Kokoro-tei is a popular bento shop known for its delicious and fresh made-to-order meals. The restaurant offers a great assortment of bento options, including a tasty steak bento with wafu sauce. Customers praise the friendly staff and quick service, often able to pick up large orders in a timely manner. The vegetarian options are also well-received, making Kokoro-tei a great choice for events or takeout.
Kokoro-tei used to be a favorite bento place for many customers, offering affordable and generous bento options like the Nori Kara, Nori Kara Deluxe, and Nori Salmon Deluxe. However, the restaurant has recently become exclusively a takeout place, with customers only able to step inside briefly to order and wait outside for their food.
The wait time for orders can be quite long, around 20-30 minutes, as the restaurant receives a high volume of orders daily. While the food is still praised as delicious, the lack of indoor seating and the long wait times can be inconvenient for some customers. Parking can also be a challenge, but there are options available on the street and in the nearby lot.
Despite these changes, Kokoro-tei remains a popular choice, with customers highlighting the restaurant's monthly food specials as a highlight and a reliable option for those working in the area.
