    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.

    This place was cool, but also a little bit strange. You order from a screen and not a human - plus 2 stars for that! It's on par as far as price, for what you get IMO it's decent. You take a tent number and find a table so they can bring you your food. That's fine but our food didn't come all at once. They brought 2 bowls of food to our table and shoved both into our faces, I did not order a bowl and they were asking what my husband ordered? Once he reminded her she took the other bowl away, at the same time I was saying I ordered a bento box not a bowl... she ended up taking that bowl to the people next to us. Gross. Then my plate showed up, and my husbands empty cup to go to the drink machine. I ordered a thai tea that showed up later. After this they brought my sauce for dipping, I choose orange, it was good, but tasted like sweet and sour. Who knows if they got it wrong, and finally mid meal they brought over our eggs rolls on tiny plates. It was just a strange way of delivering the food. It did taste good and as mentioned above the price is worth it. I got the tofu and chicken meal, which is +2$ to both but it seems to have been half portions of each, so not sure the up-charge but here were are. I would like to try another location to see what it's like, probably won't come all the way out back for this place, but if in the area I wouldn't rule it out. It's fast, casual and modern. Oh the bento box, which is around $15 included: rice, noodles, salad with ginger dressing, protein choice, and garlic string beans, and your choice of dipping sauce.

    Causal fast food. You order at a kiosk. Decent variety of Asian selections. The portions are generous and value for the price satisfactory. The food was served quickly and hot from the kitchen. The staff tonight was businesslike.

    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

    New to area so trying new Chinese places for take out…read more First had Hot and Sour soup and it was very very spicy, but it had a good portion of tofu in it. I had one from another Chinese restaurant a week ago and it was more medium spicy (my preference) and had mushrooms and more ingredients- which was better. Also ordered bourbon chicken, pork lo mein and fried rice (white rice comes with dish). The sauce on chicken was not great tasting...and the chicken was dry and hard to chew. I would not order again. As a comparison, the best bourbon chicken I have had comes from Chicken Kitchen but none are in Hollywood. I did not like the lo mein. This item can vary from different places but it just was not satisfying. Also, I like my noodles long and these were chopped shorter. The white rice and fried rice were fine. If one dish is off, it's not a big deal but when three items you paid for were not great.... I think we had tried this restaurant a few weeks ago and what we ordered at that time was ok. There are many Chinese restaurants in this area, so this may not be our favorite. When there is this much competition- you really have to be on your game!!

    They sent my order with missing items and treated me like crap when I called to complain about it…read more Food is below average anyway, waste of money but they should get a manager who actually has respect for the customers. Thanks, but will NEVER ORDER AGAIN, and let me tell you, I've NEVER given a poor review.
