You can call it beef over all... I take an offense when sitting side by side in a Restaurant where the person that is white sit for a while after reading his news paper has to ask for his check indicating that he desires to leave and would like to pay his bill... Juxtapose a black man in New York sitting in a restaurant finishings his meal enjoy desert with the check is under the coffee saucer ... For years this has been administer.... Not only to me but to many black people at many chains ... This needs to stop ....after all I am a paying customer and I deserve the same rights to relax after all that's part of the whole rest rest and tolerance read more

Wow what a great restaurant, cozy inside but the food is delicious, Japanese Pizza amazing, Malaysian udon excellent

I stick pretty much to the sushi at Asea as the couple times I've ventured into the other dishes I have not been terribly impressed and they are a bit overpriced (especially for the hood). But the sushi is a great deal, including a fantastic lunch special, and we find ourselves indulging by trudging down the few blocks here on a pretty regular basis. Great place to watch games too, by the way, in the back bar area. I pretty much spent an entire month here last summer during the world cup, and the staff are great. Very little beer selection, which I guess I shouldnt be too surprised about at an Asian restaurant in Sunset Park, but.. then I'd probably never leave. Oh, and the flavored teas are fantastic! read more

their food is great - that they send their cronies out every couple weeks to decorate the entirety of park slope with their menu is HORRIBLE. Asea mgmt - it is... 2014. we have, the internet. cut it out with the menu drop - we all know you're there. read more

Came here with my cousins on a Sunday night! Very unique spot in sunset park area. Great experience, the ambiance is also exceptional. appetizer dish - The Japanese pizza is impeccable, it is made with thin slice of eel on some sort of pancake crunchy surface with unagi sauce on the top. Good price and staffs were friendly..... read more

Fantastic, this place is so good, indoors decorations are nice, and i love the sushi and oyster, yumi fresh, not that much restaurants like this one on 8th Ave read more

Very tasty food, and great service. Love the recommendations by the waitress, May. Volcano rolls is my new fav!

Maybe I just didn't get the right dish but I wasn't particularly impressed with the malaysian seafood curry. The service was excellent though and a friend vouches for it. If I'm back I'll try the sushi and see how it goes. read more

Ordered a bunch of different rolls. Definitely serviceable sushi i just had better. I think dining in would be a better option.

The roll are ok, when you ask for spicy mayo, they charge you 0.50c. +tax for each of them, that's ridiculous

Been coming here for a while, I always get the same things though. The king crab roll is my favorite and their grilled squid! Good food and good vibes! read more

This place has gone downhill. I used to get sushi delivered to my job and it's decent. Better when I instruct them with add-on's. But today, some rolls were better than others; spicy salmon was very good, spicy crabmeat was okay (it needed more Japanese mayo), and the chicken tempura roll was dry and disappointing. But my biggest disappointment was the shrimp tempura lunch bento box. It came with 2 pieces of shrimp, 2 pc of yam, 1 pc of taro and 1 pc of zucchini tempura. The rice was dry and hard, like old rice. It also came with 3 pieces of fried frozen shumai. I wish they wouldn't fry these. For $9, this bento box didn't seem worth it. At other restaurants, it usually comes with 4 pc California roll, but they only offered a side salad or miso soup. I felt like throwing my cold fried shumai's in the garbage. read more

Oh my god, this was the best sushi I think I've ever had. If I lived in new York I would eat here on a weekly occasion.

Cool bar with 3 high def big screen tv's! Atmosphere is great. Clean and updated decor. Most importantly the Raman is BOMB! As good as Ippudo. I can't wait to go back. read more

When we walked in,the first things to strike us was the amazing of the decorate,clear environment, I pledged this is only deluxe restaurant on 8th ave. The second thing we have to said service is great as well.one of the waitress (May),took order for us ,she is so sweetie,she always walked around customer whoever need help.my parents was praise of May,they said,this girl will be accomplish in her future,look at her smiling expression was made people feel comfy, even listen to her said any word,how can this young of girl spoke like senior? I just want to let everyone know who come aseafusion must be require May for service.she is really patient and organization.this amazing place must be have such service. we had some alcohol,sushi and some food from kitchen, evey thing was fresh and delicious,except of one soup ,that is a little bit salty, this might need to improve.. However,we have fun in aseafusion,we will be back soon. we're so glad to this place opened. read more

I'm a foodie and i love to try new places around the neighborhood. This place have been open for a while, but i only discovered it now. I actually liked it alot. Came here with my friend, we tried some appetizers: awesomeness, except the soup in the big bowl - we didnt like that at all. They served us free sake for checking in. YAY! :) CHEERS. read more

nice place. good ambience. decent prices. mediocre food. good portions. advice to the restaurant: please dont mix too much water in the soy sauce. i find it very disappointing and it didn't mix well with my sashimi. i needed that soy sauce to be strong enough to make it edible. i know restaurants add water. fine. dont get too stingy please. you're spoiling the whole meal. thank you. read more

This place is good if you dine in. Every time Ive ordered delivery it's been sub par at best. I also think they put water in their soy sauce. read more

Was there for dinner last night with a groups of friends. Waiters were very friendly and accommodating. The sushi is very fresh and price is pretty reasonable. Malaysian curries were very well spiced and their pineapple fried rice is just too awesome. Will definitely recommend this place if you are in the area. read more

I went with a group of 7 around 8pm on a Sunday and we were seated right away. The restaurant decor is modern and clean which is a plus, especially since they're serving raw fish. We immediately start looking at the menu and noticed a decent selection of sushi, Thai and Malaysian dishes. For appetizers, we order calamari bowl and coconut tiger shrimp. Then we order other dishes to share which includes salmon lover, sashimi platter, kamikaze roll, sexy roll, mussels, lambs, chicken pad thai and seafood udon. After everything is served, our group was still hungry! The food is pretty good but the problem is all the portions are quite small, especially the appetizers. We went ahead and ordered two more noodle dishes so we don't leave the restaurant with our stomach still growling. The bill came out to approximately $31 per person so it wasn't bad but the fact that we ate mostly noodles to fill us up did not justify for what we paid. read more

See all

I second what the other Yelpers are noting. The delivery man is a bit rude about his own mistake- mistakenly calling my phone rather than ringing the bell. However, the food (Chicken Katsu) is something I eat once a month as their lunch deal cannot be beat! I will still continue ordering from here because their food is reliably delicious and gives me my fill of Asian food. read more

The sushi was okay but there are definitely cheaper and better options in brooklyn. Some of the rolls didn't hold up and fell apart and didn't have much of a flavor. Had the bacon scallop and chicken skin yakitori which were pretty decent. I would return to try more of the yakitori since they're fairly priced. Honestly the menu is too big for its own good, they should just get rid of the mediocre offerings. Their tap water was disgusting- did not taste like ny tap and we could taste it in the hot tea as well. The service was extremely slow. Waited like a hr just for 2 rolls. Friends' omakase was wrongly described (way smaller portion than informed). Waitress was apologetic but offered no solution. Seems like there's still a lot of kinks that needs to be worked out. read more

This will be my new go to place for Malaysian Seafood Curry Noodle Soup Ramen. I've tried the really traditional one at Wok Wok in chinatown where they put 2 kinds of noodles in the soup and although the soup base was superb, i found it a bit weird to eat two different noodle textures at the same time (i think it was rice noodle with chewy lo mein style noodle). But when i tried this version at Asea, I fell in love. It was ramen style and imo fit the soup base really well. Soup had very strong traditional laksa flavor - a bit on spicy side for me, but im sure spicy lovers will like it. I also would have preferred the eggs to be soft-boiled rather than hard-boiled, but its all good. THE BEST PART is that they're really accommodating. For health reasons i cant have seafood, so on my online order i asked for beef substitution. Usually when i order online and make requests, the restaurant usually calls me to say no they cant do it all all, or they can only do it for more money (for inconveniencing them?!?! what in the world). But Asea just did it for me, no questions asked (i suppose beef is cheaper than shrimp and calamari anyways?). After seeing how good this is, Im dieing to try their other noodle soups! Their roti is greaaaaat also!! Like they're Asian sushi fusion, but they make really damn good Malaysian food! read more

Food was superb, staff was super friendly and we got our food fast with presentable playing I love it and I would recommend this place to anyone read more

You cannot find a decent sushi place in 8th avenue but Asea is excellent. The food comes out in a timely manner and the waiter is really friendly. There french fries and rock shrimp is so good!! Asea is the way to go. read more

Solida Asian fusion joint in Sunset Park on the north end of the 8th Ave Chinatown strip. I remember the fish (I had the Salmon Lover) being fresh. Prices are not Chinatown cheap, but your server here will actually smile at you. JK... this is a pretty trendy spot in what is a neighborhood filled with authentic, hole-in-the-wall type restaurants. I would come back for sushi and other "Asian fusion." read more

Called it! Lunch special is great! $10.50 for three rolls and a soup or salad. The rolls are nothing special, but a very solid place for lunch! I haven't been brave enough to actually get the sushi or sashimi, but I have little incentive to get something other than the rolls. read more

We came here on a Christmas night, and there was a lot of people there, all the tables were full. As a result, our food came rather slowly as I imagined the kitchen must have been swamped with food orders. Our server was a guy wearing a Santa hat (well they all were wearing Santa hats for the night), and he didn't speak much Cantonese, despite the restaurant being located close to the Brooklyn Chinatown. All the menus were in English, although I seem to recall they used to have bilingual menus when I came here the first time. The tea we were given was a bit funky tasting, a little bitter and not the usual flavor I would have expected in tea, but it didn't seem to be bad for my stomach, so I drank most of it. The waiters did not come back to refill our tea cups until almost the end of the meal though. I ordered a Thai iced tea, and it was decent, although it had a strange taste to it as well, stronger than the Thai iced teas I have had before elsewhere, but it wasn't all too unpleasant to drink. For our appetizers, we ordered the popcorn chicken, the wallop fries, and the Japanese pizza. The popcorn chicken was nothing special, just tasted of normal fried chicken, and it did not come with a dipping sauce, which could have made it taste great. The wallop fries were not impressive on first taste, and it came with a wasabi mayo sauce that I was not a fan of, as I don't like mayonnaise. However, after eating the Japanese pizza, the fries seemed to taste better and had a slightly spicy taste to them which was pleasant. The Japanese pizza was disappointing as it came cold and it wasn't particularly flavorful this visit. I had it before on my first time here, and it was really good that time -- sort of like a flat Takoyaki, with really great sauce. However, on this visit, the sauce wasn't really there, they only drizzled a little bit on each one (there were four of them) and it couldn't be detected. After the appetizers, we waited a long time for the next round of food. As an apology, the waiter came back with a free plate of seaweed salad for us to munch on while we waited. I wasn't a fan of it as it only tasted of oily seaweed strips, but my mom quite liked it. For entrees, we ordered the chicken rendang, seafood pineapple rice, a spicy seafood ramen, and the Malaysian stir-fried noodle that I couldn't remember the name of. The chicken rendang dish was one of the most disappointing dishes of the night, the chicken was tough and the curry was nonexistent, it was just barely there to cover the pieces of dry chicken. I would definitely not order that again. The seafood pineapple rice came in a real pineapple and it was great, extremely flavorful, although the pineapple chunks were a little sour for my liking. When mixed with the chicken rendang, the chicken became more tolerable to eat, I guess, so it saved the other dish. The most delicious dish was the Malaysian stir-fried noodle, which although it wasn't spicy, was extremely flavorful and I think I could have eaten the whole plate if I weren't stuffed from all the other food that had come out earlier. It tasted better than the Pad Thai I have had here, and I would definitely order this noodle again when I revisit. The seafood ramen came in a really big bowl, and it must have been good, as my cousin ate the whole bowl in one sitting and finished it all without sharing it! Overall, this place serves great food and I would definitely come back again in the future. The service is on the slower side though, even when there aren't many people (on my first visit, we were the only ones in the restaurant besides one other table). The waiters aren't the most attentive either, and most of them don't speak Cantonese fluently, but their English is fine. read more

My husband and I were headed home after a long walk with our dog. We were hungry, but weren't craving the standard 8th avenue fare - Chinese or Vietnamese. As we mulled it over, I saw a red sign in the distance that said, "Sushi." Salvation! Sushi (cooked, of course) has been THE food that I've craved the most thus far in my pregnancy so off we went. I was pleasantly surprised by the decor and ambiance - very trendy. However, I didn't look very impressive with my little belly in a white tank, shorts, and sneakers. I was also very sweaty. Perhaps that's why I wasn't greeted with a smile from anyone. Oh, well. I ordered my three-roll lunch special and the wait was a mere 6-7 minutes. Who cares if no one smiled at me?! The food is very standard; nothing special at all. The miso soup tastes much like the soup I've had everywhere - it could be from a mix for all I know. The rolls were a nice size - not generous, but not stingy either. I got the avocado, eel avocado, and spicy shrimp. My husband liked the spicy shrimp very much and I enjoyed the rest. Not bad. We'll definitely be back when I get the itch again. Would I go out of my way to come here? Not a chance. I do appreciate that's its in the neighborhood and cheap. read more

The food here is very good. Had a bento box lunch special, and some sushi (chirashi). They messed up.my roll order but gave me a free squid-seaweed salad. Very fresh fish. Very nice ambience compared to surrounding places. I can't wait to try their Malaysian dishes....okay, tried them. Excellent. read more

I just ordered delivery and from this place for the first time and I have to say that not only was the delivery prompt but the food was tasty. I ordered their tuna sashimi, beef stick and a salmon cucumber roll. All yummy, fresh and satisfying. Well done Asea! read more

I love the lunch sets from here and the delivery man is very nice. Their sushi is alright and it is worth it with their lunch sets. Teriyaki and Katsu is also very good. Their pad Thai, soba noodle, and udon is also very good. The noodle soups are full of vegetables and other goodies, the broth is not too overpowering also. Love this place. read more

I found hair in my food and couldn't eat it afterwards. I ordered takeout from them and they forgot the main sauce that was suppose to be on the chicken. The hibachi chicken and pad Thai was tasteless. The Godzilla sushi was missing it's cream cheese and had mozzarella like sauce in the middle which didn't mix in well in the sushi. The only things that was good was the hibachi side noodles and fried cheesecake. I have never written a bad review but the takeout service and the food was really bad. read more

A cute and pretty decent spot at the very faaarrr end of the Asian-Chinese 8th Avenue. I had previously heard about this place from friends and when there was a Groupon deal offered, I bought it and decided to have a dinner date with one of my friends. It was a first experience here for both my friend and I. First, let's talk about the Groupon, it offered 2 beers/wines, 2 special rolls and a ramen/noodle/udon, etc. I forgot the price I paid for this Groupon though. I felt that they were accommodating to our request of the Groupon cuz we did not want to drink beer/wine so we each ordered one of the regular drinks on the menu. They offered a wide range of drinks, from smoothie to slushies to bubble teas and some regular drinks. If you see the drink menu has such a big variety, that would mean that the food menu would be a huge variety too, and you're right! There's a variety of different dishes on the menu. All the food sounded so appetizing! My friend and I ordered a sushi pizza as a starter then 2 special rolls, which were all very delicious and unique. The stir-fried udon we ordered to share was good portion and well-sauced! Definitely a good amount of food to try. I would like to come back in the future. The only downside would be that it is rather far from the main 8th Avenue area, and if you're walking, it's a work out for your legs! If you're lucky enough to catch the bus, that'd be great too. This is a good restaurant though. Casual decor which also gives a classy-nice vibe to it as well. read more

I'd say stick to entrées if you want your order to arrive warm. Otherwise stick to going there yourself.

I've ordered a couple times since my last review and both times the delivery guy has been a nice, older man. Very friendly! And the food is still great! read more

Nice atmosphere and good value. 2 of our 3 lunch dishes were very good (lemongrass chicken and basil chicken), one just okay (curry chicken). Service was prompt. Free sake upon Yelp check-in was a nice bonus! read more

The service here is great; I always come here for lunch/dinner and the waiters always greet me with a lenient attitude and when I am confused with certain items on the menu, they would explain to me what they are consisted of which is a big plus. I always come here for their Malaysian udon noodles because they make the best udon noodle on 8ave and their desserts like the crepe cake tasted very good as well. However, their sushi doesn't taste as good as the sushi from 86st; although their materials are very fresh majority of the time, their sushi just doesn't taste as good as other places and they don't have spicy mayo which is a big minus for a spicy mayo lover :,( anyways, this place is worth it's price with wonderful service and fresh materials. read more

This place is DELICIOUS!! You can't go wrong with their dancing lobster roll. You won't be disappointed. I highly recommend it and it's pretty affordable. read more

I love Asea. This is my go to spot whenever i want sushi or when I cant decide what I want to eat. Ive had their sushi, rock shrimp, hibachi, singapore rice noodles, miso soup - nothing has disappointed me yet. If its your first time coming here for sushi get the Asea roll its the best. read more
