Nida's Sushi — Restaurant in Columbus

We were headed to another local sushi place, but they were closed. We searched for sushi and found Nida's. I'm really glad we did. Let me start by saying this is not a normal sit down restaurant sushi experience. This is a small vendor inside the North Market. There are only about 5 seats right at their bar, but there is public seating upstairs if that's full. They don't serve beer or sake, just soft drinks, tea, water, etc. They have a decent selection of sushi, but you need to order from the menu. One of our party tried to place a custom order and they discouraged it. However, the four of us really enjoyed our selections. They were all prepared after we ordered -- nothing was already prepared. Three of us had sushi combo #1 (we all added spicy) and one had the Salmon Lovers combo. I was shocked at how good everything was. One of the best sushi experiences I've had...

I am from Thailand and was really eager to taste the thai food listed. I ordered a Green Curry Chicken (and my friend ordered Red Curry Tofu), and it was just sweet. The taste was nothing like how an authentic Thai food should taste. I know flavors are often adjusted but this is just way off. To me it didn’t even taste like Thai food, needless to say the chicken didn’t taste like curry chicken but curry and chicken.

The owner is definitely Thai (cause I literally heard her and the other female employee speaking Thai), so this kind of flavoring is not that acceptable for me, for I’ve tasted a lot of Thai food all over the world and this one is by far the most non Thai food Thai food I’ve tasted.

The service wasn’t horrible, but it wasn’t the best either. It was a little busy but the owner did give me a smile when I spoke to her in Thai, so that smile...

I have gotten food here in the past and it was delicious, and I love and recommend it. However when I went today, the lady working the cash register in the pink dress was extremely rude toward me and acted like I was bothering her by wanting to order. She interrupted me to tell the people behind me that they needed an $8 minimum to use card, and then yelled at me to get my attention when my order was ready when I was literally sitting at her counter.

When I did return to my hotel room to eat, the teriyaki chicken kaarage I ordered was missing all of the sauce it was supposed to come with, so I just had dry chicken and rice. I hate to leave a bad review, but what the heck? I paid that much for that?...
