My wife and I both ordered the salmon dinner and were very disappointed. The salmon was seriously under cooked. I pointed this out to our server whose explanation was that the portions were thick. No attempt to correct the problem and we were not compensated in any way when it came time to pay the bill. The tables are small and the wooden chairs very hard on your behind after a short time sitting on them. As for the jazz group, I would give their performance a C rating at best. Numbers preformed were few and the so called singer was flat, dry and unimpressive with the drummer the best of the group. Also, they allowed a small child belonging to one of the musicians to continually run around the tables chattering all the while we were there.

Ate here once. Ordered take/out from their home delivery “branch”. At Bento, the food arrived cold one hour and forty minutes after we sat down. Ordered takeout... read more Ate here once. Ordered take/out from their home delivery “branch”. At Bento, the food arrived cold one hour and forty minutes after we sat down. Ordered takeout three times. The delivery arrived three hours late the first time. The second time, even when we specifically double-checked that delivery could be timely, the food arrived twenty minutes after the “absolutely positive” one hour window within they said they would deliver. Don’t know why we ordered the third time. Delivery promised by noon—absolutely. Arrived at 1:20 PM. On no occasion did we receive the courtesy of advance notice that there would be a delay. We did like their soups but NONE of the other dishes were close to authentic (can’t comment on the Philipino dish—but we didn’t care much for it—though we’ve traveled all over Asia, lived in Japan for years and eat almost any nationality’s food with pleasure when well prepared—and DO NOT go to gourmet restaurants. Enjoy local food. We did get offered complimentary food once, as an apology. The delivery of that, too, arrived much later than promised. NOT RECOMMENDED FOR QUALITY, AUTHENTICITY OR SERVICE.
