Avana Sushi

Food: The crab rangoon is a must! Some of the best I’ve ever had. The lobster tempura roll and the spicy Red Sox roll were outstanding. The edamame was also good. Atmosphere: A cozy, colorful interior with enjoyable music, offering single seating along a long, bar-like table, and also booth seating. There’s also a fun table built into the front window nook to accommodate a larger group. Service: Super quick and friendly service. Our order was taken promptly, and the appetizers were also delivered quickly, hot and fresh.

Delightful service and food! I got the lunch special for 2 rolls and 2 sides for about $15. It was enough to completely fill me up and I found the spicy tuna roll and pork gyoza to be especially mouth-watering. The red snapper roll was great too, a little tougher but still very tasty. The wait staff did a great job of making the experience pleasant too. I'll definitely be back! I actually reviewed this place twice by accident, I liked it so much. I pasted my second review below. Easily one of my favorite spots to recently find. Excellent, fresh sushi (they do spicy tuna quite well, a benchmark for me) and appetizers, friendly & quick service, and cute atmosphere with light wooden furnishings and even an Izakaya-style table tucked near the entrance. They have lunch specials where you get a ton of bang for your buck so this is a superb lunch spot, I wish I could rate it more than 5 stars!

When I worked in Downtown Boston, I would order lunch here every now & then and can never complain about the food. For it being central to the city, the price point is fair and you can get salad, sushi & soup for less than $20. They also have lunch specials and the sushi is always made ready to order. Here I had an avocado salad & a spicy tuna roll. Will definitely dine in when I get the chance! Be sure to get there early to beat the lunch rush!
