We came here on a Saturday evening around 6pm and the restaurant was packed, along with a lot of takeout orders. I got a sashimi salad and a negitoro maki. The negitoro maki was one of the best I've tasted in Vancouver. It's one of my fav rolls so I order it everywhere I go. The sashimi salad was good but nothing special. The decor is cute and ambience is chill and comfortable. It was difficult to get the staff's attention to order food or pay for the bill because they were busy. read more

Because of the review we wanted to try this place. Was disappointed. The food was just par and not cheap. I guess it's because it's located in kerrisdale so rent isn't cheap. The tempura was a bit dry and the chicken rice bowl was tasteless. Service was good though and place is pretty clean. read more

We always come here for Japanese crave. Tokyo-combo have varieties of sushi and sashimi, salad. we add another plate of sushi is satisfying for me and my husband and today is a good day, fast service always good food. read more

4 of us went today at 5:30pm. The food is expensive but ok . But the tea they serve is like a hot water that is brown in color NO tea taste at all They will refill easily but nooo taste, we told the server to add some tea leaves but was told they only make fresh tea leaves in the morning and just pour water the whole day yukkk and she said she cannot do anything about it we will not go back again read more

Ordered on Uber with my friends for a quick dinner and I'd say this place is nothing to write home about. A bit too much rice on the rolls and doesn't stand out from any other affordable sushi spot in the city. read more

Bento Box A and Chicken Don Great food at fair prices (well, every thing is more dear isn't it? ). Lots of food. Certainly they don't stint anything) Complimentary tea was great. Ambience is good, and certainly very busy for lunch ( try and get here before 1230) read more

Been awhile since I've been and decided to do a lunch pickup from here. The servers were friendly and helped me pack my food into the bag I brought. ASA roll combo- reasonably priced for 3 rolls and miso soup. It included dynamite roll, California roll, and spicy tuna roll. Honestly the rice was seasoned quite well that I probably didn't need the soy sauce. The shrimp tempura in the dynamite roll was still crisp even though I was late picking up my food. The spicy tuna had a nice kick. Overall, a pretty good deal for lunch. I didn't finish it all and had leftovers for a snack. Box A (beef)- bento box was quite large with plenty of pieces of tempura. It also included miso soup and a small sunomono. My friend ordered this but said it was pretty good. It looked like it had a good variety of items. At only $14.25, I'd say that's a great deal for lunch these days. Overall, I was happy with my food and the service. Also if you pay cash for takeout, you get 5% off. read more

First time at Asa Sushi in Kerrisdale on 41st Ave. We had cups and cups of tea. We also had the Mango Sushi Tower with mango, real crab tuna, avocado, rice. It is delicious and filling. The restaurant is cute. The staff attentive and respectful. Lovely place to catch up with a friend. read more

Small Japanese restaurant tucked in Kerrisdale. There's a few seating inside, but a lot of take-outs. Food is on the pricier side, but the dishes are well made. We ordered the Tako Yaki which was piping hot and melts in your mouth. The prawn tempura was super light and crispy and bento box A was pretty good. Service was fast and courteous. There's metered parking on 41st, but on a sunny day, you can park further or at one of the side streets for free. read more

Whenever we're in Kerrisdale, my friend and I always go for lunch - and it's usually sushi. There are 4 or 5 cute sushi restaurants on the main strip here (not including quite a few noodle/ramen restaurants, too). On a few occasions, we wanted to lunch at ASA but there was always a line, always a long wait, so we always moved on. But not today! We were able to snag a table inside right before the noon rush. The restaurant interior is small but cute and clean. The servers were all hustling but still were attentive. (This place is super busy at lunch-time!). The menu is crazy extensive, with a gazillion choices (nice!). But how's the food, you may ask? My friend ordered the "caterpillar roll", which was beautifully presented and very colorful, and she loved it. I, in typical fashion, ordered a lunch special (I like trying a sampling of various things). I got the "lunch box special B" which, for $14, had SO much food: a small salad (fresh greens with a lovely miso-like dressing), miso soup, 2 small gyoza dumplings (delicious), tempura prawns and yams (delicious and perfectly cooked), teriyaki chicken (delicious) and at least 6 large pieces of their California roll sushi (SO fresh and delicious). the meals came with tea, and everything was great. I ended up sharing my meal with my friend and still bringing home a lot of food (good thing I love leftovers!); it really was a lot of food, and I thought the prices were amazing for the quantity and quality of everything. The only oddity about this place was the bathroom access: practically walking through the kitchen and down a very narrow corridor, trying not to bump into servers holding trays of food and drink and ladling up miso soup from vats (this corridor is so narrow, barely two people can pass). Hard to navigate - and if one were mobility-challenged or in a wheelchair, forget about it. But once at the bathroom, at least it's large and clean, with a pretty porcelain sink, too. FYI. read more

There are some Japanese restaurants in Kerrisdale on the W 41st Ave. Asa Sushi was one of them I often walked past. It is a sushi and raw bar with nice wooden interior and exterior deco. I went here for lunch with a very hungry stomach so I decided to order Lunch Combo C. The combo came with Dynamite Roll (you can choose other rolls), tempura, nigiri sushi, salad, fried gyoza, pickle and miso soup. The portion was large and stomach filling. It costs $15.95 but surely you would get the value for money. The servers are attentive and polite. The tables were cleaned properly after the guests left the table. I will have beer if I come for dinner next time. This is a Japanese restaurant you can have beer and enjoy a good meal with friends after a long day work. read more

Got take out from them at around 1:00 pm. The wait was around 20 minutes. The portions are on the smaller side but enough to feed you 2-3 people. Their sauces aren't too sweet which I liked. The price is not bad. I had the spicy Salmon roll, salmon Maki, negitoro Maki, spicy tuna roll, Kerrisdale roll and Unagi roll. I wished the Kerrisdale rolls fried shrimp was less battered and more shrimp. My favourite roll was the spicy Salmon roll and my least favourite was the spicy tuna roll and salmon Makis. Tip: call ahead to order as they do get very busy read more

Always a line outside for lunch and now I know why. Excellent food, fast, friendly service, and very reasonable prices. Asa is now our go-to for lunch because the specials actually are "special". Miso soup, sunomono, fresh greens with a tasty dressing, two gyoza, perfect tempura (two prawns, two yam), chicken (or beef) teriyaki, 6 pieces California roll (another box has dynamite roll option for a couple dollars more) for $13! No wonder the place is packed! Plenty more options on the extensive menu and a veggie box special for those who prefer that. It is very difficult to get lunch in Kerrisdale restaurants for under $20 these days, and I really appreciate that Asa provides these delicious, substantial boxes for such reasonable prices. We are heading to Asa today for lunch, making sure we get there when it opens so we can grab a table. It gets full fast and there is lots of take-out going on as well. We have never had much of a wait in line, even if we get there a bit later. So don't worry about the line, it will be worth the wait! We highly recommend Asa in Kerrisdale! read more

The food was tasty and hit the spot. Service was relaxed and friendly. Solid place to grab a bite.

Central spot in kerrisdale. Come here off for takeout if ajisai is too hectic or closed. Pros: - the combos are a rlly good deal for quantity and variety of food - lots of vegetarian options - patient call-taker and quick pick-up service Notes: - Korean-style sushi, rolls on the larger side and more saucy compared to traditional Japanese sushi - meal for two about $35 after tax and tip read more

1) parking isn't the best but you'll find a way. Kerrisdale area is busy but it is what it is 2) seatings were okay the resto is well placed And cute exterior 3) service was gold. Food came fast. There's literally 3-4 chefs there making the food. Waitress came to table too fast though twice seeking for what to order and it for a bit too rushed 4) the chefs special isn't worth it all. $31 and it's so dinky. I mean it was good taste wise but definitely should of gotten more primo things on the menu and not the set. Very very regretting 5) big menu so get ready to be overwhelmed. Lots of options especially for those trying sushi for the first time 6) them clearing the table was also overwhelming and in the middle of us eating sometimes it's okay to wait 7) very kid friendly the menu 8) I gave a 3 star because if their charging 31$ for a chefs combo - I wish it was better things on it. * maybe give pitcher of water for bigger group (4 and up) so waitress doesn't have to keep coming back *'don't rush customer too much 9) over all decent read more

Fresh Sushi. Their dinner combos are great value and go so well with their draft Asahi beer. Good service.

This is a solid sushi restaurant . It's small but has some inside dining . The service was prompt and attentive . Food was delicious with fair proportions . Can get a little draft inside during the colder months as the front entrance door can be opening and shutting constantly . But definitely still recommended read more

Asa Sushi has been around for a while and it's a great place to go for sushi. Their service is always super quick and has a wide selection of rolls and other hot food options. Their portions and good for the price that you pay. We got a beef bento box with dynamite roll. The tempura was fried perfectly and the beef was flavoured well. Note, it doesn't come with rice for the teriyaki! We also got a california roll (typical) and a Red Dragon Roll. This was shared between a friend and I and there were still a few pieces of sushi left over! Another roll that I enjoy getting is the Crazy Love Combo - which is a Crazy Love Girl and Crazy Love Boy roll. Both rolls are delicious and goes well with each other. read more

I came here on a Sunday night and it was half full of customers. I ordered the salmon donburi and was impressed by the presentation and portion. The fish was fresh but average tasting. The service was so-so. The waiters were not very attentive in filling drinks and accidentally swapped our check with the table next to us. While I thought it was out of line for them to ask us to pay another table's check from their mistake by principle, it was only a dollar difference. read more

There are many places for sushi in kerrisdale ,like Ajisai, Irashai ,Jiu Jiang , I almost go different one at least once a week . Even like Asa sushi, I have been here for many times. Today is the first time they already add 15% tips in the bill and they said it's their policy. I want them to show me about this policy , they said it's just a oral policy. I didn't get any good service from them and our group is just me and four kids ，It's a just quick lunch for us . I feel like I have been forced to pay for the tips and it's really disgusting. read more

They have upgraded from last time I was here which is more than a few years ago. Modern menu and plating, still pretty affordable, the sushi scene in Kerrisdale is getting more competitive. The staff are friendly and polite. Everything we had were fresh -- tempura, fried chicken, salad, sashimi, especially the tempura. Chicken karrage smells really good, tho a little dry for my tasting. Mango lover is actually yam roll with mango salad, not mango in the roll. The Mayo in mango lover is a bit heavy. Sashimi salad and bento box are pretty decent. Next time I want to try the Osaka or Tokyo set menu. read more

Good pricing, good variety on their menus. Unfortunately, they don't take reservations, so the wait can be a bit long. They have some cool special rolls that are priced well. I got a Grouse Mountain roll and although there's only four pieces, one piece of the Grouse Mountain roll is almost the size of two. It's so cool - it's basically a tuna onigiri, deep fried. I loved the plating and how there was salad and radish to cleanse the palate. I was impressed by the originality and execution of the dish! I also had an avocado roll, and the roll was stuffed with the avocado. I love it when sushi rolls have an abundant amount of filling because it shows they don't try to skimp on the quantity. We were told that the owners are Korean so that they've got some good Korean stuff on their menu! They've only got a section of four menu items like Soon-Dubu & Bibambap; it would be nice if they had more, but after all, it is a Japanese restaurant. I tried some of the Soon-Dubu & it's a little too spicy (I can usually handle medium spice), but yummy. I don't think only one visit suffices, so I'd love to come back & try more items on the menu! read more

Honestly, I really like it here. Most of the food here is relatively well priced save a few. Especially so compared to most of the Japanese places located in Kerrisdale. You just have to order smart. For the most part, I think their service is pretty darn good and they're pretty quick with their orders and delivering the goods. Personally, I like ordering their lunch boxes because it gives you a decent variety of food to pick from and the price isn't too overly steep. They make pretty good tempura. However, I LOVE their nabeyaki (seafood hot pot) so much more. Absolutely DELICIOUS!! Oh and if you like Korean food, give their bibimbap a try, it's good :) Only Cons: I don't think I'll order the unagi don and Katsu don again. The unagi don was a bit pricey for the size I was given and the taste of the Katsu don was simply too sweet, weird and soggy. If I never tried their Katsu don, I think I would have given this place 5 stars :( Note: It's really busy and noisy here during lunch. read more

we went for dinner my husband my 1 and a half year old son, and he is super happy and he is always making noises, we just sit on our table and he started playing with his spoon and fork, for that the server approach to us and said the baby has to be quiet this is a restaurant, when we've never been told that in other restaurant, I don't know if she thinks baby's or kids in general are robots that you just turn on and off? the worst service we end up leaving the restaurant as soon as she said that read more

Yummy sushi spot in Kerrisdale. I love their Double Spicy Salmon Roll! If you are a fan of spicy salmon rolls, SKIP the normal order and get the double spicy; I PROMISE it is worth the extra $3!!! Service is always good and you can definitely feel that local-restaurant vibe here. Orders arrive really fast as well. Slightly more on the pricier side but I think that it is worth if you order their bento boxes or special rolls. This is my other go-to place besides Sushi Mura! read more

My favourite Kerrisdale sushi place, recommend their Crazy Boy, b/c it's a california roll--deep fried lol. What doesn't taste good, but also they have a house spicy sauce that's just right. And the decor is warm & in a way, a bit dim, but definitely nice enough to bring a casual date over the other ones along West Boulevard. Irashahi Sushi would be the next best comparison. Metered parking in the front. read more

Nice little spot in Kerrisdale, I'd give it 3.5 stars. It was nice and quiet when we went, so I didn't experience the poor service that some other Yelpers reviewed about. I got the bento box A, which came with tempura (prawns included), sunomono salad, imitation crab roll, miso soup, teriyaki chicken, gyoza, and a green salad. A lot of food for $10, and it was all delicious, but pretty standard fare. Highlight was the gyoza, which was pan fried extra crispy rather than soft and squishy like many other places. Low light was the sunomono, I didn't even eat more than a bite. It was like rice noodles in water with a touch of vinegar. Lame. Overall I was stuffed and happy, and if I'm in the area I would definitely check it out. read more

Surprisingly good. I remember not liking Asa the last time I visited the restaurant which was quite a few years ago. The interior looked wayyyy dingy-er than it does now. Looks like they did some much-needed renovations or had changed management? Not sure, but the menu and service seemed to look more polished this time around. I was with a group of 5 and sat at their center long table for lunch. I ordered their soba noodles and agedashi tofu - not bad at all. The noodles were cooked right and the tofu was crispy, but I wish they did smaller pieces instead of 4 big chunks. My friends tried their Korean dishes and it looked pretty good for a restaurant that's not "korean" (I'm always afraid to order inauthentic Korean food at a Japanese/Chinese restaurant that just wants to "diversify" but can't do it right). Their crazy boy and crazy girl rolls did look pretty solid too, I tried one and it was hot with good flavors. Come on, who doesn't like fried sushi?! Service was so so. Could use tea/water refills without asking for it. I'd go for Ajisai Sushi Bar if I can/want to pay extra $ for better food, but Asa is worth a try. I'm giving them 4 stars this time for the huge improvement from my last visit. read more

I had sushi pizza bites and my friend ordered a dinner bento box from this restaurant. Within hours I started experiencing bloating and severe stomachache, followed by days of runs to the rest room. We checked the Vancouver coastal health food inspection report list and found out this restaurant did not comply with multiple health standards and regulations. I highly recommend against going here. read more
