text: I have learned to be especially wary of one star reviews as they tend to reflect some sort of vindictiveness not generally based on the actual merits of a restaurant This however is a one star review based only on Bentos surprising ability to disappoint even the most meager of expectationsnnMy girlfriend and I went to Bento on a whim because it is very convenient to our place and is cheap We figured that given the general rarity of bad Asian meals and our low expectations based on Bentos prices it would easily be a worthwhile mealnnWe were wrong nnI was not expecting great sushi at Bentos sushi buffet After all sushi quality fish is expensive and all you can eat is generally even more expensive in my experience nearly at a different lunch buffet Even with the expectation that fish was going to be scarce and rice plentiful I found that Bento outdid themselves nnI actually got some comedic value out of how artfully they slathered their rolls in dark sauces to obscure the fact that some of the rolls had no fish at all in them In fact it was the Bento Special roll that I dissected only to find there to be literally nothing but rice in its depths As an appreciator of comedy and occasionally of art I have to tip my hat to Bentos chef for his masterful sushi tromp loeil nnThe other rolls were mostly just deep fried chicken wrapped around rice with a very very small amount of what was presumably fish pink solids Their rendition of the venerable Philly Roll contained jalapenos cream cheese and nothing else HmmmmnnMy girlfriend was smarter though not by a wide margin and went with one of the Special Bento boxes Her General Tsos Tofu was edible though certainly not moreso than a frozen Asian meal from the supermarketnnThe last notable part of our meal was the bizarrely terrible ginger sauce which we both tried Having never had anything but tasty ginger dressings at sushi restaurants we were both unpleasantly surprised by just how bad this wasnnSummary If you know that you are getting yourself into some seriously low quality sushi and bento box fare this might be just the spot for you If you like me would much rather have fresh and tasty sushi rolls for a similar price do not be suckered in by the all you can eat sign
