Asahi Japanese Steak & Sushi

This review is for all the times we’ve eaten there, but not the last. If you’re after good sushi look no further. If you’re after regular to sometimes fantastic hibachi- funny enough this is also the place. I’ve most likely had their early bird sushi 30 times and the hibachi 10. My family absolutely loves sushi and this is THE spot. Tonight oddly enough I wanted to rate them 1 star. Our waitress couldn’t even bring me a glass for a $11 beer. Our hibachi chef screwed up orders and the only “hibachi” gimmick was the onion train. Toss on top with a beer and glass of water- I still ran out of drink. Waitress literally returned for checks. Plus side to this evening is saved me a lot on tip, plus I really didn’t need to spend $33 on 3 beers. Thanks for limiting me Asahi waitress!

We came in without a reservation just after 7 pm. Another party that had a reservation was seated and there was enough room left at the table for the 3 of us so we were seated with them. The table on the other side of the room was seated right before us and their server came out and took their orders, brought them drinks and they had their soup long before a server even acknowledged our group was there. It was 7:40 before a server came to our table. I’m not sure if a member of the other party had complained or not but once a server did arrive everything felt very rushed after that. Our chef was fun, he threw eggs at our faces, missed most of our mouths making quite a mess for whoever had to clean the floor later. When the bill came it was all given to one person with the other party. Even though we were seated separately and never interacted with the other group she put us all on one check. We had to wait quite a while for her to return and correct it, it was after 9 pm before we were able to pay and leave. We all ordered the same thing, steak and all 3 of us had upset stomachs about an hour later.

Made a reservation day before for son’s graduation and asked to be seated with another group. Day of reservation restaurant was full. We weren’t seated with the group and waited 20 minutes past reservation time and still wasn’t seated. Two other group were waiting in same reservation times when we left.

This place is always top quality food. Pictures in the bowl is their volcano roll, my favorite. Crabstick, avocado, and cream cheese topped with shredded crab mixed with spicy mayo. In the other picture is their Crazy Salmon Roll (Left) and asahi special roll (Right.) They put a lot of time and effort into making each roll amazing. My only gripe is the waiters always seem to take their time, especially once you are done with your food and need the check. The food, however, was so good that I went back and got the same thing 2 nights in a row. If you don't mind the rolls being on average $11+, it is a fantastic choice and you cannot go wrong.
