"Very cheap lunch, decent food, but boring atmosphere. The interior is outdated which is okay. Everything costs money and I understand that but there wasn 't any music playing during my visit. This made my experience boring to a point where I became sleepy. But it was a slow day towards the end of lunch hours and my table was basically one of the couple that were occupied. The staff being bored out of their minds as this place is almost empty got my food out very quickly which is important. Trust me, I 've been to a couple places where it 's dead but still took ages for my food to arrive. Bento boxes here are a little different from the ones I 've had elsewhere. Elsewhere usually has a protein of choice, rice, shumai, sometimes tempura and a basic roll. Here at Asahi they had hibachi noodles (slightly bland purposely as you are supposed to mix with the sauce and protein, just a heads up) white rice, protein of choice, California Roll, $2 tempura option, and diced pineapple from a can. Like what? Canned pineapple for dessert I guess! In their defence, my Beef Teriyaki Bento Box was $7.95 which is a few dollars cheaper than most other places. Also comes with soup and salad btw. So yes I am a fan of the prices, the meal was filling and like I said the food is decent, nothing amazing but nothing bad either. Just something passable for cheap lunch that would put a slight smile on my face. The staff was very friendly too, everyone seemed very nice. Oh right! I ordered sushi! Spicy Salmon and Spicy Crabmeat which were good as well, I notice they were on the drier side if you no what I mean but I 'm not complaining, super cheap for two rolls at lunch. My experience was so boring that I forgot I had sushi! I 'm joking, but this was a very forgettable experience for me but being a local around here as it took 5 minutes to get here, this place is good enough to be an option for me considering the prices. 3 Stars from a local, no way I 'd drive 30 minutes for this place. But that 's just my experience, hopefully things go uphill from here."
