We had carryout this time, but my husband said the restaurant was so nice that he wants to dine in next time. And there will be a next time! The food was excellent! We have been searching for years for a quality Asian restaurant and now, finally (!) we have found it! read more

Friendly staff. Fun evening of food with a show. I had the hibachi shrimp and chicken. Love the yum yum sauce.

I recently got tonkatsu ramen from Asami and it was delicious. The flavors were perfect and the warm broth really brought me so much joy. Can't wait to go back to experience hibachi and sushi. The staff on the phone were friendly and helped me navigate the menu. read more

Bento Box for lunch!! Finally found another place to serve our bento boxes. Enjoyed the shrimp bento box that came with fried rice, california rolls and an egg roll. We started with Miso soup that really hit the spot during this cold snap. Next time I'm going to try the hibachi because from the laughing at one of the tables, I believe the chef was putting in a great show! I will gladly go back to this place! read more

Girls Lunch Day Out! My 7 year old recommend this place for me to try. Her and my sister...well I guess I should say her mother; frequent it. Very low keys no need to dress up. It's kind of like being in a bar. It was kind of humid in the store, but the service was great. Our waiter was so engaging and had the best attitude. I had the salmon tempura roll and spring rolls. Delicious. Very satisfying without feeling stuffed. read more

Food is good. If you're ordering online: You pay a premium over their in-house menu price. In addition, you pay a flat "Processing fee" that may or may not be displayed when you check out. It shows up when you check out. I've seen it both ways, but you pay it either way. I prefer a transparent experience and have other good sushi places near me where this tactic is not part of how they operate. I would choose that experience. I know restaurants are struggling and support them when I can. I don't like surprises. So, don't be surprised. Just my opinion and experience. The subtle and overlooked fees need to stop. read more

We really enjoyed the sushi and will def keep ordering from here. Hibachi was fun for the kids

Back again! This is my go to meal lace because they never disappoint. Dee Dee served us today and was hilarious. Love this place! read more

My wife and I have been wanting to try this so we went tonight for anniversary and I can't say how well we enjoyed it. The service was spectacular and the food was second to none. Our chef did a great job and put on the best hibachi show we've ever had. She ordered the filet and I had the filet and shrimp. We took one of our sons and his wife with us. One got steak and chicken and the other had the hibachi Asami combination which is steak, chicken, and shrimp. The 2 combinations were only $1 more than the filet and the 3 combo was $2 over the cost of the filet. Don't think that the combos were smaller portions because they were not. My steak was as large as my wife's and a full portion of shrimp. The others also got full portions of each. We looked at our plates and immediately decided that we would all need to go boxes which we did. Our food was spectacular in every way. The clear soup and the salad were awesome. Their ginger dressing is so good! Our meats were all cooked perfectly the way we asked and so tender. The veggies were great and we all got fried rice which was also very tasty. The restaurant itself was immaculately clean and decorated very well. Never once did we wait for service as the servers were on top of it. The restrooms were very clean which you usually don't find at hibachi restaurants. I will say this is THE BEST Hibachi restaurant in the area and we'll be back again and again. One of our son in laws has to eat gluten free so we asked about that. They told us they do accommodate that but make it in the kitchen and not on the table grill so there is no cross contamination. I can't say enough about how awesome of a dining experience this was tonight. If I could give them 10 Stars I would. Don't miss this place because I guarantee you will love it. read more

We ordered take out. 3 rolls: Dragon, West Chester and Rock and Roll and some chicken stir fry. The rice was dry on the rolls. There was some flavor but overall not appetizing, even adding chile sauce and soy sauce didn't help. The Chicken stir fry was better though the chicken did not have flavor. The noodles were moist which was nice. We have gone to many places and the noodles were rubbery and or dry. If we give this place another chance it will be dine in though we will not have take out again. The person at the counter was kind and pleasant which is why I gave this 3 stars. read more

Great food and great experience! Took my daughter here for her 11th birthday dinner and they took great care of her and made her feel special! Highly recommend. read more

Honestly my husband and I probably going to become regulars with how amazing their sushi is. I looooooove their volcano sushi!!!

Not the greatest experience but would recommend giving the Hibachi Grill experience a try. Like many Asian Hibachi Grill restaurants, Asami has both standard menu table service and Hibachi Grill options for customers. When I visited, it was for a weekday lunch at a standard table off the menu. First off, the service was great. We were immediately seated and our server was perfect throughout the meal. On this particular Thursday at around 12:30pm, it was extremely quiet. Maybe 3 to 4 tables occupied. Hopefully this kicks up for them and/or that dinners are much busier. The food.... Drink: Diet Coke. Something was off. Don't know what it was, but the Diet Coke was awful. I didn't bring it up and just drank it. But I noticed a hint of sanitizer. We've all had this happen and it's not great. I'd rather sanitizer than realizing I've been drinking were the last person's lipstick prints haven't been washed off. So I guess there's an upside. Appetizer: Crab Rangoon. These were actually really good. Not the typical looking Rangoons as these were triangles. Light, crispy and full of the cream cheese filling. I liked these quite a bit. Lunch: Teriyaki Steak Lunch Bento Box. This came with Miso Soup, four pieces of California Roll, a good portion of sliced Teriyaki Steak, one spring roll (cut in half, and steamed white rice. The California Roll was just okay. Something was off. Like the Diet Coke, there was this sanitizer flavor that was in there as well. I can't explain it. The roll just didn't "pop" with freshness. I can't say if it was fresh or not, but it simply didn't impress. The Teriyaki Steak had a few things going on. The steak itself wasn't bad. Like most places, it was over cooked and not the best cut of meat, but it was okay. The best way to describe the sauce would be "lame". It was there visually, but it was not there in flavor. It was just nothing. Really low scoring on the steak. The spring roll was quite good. Cut in half, assuming for presentation, but I'd rather they just leave it whole. The white rice was just that - steamed white rice. Unfortunately I did not look closely at the itemized list. Here was the breakdown of our lunch: - 2 Fountain Drinks - 1 Crab Rangoon Appetizer - 1 Teriyaki Steak Lunch Bento Box - 1 Teriyaki Shrimp Lunch Bento Box Total: $41.00 (tip not included) It is completely my fault for not looking closer at the pricing on the lunch menu. But, for a lunch menu, I would expect to pay much less than $50 for two people to have lunch. If the food was on point, I probably wouldn't have felt that sting. Because of how I felt the food was, that's when the $50 really needled me. Would I go back? I'm not saying I'd never go back or saying that I wouldn't try their Hibachi Grill. But I have to consider that in our area, there are a number of good options that I would likely choose over Asami. When it comes to Hibachi Grills, well, (my opinion only....) if you've seen one, you've seen them all. They all mostly do the same tricks and same deal. Some of the Chef's are maybe a little more animated, interactive or talkative than others. Unfortunately I don't think I'd recommend Asami for lunch. I hate saying this because I want local businesses to do well and I think everyone should give it a shot. Plus, the server and the people there seemed very nice as well. It was just the food. The food wasn't all that good. Maybe it was a fluke or a bad day. Who knows. read more

We went here for a friend's birthday dinner. I want to say better things about the place, but my wife and I have been to many habatchi places around the city and this was not our favorite. The service was great and the show was good. However, I would only go back for the food and the food was not worth a trip back. Also, the Moscow Mule that my wife ordered was probably the worst one we ever tasted. It was an okay time. I would only return if invited by someone else. read more

Good food and entertainment. Have been there a few times now. They seat you quickly and start the meal even if there are only 2 of you.

This is a family owned and operated business located in the shopping plaza where the old Krogers used to be. We go here regularly and their product is outstanding and fresh. I am a bit of a sushi snob and this place has become my "go-to" Sushi joint. I recommend this place to anyone who is looking for good quality Sushi at a very good cost point. https://www.asamioh.com/ Randy S. West Chester, OH read more

We've ordered on-line for local pick-up and visited for dinner last week and we're planning to go again and probably again. The food and service were excellent. I have to admit that the dine-in experience was the better of the two. The service was excellent. Our waiter was attentive and worked with us to find and experience the best options. read more

Stopped in to check out a new restaurant close to home and was pleasantly surprised. The bartender made a delicious tequila sunrise and the atmosphere was really nice. I'm looking forward to trying their sushi and hibachi very soon. read more

We were looking forward to trying this new hibachi place and finally did tonite. It is very similar to Benihana, but MUCH cheaper and slightly better on many levels. We didn't have to wait as long for our chef to arrive, the food was every bit as good and the portion sizes generous. Service was friendly and attentive. Plus, even after spending much less, they gave us a $10 card to use on our next visit. We will be returning soon. read more

This place is super cute on the inside. Not busy on a Friday night. We actually left Toki because they were slammed and after 30 minutes waiting for a server and a drink had to go to plan B. Asami delivers on the sushi. Presentation on the boats with flowers is off the chart. Sushi quality was superb. Drinks cold and service prompt. Reasonably priced too. I think the only miss was my wife's chicken stir fry dish was just OK. Not much flavor. Sushi was a will return though. read more

Ordered chicken hibachi for myself and a salmon hibachi with extra veggies for my lady and both meals were extremely bland the fried rice was basic no flavor or seasoning and it was extra for fried rice by the way. And the yum yum sauce was watery this is a very basic place that looks amazing on the inside but the food is something you can make at home. read more

Went during a down time (2:30) and place was nice and quiet. Crab Rangoons were crispy and flavorful. Got the Tuna Pizza appetizer as well and it was fresh. Got an Alaskan Roll and a Hot Mama roll. Both were amazing. The Hot Mama was crispy with just enough kick. Service was attentive but not over bearing given there wasn't anyone there with us and our server was friendly read more

Went for the first time and was impressed by the atmosphere and the wonderful sushi. Salmon skin hand roll, one of my staples and test of a new place was tasty and a work of art. The agedashi tofu was crunchy but tender with a nice spice. miso soup was yummy and the gold salmon appetizer was the best. read more

I have been there three times in less than a month! The first time was on my birthday. Not only did we have two great hibachi dinners, they sang happy birthday to me, gave me a fried ice cream dessert and a birthday crown. The next time we went, we had spring rolls and Gyoza appetizers, two sushi rolls and hibachi dinners - again. The food was just as good as the first time and there was so much of it we had to take home leftovers. I met a group of friends there the third time, but this time, I just got Gyoza and a Pink Lady sushi roll. I think I'm going to have to get a Pink Lady sushi roll every time I go now, it was so good and so pretty! My friends all loved the place and were very happy that I suggested it. I'm glad Asami is so close to my house, I'll be going there often. read more

As word filled the streets of West Chester of Asami opening up, I felt the need to go see if all the hype was real. Well folks, I can confirm this place has that "it" factor. We walked into a quaint area that served all your needs. Booths and tables on one half, and a couple of hibachi grills on the other half. We had sushi that night, which was excellent. Our favorite was the East meet West roll, which features seared filet mignon on top of the sushi roll. They also offer buy 2 get 1 free signature sushi rolls every day from 4-7 pm, which is a great deal. I will be back soon to try the hibachi read more

This is one of the better hibachi restaurants. It's new to the area but seems to have a good following already. We were there on Saturday night January 27. We were seated right away. I think they might be short staffed because service wasn't stellar but it wasn't poor. I think everyone eventually got everything they ordered drink wise. We all thought the food was very good. The mushroom soup was tasty but super salty. Salad is the usual with the yummy ginger dressing. Our party had fillet, steak, chicken and scallops - all very good. Would definitely recommend. read more

Always Great Food and Service!!! Quality Meat and Fish. Excellent Sushi/Sashmi. Our go to..
