Amazing food Amazing Servise 5 starts people working here are super nice! And respectful Gave us free dumplings definitely coming back!

Our favourite local sushi spot conveniently located just near Jane station. Love the miso soup and great vegetarian sushi options!

Right across from Jane station, so a convenient for TTC users. Came in with a group of 18 around 5 PM on a sunday. It was pretty empty at the time since they just opened for the evening, so they combined a number of tables together and re-arranged the walls as needed, which was pretty nice. The interior is decorated pretty nice. Menu comes with a lot of options, which is pretty normal. After 30 minutes of deliberation, four of us ended up ordering four "Large Fusion Rolls" that weren't available on the party trays, which are said to be "double size" and 11-12 pieces each. The rolls were quite large. A lot larger than I expected. One roll would probably be good enough for one person. Enjoyed the taste and texture of each roll. Would say they are better than getting some of the roll combos. Free tea. Free edamame Disposable chopsticks provided. Can't complain about large rolls. read more

It's been about about 14 years since I last came to ASA. My high school was around the corner from this restarting. It hasn't changed one bit. The food is pretty decent for a small hole in the wall across the Jane subway station. Staff is really nice here considering how busy it was on Valentine's. We got the Jane and Bloor roll, crazy boy roll, and the green dragon roll. It was huge!! The crazy boy roll was really interesting. It was deep fried with some crab and and avocado inside. Never had a deep fried roll before. It worked though. The green dragon was my favourite. Avocado was delicious, nice, creamy and super soft. Partner that with some quality salmon? Asa puts soft shell crab in the green dragon too. It's really yummy. How can you go wrong. The Jane and Bloor roll was really interesting, there's some salmon, crab meat, shrimp tempura, and avocado in there. Great combo. Definitely a must eat. Considering it was 3 items. We had left overs from the next day. Oh I almost forgot. We also ordered the sashimi combo, 2 pieces of salmon, 2 pieces of tuna, and 2 pieces of butter fish. All really good quality! Make sure you come with an empty stomach. You won't leave hungry, I guarantee you that. The only reason why I'm giving it 3 stars is because of the wait time for food. We arrived at 7:05 and didn't get food until about 7:45. Far too little staff for the busy valentines night. We were given edamame on the house as a result. I'd definitely come back on another occasion for a quick bite if I'm in the area. read more

Been coming here since high school and I love it! Service is always great any time I go. Prices for a la carte are fairly reasonable. Favourite roll is the You Go Girl roll. Its always made SO good! If you love cream cheese and salmon, you'll love the You Go Girl. Will keep coming back here! Just hoping that they go through renovations, the place has been the same for so long now, would be nice to see it updated. read more

Adorable small restaurant at the corner of Jane and Bloor. Easily accessible since it's across the street from Jane station. Very friendly staff that never fail to have a smile on, and the owner can be found behind the bar rolling the sushi himself. The prices are super affordable which is a plus given the neighbourhood. I always order either the bento lunch boxes or their deep fried california rolls. read more

ASA Sushi - This was bento box with salmon . Nothing special . Cost 13.99 - Sushi Bars Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

Love ASA Sushi! :) Yes it is extremely handy to my neighbourhood but it is actual one of the best sushi place I've ever been to! I bring all my friends here and everyone loves it! Great selection with unique fusion rolls (try Jane and Bloor roll!), fresh and tasty sushi, friendly staff (even the chef smiles and says hi), nice atmosphere, good prices and if you want take out they are quick. The only negative is that they are not open on Mondays! read more

Came here to fill up before a road trip. It's a medium price point with a few seating areas as each table is sectioned off by panels. While there I noticed that most people came here to order and take it out, possibly because the owner/workers kids were loudly playing in the front? They weren't screaming or anything like that they were school aged children but loud enough to be distracting during our meal. The meal itself was good. I ordered shrimp tempura, a crunch roll (crab, shrimp and vegetables). My boyfriend ordered a tuna roll and a salmon roll and California roll. The California roll had diced crab which was different but was full of flavour none the less. The shrimp tempura was good, not the best ive ever had but not the worst either. The crunch roll was the biggest sushi roll I've ever had! It was roughly the size of a hockey puck! Because of the size it was rolled loosely and therefore was a bit hard to eat, but otherwise tasted good. Food wise I would give this place a 4 but the kids causing ruckus while we were trying to eat brought the ambience down. read more

Been eating here for over 15 years as my sister was friends with the daughters owner. It is the best sushi I've had to date and will continue to be my go to for take out night. Their staff is pleasant and always catch up with me and for a small restaurant the environment is surprisingly calming. Haven't had a single complaint in those 15 years and will continue to eat there weekly. read more

Sushi bars are a dime a dozen in Toronto but ASA is definitely one of my top choices. The staff is extremely friendly and will say hello to anyone that walks in... even if the chef is midway through slicing a maki roll! The quality of the sushi and sashimi is excellent and there's a wide variety of rolls, nigiri, sashimi and combos to chose from. As a bonus to all you veggies out there, they take great care not to contaminate vegetarian rolls with the pesky massago fish roe that stick to every surface known to man. My only complaint is the dressing on the salad. It's a chunky citrus flavoured paste and I much prefer the creamy tangy dressing of other downtown locations. All in all a great place for sushi on the west side. read more

I've been coming to ASA for the last 6 years, and I have to say it is my favourite sushi place. My friends and I come here often and the service is great! The main guy who makes the sushi is so nice and friendly and the waitresses are all nice as well. I always order the deep fried california roll, dynamite roll, and the crunch roll with their spicy mayo (soooo good). It's not all you can eat, and it's a little pricey if you order multiple kinds of sushi, but it is definitely worth it! Even ran into Fefe Dobson there once! I highly recommend this place, and it's very convenient because it's right outside Jane station. read more

It's easy to miss this little Japanese restaurant off Bloor and Jane, and it certainly feels secluded. Even the inside, which is criss-crossed with screens, is snug without being cramped. The schlocky, non-Japanese muzak, however, gets a bit annoying after a while. They've got a really good lunch special for about $6 (the usual choices of sushi, miso soup, etc.), and the traditional carrot dressing on the salads strikes me as particularly tasty here. read more

ASA Sushi - a car parked in front of a restaurant - Sushi Bars Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

Went for lunch. They're lunch specials are few and not the greatest. $6 for sushi, beef or udon combos, and $11 for bento boxes. Good service, forgot about us a few times, but not bad. When the menu says spicy, they really mean it. Be careful. Ordered the spicy tuna and spicy salmon rolls, the spicy tuna was too spicy to eat. Also got the Special Crunchy Roll and it was delicious! They do a really good job at the fancy sushi rolls. read more

Was going to give this place one star because they served me spoiled tuna, but as I was treated well and discounted the offending item they get a gold star. Seriously though, with all the great reviews I was very disappointed with this place. The sauce they're using for their spicy rolls is disgusting, and the rolls themselves are remarkably small. The worst part? They're actually a bit pricey. So by putting themselves in the same ballpark as, say, Raaw Sushi, you'd expect a lot better. I've had a lot of sushi in Toronto, and this is by far some of the worst. read more

I LOOOVE coming to ASA, even though its pretty far from where I live. It's right across from Jane station so it's not a huge effort if I'm taking TTC. The fusion rolls are amaaazinngg. You Go Girl is me and all my friends favourite roll, and I have yet to find anything else quite like it at any other sushi place. Prices are good for what you get. Me and my friends always end up leaving full and satisfied with what we have eaten. I love Salmon Lover A - comes with all you need to fill your salmon craving. One thing that i have learned to live with at this place is that water is seldom refilled - so beware of spicy rolls when you are running low on water. But this small fact will not take a star away from this wonderful place. read more

Meh. Extraordarily average. I could mention the pros and cons but my ambivalence about this place prevents me from bothering. Did I mention they have "Robster Salad"? Lol. read more

ASA Sushi - Lol. They have "Robster Salad". - Sushi Bars Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

I go here when I can't bother to go downtown or when my sushi craving won't hold through the traffic. I find the rice is mushy (for lack of a better word). Service is always great. But I can't stand the decor. read more

Great variety, keeping up with the nouveau sushi menus of interesting and varied maki rolls. The sashimi pieces are almost too big, but very fresh. I addition to sushi they also have a small Udon soup menu, and provide some alternatives for those who don't care for raw fish (chicken katsu, beef teriyaki). The decor is plain, Japanese style, no frills. Family run, and very friendly. read more

Who doesn't love sushi? Lots of sushi places in Bloor West. This place is just north of Bloor at Jane. The sashimi was fresh but it also didn't taste like anything other than cool chunks of fish. I find this a common problem at many sushi places. The spicy salmon roll was not done in the usual way that I've had it in other sushi restos. It tasted like salmon combined with some tabasco sauce and turned into a roll and not in a good way. The other rolls were fine. Service was friendly and there was a line up of people waiting for our table when we left so it seems to be a popular spot for the locals. read more

Good, reasonably priced, friendly service. If you want spicing/sauce, this isn't the place for you. Cool clean flavours, fresh fish, great vegetarian options. NOT high-end, this is a neighbourhood drop-in casual sushi place. They do heavy business in take-out as well. read more

I have been going to Asa for years and really enjoy their sushi. It's always good quality and always very tasty. We ordered from them this evening and the food arrived warm and delicious. Would definitely recommend. read more

We have been going to ASA Sushi since we moved into the neighbourhood 2+ years ago, (almost once every two weeks like clockwork) and we've never had a bad experience. The food is typical Sushi. Rolls, Sushi and Sashimi. Apps, Great Miso soup and salty Edemame. The group that runs the place seem like a family, though I've asked, and they aren't all related. They're so friendly and attentive, and are always smiling and courteous. We got delivery tonight (even though we live two blocks away) and it was the patriarch who did the delivery. What a great team. We will continue to go to ASA for as long as we live in the hood... Food is top notch. Service is fast. My favourite is the crazy boy roll, the Jane/Bloor Roll, and the Unagi (BBQ Eel) Sushi. Jane subway is right across the street. read more

This is one of my favourite places for take out. I have never had a bad meal here. I agree with some other reviewers on slow service at times - however it's a family business and its understandable that they can't hire an army of waiters. On those extremely busy nights even the cooks help bring out the food and they are always friendly. They really try hard... I prefer take out since I'm pressed for time and sitting in such a small space leaves my clothes smelling of tempura :)) read more

The owners are very kind and pleasant. The sushi overall is of much better quality compared to any AYCE In Toronto. I especially enjoy the Jane Bloor Roll, massively delicious. This place will continue to receive my patronage. read more

I love their California rolls! I'm not a big fan of it usually but The way they make the roll is amazing. So tender and tasty. I always get the California rolls from this restaurant. read more

We've been picking up Asa sushi for years. It's been amazing every single time. Quick, too! We've eaten in a few times and the service is always friendly. Can't really comment on anything other than the sushi, because that's all we order. But it's the best sushi we've ever had. read more

I would just like to say that I have been a sushi eater for years, trying different places along the way. I am 3 months pregnant right now with my first child and as many of you may know, pregnant women are advised not to eat raw fish of any kind. Of course I am willing to make this sacrifice, but the problem is that I really like eating sushi! I met with a friend this afternoon to surprise her with the news, she suggested we go to Asa sushi. Before my friend arrived, the friendly staff asked if I would like to see a menu while I was waiting. I took this opportunity to ask about what my options were for non-raw fish sushi. She was very helpful and suggested a few things I can order, and even went to ask the kitchen to make sure of whether or not certain things were cooked. When it came time to order, the chef came to take the order and I was able to order many of my favourites (dragon roll without the crab meat and fish eggs...etc...) with a little substituting! Everything I had was cooked, yet I was still enjoying it just as I did before. Before going in to the restaurant, I was thinking that I would be having some cucumber and avocado rolls. Which would have been fine, but a little on the boring side for me. I ended up enjoying lots including rolls with cooked eel and fried soft shell crab, and shrimp tempura. Definitely 5 stars! The portion sizes were very good! Prices were good! Good location with subway across the street and Green P parking a block away. read more

Ordered take out sushi last night from ASA. Unfortunately it was less than stellar. The rice was bland and could use more vinegar. Spicy salmon roll was one dimensional. The soy sauce was too salty. The worst part was that I found a strand of curly hair embedded in my California roll. It's safe to say that we won't be ordering from here again. read more

Great quality and very decent prices. We really like coming here. I recently tried a new place downtown and honestly was reminded why ASA is my favorite (that new place had the worst cut of tuna I ever had. At ASA I never have any complaints). Sometimes the small things they miss are: tempura a bit oilier, tea and/or soup not hot enough, and their wait staff is too distracted/hurried/not experienced (I honestly thin these girls are family - daughters or nieces - and they are definitely not in the waiting business lol). But in general - very friendly - and remember their regulars! read more

I've been going to Asa for quite a few years now it's a little gem in this neighborhood. The staff are really friendly and so are the owners. I love their maki rolls especially Jane and Bloor roll! So good. Their sashimi is always fresh and delicious when I go. I think the prices are good for what they give. The bigger maki rolls are HUGE compared to the ones downtown for a decent price. read more

I've been going here for a couple years now. The sushi is always fresh and delicious. Everyone who works here is friendly. The soup and salad are yummy and I've not had a piece of sushi I didn't like. They also do take out and it's really fast. Mmmm. read more

It's average sushi I would say. The staff was friendly but boy was the service ever slow. I'm not sure if I just went on an off night but it took so long to get our order or even be seated when there were lots of tables open. If I was in the area, I might come back but I wouldn't go out of the way to. read more

Low prices, huuuuge portions, I would have loved this place in university. That being said, their rolls go heavy on the fillers like rice and fake crab (impossible to avoid in this place) and skimp on the nice sashimi meat. We ordered alcohol, apps, and the most expensive thing on the menu (large party tray) for just two of us, but they didn't bring one of those little freebie side salads, which I've sort of come to expect at little sushi places. Side note: we will definitely order their ramen again, as take-out, great broth. read more

ASA Sushi - 54-piece party tray - Sushi Bars Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

Tasty and reliable sushi in Bloor West Village. I always order the double salmon roll - it is my husband (and kids'!) favorite roll!

This place is kind of mediocre. The sashimi cuts are pretty generous, but the prices are very high compared to what you can get at other places in the city. ASA charges about as much as, say, Wow Sushi, but is much less creative and has less variety in the kinds of fish you can get. Service is fine, not great. My teacup was empty for more than half of the duration of my meal. read more

Always dependable. This is our local favourite Japanese in Bloor West Village. Street parking limited before 6pm.

Maybe this is because I've had superb quality sushi but this sushi restaurant is horrible. I don't know about these great reviews to be honest. I ordered the spicy tuna and not only was the rice not fresh, the tuna tasted weird. Definitely not going back. read more

One star might seem extreme, but this place - despite the decent sushi - has awfully slow and oblivious service. My bf and I waited for a half hour without acknowledgement by their sole waitress. They give preference to takeout orders and ignore those who take the time to walk inside. We ultimately chose to leave. Take your customers for granted, and your success won't last forever. They've certainly lost our business. read more
