Bento Ya - Los Angeles

#10 Mods: Pork +Teriyaki Chicken Salmon: My little piece of salmon had an excellent taste IMO cooked very well or just how I like it? Who knows, sometimes I think my taste is universal ;p !! Tempura: I believe the tempura should be less greasy? I enjoyed the veggie tempura, I had it before and *the breading panko, it was very dry crunchy. Egg Roll: Yes, yes, smol crunchyboi had majestic crunch. Rice: It's rice, it's a rice cooker. I love rice though, especially whenI want to eat 2000 of something. Chimken: Wasn't dry, some teriyaki is so dry overcoated this was delicately coated chicken was a juicyy bby. The way the food sparkled glistened in the sunlight made it seem like I got a much moreexpensive meal than 12.99. Overall, I enjoyed the meal, hek yes. I even remembered to say itadakimasu before I ate because someday I will know more Nihongo!! Tired of needing subtitles on everything!! So, num num or not? : Thisdefinitely some num nums! P.s Coming back for some Tako Yaki!!! Yes plz!!

I had the bento (number 10) thinking that a place called Bento Ya would have a good bento box but mannn I mean the effort was there but there was NO FLAVOR, everything was cooked nice, tempura crispy, just BLAND, so if you go to Bento Ya, don?t get a Bento box.. On the other hand, my friend ordered ramen and said it was good

Stopped by this place, maybe the most beloved of Grand Central Market. I enjoyed watching the efficiency of the workers, which included putting tempura items directly into the bentos. Ended up getting the deluxe bento with grilled pork, assorted tempura, egg roll, salad, rice. Everything was cooked well and priced right at $12.

Not sure that average of 3.5 stars is reflective of how affordable and tasty some of the food actually is. Many reviews state that the flavor quality is mediocre, but personally mine #19 Salmon Avo Sushi) was so good for the price. The Deluxe Box was good too variety of items, good portions) but I also thought that the side salad combo of tofu iceberg lettuce was not the best. But discounting that, the beef, dumpling, and salmon was 10 10.

Decent food, portions are ok, prices are lowest at this market.
