Obento Japanese Lunch - 17th and Market St


O Bento and Catering?  More like O Crapo and Expensive! 

1) O Bento Sushi Bento Box, $12.99
The good: fish wasn't warm
The bad: sashimi pieces were the size of postage stamps, sushi pieces were even smaller, rice balls were dry, it was all mediocre and including a bottle of water my total came out to $15 and change.  Left still hungry, feeling ripped off with a hint of unsatisfied anger.  [1/10]

2) Soba Noodle Combo, $10.99
The bad: overcooked, tasteless, bland, bad.  The noodles were almost paste like, what kept them from melting back into the dough that they came from is a mystery.
the shrimp tempura, which looked huge and crunchy in the photos, was actually some anorexic cousin of the shrimp also soggy and oily.  didnt taste terrible though.  [1/10]

Overall LTE score [1/10]  1 point for not poisoning us
