I don’t normally take time to write reviews, but the chicken bento box was straight fire. Last time I had karaage this delicious was literally in Japan. The entire bento was so perfectly delicious it made my day, highly recommend

We catered an event with Nagomi Bento and ordered inarizushi and onigiri. I only got to try the miso negi onigiri because everything went so fast and it was delicious! I also loved working with them as they were responsive, timely, and professional. I would cater from them again and hope to eat at the shop soon!

I get the curry katsu nearly every time I'm in bow market!
Authentic, delicious, and utterly charming, this hidden gem specializes in Japanese bento boxes.
Found this spot while wandering through Bow Market, and it was one of the rare Japanese restaurants run by a Japanese family—and it showed. From the meticulous presentation to the authentic flavors, their bento boxes transported me straight to Japan. Recently, they secured a permanent spot in the market, and it was no surprise they were quickly becoming one of the most popular food options there.
So far, I’ve tried nearly all their bento box options, and my favorites were the Salmon and the Marinated BBQ Beef. The salmon was a masterpiece—perfectly cooked to be soft and moist on the inside, with a light sear for those crispy edges. The side vegetables, with their understated flavors, paired beautifully with the fish. As for the BBQ beef, I was blown away. Given the price, I didn’t expect much, but the beef short ribs were high-quality—tender, flavorful, and with just the right amount of fat. While it lacked the pickled vegetables and garnishes of the salmon bento, the beef alone was enough to make it a bliss.
The only slight letdown was the onigiri. The miso pork filling had a comforting, savory flavor, but the rice-to-pork ratio was a bit off.

I got a salmon onigiri and a bbq beef bowl. The salmon onigiri was stale, but the salmon inside tasted fresh. The bbq beef bowl was essentially steak tips on top of rice with a marinated soft boiled egg. The steak tips kinda tasted off, I assume it's because it was pre cooked and then warmed up? The marinade was good, as well as the egg. The rice was perfectly cooked. I was a bit disappointed considering it's price point. I assume all the freshly fried/steamed items are the stars of the show. I do not recommend the beef.
