Sushi and Service is Amazing!

by lesoccer6 at Citysearch

This place is located not too far from my work, and I recently just discovered it with a friend of mine. The first time we went there, the lady who owns it is so sweet. The service is great, but if you love a homey-family feel, then you'd love this place. You cannot help but love the lady because she's adorable. The sushi there is also delicious. It's prepped there on the spot, quick, and very affordable; compared to other places you'd get more for your money here! If anyone asked, I'd definitely recommend this place!

I've been there quite a few times and every time I've gone I haven't been disappointed.

BIG tasty portions - LOW price

by missbehave at Citysearch

"Wow - Unexpectedly amazing. A friend + I were shopping + stopped in to Sushi 28 Cafe before heading home on a Fri. night around 9pm. We ordered the sushi for 2 + a dragon roll - OMFG - the sushi could not have been better! We had no idea how GOOD this places was + were certainly glad we stopped in! I highly recommend this easily passed over sushi restaurant. The food was so well prepared + tastey - especially for such a small cafe.

The staff was incredibly nice, the atmosphere is small + cafe feeling w/ BYOB. The prices are very affordable for very LARGE portions, the sushi for 2 was a monster! I was sure to pick up a delivery menu. I can't wait to eat here again!"

  • Pros: VERY tasty - LOW prices

Vietnamese dish not very authentic

by chicago30 at Citysearch

The owners were very friendly, but the food was less than mediocre. I had a very basic Vietnamese dish for lunch - Bun Thit Nuong (Vietnamese rice noodles with pork and shrimp). Thin vermicelli noodles were not used. Instead, they used a thick round oriental nodle. There was a brown soy sauce-like concoction at the bottom of the bowl. The shrimp and pork were both overcooked and the nuoc cham had no flavour. It was relatively expensive ($7.95) for the quantity and the quality of the food. Maybe the sushi is better...
