Nagomi Bento Bow Market Reviews
Tried it for the first time at the farmers market, it was super delicious. I will absolutely be buying it again.
Absolutely incredible. Food was fantastic.
I’ve enjoyed their onigiri 🍙 regularly but last time it was way softer rice and barely any miso pork. I’d rather they raise the price and go back to the previous amount of pork. And I much preferred the harder, chewier rice before.
Be aware of their hours. They are not open for 2:30-4:30p every afternoon and like almost all of Bow Market closed Mondays.

Nagomi Bento Bow Market is a charming Japanese restaurant located in Bow Market, known for its authentic and delicious bento boxes. The restaurant is run by a Japanese family, which adds to the authenticity of the flavors and presentation. Visitors can enjoy a variety of options, with favorites including the Salmon and Marinated BBQ Beef bento boxes. The salmon is praised for being perfectly cooked, moist on the inside with a crispy sear, while the BBQ beef features tender, flavorful short ribs with just the right amount of fat.
The restaurant also offers popular items like onigiri, which are considered a must-try, especially the miso paste variety, described as an umami bomb. However, some reviews mention that the onigiri rice has become softer and the miso pork filling less abundant recently. Fried chicken, or karaage, is another highlight, with some reviewers comparing its flavor to the best they've had, even in Japan. The chicken bento box received high praise for its deliciousness and was described as "straight fire."
Service is professional and responsive, and the restaurant has catered events successfully, showcasing reliable quality. Customers should note their limited hours, as they are closed Mondays and have specific afternoon closures. Overall, Nagomi Bento Bow Market is a beloved spot for authentic Japanese food, consistently praised for its taste and quality.
