The experience eating here was terrible to say the least. First of all it’s not a cheap place to eat so with that being said finding 2 hairs in our food and a roach crawling across our table right in front of us where we was eating was absolutely disgusting!!! This was only the 2nd time of eating here but will NEVER go back!

This place is a hidden gem! The restaurant wasn’t crowded and we were seated immediately. The service was fast and friendly, and the food was really good. I highly recommend the filet mignon, shrimp, and chicken combination. If you’re looking for a great Japanese steakhouse experience, Asahi is definitely worth a visit!

Words can not describe this place. It’s just absolutely terrific and feels like you’re entering heaven for ur taste buds! I come here for special occasions to enjoy myself with my family, and it always promises to fill you, give lots of food, and get a show all at once.
The hibachi chefs here are all super nice and funny, constantly making people laugh or smile while doing their cooking entertainment. The waitresses are fast to get everything needed and cleaned up, and they’re super sweet and understanding!
They’re always clean and make sure of it before opening up for the day, leaving no crumbs or anything on the floors. They even take requests and fulfill them if not actually on the menu, such as plain white rice!
The sauces they give for option are so good! So creamy, gives off a good tangy kick, and just hits the right spot with the food being paired together with it. I love the two classic favorites of ginger and yum yum sauce.
The prices are average and they give you good amounts for what you pay, making it fair. They cook all the food to perfection, which melts in ur mouth and is so hot coming off of the flat grill. They always keep the flat grill clean, too constantly washing it off and scrapping it after the entertainment is all done for the night.
Everything they use here is a fresh product not frozen and the same for the sushi next door to the hibachi, which also even takes on special requests.
The fish tank in the little section over onto your right before going into the sushi area has a cute little corner setup with a beautiful fish tank full of beautiful and all different types of fish. They constantly keep this fish tank around unless being cleaned at the time.
Let me also say how this is the only hibachi place that serves noodles! They also cook them perfectly too just like everything else. Mouth watering how good this food is and especially such a nice special treat to spoil yourself with.
I will always come here if it’s with family or not for a special occasion. I’m craving hibachi and feel like it! Forever love Asahi and hope they stay around for the rest of my life and my daughters!

This restaurant offers a superb quality of Japanese food and sushi, prepared with authentic ingredients and techniques. The prices are reasonable, considering the high standard of sushi grade seafood that is not easily available in the area. The parking situation can be challenging, but it is usually manageable. The service is always excellent, attentive, and courteous. I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone who enjoys a satisfying and exquisite Japanese meal.

It’s always a joy to come to Asahi when I’m in town visiting my in-laws! This was my second time here, and the quality was just as good if not better than my first visit 3 years ago! You definitely get your money’s worth! Thank you for serving the area for over 30 years! The Hibachi chef was great, the experience and atmosphere was as great as usual!

The seafood was really fresh and everything tasted really good. They give you a good sized cut of fish as well. The sashimi and nigiri slices were thick and was a good size. The soft shell crab was delicious but the grilled squid was kind of lacking. Oftentimes they are busy, but the wait is not too long.

I hesitate to even leave this review because part of me wants to keep Asahi a secret. It’s one of those rare spots you stumble into and instantly hope no one else finds out about because you always want to get a table and not wait.
Asahi feels like stepping into a time capsule in the best possible way. It brings me right back to the 90s sushi spots I grew up with in the greater DC area of Virginia. From the menu layout to the decor, it has that old-school charm that’s almost impossible to find anymore. I almost couldn’t believe what I was seeing.I truly thought this layout and presentation had gone the way of the dinosaur.
These days, there’s a sea of AYCE sushi joints popping up everywhere. Gimmicky. Highly derivative menus. Most of them completely miss the mark and end up ruining what I grew up being taught was an art form. That’s what makes Asahi so special. Up front, they’ve got the hibachi setup for the people of the land, the common clay. You know… BUT head to the back and you’ll find the real magic. A deep, thoughtful sushi menu with rich variety, beautiful presentation, and yes, real wasabi if you ask for it.
The wait staff actually sticks around and remembers you, which says everything about the heart behind the place. I’m still blown away that this kind of spot exists in Greensboro. They’ve been here for decades and it shows. It’s the real deal, and I couldn’t be more hyped to have found it.
Be warned, and make no mistake, it ain’t cheap. But what truly good sushi is?

They charge $10 extra to split a dish with someone else. The food is good(I especially enjoyed the soup that they face first) and it is entertaining to watch the people cook in front of you. They have options for both forks and chopsticks.

We went for my birthday and it was a wonderful experience. I had the steak and scallops, green salad with ginger dressing, and the soup. Delicious and the chef was fun!
