ICHIRIN

Delicious Japanese food. Purchased for the first time at the Thursday Costa Mesa Farmers Market. The Vegan Curry was excellent.

Ichirin makes better bentos than the lot of other bentos found in the local Japanese supermarkets and supermarket restaurants!
A ton more vegetables and pickled vegetables, very healthy. Soft rice! Salmon that isn't overcooked or fishy. And a lighter, varied taste that's not drowned in teriyaki sauce. And while it varies by season, I got a super sweet orange slice today! Thankfully, even their soy sauce is real.
TAKE-OUT only for now, so you will need to order beforehand or ring the door bell when you're ready to order from the menu at the restaurant. They do have green tea and Calpico not on the menu, which does change daily so some items like a side salad might not be available.
15~ Minutes to get your order made-to-order if nobody's ahead of your order, so those on 1 hour lunch breaks will want plan accordingly.

This reminds me real bento box in Japan!
We ordered Yakiniku and teriyaki bento box and we loved it! Delicious 😋

Delicious and authentic Japanese food! I tried the Oyako Don and the Yakinuku bento, amazing! Can't wait to try more of the menu soon!
