This miserable poke bowl was $19 before Tip. I have been coming here for years and thought they were expensive but it has really gone down hill. Maybe the other sushi place inside is better, I hope so. Go to Publix, you’ll be happier

I ordered the Rainbow Roll and it was the smallest roll I ever had but to top it off the sushi had a fishy taste so it wasn’t fresh fish. I don’t recommend based on the fish not being fresh
Located inside of Plant Street Market in Winter Garden. This is not your typical Bento Kitchen with full noodles and veggies, but it is a nice sushi/poke bowl addition to the other vendors at the market. The menu is limited, and I was surprised to see that the veggie roll or any veggie/vegan option was not part of the menu here. The staff was super nice and custom made something, but would be nice if they had the traditional veggie roll here as well.

Overpriced sushi rolls that were bland with low quality ingredients. Any grocery store sushi would taste better than theirs. Very sad.

The tuna was spoiled and green in my sushi. The other items we ordered were bland and cheaply made. Who puts rice crispier on a 'signature' roll?

It’s such a shame to have such low quality employees, the guy working behind the counter was so horribly not helpful and wouldn’t help with taking the order, when a owner doesn’t know when to fire an employee that’s when the business suffers.
A Letdown at Bento Sushi + Poke: A ReviewMy dining experience was far from what I had anticipated, and unfortunately, it left a lot to be desired. The establishment, which promotes itself as a purveyor of fine sushi, missed the mark on several fundamental aspects of a satisfying dining experience.**Customer Service: A Missed Opportunity for Engagement**One of the most glaring issues was the lack of customer service. In an era where dining is not just about food but the experience, they seemed to forget the basics of hospitality. Despite opting for self-service, there's an expectation of minimal interaction, especially in a setting where chefs and customers share the same space. The complete absence of engagement—no greetings, no acknowledgment, not even a simple 'thank you'—felt cold and unwelcoming. This oversight turned what could have been a warm, inviting dining experience into a transaction devoid of any personal touch.**Sushi Selection: A Surface Variety**The restaurant boasts a diverse sushi menu, but this claim doesn't hold up under scrutiny. Despite a seemingly extensive list of rolls, the variety is superficial at best. The options quickly reveal themselves to be variations on a very limited theme, fitting into just one or two categories. This lack of genuine variety is a significant disappointment for any sushi enthusiast looking to explore a range of flavors and textures.**Portion Size vs. Price: An Imbalance**The portion size of the rolls further compounds the issue. They are surprisingly small, particularly when you consider the premium pricing. This imbalance between the amount of food and the cost is jarring, making it difficult to justify the expense. Dining out, especially at a sushi restaurant, is expected to be a treat—a balance of quality, quantity, and cost and unfortunately fails to deliver on this front, which left me feeling short-changed.**Sushi Quality: An Unpleasant Surprise**Perhaps the most disappointing aspect of the meal was the sushi itself. The rice, arguably the cornerstone of any sushi roll, was flavored in an unconventional manner that was, frankly, off-putting. This unexpected taste overshadowed the quality of the ingredients, making the rolls difficult to enjoy. Sushi rice should enhance the flavor of the seafood and other components, not detract from it. This fundamental misstep in preparation was a significant detractor from the overall quality of the meal.**Conclusion: Unlikely to Return**Considering these factors—the stark lack of customer service, the illusion of variety, the poor value for money, and the disappointing quality of the sushi—I find it hard to recommend. The dining experience fell short of expectations on many levels, and with so many other options available, I see no reason to return. For those seeking a memorable sushi experience, it may be wise to look elsewhere, where the balance of quality, service, and value is better maintained. I hope they take this genuine feedback and make positive changes for a better dining experience in the future.
