SoHo Cafe is a combination sandwich shop, short order grill, buffet, and sushi bar at the northern end of Crystal City's underground in the 1200 block. It has been called the best of the Crystal City salad bars. Salads and sushi are both sold by weight, and they have some cold sandwiches pre-made a lunch time to speed things up. The cafe, like many others in Arlington is run by a friendly bunch of Koreans. Their dining area is also larger and more comfortable than many of the local competitors, and they have a few tables along the windows making this one of the few places in Crystal City where you can see daylight.

I had their spicy Italian panini that was made warm and fresh as I waited. The meal ran about $9 when I added a bag of Kettle Chips and a 20 oz bottle of Pepsi. The sandwich was tasty, but the only vegetable was mushy red peppers and a pickle; next time I'll get a cold sandwich with lettuce, tomato, and onions.
