If you’re on a budget Manpuku is your place. You can get the most common bentos and sushi rolls here but I prefer the donburi bowls (unagi if they have it). It’s a tight spot and seating is limited but you can sit at the counter if you’re flying solo. Parking on College is always hit or miss. Good spot.

A great cost effective option for some good Japanese food! I had the chicken katsu curry (which had the essential tsukemono, cabbage under the katsu, and a healthy portion of golden curry with potatoes and carrots) all for $12.95.

Cheap price with decent flavor. Chirashi and rolls are super tiny??, though bento boxes and chicken katsu plates are generous. Good for a workday lunch/ quick dinner.

Very nice sushi and Japanese restaurant. It’s small with a long counter and 5 or 6 small tables. You order food and pay first at the cashier before you sit at a table. That’s a bit odd since you really cannot give a tip until afterwards since you don’t have a clue about the service. The food is very good with great flavors and there’s decent quality and quantity. We ordered a tempura roll which was really delicious and only cost $6.85! We also ordered a rainbow roll for $11.85 which was good although the sushi was a little thin. The nigiri was better with more quantity and the quality was also very good. We spent $55 for dinner with tax and were full. Yes, we left a tip in cash…

I’ll give them four stars on the food because of the value proposition… The fish is always fresh, and the portions are more than reasonable for the price point. They have a ready to go refrigerated case that they stock for the lunch hour. You can get a sushi combo With tax and tip at the door for about $16. It will easily kill you up.

Sometimes, in the evening, it can be a little backed up for to go orders. In the past sometimes they get the orders mixed up, so be sure to check your bag before you leave. They are fairly popular with locals and the college crowd.

They tend to be my go to because they are close to my house, convenient, and prepare your order quickly .

The sushi/nigiri is not worth the price, there’s barely any sushi in the combos. Since sashimi is usually more expensive anyway, in my opinion just go to higher-end place.The bentos are pretty decent for the price, can see them as everyday grab and go meals.
