They have great sushi. The california roll has blue king crab in it. They were doing half priced sushi on Wednesday evenings, not sure if they sill do though.

If you're afraid of sushi, Papaya will prepare it in the soy wrapper, as opposed to the seaweed wrapper. They make a fantastic lobster roll that way.
If you go for dinner, do try the fiery udon noodles. They're so spicy they'll make your nose run, but they're delicious.

I love Papaya. I go there often for the martini (2-4-1) and sushi specials (1/2 off) on Wednesday nights. Great selection of appetizers, meals and drinks. The coconut rice is AMAZING! It's almost a dessert because it tastes a little like coconut rice pudding. If it doesn't come with my meal, I always order it on the side.
I love Pad Thai, and I kind of use it as a barometer to gauge how good I think a restaurant is. Great Pad Thai is often an indicator that I should come back and more fully explore a restaurant's menu. This means I wind up eating a lot of it, but who's complaining?
I agree that Pad Thai is a good barometer for a Thai restaurant's capability. Papaya does indeed offer a fine version of Pad Thai and I've also enjoyed the Udon noodles on subsequent visits. I'm curious why all 3 members of the reviewing party would order pad thai. Why not order a few different lunch entrees to sample more of the menu? Also, can we put a mortitorium on the phrase "To die for"

I respect your point regarding a well-rounded sampling of the menu when judging a restaurant, but that's not what we were there for. We were just havin' lunch...
Thanks Christa, I wasn't sure whether this was a formal type of restaurant review or more of a casual write-up of a recent lunch. Thanks for clarifying!
