Asahi Japanese Restaurant & Sushi Bar

I Always enjoy the food. The sushi rolls are big and the prices are great. This is definitely a good sushi spot!
Only down fall, it could use a major face lift inside.

Second time here for lunch. Located in a large shopping strip. It is a bit hard to find. First time i tried the udon noodle dish which was a bit bland. This time i tried their sushi which was better. Small portions but tasty and fresh, especially their eel nigiri.
They also give u discount card if you get a certain number of dishes
Pros: quick service, fresh,
Cons: hard to find, small portions

Cheaper then most places, local quiet and a bit cramped with a older oriental décor. Service is good and attentive and prices seems cheaper then some places.
The food is average nothing out of this world. Their pork Katsu is a dish I like from there… Reason I visit is because their lunch prices are pretty good

Not impressed. The salad is literally just lettuce and a little purple cabbage. The California Roll was mushy and bland. The teriyaki chicken was flavorless. The Gyoza was good. I haven’t used Unilocal in a while so I didn’t not know the prices posted on Unilocal would not reflect actual prices. I’m not going back.

I ate here during a recent trip to Florida. Compared to other local restaurants, this is easily one of the better ones. I do have better options at home, (outside of Philadelphia,) but the sushi here is good, and I would gladly return.
My friend and I split four different sushi rolls, asparagus, sweet potato, shrimp tempura, and a custom roll with sweet potato. Since we dined in we were able to take advantage of a special that included free miso soup and salad with two rolls. The miso soup is meat-​based, but our waitress was nice enough to give us an extra large portion of salad to make up for us not having soup.
The salad was plain iceburg lettuce, but the sesame and ginger dressings were very good. The sushi rolls were good too, and made to order, so were very fresh.

I have been going to Asahi for years. It is a great spot for some authentic & delicious sushi and they are equipped with a very accommodating and friendly staff.

Service was great, but the sushi isn’t even mediocre or decent. Wouldn’t recommend it. Prices and cheap, so I guess you really get what you pay for.

The rudest Sushi Chef! My husband and I left there without eating. He harassed me, and then started yelling at me in front of all the Customers and Staff. I heard it was a great place for sushi, but if you treat Customers the way he did, I shall find another place. The Owners need to know.

I’ve eaten here many times over the past 7 years. I usually get a sushi roll of some sort. They are fairly priced, even a little cheaper than other places. The seaweed salad is good. They serve a brothy soup with mushrooms and the typical iceberg salad with ginger dressing. It’s always good and I am never disappointed. I’ve also had the fried rice with vegetables. Also good.
I definitely recommend if you want inexpensive and yummy sushi!

This is not a place you would bring a first date if you want to impress them with décor or ambiance. The place feels like it needs a good makeover. Do not let this deter you because what this little gem lacks in sophistication it more than makes up when the food hits the table. Servers are fast, efficient, and friendly. The food was served quickly and was fresh and well presented. I had the large chicken teriyaki box which included a California roll, soup, a salad, mixed vegetables and fried rice. My wife had the sushi box which included everything my box had plus 6 pieces of sushi. All of the food was delicious and the Kirins Ichiban was ice cold albeit a bit overpriced IMHO. Pass right by McDonalds on your way in and support this little family business who does a great job from kitchen to servers. You will not be disappointed!

I’ve been coming here for 13 years. It was the first place I ever tried sushi. The food is delicious and I love how cozy it is there. The unsweet tea was also surprisingly magnificent. I will always love this place.

My friend recommended this place to me over and over again and I finally tried it and it was great! The Bento boxes are not only a great value but the food was amazing and I’m always a huge fan of variety. I went with the sashimi and if you dig raw fish you should give it a try too.

My wife and I decided to check Unilocal for another local Japanese restaurant. For the last few years, we had been visiting Wasabi in Deland. I now believe I prefer Asahi. I didn’t even know Asahi was in this plaza and closer to our home. It is kind of hidden in it’s shopping plaza.
The food was fantastic. I had a tonkatsu bento which consisted of the tonkatsu, half a California roll, grilled vegetables, steamed rice, tempura shrimp and chicken (one each). As an appetizer this meal also came with a soup and small salad. I declined the salad, I didn’t want to fill up, but the soup was good. The tonkatsu was pretty standard in my experience but the sushi roll itself was the breakaway. Dense, tightly wrapped, with excellent rice quality. Service was very friendly. We will definitely be visiting again.

Maybe I expected too much, We had the Goyza, Beef Tereiaki and and the Sushi Special. Goyza was horrible, beef teriyaky was ok, but wheres the beef? This dish came with 7 pieces of beef which where smaller then a nickle each for $ 11.50!!! OK, so what else can go wrong, OMG the sushi was the dagger in the heart, HORRIBLE, HORRIBLE, HORRIBLE. We couldn’t believe how a sushi place cant even get a simple California roll correct., the whole sushi dish was horrendous, STAY AWAY, TRUST ME!

I just ate here for my birthday celebration. We had a good amount of family, 20 in all. We did not call ahead which bothered the waitress but we got it all worked out. Once we all were seated they took our orders patiently. Everyone ordered all types of food. They took care of the kids first. In all we had 13 rolls. Everything was fresh and very good. The wait staff did a good job. I would def go back.

Great sushi, good service & great prices!

Excellent sushi and sashmi. Small, simple and not fancy but as good as any I’ve been to in the US.

We’ve been eating here a few times a month for several years now. Every time I go somewhere else, I’m always disappointed that it’s not as good as Asahi! What this place lacks in trendy décor and location, it more than makes up for in really good sushi!
It is family run and a fantastic shop. If you come in regularly, they get to know you, your preferences, and will go the extra distance to make your orders to your personal taste. The Ocean’s 11 is FANTASTC.

A great little simple sushi restaurant. Not a huge selection & one brother is friendly & the other a little rude. But the father is cute & funny little old man. The soup is awesome the ginger dressing is so great & I love the cucumber roll. The crab salad mix is pretty good. They have changed it a little & seems to be too creamy right now. But my to go orders are always right on & they r priced pretty cheap.

I’ve only eaten the sushi here and not off the other menu, so I can’t speak for that. but I’ve been going here for years (except when I lived in Chicago for 3 years) and it is fantastic.
I wasn’t sure I’d like it when I came back, but it was great. The rolls are really affordable and you get a simple but yummy soup and salad when you order sushi.
I just tried the asparagus roll for the first time last week… heaven.
