    Crispy Enoki

    Perfect Ambiance, excellent service, and outstanding food! So fresh and flavorful. 100% will return time and again!

    The food here is fantastic and if there are people in your party that don't care for sushi there are plenty of other options. Our server was great and flawlessly kept up with our party of 9. My sushi was wrapped in cucumber, which is my favorite and they don't do it everywhere. I also had an order of pot stickers that were tasty. My single roll and app were enough to satisfy me. Everyone was very happy with their food from hibachi to Bao to sushi! The espresso martinis didn't get a glowing review and all our food came out at different times over at least 10 minutes so it left many of us waiting for the birthday boy to get his food before we would dive in... at least with sushi I wasn't concerned about it getting cold.

    My family came here for dinner and really enjoyed it. We started with the pork belly buns, which were very delicious. My son had the hibachi steak and enjoyed his meal. I had their sushi and it was fresh and delicious. My husband enjoyed his sashimi which was served in a cool box. The service was very good and the interior Was nice. It felt like a place locals enjoyed a lot.

    There is suddenly no shortage of sushi/ramen joints in Asheville, which for a sushi/ramen lover isn't a bad thing (though I'd really love to see just one great pho place...I digress). The wife and I stopped in to try this new addition to the scene and left impressed. The space is a good size with quite a few tables and a good number of sushi bar seats. I wouldn't say there is anything remarkable about the setting or decor, but on a busy Saturday evening the vibe was relaxed and comfortable. The menu is extensive, including a nice sake list, copious sushi/sashimi options, and some interesting tapas and mains. If you can't find something that interests you, that's totally on you. If you have troubles making decisions, maybe bring a menu buddy to help you make the final call. It is not an inexpensive menu, so be prepared to spend a few bucks. The portions are generous, so there is balance. The sushi roll we had was well made, perfectly presented, and delicious. The yakisoba stir-fry was quite tasty, a nice depth of flavor. If you dig on octopus, the tako carpaccio was excellent (that citrus yuzu...). The spring rolls and miso were exactly as they should be. The service was friendly and accurate, even if a little slow at times due to the Saturday evening rush. We weren't in a hurry, so no big. The food came out quickly and accurately. If you love sushi or ramen or stir fry or sake - stop in and check out this new spot.

    The service was attentive and friendly. The decor has a beautiful Japanese aesthetic, creating a relaxing and inviting ambiance that's perfect for both casual and special occasions. The sushi was solid, with decent quality and good portion sizes. I really enjoyed the stir-fried udon. The noodles were perfectly cooked and the balance of meat, vegetables, and noodles was spot on -- it was absolutely delicious and packed with flavor.

    Delicious sushi, ramen, and tempura. We loved everything we ordered. If you're in the mood for ramen or sushi, check it out!

    Our second time here! Wonderful fresh food, great service and a fun atmosphere. The sashimi spoons are one of our favorites!!

    Panang Curry Ramen With Rare Pepper Steak.

    Service was excellent. Everything we tried was delicious. The crispy brussel sprouts, pork gyozo, and egg rolls were great appetizers. We tried the Patton sushi roll, which was quite good, as well as the steak lo mein. The highlight of the experience was the panang curry ramen with rare pepper steak. So flavorful! Our entire party enjoyed their meals and experience here.

    Gyoza

    Me and my husband decided to try this place while visiting Asheville. We did feel very welcome in this establishment. We ordered Pork Gyozas they were absolutely delicious. With it being cold outside we both decided to order ramen different types. Based off of our bowls and the contents of the bowls it was hard to distinguish which was which. When I see ramen at other restaurants I typically order Shoyu, there were some good ingredients within the bowl but the thing that we both agreed on was that the corn used in both bowls came from a can it had a metallic taste to it. We both came to the conclusion that the corn and the bok choy were the most out of place based off of how it was cooked. We also agreed that for the price of each bowls that we were pretty underwhelmed with the quality of the ramen. I will say that the atmosphere for the restaurant was beautiful, beautiful art pieces and well-lit. My thing about restaurants is that when there is an overwhelming amount of items on the menu I tend to get concerned about the quality of individual plates. I will say the presentation of the food was beautiful. Our server was very sweet and friendly. I just feel that what we got should be improved upon.

    After I ate it all!!! lol

The shishito peppers were wonderful and nicely charred with a great dipping sauce. The seabass may have been the tastiest item, the butter sauce and roasted lemon sauce was exceptional. We finished up with the carrots and bbq ribs, which were crispy on the outside but tender as you bit into the rib meat. Service was stellar as expected for any Michelin rated restaurant.

Perfection!!!

    I'm honestly really disappointed and won't be coming back. I've had a great experience here before,…read morewhich is why I brought my boyfriend for his first visit, but this time was a complete letdown--especially for the price. My boyfriend ordered the miso ramen and said the broth lacked flavor, the pork was way too chewy, and even the corn wasn't good. I got the Ito Ramen Deluxe, but it was overly smoky, the noodles were rubbery, and the pork was also too chewy. I couldn't even finish it. The only thing I actually enjoyed was the seasoned egg. The gyoza was decent, but it honestly tasted like it might be store-bought. The service didn't help either. Our server, Abby, wasn't very pleasant, and the drink options were extremely limited. Overall, I left feeling very disappointed. For the price, I could make better ramen at home for way cheaper.

    We stopped in here to revisit their amazing Chasu Pork Buns and Curry Ramen…read more.. The Buns were just as delish as ever...possibly the best bao buns I've had!! But the ramen tasted a bit weaker than last time. I thought the broth tasted much milder...not spicy enough. Luckily, I asked for Chili Oil on the side...and that definitely helped. My husband felt the same...Good, but not as good as last time. Also, the service much weaker. Our waitress was very aloof, and just did not look our way, not check on us...except just once? We had to literally flag her down. For these reasons, I've got to drop some stars this time.

    We appreciate the Yelp recommendations to try Wasabi…read more I am often skeptical of places along a main tourist area but Wasabi is the real deal...at least for the area. We were quickly seated at the sushi bar and the restaurant filled up quickly with other lunch clientele after that time. Sushi chef was efficient and our eel roll was fresh and delicious. Only 8 pieces so not that large. Would have paid more for a larger portion as we were sharing everything. Hot melt in your mouth yummy shumai were devoured. I saved some wasabi to add a little spice. Tempura appetizer included 2 large shrimp and veggie assortment. All around good meal!

    We came here after seeing it on Mountain Xpress's Best of WNC. I appreciated the vegetarian sushi…read moresection of their menu and they had plenty of non-sushi vegetarian options as well. I ordered a house salad and 3 sushi tolls - sweet potato, avocado, and mushroom and cream cheese (which I had never seen before). The prices were not bad for sushi. We came on Saturday night of a holiday weekend. We weren't expecting to be sat down right away because of how packed downtown was that night, but we were happy to get a table for two right away! Service did take a while, but we understood because of how full it was. Once we ordered, the food came out quickly and the add-ons we requested, like sauce, came out right away! I was let down by the house salad because it did not seem fresh. The ginger dressing was delicious, but some of the lettuce looked like it had been cut a while ago or stored for a while. The sweet potato roll was great, but I wish it had been dressed up a little bit perhaps with a drizzle of eel sauce on top. They brought me a side of the eel sauce quickly, though, when I asked, which was very appreciated. The avocado roll was top tier - fresh and a nice portion of avocado in the roll. The mushroom and cream cheese roll was interesting. It was probably my least favorite, but I just don't usually go for raw mushrooms. I wished they could have a veg combo with cream cheese, like with cucumber or another fresh veggie. Overall, we had a positive experience, but maybe knowing it had been so highly rated, I had higher expectations. I'd like to go back and try some of their non-sushi items, which looked good too.

It felt more personalized than what you normally expect at a restaurant. The server was cheerful and made us laugh. We ordered the house salad, which was fresh and the ginger dressing tasty.

The sweet potato roll was great - crispy with a little eel sauce on top. I added cream cheese to the avocado, asparagus, cucumber roll (which happens to be my favorite roll), and they added it with ease and for a fair cost (some places scramble when I ask for this roll). The joy roll with the tofu and crunch inside was so creative and great - probably my favorite roll. Then, I love it when places have the tofu skin nigiri, and they def had a good one.
