This was another excellent choice a wahtbachiice ... plus we went they had wrestling and Caroke

Their food seems catered to the non-Asian crowd. Interesting space, with maybe a dance floor in the middle? Extensive menu with Chinese, Malaysian, Thai, and sushi selections. Owners were not very friendly. Menu prices have a column for cash vs credit card. Lunch is $10.38 incl. soup (egg drop, mushroom, hot & sour, Tom Yum). The hot & sour soup was very good - the Tom Yum had no content and just tasted vinegary with a kick. EEL ROLL - $9.34 for 8 pcs. Tasted ok ... barely any eel. BLACK PEPPER STEAK - $10.38 (lunch) Expected a sizzling flavor but nada. Meat quality not good. Boring dish. And the lunch special came w/ so much fried rice (vs entree). SZECHUAN EGGPLANT - $10.38 (lunch) Should've known better this wasn't the sauteed garlic eggplant I was used to when seeing so many different veggies listed in the menu. The dish looked just like our Black Pepper Steak. The eggplant was just very thin pieces. Not spicy either. FYI they're located near the Best Buy and Lowe's. We won't be back. read more

First the food. It was amazing!! We've eaten there several times and everything has been great. Delicious sushi and a variety of perfectly prepared Asian dishes. Decent service too. BUT, in these times businesses really need to keep their personal politics out. My husband and I do not patronize businesses that have FOX News on their televisions. Sadly, our principles mean we won't be back despite the good food. read more

I love Asian food but this place is the pits! I have been here 3 times now with friends who wanted to try it. Terrible! I have never had a good meal here. My bottom line....save your money and go elsewhere. The staff are not even friendly! read more

food was cold and disgusting. the pork egg roll was burnt had no taste. the best part was the egg drop soup. the service was slow because only 1 server who was completely uninterested in her duties. the restaurant was remodeled to serve hibachi so it being lunch was empty. read more

The menu was big so i had to take time to order, the wait time wasn't long but the food did not taste fresh and the ambiance was just a bit off. read more

Asia Cafe has amazing food and the staff is fantastic! The location is central to all the shopping off Kingston Pike. They have a variety of Asian foods from Chinese to Japanese, Vietnamese, and Thai. The prices are also great. We love their Pho Ga and Bun Bo Hue as they are consistent and so yummy! Hidden gem in Knoxville!! They also have live music and karaoke read more

The food and service were good even though I got there close to closing time. Good size portion

Food was mediocre was not fresh, people were super nice and welcoming but food was mid.

Ordered Gen Tso chicken and a cashew entree. Both looked good, but served little more than room temp. Couldn't find cashews in one and zero spice in Gen Tso chicken. Looked like avg Sysco products because very few customers and serving impossibly fast. Ordered a meltdown dessert with ice cream. Waitess first feigned ignorance when served with no ice cream, then changed up to out of ice cream. No price adjust or substitution. Restaurant has dual pricing (credit card vs cash) which I have no issue with, until I was charged credit card pricing when I used a gift card that carries NO surcharges. Poor product at premium prices. Dragon Den on Kingston Pk SO MUCH BETTER. read more

I gave this restaurant one last try and it is still without a doubt the worst Asian food I have ever had. Crispy shrimp sushi was soggy inside and lacked flavor. They evidently do not know how to make Penang Curry. It was very watery with overcooked vegetables. The sauce should have been thick like gravy. It tasted like Middle Eastern yellow curry. The mushroom soup, usually delicious in other restaurant, was very disappointing as it was mostly water with no taste whatsoever. I can't believe this place is still in business. I will never go back! read more

The food is amazing. The service is outstanding. The environment is appealing & pleasant.

So i showed up one late night, and Karaoke night was going on. There was this guy in purple, and he was getting it dirty dancing down. He sang an Alexander Hamilton song from the play. He was having fun, and so was I listening, but Hamilton died twice that night. We ordered a chicken and crab hibachi, steak and chicken hibachi, red snapper hibachi, chicken bento box, and tempura banana. It was all delicious. Come for the food but stay for the show.

Absolutely amazing food it comes out in great time. The service was great my server was so nice and she was very thoughtful in asking if we needed anything! The live music on Thursday night was absolutely outstanding I'm very pleased with they're selection on artist/ band every Thursday night it's great I love this restaurant and would recommend to absolutely anyone, even if you're just getting takeout!!! read more

This Asia Cafe has taken over the old Taste of Thai location near the Best Buy and Lowe's. The interior has been mildly renovated and the patio has been cleaned and is being used for outdoor dining and entertainment. The staff is incredibly friendly. We went on a Thursday evening and it was mostly empty. They had a live band playing outside, but because the patio is unprotected from the sun, there was no way I was going to spend any time out there. They would benefit IMMENSELY from putting some shade out there. I ordered the steak and shrimp combo hibachi and my wife ordered the massaman curry. Everything was out at the table in a very short time. My hibachi came with a soup and my wife ordered a soup for herself. I'll start with the good: the hibachi was excellent. I was a little surprised as I was expecting beef chunks, but what I got was more along the lines of a sliced beef. I would have been disappointed, but the beef was seared and slightly crispy and tasted wonderful. The shrimp were some of the best seasoned I have had in a hibachi meal. The veggies were plentiful and properly cooked and the rice was also good. My only gripe is that I prefer a more rare meat preparation, and there's no way to get a nice tender rare on these strips. Overall, I would still get it again. I opted for the egg drop soup and was pleased with it. My wife ordered a hot and sour soup and said it was one of the best she's ever had. Now to the meh part. My wife's massaman curry was ordered with chicken and came out with tofu... yuck! The server promptly replaced it and it was back at the table within minutes. When my wife originally ordered it, she was told it defaulted to a "1" spice and she asked for "1-1/2" spice because usually she can handle a little more than "1" spice. When it first came out (before she realized it was tofu) it was definitely hotter than "1-1/2", even I thought it was spicer than she ordered it. So when the plate was sent back. She asked for the "1" spice. We both agreed that people would consider it a "2" spice. Anyway, the massaman curry base wasn't what you typically get with a massaman curry (it was immediately obvious by the color alone). Usually, you expect the base to be sweeter and have more coconut milk. This was not that. I would have called this a yellow curry rather than massaman, but with massaman veggies instead of yellow veggies. It had a very floral fragrance and taste, definitely not what she wanted. She didn't really like it, I didn't really like it, and she said she wouldn't order it again and I would agree. All told, it's clear that this location is still getting into its stride. They had a pretty good looking cocktail program including smoked drinks which we saw a lot being sold. The prices are actually fairly reasonable considering the large portions. We will definitely be going back (but not for the curry), maybe also visit their other location that has the table-side hibachi experience that this location does not have. Their patio also is in desperate need of solar control, the poor fella performing was obviously sweating, and uncomfortable with the sun directly in his eyes, so indoor seating only until the sun goes down. read more

I enjoy eating their food. Usually order carryout but we do eat in sometimes. The soups are always tasty and not too salty. My wife loves the fried rice and lo mein dishes, not the chicken though. I love the String beans with ground pork. I am also stuck on the House Seafood combination with mixed vegetables. They have many options and eventually I will have eaten them all, (hopefully). Sometimes they can get real busy so be patient and you will be glad you did. read more

This place surprised me a bit. First, I'd like to make certain, but their logo out front looks exactly like a fast-food chain (I Know there are 2 branches in Alcoa-Maryville) that is not bad, but has a much more limited menu and very little ambience/decor. This place also lacks muchy in the decor department, but the menu is HUGE and from our sampling (six of us all trying various things), everthing was prety solid. My wife and I both had Malaysian dishes. Mine was a bit too much like roast beef with gravy; wish I had asked for spicier. She said the shrimp and squid in hers were both good. Others had pho, sushi, Thai and Chinese dishes. All six folks know their Asian food and all said it was decent, at least. They have a huge selection of beers, both canned and draft. Many other drinks and I suppose it had to be full bar, although I did not look. The decor is plain. Service was adequate but of the variety of "what you want? Number 2 ok." read more

Great dinner. Many options, quality food, and excellent service. We had a hodgepodge of Asian cuisine. Definitely a good place for foodies or large groups seeking lots of options. read more

I have been here a number of times. The servers we have had are sweet and amazing going above and beyond. The food has been amazing too and I have tried a number of items. Have made it a regular spot to eat. read more

Food came out randomly the whole night. After everyone getting their dinners at random times throughout the night they went ahead and added a gratuity of 18% to the check just in case we were mad. read more

Good service and I love the location in Powell. We have been to this one twice and the food is not as good. Went last night and the food was so salty we couldn't finish it. read more

We were back for a second time and everything was amazing again! So much food for a great price and it is really so delicious. I can't brag enough. Our waitress, Simone, was super sweet and helpful yet again. This is definitely a favorite in our house now and I can't wait to try more of their menu! read more

The food was good. My problem was when I got the bill, they had automatically added 10% if you're not paying in cash. Credit card companies charge the merchant 2.75ish% fee, so the restaurant is making money on you there too. I feel this is bad business conduct considering today's economy. read more

We ordered fried tofu with satay. The satay sauce was SO sweet, we had to mix in at least 2 tablespoons of soy sauce to make it edible. I had the pad thai, which was no way near what I've come to know as pad thai. This was rice noodles (right) with this thick, gloppy, sweet and sour sauce all over it. The lime you're supposed to squeeze over it was as dry as a rock. My partner got sushi which, he said, was "ok," so I'll give it two stars for getting SOMETHING right. We won't be going back there, I don't think. If they can't do a simple satay or pad thai.... Well, they're not much of an Asian restaurant, fusion or no. read more

Service was friendly but the food was terrible. I ordered the chicken broccoli lunch special and my husband ordered the sweet and sour chicken. read more

Was pretty good, Drunken Noodles were delicious (big portions)! spicy Tuna Roll, eh, was a funky tuna paste. I'll be back to try some more lunch items read more

Had the worst experience here and would not recommend this place to anyone. The service was horrible and the prices are not accurate. They charge additional fees if you pay with card and already included an 18% gratuity onto the bill when there were only 3 of us. When asked why those charges were added onto our bill, they stated that it is all automated through their system. Very unhappy with our visit as we have been to many other Asia Cafes and loved them! read more

0 stars. We went Christmas Day 2023 & saw 3 cockroaches in the span on 45 minutes. 1 on the table behind us, while a family was eating, one on our table & one on the floor. Food was not that great. We will not eat here again. read more

Service and food was amazing! One of the waitresses works at the Asia Kitchen on Kingston Pike and she's always wonderful. The bathrooms were very clean and so was the dining area. Very open and the atmosphere was quiet and inviting. This is the first time I have ate here since Taste of Thailand closed. We will be back for sure! read more

Prices on menu are not the prices they charge on your bill. They are only if you pay in cash. They tack on more when they bring the bill. $4 for a soda is ridiculous. Food is pretty ok. Service depends on who your waiter or waitress is. Our waitress couldn't be bothered with us. Another waiter stepped in and he was much better. read more

The owner is great. You may can speak to him. This is a location. The food is great, the prices are great.

Service was fine, food was not good. No flavor. Nothing special for Asian. Won't be going back.

On 02/29/2024 I visited the Asia café out west. I used to go to the one off Callahan, but the sushi had gotten so horrible, I'd given up on that location completely! I decided I'd try Asia Café out west bad idea! Only thing decent was the egg drop soup! So I ordered egg drop soup and scallops and shrimp with garlic sauce. after I had started chewing the first scallop, I knew the scallops were bad and if I would've swallowed that piece, I would've been really sick! It tasted like that batch of scallops went bad, but they had money invested, so they decided to serve them anyway! it was such a long day and I was so tired and hungry that I picked all the scallops out and attempted to eat what I could. If I wouldn't I've been so hungry I wouldn't of ate any of it because the shrimp tasted off as well. And the vegetables were way undercooked, and there was almost no taste to it at all but it's not just this location it's Asia café as a whole when they first came out they were pretty good, but they have went downhill since so much so that you shouldn't even waste your money because you're gonna be disappointed with any dish you order. Don't waste your time. read more
