Cafe Sushi

Cafe Sushi in Old Town is an unassuming little BYOB sushi restaurant. It has an eerie blue glow inside a stuffy, small space and a nice patio fronting Wells St. Beef gyoza were a standout; meaty, not overly greasy and good sized. A sashimi sampler of various fish tasted fresh and also featured larger than average portions. The remainder of the food (edamame, miso soup) was standard. The issue was the service. It started out slow and ended even slower. Though large groups were clearly sitting and drinking, one large maki order seemed more than the two sushi chefs could handle, resulting in an hour wait for two rolls and sashimi. In a city with many BYOB sushi restaurants with few differences, Cafe Sushi's service puts it towards the bottom.
