Decent sushi place for the busy lunch crowd 5/19/2010

Cafe Asia is hit or miss. On one hand, the restaurant has pretty good sushi, fresh food, and some knock-out appetizers (their calamari is some of the best around, as are their grilled scallops). But on the other hand, it's just okay overall. The prices are a bit high, and there is little that makes this place really stand out. The explosion roll is excellent, but overall their sushi combos are pretty tame. As for the rest of the menu, it features pretty standard Chinese food that you can get anywhere and for much less. Service can be an issue. The wait staff addresses you right away, but it takes a bit of time for the food to arrive, and often your appetizers will come at the same time as your other food. Go if you're in the area, but I wouldn't specifically seek this place out. Pros: Good sushi, great apps Cons: Very loud, crowded, spotty service more
