Asahi Sushi Bar

Yum! We stopped here for a late lunch on a whim and had a great meal. The sushi was so flavorful and was delivered quickly. We split the vegetarian maki, California roll, and shrimp tempura. All were good, but the sauce on the shrimp tempura was divine! A little on the pricier side, so we didn’t go nuts ordering, but what we had was tummy!
They have happy hour drink specials and lunch specials (i.e. Pick two rolls & a side from a list plus a drink for $ 13, $ 16, or $ 28). It’s a small place and wasn’t too busy at three in the afternoon.

Great place to hang with friends and family. The ambience is really smooth the music selection is great. Food is tasty and the texture of the rolls are very nice. The place doesn’t have parking but you can actually park anywhere in Rio Piedras. The prices are affordable and they have a good selection of beers. The juices are not natural and they have various soft drinks like ginger ale, Coke, etc. I gave them 4 stars because the place is not that appealing but it’s nice.

Went with my sister to this place, since she highly recommended me to drive there. I personally had no high expectations just wanted to fill my stomach. We arrived and before we even choose a place to sit a handsome employee offered me a cup of ice for the water I was carrying, and took our order. So there is the great and gentle service part. Appetizers, we ordered miso soup and fried dumplings, great combo. Our dinner, we ordered Philadelphia roll & shrimp roll. Delicious, ended up eating some of my sister’s as well. Anyhow, will definitely go back. Don’t forget to order your sushi with cream cheese.

Great personal service and savory sushi. The location is clean and spacious. We love the whole experience.

This place is awesome!!!
Great ambiance, we love it! My husband order orange chicken with tostones (fried plantain) and the tropi rolls (sushi with avocado, cream cheese, shrimp, and sweet plantain) and honestly this food was delicious!!!
Good price, amazing service (Natalia the waitress was very attentive and super nice, also the chefs did a beautiful presentation and everything was yummy)!
We’ll definitely be back.

Esta local es adictivo. Sumamente económico y rico. Las cervezas siempre frías! Los suchi saben sabrosos y frescos. El servicio es buenísimo. Lo recomiendo!

I’ve lived in Okinawa for 3 years and traveled South East Asia and explored the sushi scene at NYC and still exploring for good sushi in PR. I have to say that this one of my top ten.

Pleasantly surprised with this spot in Puerto Rico. Affordable (compared to San Francisco prices) and fresh. Expect to pay 15−20/pp for a meal, up to $ 25 with drinks and getting stuffed. Seaweed salad was quite good. I recommend ordering the orange dragon roll without cream cheese.
Skip the Miso soup, was too salty for my taste.

Food is good. Fish freshness is okay, could be better. But everything is super tasty. Mofongo rocks here. Service is goid but the orders come out veeeery slow. Only one sushi chef at a time. You can wait 45 minutes easily for a roll.

I have eaten at this restaurant three times now. I’m very sorry to say that I have just moved to an apartment within walking distance. I say «very sorry», because with this place so close to me, it is unlikely I will be reaching my gym goals!
I was skeptical on my first visit– the place is a bit poorly lit for my taste, and when I saw the rather affordable prices for sushi, I’ll admit I was worried about the quality. But those worries vanished when my food arrived. Very affordable sushi, and very good as well.
I’ve been back twice, and each time I make it a point to skip a meal so I can go just a little crazy. I may or may not have eaten 24 pieces of sushi during my last visit. Stop judging me…

Never had such an amazing service! The restaurant/​bar is small but very cozy and the vibes of the people that go are great! The sushi was very tender and fresh. The prices are not an exageration and so worth the food.

Veryy good
