Sushi Bento - Spicy Tuna Roll - Japanese Near Me - Indio, California

3.5 stars and the definition of a hole-in-the-wall. This sushi restaurant sits behind CVS and is pretty much hidden from the world. It's location and secrecy definitely played to our benefit since all other nearby restaurants had a 2+ hour wait during the holidays. Lucky for us, we were able to call up Sushi Bento and pick up our meal within 20 minutes. Our order consisted of Baked Salmon roll, Rainbow roll, a chicken bowl, gyoza, and miso soup. We also asked for a few sides of eel sauce and spicy mayo on the side. They meal was definitely tasty and large in size.. but it didn't quite blow me away. read more

Happy that we found this shop for a quick bite thanks to Yelp. We were in the area after returning from JTNP and wanted a quick bite for a late dinner. We got their baked lobster roll and atarashi roll, and these rolls satisfied our cravings! Solid presentation for take out and tastes good! Price to portions are fair and expected. It looks like they are a mom and pop shop too so we did not mind the extra wait when they were busy with orders from other guests there and called in orders. We would come back to try more of their menu if in the area again! They have fun names to their specialty rolls. read more

Best Sushi in town! Been going here since day 1 and it never disappoints. The Chef's Special Roll is the best Deep Fried roll! Hawaiian Roll is my favorite fresh roll! Hole in a wall for sure due to location but the family here always treats/feeds us right. read more

Went in because this place had such great reviews. I had the number 5 roll (yes the roll's name is the number 5 roll) and it was amazing. And the prices for everything is very reasonable and their non-sushi items were super cheap read more

Returned 4 years later since my first review-- the quality has gotten even better. The place is deceivingly impressive, delivering the best bang for buck for quality and taste. I don't ever leave reviews; however, the best mom and pop shops like these deserve all the love! I don't think it's about giving slack and being generally nice to smaller businesses, but really differentiating the truly good spots that should be separated from the rest. Give this place a try, I guarantee that you'd be back for more. read more

This is a little restaurant that is tucked in a little shopping center. Dont let the outside fool you. Its really good sushi. The restaurant was empty... But Many to go orders were coming through. The staff is very nice and the chef brought over a special surprise not on the menu that was so good. The rolls are unique and have a really good combination to them. Was really happy with the size of the rolls as well. We ordered 5 rolls with many appetizers. Even ordered an extra roll and appetizer to go. We really enjoyed the food here. Thank you for the great food. We will be back soon. read more

This place may be small but it is mighty. When your food is served be prepared to receive a visual work of art. Colors, shapes, textures and taste are sure to amaze. We did not want to leave and I was disappointed I could not finish my plate since it was too long of a drive to take home leftovers. Next time I'll bring the cooler! This place deserves five stars for the prompt and thoughtful service, the exquisite combination of ingredients and the outstanding food freshness. I've been to other sushi places and the freshness is an issue at quite a few, but definitely not here. I completely enjoyed the Mango roll it  includes; cream cheese, shrimp tempura, crab, avocado, cucumber, mango and Serrano pepper.  I tried a lovely bite of the Firecracker roll it includes; deep fried shrimp, avocado, cream cheese, spicy crab and crunchy stuff on top. My daughter just loved this roll!  The Tuna Tatkaki salad looks amazing! The chef brought us a special plate, one for each of us! We look forward to coming back on our next desert trip and wish they had a sister restaurant close to us. A shout out to Jacque for finding this superb place for her Gramma and Mom! read more

I'm here on vacation and decided to find the nearest sushi restaurant. This is the best sushi I've had in a very very long time. I'm a garlic lover so I ordered the spicy garlic edamame which was soooo amazing, I ordered 2 of them. The salmon lover, poke, Baja, and salmon sashimi was all outstanding! The salmon lover came with spicy sauce but because my kids were eating it, I ordered it on the side and my god, it was sooooo good! I will definitely be back again. read more

Sushi was great with friendly service. We tried several apps which were all prepared to perfection. I had the spicy tuna and spicy salmon. Others had dragon roll, philly roll, and California roll. read more

For what it is, the sushi is really good. Located in a strip mall, it definitely doesn't seem like you'd find sushi here but don't hate on it. It definitely wasn't busy inside but I got the impression they do a lot of Togo orders. Service was quick and sushi came out fast. The gyoza was really good too, you could tell it was made fresh! read more

We were on our way back from AZ and really wanted something fresh. We originally mapped it to a different location & that one was all out of rice. We mapped it to Sushi Bento, based on reviews. Don't be deceived by the location. Small little place in a shopping center, but soooo good. We got the Baked Salmon, Baked Scallop, & the 3 Amigos roll. I'm not kidding when I say it was amazing. Full of flavor and the rolls are HUGE! They're spicy tuna is actually spicy . Definitely saving this to my favorites for our next road trip to AZ. read more

Sushi Bento - Baked Scallop Roll & 3 Amigos Rolls - Japanese Near Me - Indio, California

Definitely one of the best sushi places I've tried and this is in the middle of a desert. We ordered the baked scallop roll, coachella roll, and I can't remember the third roll but they were all delicious. The interior is pretty small and cozy but this is a hidden gem in Indio. Definitely visiting again next time I'm back for Coachella ;) Great way to start Day 1 of coachella! read more

It wasn't perfect sushi because it was falling apart . It was supposed to be sticky. My husband and I ordered Japanese Edamame Seeds and it was hard to pop the beans out of Japanese edamame seeds. The service isn't giving enough napkins. It's nice to eat but not enough. read more

Hidden gem. Spicy Ramen and Udon were excellent, very flavorful broth on both. Rolls were large and delicious. Good quality fresh fish, sauces well done and subtle/not over powering. read more

First of all customer service was mediocre. We were told that our order was going to take an hour. We went to pick up our order an hour later and was given the completely wrong order. The rolls were okay. Ingredients were not that fresh. Also was given very little wasabi and ginger. It's not the best sushi I've had, but it still hit the spot. read more

The sushi here was just plain awful. We ordered a variety of rolls and they all were flavorless and the fish did not taste fresh. There was nothing exciting about these rolls whatsoever... on a scale of 1-10, the food was about a 3. No one got sick (which was good). The presentation of the rolls was about the only thing positive with the sushi. The inside was small and not much seating. No ambiance. This place seemed like a "take out" place. I honestly would have given 1-Star if not for the very polite/friendly customer service. Definitely would not go back. read more

Hands down the best sushi place for me! I always love going to satisfy my cravings of sushi! The desert dots and firecracker roll are my favorite! Trust me when I say you have to try this place out! The chef and staff are awesome! read more

My family makes this our dinner spot when we stop in town. Always fresh and everything is full of flavor!

I guess 1 star?? If I could give zero stars I would. This was garbage. In fact, we threw it directly into the trash. I don't even think my cat would it. It was ground up tuna and old crab that was inedible. Extremely disappointing. Don't waste your money. read more

I should've came to this spot right when I moved here. Lived around this area for 5 years and haven't tried this place until today. The amount of fish and how fresh the fish are was amazing. Usually the ratio of rice over fish are 2/3 rice and 1/3 fish but this place was the other way around. Will def come back for a take out sushi date! read more

So delicious! The place is small but it's one of those hidden gems in Indio ! Food and service was amazing ! Will definitely go again! 5 stars read more

Have not been here since 2019. So glad they are still in business. First they added more tables and booths. I had the baked scallops over a California roll and the eel avocado roll. Both delicious. I would have again. My husband had the Indio roll. He liked it. Currently on get here while traveling to & from Tucson, Az. Only one person working the front of the restaurant. A lot of takeout going on. read more

This place has the greatest sushi! The rolls are so large that just one will fill you up which is unusual for me. The staff here are super nice as well! On our last order there was a misunderstanding about which roll we wanted to order and they made a replacement no charge! Would recommend! read more

One of the best sushi roll places I've ever eaten at. Would HIGHLY recommend if you are ever in the area. (Esp loved the baked lobster roll)

Sushi bento had nice service and even better food. The sushi was fresh and delicious. Highly recommend the 111 roll. Will definitely be coming back! read more

My go to spot for sushi in the desert- actually the only spot I'll get sushi out here! Prices are pretty reasonable too

Super slow service, perhaps because there was only three employees in total. The food was not the best. The tempura in my roll was hard and cold - not freshly made. The baked lobster roll was extremely salty. In about 30 min after I ate a few pieces of each roll I threw up. I don't think I would ever come back again. read more

Came across this place on the way home from Arizona. We were craving sushi and decided to stop here... we ordered a few different rolls to try them out... let me start off by saying the rolls were huge. You definitely get your money's worth... Good thing we all ordered 1 roll each because we weren't expecting them to be so big... they were pretty good, they also offer other options like ramen. If you like sushi and live in Indio this is a good place to try... read more

I ordered a sushi roll called "shrimp tempura" roll and a miso soup via post mates. I wish there was a description or pictures of the roll because I had no idea I was going to be eating avocado and rice for dinner. Literally there is a ridiculously small piece of shrimp in each rolled and the rest it's stuffed with avocado. The "tempura" part of it its almost non existent crumbs of tempura sprinkles on top. Not happy, I had about 2 rolls before realizing I'm just eating avocado for dinner, can't even taste the shrimp. read more

Absolute hidden Gem. The service here for one is outstanding and very polite! Despite how small it may be inside, it definitely delivers with the food. The Gyoza's are some of the best I've ever had, the rice entrees are delicious and very filling, The sushi rolls are Packed and insanely fresh! This place is a tucked away gem and probably the best sushi place I've been to while living here in the valley. Will definitely be another add to my list of food spots here. read more

This sushi restaurant is amazing. The rolls are about 2 inches tall & about an inch and a half wide (chopsticks for reference). I believe both the rolls were about $12 each but for that size, it was a great deal. All the rolls are made fresh with fresh fish. It was very delicious! The service is amazing too. They're very attentive & we soon realized that it's a family business. We're going to come back soon & bring a bigger party. 100% recommended! read more
