    Bento is delicious and we were happy to see a location in Dania Pointe! We ordered on a busy Friday night thru the app and still got our food in a good time. ++Teriyaki chicken bowls ++Wok fried rice ++Roti Canai (add extra roti!!) ++dumplings The roti canai is so so good, and the amount of curry given is incredible, it's good to order extra roti and then I always enjoy the curry sauce later the next day. There is free parking in this plaza but may require some extra walking depending on when you go because it's a busy plaza for nightlife/families/movies/restaurants/shopping. There's a free parking garage also but free parking everywhere.

    I'm addicted to Bento. Any time anyone asks where we should eat, Bento is my answer 99% of the time. I went to this location in Dania Pointe and it was a great experience. The build-your-own poke bowl is what I get most of the time. I'm so glad they added the smaller size option, because I can never finish the full-size one. When I got it, it looked deceptively small, but it was still a generous portion. This was my entire lunch and I still didn't finish, and everything was delicious as always. They also had great specials: $2.88 milk teas for lunar new year! Combined with my rewards from the app, my lunch was only $10! A great deal for the quality. Service was great, and the staff were friendly and helpful; the only thing is it did take a while to get my food. No big deal because I wasn't in a rush. I'll always be a massive bento fan, and this location with outdoor seating in the middle of a nice shopping is wonderful!

    Visited this Asian restaurant for the first time. The restaurant has a great location, delicious food and lots of parking available. Great menu and a very comfortable indoors and outdoors seating. The dynamic of ordering is very efficient, lots of pictures and easy navigation while I ordered my meal. There are a lot of options to choose and a variety of meals that also includes noodle bowls, sushi and fried rice combos. I ordered the steak + shrimp (combo), with the fried rice bowl and veggies and an order of the Cali sushi. The rice bowl was delicious, the steak was tender and had a lot of flavor. The sushi was savory and had fresh ingredients. Definitely recommended.

    Lack of flavor and freshness in some dishes. Staff is nice. Food is hot but nothing to write home about. What a shame. Just looks nice really Ordered the family pack and all 4 bentos were nasty! General Tso chicken was old and gross just a ball of bread. Mongolian Chicken was nothing but onions and peppers with a couple flavorless pieces of chicken Chicken veggie stir fry flavorless Katsu chicken was okay but flavorless Curry sauce tasted like water I had to add so much salt to everything and in the end we just ordered from another Chinese spot. Crab Rangoon was good but didn't have enough filling it was all wonton wrapper Miso soup was good (best) Side of green beans were good but they didn't cut the ends off and it was just hard stems :/ if you see on the pic I cut the ends all off. Side lomain noodles were the best thing on that order next to the soup! Flavor was good. Salads were good but again Dressing was watered down I know times are hard but don't charge us for watered down sauce and flavorless food Called and got a store credit Make an order the following day and bought some stuff on top of it to make it worth the drive Today I make the order and go to pick it up I ordered apart from the 2 COMP'D bowls -2 lomain noodles -1 crab Rangoon It was bzy and a manager wasn't called over so I Was charged me for the entire meal! I noticed once I got home Called them back but No one answers the phone Saturday at 8pm Very annoyed. I will say Daniella has made the experience better as she seems to care and called back to check on the mistake. 5 stars for her I have yet another credit so let's see how that goes

    Update number 3 Today is 7/13/25 it's been 8 days since my initial review, does not let me edit my previous review anymore to add an update so here it is My emails to supposed manager where ghosted , no reply no text no call. So I forwarded my emails and complaint to corporate cause they say they care on their website. Let's see if anyone returns a email reply. At this point I'm not holding my breath. I also filed a complaint with BBB. I will also be contacting my bank to get a refund through them since I made good faith attempts to resolve this with the store but was ghosted no reply of any kind.

    Was shopping at Dania Pointe when I realized I needed dinner so I decided on Bento, as I've never ate there before. The options and savings were endless. Whether you want hibachi, drunken noodles, sushi etc they have it. Stopped by on a Tuesday and realized they had a BOGO on boba tea and the teriyaki chicken bowl was also only $9. Overall, I went with the General Tso Bento Box and had some edamame (with garlic) and Krab Rangoon on the side. Everything was pretty good, nothing extraordinary but it did the job. I appreciated that I had leftovers and I enjoyed the option between indoor and outdoor dining.

    Are you able to cater to vegan/plant based diets? I see you have veggies and tofu available but which sauces/curries do not have any fish, oyster, chicken stock?

    This place pretends to have vegan O'Shea but the cross contaminate a lot. I don't recommend ordering anything from bento

    Confused. The website, Google, and Yelp seem to have different information for the hours and…read morelocation. We wanted to try here and I placed an online order that's supposed to ready at 2:30pm, but the restaurant is closed. Again, on here and their website, it says they're open. But physically at the restaurant, it's not open, it's dark inside. I call the restaurant at 5pm, when they're supposedly open for dine-in and told me that they called me to discuss my order. I check after and they did call me, but I don't answer unknown numbers and they never left any voice messages. So he tells me they can refund the order, great, problem solved, right? Nope. I get off the phone and then receive an email from someone saying they wanted my address because they'll deliver my order. Confused, I call the restaurant back and end up speaking with someone else. We ask when the order was completed since we placed this order at 2pm? When did they make this order and are deciding to deliver us food that's been sitting for hours? They're telling me that they'll deliver the order, but they don't have the matcha tiramisu, a $9.88 item, so they'll use that as a "delivery fee." I refuse and tell them that their website let me complete the order, we were there to pick-up the order as mentioned on the confirmation, but they weren't open. The matcha tiramisu was processed, why would I get penalized for it? So he then offers to change it with something else, I say okay and give him our address. My husband also checks GPS and tells him how far and how long it'll be to deliver (30+ minutes). The guy says okay, we get off the phone. Problem solved again? Nope. I get an email saying, "We apologize but we won't be able to drop it off. It is too far of a drive for our associate . We'll process a refund as soon as possible." Guess I will wait for my refund since I wasn't told how long it'll be until I receive it. I'd avoid or call before placing orders. This place is crazy and confusing - and not just the hours. Told we'd get refunded, then get our food delivered, then not delivered.

    We went in without many expectations and ended up being pleasantly surprised…read more We ordered edamame, the volcano roll, and the stan roll, everything was amazing. Super fresh, well prepared, and full of flavor. You can really tell the quality of the ingredients, especially in the sushi. The place was pretty quiet with not many people, which made us hesitate at first... but we decided to give it a try because of the good reviews, and it was definitely the right call. We would absolutely come back

They start you off with a glass of complimentary champagne which was light, crispy and special to toast off whatever special occasion you are celebrating or just a special night dinner with a friend or a loved one. It was a 14 course meal for $250 per person with drinks not included though service charge will be automatically included in the bill. Each dish of the 14 courses is prepared with superb attention to detail and chefs' passion and love for sushi. The chefs also take the time to explain origin of the main ingredients used in preparation of the dishes and how some are prepared. I have uploaded photos to share a fragment of perfection from the evening. Great job and heart felt thanks to chef Sunny, chef Tina, managers Sam, and Fernando for going all out accommodating us for an amazing omakase experience! I strongly recommend everyone to try Oku by Takato for an omakase experience and by the end of the experience you won't regret any bit of the $250 per person. The experience will have been worth it!
