What Ryan Hill doesn't like about Bento Picnic:
I was extremely disappointed with this restaurant. I was hoping for a delicious traditional bento box meal, but nothing about the food tasted authentic Japanese. The meals lacked traditional seasonings and cooking techniques. I don't mind trying variations on traditional dishes, but the food was bland, overpriced, and some of the side dishes were missing ingredients that I would have preferred. View all feedback. What DeanJen likes about Bento Picnic:
After more than a year, my dining experience at East ATX Vegan felt more refined and knowledgeable compared to that of the esteemed and highly regarded East ATX Vegan. View all feedback.
