I’ve fallen in love with a new restaraunt in Clifton. Izen’s Drunken Bento. One of my Co-ops put me on. They have half priced sushi all the time. Its fresh and delicious and they have great combinations. I have also tried their Bento Boxes. They are amazing. They are only offered at lunch time, but they are such light and refreshing meals. Ever since I’ve eaten here, I’ve been back almost weekly since. Definitely give this place a try. Everything I’ve tried has been amazing!
This is a great place after a night at the bars. Sushi is reasonably priced and they have some amazing rolls.
I would reccomend the volcano and red devil rolls
The Good...Went here for a Sushi lunch, great quality and delicious!
Try the Kani salad.. Very good.
The Bad...The inside of the place probably was nicer at one time, however looked at bit run down.
Either way good place to try if your in Clifton/UC area
I LOVE it!. I never have a bad experience! I love them! I eat here at least once a week and am always ready to go if a friend wants to go! They all know me most of them know me by name... If I call in they know my voice and are always friendly with me. My sushi is always good. This is by far the best sushi spot in Cincinnati.
Excellent! This place has the best sushi and you cannot beat the price. Everyday is half off of their prices so for example if a role is $12 on their list price: you only pay half that $6. my boyfriend ordered enough to fill the boat and an appetizer our bill was only $28
Very nice. Have been twice. Fast, tasty and reasonably priced. I have a family of five, all of whom like sushi. To feed the whole family is about 60% what is costs at other sushi resteraunts and the quality of the food is high.
Fast and delicious!. I ordered two sushi rolls to go and they were ready within five minutes! According to the menu all sushi is half price "all day every day," so my two rolls were only $6! Service was fast and I enjoyed my sushi...I will definitely be back!
DELICIOUS. The stone bowl is delicious...and much cheaper than the other Korean restaurants in the area. They also are BYOB restaurant! Hands down recommened!
The name is now simply Bento and the food has been upgraded after a new remodel. Awesome food. Right there with thai express and cilantro as part of the best affordable Asian food in the city and all in the same lock!
The perfect lunch. I have eaten the lunch specials here twice and was really pleased. A great deal for the money and nice variety of kimchee, very fresh and served with a bowl of miso soup. The service is friendly and casual, comfy atmosphere. This is a great place to grab lunch near campus and do some reading, relax a bit. With other Asian restaurants like Thai, Chinese and Vietnamese nearby, it's nice to have a Korean dining option thrown into Clifton's food lineup.
Came to this restaurant on a Saturday Afternoon, After hearing nothing but great things about this restaurant. I wanted to give this place a try. The sushi that I had was some of the best sushi I have ever had. The staff was nice, the service was quick. I would give my overall experience a 10/10. If you are looking for a new sushi spot to try…
Look no further!
This is your place!
What I ordered
Dynamite Roll 10/10
Sunday Morning Roll 11/10
Spider Roll 10/10
Love getting sushi from here; it's always pretty good. My only problem is calling in an order and not being able to get through for 10+ minutes. Been like that for years at this point. Overall once you finally get past the busy tone it's a good experience.
This was my third time here, first time I had take out, second I think the guy I was with expected it to be sort of a date? Third time it was just getting dinner and it fulfilled the purpose well. I got 3 rolls, one being fried, and they were all so good. However the one with pickled cabbage was a little weird. I would not get that one again. The sweetness was weird. Once I accepted that the flavor was how it was and it was supposed to be like that it was okay, but it was weird. We sat at the bar, adventure time was playing, it was enjoyable. There was a kid here but I don't think it's necessarily kid friendly. The workers seemed to enjoy working there too. It was a good time.
Fast, friendly service. Good sushi but nothing over the top. Great spot for a quick bite before or after a long night. A few Asian beers are a plus. The edamame was solid. And sushi is always half off.
Here’s what we ordered (6 rolls): Spicy Tuna,
Sweet potato, Bengals Roll, Deep fried philly,
Sunday morning, and a Spider roll. DO NOT SLEEP ON THE SWEET POTATO ROLL 🙌🏾🤯. it was unbelievable. Same with the Bengals Roll and Sunday morning. I mean they were literally ALL just so delicious. We kept trying to decide on a favorite and couldn’t. I’d get them all again. Only negative feedback was the service time - we got there right when they opened (12:30pm) and were sat but didn’t get our food till over an hour later. But the server was super friendly and we could tell he was just a bit overwhelmed. That’s why I’m still giving 5 stars. It was worth the wait!
Gosh. This was amazing. Half price sushi every day. It’s almost like should just permanently change the prices. I think that would make sense. The food was amazing. Our server was very nice. She had a little triangle tatto on her arm with a somewhat questionable spray tan. Yurrr
I got the sweet potato roll and the Sunday morning roll, and it was some of the best sushi I’ve ever had!! My sister got a bibimbap bowl, which was also delicious. I can’t wait to come back.
Food? Amazing. Price? Incredible. Our waiter? Brady. (They were great)
If only I wasn't there with this awful being (of whom i discovered in a sewer and smelled of burnt rubber). This being even tried to attack me and eat my fabrics
But that has nothing to do with drunken bento, it was good, I recommend
By far one of the best sushi places in Cincinnati! Definitely my wife & I’s favorite place to get sushi. The restaurant is a little small, but they offer both dine-in & carry out. Great service. Friendly people. 5/5 stars for sure.
Quick service, decent sushi rolls, and great pricing. The review is based on value. Ambience is cozy. I don't know how conveniently it is located since only reason I went there is because it was close to the hotel. I didn't realize this when I was ordering, but all the sushi rolls are half priced while the portion is also smaller. Miso soup was on the saltier side. Tuna appetizer was very good.
