Asuka Sushi & Hibachi

A small sushi restaurant near Xavier's campus, I've previously been before. While they do have traditional offerings, their specialty rolls are where it's at. I was starving so I went a little crazy this time and ordered 2 specialty rolls plus 2 traditional, plus miso and the snow crab app. The miso was standard but good, but the crab app is really flavorful, no Krab here. The yellowtail was some of the best I've had in recent memory. And my salmon skin hand roll WAS the best I've ever had. My crazy roll and queen of the sea were both excellent as well. I had a really hard time trying to choose which ones I wanted because they all sounded so good. The prices are so reasonable too, you can almost afford to order half the menu like I want to. I'll be back to try more, and maybe I can convince them to add mackerel to the menu in exchange for that 5th star. Rules are rules.

The sushi was so good! This place looks unassuming from the outside, but they sure do deliver on the inside. Everything is clean and bright, and the service was outstanding. We started with the Pesce Hamachi, which was melt in your mouth amazing, and then shared the Nemo, Aloha, and Koi rolls. Every single roll was better than the last one. The mango on the Aloha, the lemon on the Koi, and the kick from the chili oil on the Nemo, every one was perfection. We will definitely be back!

Super tasty and generous portions. Every detailed request of our order was perfect the first time. Our host and server Nick was friendly and very attentive. Will definitely be coming here regularly. Update: Came back for lunch a month later and Nick recognized us. It was busier this time but he was still making each table feel like they were the most important one there.

The moment you walk in the door it brings back memories of Tokyo. Service is easy, sitting at the bar ordering your favorite Black Gold rolls with Eel, or the delightfully spicy Pesce Hamachi. The service is unobtrusive but attentive, always ready to top up your drink or provide your next order. The space is calm and peaceful. No better spot in the city for a light lunch and delightful ambiance.

We were so happy to have dinner at the new Asuka location, which has finally reopened in the old Kin spot! Asuka managed to survive on takeout only since the start of the pandemic up until this point, and I hope they’ll continue steady business and beyond with this expanded location. Consistently great sushi and hibachi, awesome hardworking staff, fast and friendly. Don’t sleep on one of the best sushi spots in the city!

All around a very solid spot for hibachi and sushi. This isn't the kind of place that is going to wow you with surprises, but everything that I've had from Asuka has been good. The hibachi chicken is tender with a light and flavorful sauce that keeps the meal from being too heavy. The salad with ginger dressing and the miso tasted fresh, and the fried rice is pretty much exactly what I want when I get fried rice from hibachi restaurant. If you've got a hibachi or sushi craving, Asuka will definitely do the trick.

Very delicious rolls and appetizers, good service and beautiful music by Kenny G on the background :) Living it!

This place is gross. I had ordered from this place before and hated it but it was so long ago I forgot the name. Tonight I was hungry and used Uber eats to get hibachi. Sadly I chose this place again. I got the steak hibachi and the rice and steak is so dry. The flavor is actually disgusting. It may be some peoples cup of tea but nothing like any other Japanese I’ve had. Thank goodness I got extra pink sauce so I can just drown it in it. Still gotta eat ig. Not wasting $35 for nothing
