After all, she is your mum, she will be absolutely light up with excitement at the thought of her son or daughter taking her out on mother day's.
In the zeitgeist of Japanese culture, making a Bento Box (whether you are making for a family member or for yourself) is a tradition. These are small self-made Usually! But can also be bought boxes that store food and lunch for the designated user. So, in other words, it can also be called Japanese culture based lunch box.

This is the best ramen I've had in my life! I've been traveling around the country and Europe ,for work,and never have I found anything, as close to that taste! Knowing that my partner surprised me with a trip to Cardiff, just so i can have that experience again. I think he got annoyed by me saying every place we go " it's not as good". Makes me sad I can't visit on regular basis, but i have to say: Thank you, for the best ramen 🍜 in my life!
P.S. I wish I knew how to make it myself lol

A disappointing meal and over an hour’s wait for some mediocre sushi. The staff were attentive and though but the quality of food has gone downhill. Hope for a better experience ever since coming back but they seem to care more about the aesthetic of the restaurant rather than the customers. A real shame from a loyal customer.

I visited last night with my wife, son and daughter. The food is outstanding. We had a variety of sushi and a bowl of ramen. Incredible food. Expect to wait for your food, it’s all prepared fresh and you can see into the kitchen from your seat. All the staff there were fully masked and wore hair nets. This is a sign of a safe and professional establishment. We will certainly return very soon. I’d give this place a 5 star rating. Most enjoyable.

Food was absolutely delicious, couldn't fault it one bit. The way of ordering was fantastic, and extremely covid friendly. Sushi, sashimi and nigiri were so well made and tasted beautiful. Staff extremely friendly and very helpful. The Arsenal posters 'spot Mr Tenakaichi' in the bathrooms were a nice touch. Thankyou for a lovely evening!

Absolutely beautiful restaurant, food, and service! Amazing flavours & quality, served beautifully presented and quickly with excellent wait staff who were attentive to our needs. Given the state of dining out during the pandemic, all of this is a credit to how fantastic Tenkaichi is, highly recommended!

Absolutely amazing place! I've been to this place at least 5 times and from all the Japanese places I have been to, this place is my favourite! The staff here are so friendly, both in person and over the phone. Service is always quick, great ambience in the restaurant and the food is always delicious and in hearty portions. They also have student discount and a loyalty card.

I have been there few times. No complains with the bento boxes at all, they are lovely and have different options. But make sure not to order the curry dishes: Not enough sauce for the whole dish, and if you request more sauce they want to charge £2 for sauce they should've give you in the first instance!! As you can see in the pic, that is the rice I've been unable to eat (there would be more but I made the effort to eat the buttered tofu that came with my dish).

Tenkaichi is my go-to place for Japanese food in Cardiff! A cosy place on City road (the end closest to Albany road), it's usually quite busy in the evenings so booking is recommended, though if you walk in before 6:30pm you should be fine. Seating is arranged in long benches but there's enough space that you won't feel as though you're intruding on the conversation of the party next to you.
My usual: spider maki, rainbow roll and the unagi (eel) nigiri! Donburi rice bowls are also good.

Sorry to rain on this parade, but I was not very impressed with Tenkaichi. The rice didn't seem like proper sushi rice, the maki rolls weren't that well made, as they all started unrolling before I even touched them. On the other hand though the prices were pretty fair and the place itself was quite nice enough, the staff was nice and the porcelain service looked good and the atmosphere was good and also the menu was varied. Was my 1st time in Cardiff, and from the other reviews it seems like it's the best sushi place there, so I guess if you find yourself in Cardiff and are in the

Not a bad little Japanese restaurant. My daughter and I ate there this evening. We started with vegetable gyoza, which is like a deep fried dumpling. It was a nice starter before my tempura udon, which is a noodle soup, fat noodles and some breaded prawns which I slid into the bowl and enjoyed. She had miso ramen with chicken. All was quite enjoyable. I am a sushi lover but with the terrible, cold weather, I opted for something warm. The maki and sushi did look really good though and was tempted to order some too but the rest of the meal was very filling.

The service was ok but not knowledgeable and I had to ask for more tea even though I'd been there about an hour. I got my miso and main meal at the same time, which really shouldn't happen. The unagi was good but the rolls were just bathed in mayonnaise- like legit I think they thought mayo was the only thing holding the rice together. Ok food, blah service, long wait- definitely not the best sushi I've ever had

One of those experiences that changes your perception of food. The first time I went here it was mind altering in the sense that I really enjoyed the raw fish which a lot of people still have issue with.
Ask sushi restaurants go, prices are at a good low level and the only way you could get better is to compromise on quality and taste and go to an all you can eat buffet restaurant.
I wouldn't choose to go here for noodles as I generally wouldn't eat noodles in a restaurant. If you want a real authentic tasting sushi experience Tenkaichi provides a great menu to choose from.

I remember when this place first opened - a friend of mine worked a sales executive for a radio station selling air time and this was one of here clients. So to show a bit of support a few of us went along and I don't know why but I wasn't expecting much - of course i was wrong (probably the 1st time ever!).
The food is plentiful and very tasty indeed. I say plentiful but its still one of those places where you feel you could have eaten a lot more. It's also one of those places where you feel like approaching the chef and saying - how did you make this?
It's not a huge place

I loved this place - in fact I'd go as far to say I liked their noodles more than I liked Wagamama's! There I said it - controversial!
It has that small business feel to it where the owners really care about your experience here - they want you to have a nice time - they give very good service and want you to have a nice meal. It means a lot to them.
I've only been here once but it was busy and everyone I was with enjoyed plus we said we'd go back - what more in the way of praise does a restaurant need apart from repeat business?

Tenkaichi Sushi And Noodle Bar is a pretty impressive achievement. It's a restaurant that is broadly loved by everybody! In fact, I don't think I've met a single person who doesn't adore the place. That's some record!
I think what we all love about it is that the standards are high and the prices are low. Sushi Nigiri averages around £2.30 for two pieces and Sushi Maki is generally below £4.00 for four pieces, with the rolls averaging around the £3.50 mark. A ten piece platter of mixed Nigiri Sushi costs £10.30.
If I eat at Tenkaichi, me and my friends always order

Open every day for lunch and dinner, this hard-working Japanese restaurant deserves every ounce of the success it has. The food here is delicious, colourful, and relatively nutritious, while the setting is fairly simple, clean and informal - with long tables and benches often shared with neighbouring groups.
On the menu there's a choice of authentic Bento Boxes, Ramen, Yakisoba-udon, Sashimi, Rice-Gohan and various salads and side dishes - pretty much everything you'd expect from a Japanese restaurant in the UK. With Bento Boxes from about £10 upwards, and Ramen from about £7, it&apos

This just has to be my favourite Japanese place in all of Cardiff. The menu is vast and offers something for even the pickiest of eaters. It's tiny and usually packed full of people so if it's a Friday or Saturday night probably best to phone in advance to avoid disappointment. There is a rich menu of noodles, sushi and rice dishes but I inevitably always opt for a bento box. For under £12 you can get a choice meat, fish or Veg fried or otherwise served with miso soup, salad, a few pieces of sushi, dumplings and a mound of steamed rice. It's really filling but doesn't make

After reading a few reviews on qype I was really excited about eating here. The staff are helpful and I loved the feel of the place, even sitting on the long benches didn't cause as much distress as I thought it would be. Sitting next to strangers 'n all that :p
The food was tasty, but I think I made a wrong choice which spicy chicken ramen as it didn't mix too well with the already large amounts of alcohol I'd consumed that day. When I eat here again, which I will, I'll opt for a more solid based meal such as an udon dish, one of the parties had it and it did look scrummy

Fantastic Japanese Sushi and Noodle bar! The menu is vast and the only problem I have is choosing something different as I know the dishes I've tried in the past, I want to have again!
Situated at the top end of City Road, Tenkaichi is one of those places that is always bustling. I've never had a problem getting a table. most of the time if they are busy, we arrange a time to go back and go for a drink nearby.
You will either be placed at one of the long bench tables or be placed at the large window watching the world go by.

Great variety of Japanese and Sushi food served in nice settings and quite central location, there is also a take-away.
The reason I wouldnt award it higher marks is that it doesn't cater to vegetarians very much with only about 2 or 3 meal options and a few gyoza style items.
Overall though it's a healthier option to most take aways and restaurants and worth checking out.
