The dishes here are really good! My husband and I ordered the bulgogi bento, chicken karaage bento, and the galbi kimbap. Each component is made to order so it does take a bit of time but worth it in the end. We especially liked the sides in our bentos such as the croquette. SO GOOD.To the person who wrote that they were expecting modern Japanese food: you do realize that they had their menus displayed at the front? It would have been clear from first glance that they mostly serve Korean food and you could have walked away instead of leaving a 1-star review for a small business. Also in Korea, they call bentos, "dosirak". Maybe do some research before you start assuming bentos are only associated with Japan.

This place is exceptional! I heard that this replaced the Umami Japanese restaurant (which was pretty good!) I love how their bento boxes are unique, and quite filling for a meal! I got the chicken kaarage bento which had the rice base, and around it, a veggie mix, egg, beef patty, seaweed & tempura! This was such a wide variety (: I absolutely loved their triangle kimbaps! My bf got one for us to share which was the tuna one. Such a great snack idea too. I loved them so much, I'd love to come back and get more!My bf got the chicken katsu bowl and the katsu was crisp and the sauce was perfect! It came with scrambled eggs and rice. We ordered take out on this one; it's mostly convenient in that sense but would love to check out the establishment soon!

I love their veggie kimbap (which, btw, contains egg and fish cake) - their korean dishes are tremendously underrated. Very sweet service and excellent quality and value for the price point. They also recently began serving triangle kimbap. Give this place a try!

The place is cute inside, spacious, and clean. I got takeout for chicken katsu bento, which was very flavorful and filling. The main katsu was delicious as well as the other little side dishes including japchae, bulgogi, and tempura assortment. Food came out fast and everything was neatly packed. Staff is really kind and pleasant. High quality food, and I'd love to come back to try their other new menu choices!

This business took over the space that used to be the Umami restaurant in the Bella Terra business/condo complex. They have a very simple menu, is a half dozen varieties of bento boxes. Prices hover around $20 for a bento box, which is actually around the market rate for a full bento box from other restaurants. Tonight I opted for the spicy pork bento and katsu bento. First, the spicy pork was very flavorful. Full warning, it's legit spicy, and I'm used to Korean spicy pork. I mixed it up with the rice and that helped to tame the spice level. The katsu was actually my favorite of the two. Super crispy and moist on the inside. This was probably the best katsu I've had in a long time. I was so impressed. The bento boxes come with an assortment of tempura. Shrimp, squid, potato, and a few other veggies. These were good and it came with a small container of tempura sauce for dipping. There was also a small portion of Korean glass noodles, japchae. This was very flavorful and I wished I had more of this instead of the salad, which was under the noodles. There was also a mixture of vegetables and bulgogi beef, in an almost pot roast style. This was a pleasant surprise. Overall, I'm very pleased and impressed with the quality of food and the portion size of these bento boxes. I'm gonna come back to try a few of the other varieties, in addition to getting the katsu again. The katsu is a 6 out of 5! Must get.

Limited menu, kalbi, katsu, karaage, salmon, unagi, spicy pork. The sides change daily. Tempura and korokke come with the entree and rice. The assorted sides varied by box. We found everything to be tasty and filling. I liked the korokke as is but my meal companions wanted a sauce. Pricing was $20-$25 per person, the amount of food you get is well worth the price. We will be back to try the other entrees. You should give it a try.

We have been coming into MOMO since they opened. They started with just a couple items and have expanded their menu!

Tried 4 different bentos (Unagi, Chicken Katsu, Spicy Pork, and Hamburger Steak). Really big portions, the little side dishes in the bento are very good! The lady at the counter was very sweet and so was the chef.

Takeout reviewIn shortIt's tough to imagine a better bento place. Dollar for dollar around here, it's hard to imagine a better food deal, too.In longYes, I still have a couple more bento places to get to around here. But we tried 5 different things last night and everything was amazing. The only possible quibble is that it took them a while to finish the order--yes, I was calling them "Slowmo Bento" in my head, but they DID actually put me right with an honest ETA when I ordered. So I was just being hungry and impatient.This is a Korean bento place, with multiple bimbap and triangle bimbap options. Best bimbaps we've tried around here. We loved everything we tried--the tempura was a great lineup.Spicy chicken bowlI'm always in the mood for spicy teriyaki and could probably stand to branch out now and then, but this was rad. Lots of crunchy fresh veg around the white meat. I skipped the rice, but got a grain or two and it was chewy and delicious. They throw in a fried egg roll which was also great.GyozaOrdered as a side dish. Bigger than the little pot sticker you get with the bento box. Chewier, thicker dough. Great filling. Nice side.Spicy pork bentoNow we regret not getting the unagi for a couple bucks more, because this place clearly knows what's up in the kitchen. The pork was tasty and tender, there's rice there and some glass noodle salad. You get tons of banchan, including bacon-wrapped asparagus, of all things. Bento included prawn, green beans, and yellow squash. The potato croquette was out of this world--you can get those as a side.BimbapGot both kalbi and veg. 8 big chewy slices in each order, along with some side veg. Wonderful flavors. I definitely want to try the more-adventurous options now.The place is small, on the ground floor of some nice-ish apartments on the way to the golf course. Kinda outta the way, but you seriously have to get in here. Very austere inside--clean and bright, but no art anywhere. A few drinks coolers, a TV with the menu, a few food pics on the counter. Sturdy mismatched tables and chairs. It has a friendly and spotless vibe, but it could use a little decor. Other than that, though, there is absolutely nothing whatsoever I'd change about any of it.

We used to patronize the former Umami so decided to check out its replacement. There were no other patrons when we arrived on a Saturday afternoon. The menu is fairly limited and prices were steep for bentos. We got the Chicken Karage ($18) and Unagi ($25) bentos. The main entrees were accompanied by tempera, 1 gyoza, and other items so they were filling. Taste was fine but nothing to rave about. It appears to be a 1 or 2 person operation. Several customers came in and waited with no one at the counter I had to get up twice to alert them. The walls were bare and they had hip hop music playing. Overall, it was good to try once but unlikely we will return.
