Old school. Right around the corner, eat in or order out online, a quick walk from Adams. Great value on lunch menu, good selection, quality ingredients. This is my go-to spot for Chinese food in Eugene. Great hot and sour soup!

Awesome sushi at a great price and unlike a certain top spot, you can actually get in. Full bar. Lunch sushi special is an epic deal, but step for the spicy tuna to compete with whatever the chef has concocted that day. Staff is friendly, and atmosphere very pleasant and upscale. Located in in 5th Street Market
