Pod

The "future" is now at Stephen Starr's University City Pan-Asian with a "super-mod", white-on-white look and an "interesting menu" of "modern" nibbles, including "excellent" sushi from a conveyor belt; it's "no longer so novel", but fans say it's still a "cool" destination, especially if you "go with a group" and snag a pod.

Pod Restaurant Review

It’s funny that Pod is actually an "old timer" in University City; it was one of the earliest "new" spots to lead this area's ongoing dining revolution.

Try the lettuce wraps, any of the dumplings, and wasabi-encrusted filet. We like the futuristic vibe, vinyl seating...

Good food and execution; indifferent service; interesting ambiance. Recommended for a "change" when you are in the Penn corridor

Blast into the future in this ultra-modern, family-style Asian restaurant. Sit in a glowing cocoon-like pod or eat at the sushi bar where a conveyor belt delivers nigiri and maki right to your seat. The red barge in the lounge is the perfect place to sip festive drinks and people watch.

This restaurant features pan-Asian fusion cuisine, from Chinese, Japanese and other influences. A large sushi menu is also offered. Decor is modern, with sleek dining "pods" giving the restaurant its name.
