Indie Cafe Sushi Thai — reliable japanese in Edgewater that keeps people coming back. Cocktails here aren't an afterthought. Service that's warm without being over the top.

“Just a touch of heat that was perfectly placed right after the broth is tasted”
The Sunny Crunchy Roll was awful. Our server was too busy talking to someone at another table, and it got cold.
Your response clearly deflects from the main issue here, which is poor customer service.

First time here! Got the no meat Raman and I’m impressed! Creating a hearty vegetarian broth is not easy. This broth is so satisfying! There’s some deep flavors like you’d expect with a beef broth and it lasts throughout the meal. Just a touch of heat that was perfectly placed right after the broth is tasted. Two types of tofu a skin which is sweet and a plain which goes so well with the other. And not forgetting the ramen noodles tasty perfectly cooked. Served is a deep ceramic bowl which kept everything warm. Beautiful presentation!

“I often come here for lunch.”
I often come here for lunch. The lunch specials are really tasty. They offer sushi specials with raw and cooked options. Also cooked meals like pad Thai and basil chicken. I enjoy the Thai iced tea. They are very welcoming to solo diners, which is much appreciated. I recommend the taro custard for dessert. I also have the ramen here, which they will make with rice noodles for gluten-free diners.

“I love Indie Cafe in the Edgewater neighborhood.”
I love Indie Cafe in the Edgewater neighborhood! We had both Thai and Japanese dishes, and everything was delicious. The tuna and salmon sashimi were super fresh and tasted amazing. The signature maki rolls were creative and full of flavor – you can really tell they put effort into making each one special. The place has a chic and friendly vibe, making it a great spot to relax and enjoy a meal. The staff is really nice and attentive, which adds to the overall great experience. If you're in the area, definitely check out Indie Cafe. It's a local gem that you’ll want to visit again and again. Highly recommend! ---

“Such a great experience.”
Such a great experience! What an amazing night from start to finish. I dined in on a Sunday evening after 5pm and I must say perfect timing - the location wasn’t super busy. The space was warm and inviting in addition to being very clean. The mood was definitely set with the lovely aesthetic. Food 9 | 10 Drinks 10 | 10 Atmosphere 10 | 10 Service 10 | 10 Thank you for a great evening and definitely returning soon.

Amazing hidden gem for sushi & drinks 😁 the environment has very nice relaxed atmosphere great for a casual date but can be elevated if you visit at night.There are so many options I have yet to try! Everything is prepared with beautiful presentation and tastes fantastic. The art on the walls will definitely spark conversation and the staff is very friendly & knowledgeable if you have any questions.
