| - So pleasantly surprised by this place! With a name like sushi express, you expect just a fast, quick convenience store like meal, but I had two great experiences here in the past month, one being in restaurant and the next being delivery.
The restaurant is small and unassuming, but we were served quickly and efficiently. Similarly with delivery, we had very generous portions of the bento box as well as beautifully packed sushi, all in under the time that was predicted. Prices are reasonable 100% of the time, so you don't have to worry about timing it just right for a lunch special or a happy hour, which is a relief.
SO and I were boring both times and ordered the same type of thing twice, a bento box and the three roll sushi special. For rolls, overall we have tried eel/avocado roll, Alaska roll (salmon/avocado), shrimp tempura, spicy crab roll, and California roll (4 pieces come with the Bento box). We ordered the squid bento box, which is a super reasonable price, which comes with your choice of white/fried rice, salad/spring roll, 4 piece California roll, and your protein stir fried together with veggies (broccoli, zucchini, carrot, mushroom, onion). The entrée in the bento box I feel could always be cooked a little longer, as the flavor doesn't really get into the squid and the first time, our zucchini and onions were a little undercooked, but I appreciate their efforts of using very fresh vegetables and getting it to us in a timely manner. The sushi itself was good. The flavor of everything was good, and considering the prices, I don't expect very top notch quality anyways.
Having found this place is a relief in Madison if you're looking for a quick, cheap bite to eat around state street.
