I regret not coming here when I was working/living in Sunnyvale! I was in downtown MV and wanted to grab katsu curry but nothing was open until 11:30am. I drove here after seeing reviews and got takeout. I ordered a pork katsu curry, side of Saba fish and non sweet soymilk. The price was very reasonable for the amount of food you get. I waited 5-8 min for my food. The pork was crispy but juicy with well seasoned crust. The bowl of curry was generous (enough for a second meal if you make your own rice). It is a thick flavorful mixture with other veggies/chicken(?) swimming in it but not overly salty. Just opening the container, the smell of curry made my mouth water. I didn’t get to finish all of the pork nor Saba. No room left in my stomach for the salad that comes with the meal. I liked how you can pretty much add a side of anything to your order. I was going to order 2 entrees but thankfully I didn’t have to. The side of Saba had cooked veggies at the bottom which was great compared to some places that lay down a piece of lettuce. The soymilk had a deep soybean flavor that stands out without needing sugar to make it tasty. It doesn’t have preservatives. I’ll probably be making a drive up to gombei whenever I’m in the mood for Japanese curry and comfort food…or maybe just for the soymilk. It’s tastier than Asian grocery stores or restaurants that I’ve bought from in the Bay Area.

Very honest people, the three guys that work at the front are AWSOME! 6/21 forgot I left my wallet on the table while I was waiting for my food. Honestly couldn't remember where I had left it or dropped it (2 other possible places) I went back to Gombei next day and before I asked them anything one of the guys opened a drawer pulled out my wallet and gave it to me. Definitely saved me a lot of time at DMV.Love their food! large portions and great taste!THANKS GUYS!

Always my go to place for some bento. The only downside is they're not open for dinner! But the best beef teriyaki I've ever had (so tender!) and generous portions! Love it!

Good old home style food.

Got Chicken tarriyaki and kastu, something like that. The fried rice was coarse and chunky, meat was plenty, however overall it was flavorless, would not recommend.

Prices during covid are 50% higher than what's on the menu and food is below par

Good place to catch a bite but no outside seating. Only for take out.

Tasty food, fast service. I just wish hours were longer, especially when I want this for dinner.
Small bento place. Solid lunch options , some of the better kurage I've had in the bay area

Fast and friendly service. Tasty steamed rice and veggies. Be sure to ask for sauces if you have none at home. Salad and dressing comes with lunch, their dressing is da bomb! Chicken teriyaki was good, but not the best. I like the teriyaki sauce to be thick, the chicken grilled more, and in smaller bite-sized slices.

I definitely miss the sushi boat that used to be here. I went here recently, and they have completely remodeled it to just feature bento items during lunch and dinner.

I had the Gombei Teriyaki Chicken which is a combination of different type of chicken options. It was amazing.

Quick service and good joint for food. My personal favorite is salmon teriyaki!!
