| - Having worked in this area for about 5 years of my life, I am no stranger to Asahi. I've been here for both lunch and dinner service, and it is a very different experience for both.
Being a popular spot for the businesses up at Bloor, lunch time is pretty packed. Go early, and make a reservation if you need a bigger table. They have a second floor, and a back patio (for the summer) which can accommodate lots of numbers. At night time, the restaurant is pretty quiet.
The menu is the same for both lunch and dinner, and it is reasonably priced given the area. The sushi itself is quite good, with consistently nice plating. Nothing ruins a dish more than sloppy visuals, y'know? I normally stick to the sushi sets (at the back of the menu), Spicy Sushi Set being my favourite! I find these sets are better value than ordering a la cart, or even the sushi boats.
Last things to point out is that tea is $1, service is generally pretty slow, and they take American Express.
