Bento & Curry

Located at Pearl Highlands Food court. Food is very tasty and well presented. Service is efficient and friendly. It's a food court and at times it's noisy but most of the time it's average and air conditioned. Definitely go to place when we're down in pearl city!!

I visited at noon on a Saturday so as expected, the food court was bustling with people trying to grab a quick lunch. There were a few people in front of me so there was a little bit of a wait to receive my order. The bummer of the whole ordeal was that I received the wrong order, instead of butterfish & teri chicken, I received teri chicken and beef. I didn't realize I had the wrong order until arrived home. It was partially my fault for not questioning it since the number called out was correct. What can you do? On the bright side, the teri beef and chicken were pretty good. I was relieved that their brown rice was cooked properly since a lot of places don't put enough water or it sits in the rice cooker and gets super crunchy and hard. I think that the portion was pretty generous for two entrees with miso soup so the price was worth the $20 regardless. Some minor kinks in the service but I'm not opposed to coming back and trying again!

I ordered chicken katsu curry and a side of fried oyster. Trying to keep it simple. Katsu was very overfried so it was hard. It was also thin and mainly breading. Oyster wasn't too bad, it was battered properly. The curry alone is good. It was deep, rich flavor. I'd come again for the curry. Price and portion reasonable.

Food is really good, ordered the Shrimp Katsu & Fry Oyster Plate for lunch today. Everything tastes so Ono! Look forward to dining here again. Mahalo! Belly happy

This restaurant is inside the food court at the Pearl Highlands Shopping Center (the ground level above Sam's Club and in same strip as Guitar Center). Wow! This food is amazing. Why haven't I tried it sooner? I'm always on the lookout for healthy food options and this was not only healthy but also delicious!I had the combination lunch which allows you to pick two options & comes with miso soup, green salad, and rice. The 2 items I chose - broiled shio salmon, and misoyaki butterfish. Wow! they were perfectly cooked, juicy with a slight crust. Not dry and not overcooked. So flavorful. Watch out Liliha's butterfish....this place is bringing the heat! Until now Liliha Bakery has always won my heart with their butterfish, but now it's going to be hard for me to decide where I get my butterfish! (added bonus you can choose if you want your broiled fish with either shio sauce or misoyaki). My food came out quite quickly. The staff were also very friendly. The menu is extensive and I will definitely be back to try their udon, sashimi, and donburi bowls next. I can't wait.

Continuing with the close to home joints, 1.5 miles / 5 minutes from home...Welcome yet another Chinese Japanese bento shop. This time in a food court. Hey, this is Pearl City and beggars can't be choosey.From bento to a plethora including some bizarre curry bowls and udon (natto or takoyaki curry) and some poke bowls disguised as donburi to boot all at reasonable prices? What's not to like?Standard, heavily flavored, teriyaki items sat in more thick sauce, Costco processed shrimp tempura with its crisp, preservative filled greasy goodness, a fresh simple garden salad with a surprisingly good "Asian" dressing and OK quality rice. $17.No complaints on the broiled saba (mackerel) or chicken karaage. Tip: if you prefer mac salad over tossed greens, order the "daily specials" else no substitution.Online ordering available.I can easily name five better bento spots but all require a drive out of the zipcode. So again, beggars can't be choosey.

My husband really wanted to try this new place, so we decided to check it out. My husband got the tako ball curry and crab cream croquette, and I got tonkatsu curry.The tako ball curry turned out to be simply takoyaki with curry sauce. (Forgot to take a photo) The curry sauce had a strong flavor that reminded me of the Golden Curry brand, though it was a bit saltier than I prefer.The tonkatsu was just average, good for its price but a little overcooked.The crab cream croquette was also average. Nothing really stood out as exceptional. Customer service was good.

Located in the Pearl Highlands Center food court. Honestly surprised on the quality for a food court vendor but stoked I opted to eat there. I wasn't really craving anything particular at the time and had a hard time choosing an eatery in the food court, then when I picked Bento & Curry had a hard time choosing what to eat because they have a large menu. Service was super quick and the worker was really nice. Love that there is lots of seating in the food court as well as a couple tables and chairs outside. It wasn't super busy and food took maybe 10 minutes. I went with the Chicken Karaage Teishoku with Sushi Rice and a side order of Sashimi. Again, really surprised with the quality of the sashimi. My karaage was also soft and I loved the dressing on the green salad. I'm all about options and having a variety to eat so the Teishoku was a great choice. Overall very happy with what I received and would definitely come back. They also have cheaper specials noted on the counter but all their food looks really good.

Located in Pearl Highlands food court with a variety of Japanese bento items! I had the udon and hubby ordered the ahi poke combo with tempura and something like a fried chicken meatball? I wasn't too sure what it was but it was delicious! Everything had great flavor and I like the combination. Came with a salad, miso and rice. I should've ordered this combo rather than the udon. Why is it that my husband always orders something better than me? Luckily, he doesn't ever mind switching or sharing with me. I think you get a good portion for what you pay for and I just enjoy eating freshly made/fast teishoku! Good thing about food courts is you don't have to tip a server and it's also convenient and quick here. Parking could be sort of busy on the weekends but I never have an issue with finding a seat inside.

been wanting to try this place and finally got the chance to feed our hunger this past weekend. The teishoku and combos all come with salad and rice. And all priced reasonably. Though for the taste, it was okay. For the rice, there's a choice of white, brown or sushi rice. we ordered:1. kalbi plate (came w/ rice and mac salad)2. combo - unagi and ton katsu3. chicken katsu teishoku4. spicy ahi donMaybe it was just that day, but the chicken katsu and ton katsu were over cooked. I requested sushi rice for all. Maybe I should've stuck to plain white rice. It was dry. Maybe it was an off day when we came. Maybe if we do come back, we'll try something else.
