Reviews summary
Tucked in a plaza, this fast, takeout-focused sushi spot delivers fresh, inexpensive rolls, poke and dumplings with swift, friendly service—making it a favorite among students and families. Highlights include crisp dumplings and standout combo rolls; the menu offers wide variety and attractive prices. Drawbacks: portions can be small, poke sometimes overly sweet, occasional watery miso, and shared seating/food‑court ambience can feel shabby. Ideal for budget-minded, on-the-go diners rather than those seeking a refined dining experience.

This restaurant is a true hidden gem. The sushi is not only delicious but also served quickly at great prices. Everything is packaged for takeout, allowing you to get in and out in no time. I really hope this place remains open for years to come. View all feedback.
What Jason Matsumoto dislikes about Bento-ria:
Meh. While the prices seem good, the quantity of food you get is pretty small. The poke we got was also very sweet, almost sickly so. The rolls are on par with Safeway at about the same price. The crispy dumplings were pretty good and the overall highlight of our meal.

This is my favorite spot for satisfying my sushi cravings in Boulder. Bento-ria offers delicious food, great prices, and a relaxed atmosphere. Food: 5/5
The best sushi you can get for the price in boulder! I always get the spicy combo roll (spicy tuna and spicy salmon 15 pieces for 11.49). simple but it hits the spot!kind staff and fast service doesn't hurt either.
Food is awesome, and prices can't be beat. If you're a college student, this place is great. If you're looking for a nice atmosphere the former may kill the vibe.Food: 5/5
Great sushi at a low key spot in Boulder at an incredible price!

The seating area was filthy, though that is probably not the fault of this specific venue, as several share a common seating area. Because of the quality and quantity of food, I’m not sure we will return here.

This place is fantastic! I would give it a perfect 20 out of 10. Everything I tried was absolutely amazing. That’s really all you need to know!
Must try 6 different roles, each very fresh and honest bomb. Add the spicy Mayo diving sauce and wow. You won't regret that.
Clean, great prices and lots of variety on the menu. The food was quality and fresh. Lachs Mini rolls $3,99 per order. Lachs pool shell only $7.99! Can't find that price everywhere and the food was delicious and perfectly portioned. Satisfied customer! Instant a popular place in Boulder for Sushi.
The best sushi place in Boulder! You definitely get your money's worth. The food is excellent, and the service is top-notch.
It's hard to believe this place is a local sushi restaurant in Boulder given how affordable their prices are! The food was delicious and prepared fresh. It can be a bit tricky to locate since it's situated within a plaza, but it’s definitely worth the effort.
