My favourite place in Cape Town to get sushi. Great sushi and at a really good price (there is a permanent two-for-one special)

Best of Asia (BOA) is a really tiny place in a bustling street. When we arrived at the location, we nearly missed the entrance; that’s how small it is. However, upon entering, the overly enthusiastic Asian lady behind the counter, who could barely speak a word of English, promptly welcomed us. There were 3 waitrons and about 5 other customers which were also after that late afternoon sushi fix. In the middle of the restaurant is the sushi belt and on either side are small sections with tables. In the back is a makeshift bar, which doesn’t look like much, however, is stocked with a variety of different alcoholic beverages.
After sitting down at the sushi belt, we were approached by an obviously inexperienced waiter who had difficulty understanding us. Nevertheless, he brought the menu and asked us the usual, “Do you want something to drink?”. We politely declined drinks and got straight to the sushi buffet. All the food was freshly made and the taste was pretty much up there with many of the bigger sushi restaurants in Cape Town. The most noticeable aspect of BOA was their original items on the menu, which are perfect if you feel like veering away from the usual salmon roses and maki rolls.
There were only two people slaving away behind the counter and the same two people were responsible for the takeaway orders. This did however affect the speed of the service somewhat.
All in all, I had a pretty good experience at BOA. It’s the perfect place to go if you want good sushi at a very good price (R149 buffet). I would definitely stop by again whenever I feel like stuffing my face with sushi.
Cape Town is great cause there's literally a sushi stop on every corner. We found this spot and it's not bad for one of those moments you usually get when you just want to have an all you can eat sushi quick fix.
