Recently went back for the first time in a few years and was disappointed that they don't really have bento options anymore. However the poke bowl and lychee lemonade I got were delicious! I ordered ahead and my order was ready right on time, very friendly staff too! read more

This place has turned to trash. It's been over 4 years since I was last here; back then they were booming with customers and they had a lot more staff. Today, I walked in and the inside was dead; they had one table, a hostess girl in the front, one sushi chef and maybe a cook or two in the back. You would assume with them being dead, the service would be fast but no. It was extremely slow!! We waited 57 minutes to get 3 sushi rolls. A table who came in after us asked for a refund and left bc they took so long. Ordered: Miami roll, Mt. Fuji roll, deep fried Cali roll The sushi was good. They got a one star because of horrible service. Side note: I see they replaced their servers with self serve kiosks to take your order. I hate that everything is going AI/electronic; there's no more intimacy and human interaction anymore. read more

I remember loving Bento in college but I haven't had the chance to try it again since, and honestly I just think of it as another chain now. But I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of their poke bowls! The fish tastes pretty fresh, and I love that they have eel as a protein option too. I do wish you could pick more additions and toppings, but it's still pretty filling with what they give you. read more

Literally the worst food I've ever had in my life, this place is horrible, service is just as bad and even the water smells like rotten eggs, wouldn't recommend this place to my worst enemy. read more

What a shame that all of the other Bento locations are no longer in Jacksonville, but as always, the food here was very good! The menu offers plenty of options and never disappoints. The miso soup is great and only a dollar more when added to a sushi order. The service was also excellent, even though you don't really interact with staff until your food is brought to the table. The restaurant was nice and clean. We'll definitely continue coming back and supporting this location, I'd love to see it stay in business for many, many more years! read more

I havent been into Bento in years, so we were in the area and popped in for a quick bite. You order on electronic tablets then they bring the food to your table. I got the Miami roll and have to say I was so disappointed when it came to the table it looked so boring and definitely not worth the $16 price. There was nothing outstanding about it, it wasn't bad just not what I was expecting. Kids meal was good, and the people working were very sweet. Should have tried something else. read more

Good place for a quick lunch. They have bento boxes and sushi. Place has booth and tables, not good for extra large parties. Plenty of parking, it's located in a plaza. They switched over to ordering your food on a electronic ordering system read more

Absolutely the worst experience. Waited 30 min for poke bowls, when the poke bowls came out they forgot sauce, our soup, and other miscellaneous things. Customer service is trash there's no sense of urgency. 30 minutes for a mid poke bowl if I could revoke my tip I would. Truly a disappointment. read more

Nice for take away meal as something different after turkey Some items had way more noodles than protein read more

We came here and ordered during sushi day, so it might not be the best judge of how good it was, but the portion was tiny and the sushi was comparable to supermarket sushi. I think we'd probably had a better experience with supermarket sushi honestly. read more

I ordered the build your own bowl the same way I did at every poke bowl restaurant and it just did not hit. The rice was hard and not good. It takes about 30 min when other places are like 15 max. I've had so many poke bowls and this one is at the bottom of my list. Portions are also not sufficient it's like half the size of a normal bowl. :( read more

- Drinks 16oz: [Reality] You got a baby cup to sip out of. All drinks come in this small size and for that price, boy.. go to a gas station near by and get a drink from there. - Protein: I've had their Katsu before and you would get a whole piece of chicken that would cover 4/5 of the rice. But apparently if you choose multiple proteins (which costs more) they will remove your original amount of chicken and throw in these tasteless tofu on) so now I'm missing 3/5 of my originally deserved chicken WTF?! - Japanese Curry (DO NOT GET) it's literally just roux from a box just water and roux, no potatoes, carrots, marinated meat chunks nothing. That's a damn injustice calling it Japanese curry. It's just a slurry. + Portion size: that's the only good thing. If and only if they portion the ratio correctly. Because they do come in a decent sized bowl. For that price just ain't worth it, find a small local Japanese location, they'll have some integrity and hook you up. read more

Grabbed a bubble tea with my mom while out shopping. The restaurant has outside and inside seating. They also offer a happy hour. We ordered a strawberry milk tea and Thai tea. The staff was sweet explaining the various teas to my mom. FYI they are cashless, so bring another form of payment. The inside was a great escape from the hot sun. Drinks were great! I explored the food options and will have to come back to try them soon. read more

If you like bento boxes, hibachi, etc then you will like Be to Asian Kitchen and Sushi in Town Center. They have both indoor and outdoor seating. It is your standard order at the counter, get a number and they bring it to you. We had the Garlic Broccoli Bento Box and a Noodle Bowl with Mongolian Chicken. We also had a Hot Lava sushi roll. It was more food than we could eat as the portions are large, especially the bowl. I chose low mein noodles it you can get udon if you wish. The food came out hot and was delicious. The sushi was large and delicious. The Hot Lava is covered in warm crab meat which was good but was a little heavy. Overall, this place is delicious and we will become frequent visitors. read more

I used to frequent the Bento in Gainesville, and when I saw there was on in Jacksonville I was eager to order. I love Bento. I placed an order for takeout and there was a significant wait past when our food was estimated to be ready. The restaurant only had about 5 tables full. While waiting for our food, several cooking employees were told to leave for break. I've worked in restaurants for years and value employee breaks, but I felt this could have been timed better. Whatever. HERE IS WHAT GOT ME Then a woman named Jasmine (I think this was her name, I could be mistaken) came to the front to deliver the washed blender top compartments and was told that it was obvious she washed them too well and with SOAP when in reality "everyone else just quickly sprays them with water" and to not wash them next time, just quickly spray. She was told the rest of the staff only actually wash the blender tops once a day at most. This kind of grossed me out and is definitely not what I like to know is happening behind the scenes. Especially when I was already drinking something that had been made with dairy. I wish I had video proof or something, but I didn't go in there looking for a problem and I'm not one to record. Finally got my food almost 30 minutes after the estimated ready time. Also heard staff commenting on hot regulars and planning to ask them on dates. Kind of gross. Kind of unprofessional. Probably won't be back. Wishing I was still blissfully unaware. Bummer. read more

Super tasty! I got the crunch roll and taro and Oreo shake. I used to get this meal in Orlando when I went to UCF. I was so happy to find they had one in Jacksonville. The lady who brought our food was as super pleasant! A must try place for a quick lunch. We went after doing a wine tasting at Coopers Hawk! read more

My go to is the teriyaki chicken bowl with rice and green beans and honestly I don't think I'll ever try anything else again. I love the overall ambiance of the restaurant as well. The service is pretty average though. read more

Sushi combo was light, but worth the price! We shared this as a snack! I recommend their yum yum sauce on the side! There were not many people there and our order took about 20 minutes which is a little slow in my opinion. read more

The sushi was OK. The price was good. The service was not so good. Waited about 30 minutes for my sushi. I was by myself....one order. Don't know if I will go back. read more

One and only takeout order I placed and salmon is missing from poke bowl! Waste of money and time

Bento wasn't my first choice, but I needed something quick and convenient between running errands and yoga. Food wasn't bad, just average. It's your typical Asian chain restaurant, so I wasn't expecting anything great. The boba menu is basic, but the jasmine tea was pretty decent. I ordered a veggie roll with a side of eel sauce, which was packaged nicely and affordable, but vastly underwhelming. There are a few other Japanese places across the street I would recommend over this. read more

If you are coming here to get good sushi, please stop yourself . I've had better tasting sushi from a grocery store . First time there and i asked the lady what i should get , the spring rolls didn't taste authentic ... the thai sauce that came with it it's 100% from a bottle ... The sushi literally melted in my mouth as if it was fake ... Not good food but the customer service was really nice read more

I never leave bad reviews but this place has gotten so bad with service. I have waited 30+ minutes for simple sushi roll and soup with only a couple tables seated. The young ladies working obviously has no motivation to be working on a Saturday night and it appears there is no management structure in place. I used to love coming here but now it seems to be more of a hassle to come here. read more

The food is good - but they made a mistake on the order, ya know because they are human! Let's take a chill pill people sometimes mistakes are made - it's what you do with that error that makes a difference. They definitely made it right with sincerity and also comped an appetizer! It gets busy so plan accordingly, and be prepared to wait for sushi read more

I was looking for something to eat after shopping at REI and noticed this place. With tofu on the menu, it was a go.

The place was casual and seemed to be a popular spot for takeout. read more

This was my first time trying this place, my mom loves it here so it came highly recommended. We had a poke bowl, Miami roll but I wanted it panko fried and crab wontons, everything was delicious. No complaints! These 3 items came out to $31, but it honestly was quality food, tasty and good portions. Right now due to covid, only outside and take out is available. Can't wait to try some more food off their menu. I was so excited when I saw they offered Japanese white sauce as one of the sauces, yesssssss!!!! read more

Anytime I'm hungry at Town Center it's a hard sell NOT to go to this place. I love it! The customizable poke bowls hit your fancy no matter what you're craving- Mango, pineapple, edamame, seaweed salad, avocado. Can't decide between rice and salad? Go for both! The salmon is delicious and the spicy tuna will clear out your sinuses. (Read: it's good!) The sauce options are fantastic too, I really like the Yuzu ponzu. It's a little expensive but the portions are large. And they have a nice selection of boba teas, I recommend the Thai boba. Yum! read more
