Cafe East, located on Columbia's campus, stands out as the best dining option with a variety of well-prepared East Asian dishes like sushi and teriyaki chicken. Their boba tea is a surprising highlight, brewed perfectly with fresh and balanced flavors. The chewy boba complements the drinks well. While the sushi is decent and affordable at $10 a roll, the real star is the boba tea. The cafe offers a nice atmosphere to lounge in, conveniently located at the Lerner Center. However, the boba can be a bit pricey at around $8 and the staff may come off as impatient. The menu has limited vegetarian options, but the drinks are good, like the vanilla matcha latte with chewy boba.
