About Bento Sunflower
On Castle Lane West in Bournemouth, Bento Sunflower is a takeout restaurant serving a menu of Kung Po Chicken, Chicken Chow Mein, and sweet and sour balls alongside pancake rolls and House Noodles. Bento boxes round out the menu, built around sliced meats and thick, rich sauces. Orders are placed on a walk-in basis, and diners looking to swap in noodles alone will find that substitution isn't offered on the website menu, only through Just Eat.

“Brought the pancake rolls. Bizarre coating. Difficult to cut open, as thick rubbery appeared uncooked inner layer of coating. Flavourless. Unable to eat.”

“Had our first takeaway New Year’s Eve. Lovely fresh vegetables on rice, delicious beef and House Noodles. Fast delivery. Definitely the best Chinese takeaway around here.”

“We had a takeaway. The bento boxes are great. It's a shame we cant edit box to noodles on their own website but can on just eat. Normally the sweet & sour balls are lovely this time they were soggy. Im hoping its just a one off”

“Ordered the Kung Po Chicken and Chicken Chow Mein, and wow—they nailed both! The Kung Po was spicy, tangy, and had that addictive crunch from the peanuts. The chow mein was packed with flavor, not oily at all, and loaded with tender chicken and crispy veggies. The combo was just perfect. Can’t wait to order again!”

Customer Review Summary
The complaints concern consistency. One order of sweet and sour chicken arrived as pork. Another reviewer found the usually lovely sweet and sour balls soggy and hopes it was a one off. A third could not eat the pancake rolls, citing a rubbery coating with an inner layer that seemed uncooked and a flavourless filling. One reviewer also wishes the bento box could be switched to noodles on the restaurant's own website, as it can on Just Eat.
