned back to me and repeated the same reasoning a few more times. It really didn't make sense to me but I was tired of her attitude and the whole experience so I just nodded and said okay. On a side note, this server was SUPER nice to the table behind us (they spoke Chinese) and kept going over to recommend them dishes & sauces. For my table, she was very bland and uninterested in us. Our whole experience felt very weird and rushed. Bengee was great before the whole management change situation. I don't think I'll be returning. read more

Bengee Tornado Omurice - Main reason we came, I was craving a tornado omurice dish, but this place ups the level so much. The kimchi and pork belly inside gave it so much flavor that I couldn't help but eat scoop after scoop. Seafood Yakiudon - While the omurice was our main reason for coming, this dish was the winner for us. I couldn't help it when I saw the description and I'm a huge sucker for udon. I was not expecting the amount of flavors this had. They're also pretty generous about the amount of seafood added as well, really fair with the price. I've been wanting to go back hust for this. Bengee House Special Combo - If you're looking to add some rolls to your meal and you're going with one other person, this dish is a good choice because there's two of each kind of roll, so you're able to evenly split them. I'm not a fan of eel in general, but the salmon and shrimp nigiri with their different kind of sauces made a great impression on me. The staff here are very friendly and patient while you go through the menu. It was a bit hard to decide because everything just sounded so good. We need to come back so I can try more of their menu read more

I want to start off by saying this is a beautiful establishment. You can't really tell from outside but once you step inside, its pretty nice. Even the menu is fancy! As for food, I felt like a lot of it was bland. The chicken gyoza didn't come with any sauce and the filling just didn't much taste. The curry tornado omlet was very bland to me. The chicken was cooked good, the veggies was good & the egg was okay but the curry overall lacked flavor to me. The sea urchin udon was decent but I've had better. Service was ok. I don't know if its because I'm not asian or what, but the lady was giving me rude vibes. Maybe it was a language barrier but I did not feel welcomed. She gave the table behind me (they all spoke the same language, mandarin or something) and she was very welcome and very animated with them. read more

Picked up a big order for my brother's birthday today, it was my first time trying them out. I looked at reviews and thought this restaurant was nicely rated so I gave it a shot. They close after lunch so I placed an order to be ready by 5:30pm. When I arrived I was immediately greeted by a gentleman and he brought out our order and let us know everything was in there with individual sauces. Once we got home and opened up everything, it looked very presentable even for takeout, I was impressed. Now for the taste test, we tried out about 7 different rolls. They were all very fresh and delicious. My favorite was the hot night roll. I always get an Alaska to try out the salmon, this place was very good. I will say the spicy garlic edamame was not my favorite, normally it is served warm, this was very cold and I couldn't taste much garlic. Other than that, everyone loved the sushi. We cannot wait to go back and dine in. I recommend this local sushi spot. Thank you. read more

So I usually don't bother to leave a review unless the place is really good or really bad. So, this place, is really good. For food, the sashimi is fresh and the rice, oh bay, the rice might just be the best sushi rice I have ever had in the inland empire area. For the service, they are super friendly and kids friendly. They don't constantly bother you but just bring you whatever you need on the table, and in my case, the napkins, since I have two kids with me at the time. The place looks like recent remodeled, so it is clean and new. Overall, really nice place, I would definitely come again. read more

Bengee Sushi - House Salad, at least what it was...lol - Japanese Near Me - Chino, California

Excellent food. Cool metal/tin water cups. The creamy shrimp roll was good enough to overcome our forever favorite: the California roll which took 2nd place. Food was quite quick-made with precision, symmetry, and excellence. Complimentary soup for everyone would express more generosity. (Affordable Bento boxes/Combo Nigiri's would have bettered our visit-but times have changed). Service was quick and excellent. If you have Fedex business around lunch, drop in here for a filling sushi meal served quickly-or a hit the spot roll to go, for those on-the-go who need a kick of energy without the food hangover. Fewer people during weekday mornings for a more personal and calming experience for the sensory overwhelmed. We really liked this place. read more

Hidden gem sushi spot! This could be your new go to sushi date night spot! Everything from appetizers to dessert was really good. The garlic chili edamame and miso soup was the perfect starter.

Our waitress recommended the curry tornado omu rice & I'm so glad she did, even my toddler loved it!! I highly recommend Bengee Sushi! read more

Tried Bengee Sushi in Chino last week and really loved it! The space is nicely decorated, and the food was on point. We had a variety of sushi -- salmon, halibut, red snapper, torched crawfish roll, and the creamy shrimp roll -- all super fresh and flavorful. We also ordered the curry omurice, tornado omurice, and creamy uni udon -- all were delicious and paired great with the sushi. Finished off with ice cream for dessert. Definitely a spot I'll be coming back to! read more

We were immediately greeted as we walked in by the server. Drinks and food came out immediately after ordering. Service was really good. My favorite out of everything was definitely the Bengee House Special Combination (10 pc). Must try! It was perfect! I would come back only for that. So worth it. Spicy garlic edamame was also good. Every place makes it differently, but I like this one. Everything else was still good though. Spider roll in my opinion needs to be crunchier (the soft shell crab inside), but it wasn't bad enough to ding off a star. Great place. Came on a Saturday night around 6:30pm and not much people. Special salmon roll was just typical. Flavor. Special yam roll got me going 0.0. I like the pork sung that they have though. It was worth a try but not the most memorable one. Restroom was clean. read more

Food 2/5 Tempura - BAD, we couldn't even finish it. My vegetables were too charred and bitter. Tempura batter should be light/crunchy/fluffy but this was oily/soggy/thicc af. The dipping sauce was also a weird flavor. Disgusting all around. Chefs Sashimi - this is where they earned the 2 stars for food or else it would be 0. The fish was indeed pretty fresh and the presentation was beautiful. All the shellfish lacked sweetness and wasn't as fresh as the fish, but it was decent. Chefs nigiri - same as above but the rice was a bit under seasoned (no subtle taste of vinegar or sweetness) but the rice softness/doneness was spot on. Ambiance 2/5 Our corner smelled like piss. It was very unpleasant like we were eating in a dive bar. The sushi chef is also the DJ, not his fault we didn't like the music but it was sometimes too loud and sometimes too soft (he kept tinkering with it). Service was fine no complaints there. But we won't be coming back. Btw, I think this is a chinese owned establishment, not authentic Japanese. There's just nothing about it that's better than ojiya so we will continue to go to ojiya. read more

While in Chino Hills for the evening, my friends and I decided to give this place a try. We were seated immediately on a Saturday night, with no wait, which was a pleasant surprise. We ordered the lemon salmon roll, mango salmon roll, salmon carpaccio, and tornado omurice. The rolls were decent but nothing remarkable. The imitation crab, in particular, tasted like something you'd find in supermarket sushi, which made the dishes feel more ordinary. Overall, the food lacked a unique touch--everything felt like something I could easily make at home. The lemon salmon roll was the exception and the standout of the meal, though. The tornado curry omurice was fine, but again, nothing special--it tasted like a homemade curry. The salmon carpaccio, however, was my favorite--very buttery with thick, tender slices. The service was decent, though the staff seemed like they were still settling into their routines. This didn't bother me too much, but it did contribute to the overall feeling that things were a bit disjointed. While I likely wouldn't return, I think there are other sushi restaurants nearby that offer better quality at a better price. read more

I've lived in chino hills my whole life and noticed that this location has always been a forever changing sushi spot (previously kula & kiku sushi). Once bengee initially opened I had no interest. After the first time trying bengee a year back, I've noticed much needed interior renovations and a welcoming vibe. The food was surprisingly delicious with high quality fish and uniquely cooked dishes - like the kimchi omelette fried rice and super tuna roll. They also used to have really cool ladder sushi platings for their sushi platters! A year later to my most recent visit, I had much higher expectations that immediately got shot down. I noticed there was completely different management. We ordered hand rolls and beef udon and I noticed that the fish quality de-graded and the beef tasting a bit off (a little gamy). As for the service, don't even get me started. To keep it short, it was very biased and non-existent. Overall disappointed in what used to be a great place and won't be coming back. read more

5 stars!!! If you know, you know! This spot is a hidden gem. The wagyu? Melt-in-your-mouth perfection. The sashimi? So fresh it practically swims onto your plate. From start to finish, everything was top-tier. It's a cozy, intimate space, perfect for date night or catching up with someone you actually like. The service was warm and attentive without ever feeling overbearing. You can tell they care. Highly recommend if you're looking for quality over hype. This place gets it. read more

Visited on NYE around 6pm and it was slow but by the time we left the restaurant was about halfway full. Lots of seating; clean sleek design. The server was friendly, then a little short, then friendly again. At one point I asked my boyfriend if he seemed mad because I asked for no masago on a roll. Could've been because he was the only server and may have understandably been overwhelmed. As for the food, the spicy garlic edamame was standard and good. The yellowtail nigiri was fresh and the fish was like butter. Unfortunately the fatty tuna nigiri was disappointing because both pieces of fish were stringy. I actually had to spit my piece out and thought it contained a bone at first. The Baked Scallop Roll (R2) was OK. Hot scallops on top of a cold roll underneath was a little different for us and my boyfriend didn't eat all of his pieces. The Super Albacore Roll (R16) and Super Salmon Roll (R14) were both fresh and very good. Would definitely order them again. Prices were reasonable. $80 for an app, two orders or nigiri, and three rolls. Overall, I would (and will) visit again. read more

First time having dinner on Christmas Day and it's pretty decent. The quality of the fish is better than some places in the area, sushi and sashimi is fresh and their pricing is pretty reasonable. The service is attentive even they only had one server. Seafood Fried Udon is very good and also their takoyaki. My only suggestion is I wish they had more choices on the menu, like udon, more salad options or even dinner combo. Definitely one of my go to place when I'm craving sushi. read more

It opens at 5 pm, we arrived at 6 pm to try the $79 13-course omakase tasting, but they told me no more, all sold out (I was shocked). The restaurant was not even full, only like 15-20 ppl, 4 tables. Perhaps you should remove it from the menu or just put a reservation only for omakase. Ended up I ordered the Bengee Tornado Omurice, Chirashi bowl, and the Negitoro special spoon (the appetizer). I was expecting the appetizer to be served first; guess what, it was the last one that showed up. I was speechless. The food was just average. I even heard the little girl from the table next to me say the food doesn't taste good. TBH, I've never seen any restaurant run like yours. It makes me wonder how you got those 5-star reviews. But one thing is for sure, I won't visit again read more

My family came here one time many years ago under a different management. We came for late lunch on Dec 21. The service and ambiance was nice. Ordered Bento box lunch box. I selected Chicken Teriyaki and Salmon Fried Rice. The chicken was very tender flavorful. It came with rice, salad and miso soup. The salmon fried rice was something different and was not bad at all. Seafood Udon - it came with mussel and scallops- The flavor was tasty. Baked Salmon Roll - it was perfect roll and delicious. Tempura Shrimp Roll -- perfect roll and delicious Overall the food was delicious but it was sort of overpriced. read more

Came here with a few friends of mine because someone saw that it had good reviews and also we were craving sushi. Didn't know what to expect, but we were hopeful. This place wasn't too busy for a weeknight, which was great for us. The waitress was very attentive and took our orders promptly. We ended up geting 3 different rolls, the uni pasta, and the salmon fried rice. All of them were really good! We also were feeling adventurous and order the fruit roll. Not our favorite as the sweet and savory flavors didn't mix that well, but we were glad we tried it. Overall, a great experience and highly recommend trying for yourself!

This is based on the online order, Ubereats experience. The qaulity of the fish was subpar and the amount of sushi was low. Unfortunately this place felt over priced and the sushi was only one step up from the sushi I sampled at Stater Brothers... so either the sushi at Staters is amazing or this place is suspect.
