Bento Express 川香一锅

absolutely delicious and flavorful chinese food for a low price. for around $9 you can get white rice, fried rice, noodle stirfry, your choice of two sides (most of which are very hearty braised or fried meats), and a free soda. although i dont know the names of dishes i've eaten, its all amazing and the staff is very friendly! additionally, the portions are very generous and i always have enough food for a second meal later in the day or for my dinner! they also have a nice seating area if you want to eat there.

It was good dish. Minimum price and quality fresh food. Good cafe and we can buy groceries.

Some of the best stir fried cabbage and generally great everything else, plus quick, cheap and huge portions.

I've been by countless times since they opened in the past ~half year, and I'm still very happy with what I get here. The food is pretty good -- nothing to write home about, but for the prices and huge portion sizes here, it's more than fair. My objection is primarily that the food does tend to be a bit oily. They have a large selection of dishes to choose from every day, and it's nice, when I'm too pressed for time in the evening to cook, that I can still have a decent meal with a variety of different dishes. The price point did go up a few months ago, but still very reasonable -- around $15 for the choice of three dishes and $12 for the choice of two dishes. They have had a cash discount of 10% for a while, too. There's a WeChat group where the owner(?) sends pictures of what dishes they are offering for that day/meal. Also, they have the mala dry pot option (self-serve ingredients, etc.) that I haven't tried before, but the price also seem pretty good. Maybe next time.

I want to be clear that the food here is very tasty and having something like this in the neighborhood great! Because of that I thought about leaving this review or not for a while. But this is the 2nd time I’ve found metal in my food from there. This time it was in the beef and broccoli, and it looks like wire from those metal cleaning scrubbers(it’s sticking out of the rice in the photo). Last time it was a piece of metal that was flat. This is really dangerous and really disappointing because the food is great. I hope they get this under control, but after getting metal twice in the food I’m going to stay away for a while.
