    Beef Bulgogi

    We left literally feeling nauseous. EW!!! "Beef" bulgogi that looks like chicken? While it tastes like nothing, all while smelling awful. And sushi that tasted totally off. So bad. Also had to request wasabi, ginger, ramekin etc. multiple times. So, the service was on par with the food. Wouldn't recommend.

    California Roll Aloha Roll regular philadelphia roll
    Taylor M.

    ordered takeout and it was ready quickly! really enjoyed the california roll. the philadelphia roll was not what i was expecting - it had imitation crab which was new but i'm not complaining. i also didn't read the menu closely so that one is on me! the cashier recommended the aloha roll which was interesting to try but i probably wouldn't order again.

    Spicy Garlic Edamame
    José D.

    Charge Ramen Spice Level 3. If you enjoy spicy food, that extra spice adds so much flavor to the already savory ramen. Servers are always helpful and attentive to your needs. As soon as you enter the restaurant you are greeted by the sushi chefs. Music is played in a low volume and they have tvs that typically play sports

    Part of lunch special
    Mandy F.

    Lunch time was poppin'! Staff accommodated us even though we were a few minutes min before lunch ended. Definitely a great time to order delicious sushi on a discount. It is almost impossible to find these prices for restaurant sushi. The lunch special I had to try consisted of 2 house specialty rolls, a salad & miso soup for $18.99! I ordered the baked mountain roll (without the cheese) & the lovely Gloria. These two very popular rolls lived up its hype. Quickly prepared and nicely presented. Definitely returning to try more of their specialty rolls!

    Big island roll is the bomb!
    Johnny M.

    Everything's is excellent, will definitely come back for more! Get the Beyond Roll and the Big Island Roll

    Lemon flash roll
    Veronica G.

    I love that they had a board on the wall Listing their top 10 sushi rolls. They have excellent lunch deals. I had a Lemon flash roll and a rainbow roll. Everything we tried was excellent. The restaurant has a nice seating arrangement with both booths and tables. Our server was friendly and efficient.

    Crunch Roll
    Yadi E.

    Best house fried rice we've had in North county, hands down! Had the perfect amount of seasoning & perfect ratio of rice to protein (chicken, shrimp, and beef.) I ordered a crunch roll and she was juicy & delicious. All I could ask for in this dish. Happen to come during happy hour so we tried the $5 sake and the $5 large Sapporo. Great date night meal. Would recommend!

    Bento box
    Kiana F.

    We decided to stop in on a Thursday night for some sushi. We have been on the hunt for a new place since moving from Hawaii; it's very tough to find a place that isn't mostly crabbed based rolls. To say the least, we will be back. Sushi was great and reasonably priced. The extra options such as the bento box was delicious. Service was good and they seemed to have many to go orders. Great casual dining for all !

At first it was…read moreamazing - affordable, nice portions, big pieces of fresh raw fish, not too much rice on the rolls, so many choices, the restaurant staff paying attention to the write in modifications (like "No crunch or spicy mayo, please. Thank you!" or "Jalapeno slices on the side, please!") - but over time it became a crapshoot. Sometimes our order is correct, sometimes the notes are ignored (yuck - spicy mayo), once my crispy tofu didn't have the delicious salt and pepper blend on it, sometimes the rolls will have a TON of rice on them and only thin slivers of fish... you get the drift. So, I guess cross your fingers? I can't really discern a pattern. So far it's been mostly worth it. I had the best crispy tofu I ever had in one of my orders that has yet to be replicated or beaten. The sashimi is always a safe bet. The fish is fresh, prices good... So yeah, give it a shot and cross your fingers. We mix it up, but I often order: the Baja Hamachi roll with no crunch or spicy mayo the Sweet and Lover roll with all yellowtail the 9 piece yellowtail sashimi with sliced jalapeno on the side garlic crispy tofu appetizer

It can sometimes be busy but I come here on a weekday dinner and it's pretty open with no wait. When it comes to food, they got a lot of different varieties of sushi, udon, bowl, and more. All the food is pretty good and has a good ambiance with TV showing around, seeing the chef make sushi, and not too loud. I usually get their sushi and udon there along with other appetizers and they are really good. They also do well with takeout or as leftovers so you could always order as much as you want. Overall, a good place to eat at if you want some good sushi and want to have some good vibes!

Cafe de Thai & Sushi is a small business that is located just north of Oceanside Blvd & College Blvd in the inland of Oceanside California. What I can appreciate about this restaurant is that it is in a convenient location that is easy to get to & has plenty of parking in the surrounding shared lots. There's plenty of space for family & group seating inside. The ambiance was soothing and dimly lit with a vibe of Asian flair , but it doesn't feel boujie. The service was excellent and very attentive. My meals were tasty and I felt that the prices, although on the higher side, matched the portion sizes and the quality of the food.

I'm so glad we decided to give it a try. We have several anime fans in our household, so it was exciting to recognize all the characters displayed throughout the restaurant. The kids loved them too! We were greeted immediately when we walked in, and every staff member was incredibly kind and attentive. After ordering at the counter, we took our number and found a slightly wonky--but charming and sturdy--solid-wood table. Different movies were playing on the TVs, which kept the kids entertained while we waited for our food. We ordered sushi and ramen, and my ramen was exquisite. I believe it was called the Dark Knight, and it was absolutely delicious. I was also pleasantly surprised to see Orion beer on draft. Having lived in Okinawa, where the brewery is based, it was wonderfully nostalgic and added another layer of authenticity to the experience. Everything about our visit was wonderful, and we'll definitely be dining here again. They also advertise special events inside the restaurant.
