I was visiting from out of town for business. I saw this place and gave it a shot - and ended up going three nights in a row.
As the last night in Madison, I ordered the combo - and wow I am impressed! The thickness of the sushi is unheard of, maybe Madison is up there in the sushi game but coming from NYC, I was shocked. Five stars. -

The miso soup appears to just be instant powder + hot water, and the seaweed is hard!
Sushi itself is mediocre depending on what you get. What drove me to write this review was the poor service we received - waitress was curt and rude, telling us to "google it" when we had a question about our order. -

This is regarding delivery service. Waited 2hours and never received my food. Driver was lost and hung up on me 2X. Lots of communication problems on their end. Wouldn't recommend delivery service.

I come here with my girlfriend when we are in downtown madison and we always get 3 rolls for 12 dollars along with the Crab Rangoon's! We are full and we spend less than $20. Excellent service and fresh sushi! I do recommend :)

Maybe the key here is not going the veggie route. I ordered delivery and decided to try the veggie tempura bento box and the sweet potato tempura roll.
The sweet potato roll was fine, but rolled so large that you have to eat it in bites. This of course means that it falls apart and is kind of a mess to eat. I'd put it on par with grocery store sushi.
The veggie tempura would have been better if it wasn't cold. The veggies themselves didn't have a lot of flavor. The tempura batter itself was perfect, and the dipping sauce gave it a little help. The box of tempura included two zucchini spears, two green beans, a broccoli floret, an onion ring, and three small pieces of sweet potato. The broccoli was very mushy, I couldn't get through it.
The bento box usually comes with four pieces of California roll and I requested they sub a veggie roll if possible. They did, but gave me a cucumber roll that was incredibly bland and falling apart. I ended up chucking it after one piece, but I do appreciate their accommodating my request.
The best part of the meal was the spring rolls - crispy outside with a pleasantly contrasting filling.
For delivery there was no minimum and the fee was only a dollar, but that said my bill came out to $17 with tax, fee, and tip. I paid for the convenience of not leaving my house in the cold, but it's a much, much better deal in my eyes to pay $12 for two impeccable veggie rolls and walk a few blocks over to Red.
