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.

While the sushi was tasty, you sadly had to wait a long time for the food. The restaurant wasn't too busy but the belt was empty so you couldn't even nibble between platters. We will be back for the sushi but maybe during off-peak time to properly enjoy it! I'd also recommend simply going for their buffet special (R149) rather than paying for plates; most plates with fish are above R45 and if you plan on eating 4 or more you'll probably get more value for money with their buffet.

I prefer the Best Of Asia in Green Point. This one seems so small and dark, with not as much entertainment to see as one can in the streets of Green Point. Sushi however is never a disappointment. Especially the buy 1 get 1 offer, so many combos so little time !

I love this branch! Another corner sushi store, but some of the freshest sushi I've eaten! Popped in for lunch and they were running a two for one sushi special. I ordered salmon sashimi, tempura prawns and salmon roses. All were made on the spot, super fresh and very yummy!

I've been to Best of Asia quite a few times but yesterday's sushi was absolutely amazing. I love it when I can have sushi and my eyes can roll back in my head and this sushi did that for me. The crab tempura roll, salmon bean curd and salmon roses were my favourite. I also quite liked the prawn roses which was my first time trying it but not to bad. Another first for me was the pecking duck roll and I'm a bit mixed reviews about that one but still tasted great...

This restaurants tagline should be: Consistency is the key to our success.

I've been coming here since they opened and I've never been disappointed, they don't have AMAZING sushi like nuri sushi factory but they do the basics very well and the sushi is made right in front of you so you know it's fresh.

The staff are really friendly and remember me well as I used to come here once a week because of there buy 1 get one free special. They're very friendly and always make sure where it eat is clean.

I highly recommend coming here if you don't want to be disapointed and if you do want good sushi. Sometimes they even have all the sushi you want on their conveyor belt and you can be in and out in 15 mins.

One of the best value for money sushi restaurants in Cape Town. Friendly staff, great variety of sushi. A must try! Don't get deluded by the interior, if your goal is to eat great sushi for cheap, this is the place to go.

The truth is I have walked past “Best of Asia” many times. I will just go ahead and put the blame on its location. It is right behind Mc Donald's and whenever I am at Mc Donald's I hardly ever get a craving for raw fish. Yesterday was a diferent story though. I swapped my brown bag for chopsticks with a friend.

It was International Women’s Day after all so we thought we deserved a little treat. Of course there was a buy 1, get 1 special and with our initial fast food budget we were not about to complain. We just focussed on the sushi belt and picked whatever we fancied. My friend loved the wine prices and maybe a little too much because when the belt malfuctioned she didn't notice a man trying so hard to get it moving again right infront of us. She was like “ Why are the plates not moving, I want more”. Bless her!

Best of Asia is not the kind of a place you want to take a sushi connoisseur to or Nobu fans, because the name is a bit ambitious to say the least. But, its that restaurant you can rely on for those unplanned late Sunday lunches and the prices are really good. The staff is friendly. It gets a plus from me.

And more we had and we are planning on visiting the restaurant soon.

Friendly staff. Waiter needs a bit more training in customer care and remembering to bring what was ordered as this drops the ball for the rest of the team who are on point. My daughter felt especially special as the lady who was making our sushi called her by her name and gave her the particular plate she ordered. She overheard our orders as we gave them to the waiter and prepared ans served them to the correct person when ready. Also very friendly - greeted us before we saw her, as we walked in and waited for the waiter. We had the buffet sushi. Thoroughly enjoyed all of the plates we had and will definitely go back to this particular branch again. Missed out on taking pics of our own sushi except that last piece. Will ha e to remember the next time! Parking is off street, there is a hand sanitizer on entrance. Mask required to enter the store. All staff wore masks at all times.

I really enjoyed the sushi....super yummy. Staff was friendly and prices were fair. Unfortunately, I ordered seafood fried noodles. I couldn’t eat much as they were slimy. I feared they were off. Other that that....it’s a nice little joint.
