BENTO Gainesville Archer

"This place has gone downhill. We used to come all the time when we lived here. Happened to be in town so we stopped by and wow, can’t believe what they’ve let happened to this place. Booths and chairs are covered in tears. The place is visibly dirty. It was empty with not one clean table. I had to get napkins and use the soda machine water to wet them and clean a table myself. The food was not as good as it used to be. Not as much fish and heavy on the rice. There are definitely some management issues or maybe owners just don’t care that their restaurant looks like this. Will not be back."

"Very fresh, very fast, and very tasty food. I had a rice bowl as well as a sushi roll and everything was fresh made and delicious. The restaurant is nicely decorated and everyone was super friendly. We ate close to closing and tried to be respectful and leave quickly but they didn't seem at all bothered by our late arrival. My friend got a bento box and it looked absolutely divine. She thoroughly enjoyed it."

"The Bento boxes are delicious and I really enjoyed the Thai tea."

"Just ate here for the first time! I had the shrimp and steak lo mein with extra garlic string green beans, and a roll of original cali sushi and OMG it was delicious!!! def recommend! They gave me enough shrimp and steak in it to satisfy me :) the only thing is i ordered level 2 spice and oooooof its very spicy! so next time i will go with level 1! but def 5 stars, very yummy! good job"

"Came here and just wanted some to-go sushi. Ended up going with the special mexican roll. Nothing really notable or special about the sushi, it was on par with any other i’ve had but was pretty expensive for a fast casual restaurant. I would expect to pay these prices at an actual sushi restaurant, with a roll being $13 before tip. Roll itself was decent. More rice than normal but the tempura was cooked well and the sauce was good. I’d recommend not getting sushi from Bento and sticking to bowls."
