If you are like me, then you are always looking for an opportunity to find a unique place to eat at. If you are also a college student that enjoys keeping their meal under $20-30, then I have a place for you. So try Now and Zen on the strip of the outer skirt of the downtown mall. I have visited this place a few times this year, and the sushi has not disappointed me once. It always hits the spot and is so fresh.

I have been here at Now and Zen a couple of times for my favorite meal of all time, sushi. One sushi roll that has sent my tastes buds on a roll every time is the “Spicy Maui.” The Spicy  Maui is a flavor explosion of spicy tuna, with creamy fresh avocado, and the sweetness of mango, and it is so unbelievably good. Overall, it might not be the biggest place, but sometimes the smallest places hold the most powerful dishes that will never leave you disappointed.

Now and Zen has a unique set of days and hours. For instance, they are not open on Monday at all.  On Tuesday through Thursday and also Sunday, they are only open from 5-9 pm. Friday and Saturday they are open an hour longer than usual. They are not terribly expensive. The least you could spend on a meal is $20 and the highest would be $150 at the most, all depending on what you get. The address of this amazing place is 202 2nd St NW, Charlottesville, VA 22902. So go on down to Now and Zen, I promise that you will not regret it.
