Good deal for nothing
A joke. The Pad Thai tastes like spiced ketchup. The spring rolls and chicken teriyaki was at best from a mircrowave.

Not good at all
I've never been so put off by a restaurant in this neighborhood before. The waiters were actively rude and mean to me and my party. I thought we were quite polite. The waiter said "beef, shrimp, or chicken?" and when I asked him to repeat himself please, he yelled at me with a scowl. I ended up apologizing and feeling awful about the situation. We ordered an appetizer that never came even when we asked about it later. A waitress yelled at me for not being able to move my bench in far enough to let someone else through, when I had moved it as much as I could. And the atmosphere was so loud I couldn't even hear myself think. Sure, the prices are cheap but you get what you pay for at this joint. I would recommend this place to nobody at no time.

unique place
won't find a variety of food like cafetasia offers, especially with the relatively inexpensive meal prices along with super fast service. have done large dinner reservations (20 people) without a problem.

too sweet
the restaurant is not bad. but the food is too sweet. almost everything is loaded with sugar. not recommended if you are the health-conscious type.

good value
i randomly came across this restaurant while walking on E8th and so my girlfriend and our friend said yeah lets try it. its definitely not a date spot in case ppl wanted to go here on one, we could barely here our own conversation. Crying Tiger Sushi and Pad Thai were good, i agree that the duck salad was too sweet and the tuna tartar was ok. would love to try other items on the menu. not pricey at all, definitely get your moneys worth. would enjoy going back!

disappointing
We were a group of 8 people, we had to wait one and a half hours to finally have to have worse service! We came and had to give our names to have the next free table instead a group that came after us got the next free table. We were told that those people had the table because they made a reservation a week ago when we all knew that no reservations can be made in this restaurant. When we got our table we had to hurry since the kitchen was closing and so was the the restaurant

Great for a birthday party
I brought a crowd of 10 or so people to Cafetasia back in March. The food and drinks were excellent. I'll probably go back again this March! My only complaint is that I made reservations for 8pm, and we didn't get seated until 8:30.
