| - I have such a love-hate relationship with Java. I used to live right around the corner and Java was the closest (and cheapest) place nearby. To say I went there everyday is an understatement. After all those experiences, I think I've overdosed on Java forever, because I haven't gone back.
Java has the same menu as Green Room, Red Room, and Nirvana. Same owners, same stuff. Basically this place is a godsend for any student -- you can eat and drink for under $10 on any given night. Their food is literally so cheap it doesn't make sense. And then you taste it, and you're like, "Oh. Right. This is why it's cheap."
The things I actually do love there are their deep fried tofu, the pad thai with shrimp, and their avocado brie sandwich (with the soup! mmm soup). Most of their entrees come with a side salad that looks so sad you want to fluff it up and make it happier.
But they do have cheap beer, cheap sangria and cheap food. I love this location because they have the little booths for two on the left -- very cute for dates.
Two things to note:
1) CASH ONLY. They have an ATM at the back that looks kinda sketchy so make sure you have cash on you.
2) When you go to the washroom, it is super weird because you have to walk THROUGH the kitchen and you see all the little Asian ladies making the food. Very awkward situation.
Oh yeah -- if you're in the area, Java's not all that bad. Just don't come expecting mid-blowing food and you'll be fine.
