Decided to venture over on this beautiful Saturday. Walked around and we decided to check this place out. It didn't seem too busy when we walked in. We were seated right away. I ordered a Mango Martini and an order of spring rolls to start. For dinner I went with the basil green beans and red peppers and added shrimp to it...my husband ordered the fried basil chicken. After sitting for about 30 mins we noticed other tables that came in after us had received their meals before us. We brought this to our server's attention and she stated our food was coming... When our food arrived it was cold. Like it had been sitting out. We were disappointed...Others when they received their food, servers also offered a variety of sauces to have with their meals but with us there was no checking in or follow up...smh...just cold inedible food...not even the sauce pairings as we saw offered to others... I don't think well venture back here for Thai/Sushi... But hey if you decide to give them a try, I hope you have a better experience than we did. Happy Yelping! read more

This restaurant is located in the Rio, which is a short walk from my sister's place. I stopped by and ordered the gway tiew (pad see eaw), crispy basil duck and the crab wontons to go. While waiting, I sat at the bar and tried the Tokyo iced tea, which was just okay. My sister got the cucumber guava ginger punch, which I preferred. It was quite refreshing. I'll definitely be back to try other drinks. The crab wontons was basic, like your typical crab rangoon. The pad see eaw was delicious. I requested for it to be spicy, which they delivered! The crispy basil duck was also very tasty and flavorful! I'll definitely be returning. read more

The vibe and layout of this restaurant was nice. Our server was friendly and accommodated modifications to our orders. While the drinks were tasty, they were a bit sweeter than I'd expect for a martini. I did feel as if my steak was over cooked and that it was pricier than it should have been for what I received (I ordered the crying tiger). read more

This is a great spot for Asian fusion. I enjoy sitting outside, in an area of Crown that has a grassy barrier between the restaurant and the street. The food and service are both really good. As a vegetarian, there are plenty of options for me. Recommended! read more

I usually avoid fusion places because with fusion spots they usually aren't spectacular in everything and just mediocre in everything. But their sushi surprisingly was so fresh and delicious. Everything else we ordered was average but I'm still thinking about their spicy scallop roll. Also the staff was very friendly. read more

The food is always delicious no matter which dish you order. I had the chicken winds and dumplings. Asia Nine is a great place is conveniently located in downtown crown and the prices are good. They have both indoor or outdoor dining. I pre-order and it was ready for pickup as soon as I got there. It was still hot when I got home. Your immediately greated my the staff at the register and orders are being pick up quickly by the delivery services, Uber or Doordash. read more

Good food, outdoor seating, and service! My friend and I ordered the crab wontons, pad Thai with chicken, and spicy basil with chicken. The wontons were good, but I do wish the sauce was on the side so the skin stayed crispy. The pad Thai was flavorful, and the spicy basil had excellent flavor to it. The prices were a little higher than other Thai restaurants in the area, but I enjoyed the food and service! read more

Pro: outdoor seating, food, clean interior, friendly staff. Con: limited street parking, price. After playing some game at the rio we came here for some dinner. There is not many street parking but luckily there is a garage that offers free parking. The establishment offers outdoor or indoor dining. I had the drunken noodle and California rolls. The noodles were good portion size and tasted good with the spice. The rolls dip in soy sauce made a great combination. Price on the food and drink were a bit high. I had the lemonade and that alone was 5 dollars. All in all, a good Thai restaurant and I would recommend anyone to come and try atleast once. read more

I get take out usually. The front desk staff are friendly. Today I ordered Drunken noodles with chicken takeout. Besides the price being hiked up,maybe the chef has changed . Sauce quantity wasn't the same. Entree was dry tasting. I also tasted a non cooked chicken piece ( chewy/rubbery ) for a small piece of chicken breast. Won't order anymore read more

Server was nice. Very beautiful setting as well. Very festive. I was left extremely disappointed with the quality of the food I ordered. The "Crispy" pork belly was extremely dry. Almost inedible to chew like someone had re fried it pre cooked. I also got the Crab Fried Rice. Presentation had all of the crab meat on the top. It was not fried with the fried rice. To top it off I know canned jumbo lump crab meat when I taste it. Overall for the price and quality of food, I will not be going back unless something in that regard changes. read more

I truly enjoy going to Asia Nine. you get a choice of Japanese and Thai with a fusion of American. When I go here we always like to eat outside. It's has a nice fresh air. See the neighborhood. Vibe. The servers and service was very good. We love to see our usual server, she always greets us with a smile. the hostess also was serving and was attentive to our request 10 out of 10, we ordered a lot of items from the dumplings to the edamame to the shrimp tempera sushi , basil string beans with fried tofu, lamb chops, and combination drunken noodle. All had unique flavors. The lamb chops were cooked perfectly. The sauce was a little sweet. The drunken noodles were not spicy as requested and had a great flavor. The basil, string bean, and fried tofu had a nice heat however, I feel the tofu could fried a little more. we love this restaurant for great local place.must try read more

Surprise surprise, another praise for our experience at Asia 9. Today, however, nothing to do with the food. Watched some jerk in an eagles jersey come whine about placing the wrong order online. I don't really know what happened but he was loud enough to hear across the room, visibly angry, and chewing out the staff while taking pictures of his order. Something about his sushi being cut wrong. He eventually stormed out. The effect on our service? Absolutely none. Same smiles and friendly service; like nothing ever happened. I don't know how they do it. I love this place. read more

I was taking a stroll in my neighborhood when I discovered Asia Nine and as a lover of Thai food, I had to see what it was all about. The inside was dim with your typical Thai restaurant setup. I opted for take out and ordered my safe tried and true, hot Basil leaves level 5 spicy (Thai Spicy). Their pad kapow with chicken was pretty watery for my standards and did not have enough spice and certainly not spicy, it was just okay. I was hoping they would knock it out the park. If I'm ever in a pinch and the restaurant was right next to me, perhaps I'd try something else on the menu but ultimately it's a no for me. read more

I came here for a late lunch and ordered the Yellowtail Sushi Three Ways, which also comes with miso soup. I enjoyed my sushi set; the yellowtail was fresh and the portions were generous. We also ordered the fried bananas as a dessert, which came with matcha ice cream and whipped cream (and a cherry on top). The fried bananas were wrapped in a spring roll wrapper for crunch. No complaints about the food; all dishes were brought out quickly. Service, on the other hand, was minimal. Other than bringing out and refilling drinks, taking our orders, and bringing out the food, they never came to check on us. They also took the liberty of already adding gratuity to the check... and then sneakily make it look like you still need to add tip when signing the bill- so review your check carefully. It was also strange that staff members were hanging out at a back table - some were napping (blanket and all), laying down on the booth seat with their socks and shoes off, or just using their phones. There were no issues with service, it was an off-hour, and these staff members were clearly on a break, but it didn't seem professional. A room divider or curtain would be better to separate the designated employee break area from the dining room. I'm not against coming back here, but I would probably just do carryout next time because the low-key service did not enhance the experience any. read more

We've tried sushi at a few other places in Gaithersburg and Rockville, but we keep coming back to Asia Nine because the fish is just so flavorful and fresh! Every time I step into this restaurant, I always say I'm going to try a different dish, but I never do! I keep ordering the chirashi bowl because it's just that good! Service is always impeccable and the cocktails are delicious! They've got a great selection of sake too. read more

Food is not great, 4/10. Calamari was made out of imitation meat, NO THANK YOU. Pork & shrimp dumplings were OK.

The food and service was amazing. Ambiance was nice too! The only thing that is stopping me from giving 5 stars is the $24 service fee. My ticket was only $91 the service fee made it $115. That couldve been the waiters tip but not once paid they bring a receipt back to sign and ask you to add a tip. That amount of service fee will eventually hurt the pockets of the wait staff, and honestly i would like to know what is a service fee of $24 even for. read more

Best Asian food I have had since leaving the Far East. Outstanding service and very original decors.

I am not sure how they stay in business with their bad customer service. I went in today and the host walked away from me as I was the next person in line. He went to clean tables. I was there for a pick up order. I waited 3-5 min without acknowledgment before I said something. I asked if there was anyone to help me with my order. He acted as if I was bothering him, and he says "you here for pick up right? Pick up? Right?" And I said yes, but you walked away from me without any acknowledgement. Then he goes, "it's coming! She is packing it up!" And walks away again. My order was already packed and waiting in the shelf... I will never ever spend my money at this establishment ever. I wish I could give it a negative rating. read more

Took my wife here for an early Mother's Day Celebration. Asian Nine is a Thai and sushi restaurant. It is located in a town center with mixed shops, restaurants, and townhomes/condos. There is ample free street parking as well as public parking garages nearby. It is tastefully decorated in modern asian decor. We had their popular crispy basil with chicken along with the sushi boat. The crispy basil chicken has spicy sweet tangy flavor. It is one of our favorite dishes on the menu. The sushi boat comes with a variety of sushi and sashimi. Everything was fresh and delicious. The wait staff is friendly and helpful. read more

Thai fried rice with pork, the pork is $6 addon they give you 10 slices of pork belly which I would say is astronaut pork belly. It's dry dry dry. This was pre cooked belly and re fried again. Not even edible it's so hard. For what seems like an upsacle asian fusion restaurant the only thing upscale here are prices. You can get this quality from Chinese take. If I could give 0 I would. No animal deserves to die twice... This pork died 3 times. read more

This is a good spot for Asian food. The shrimp tempura roll I had was really good. It was larger and more interesting than shrimp tempura rolls I've had elsewhere.

The waitress was friendly and helpful and I had a good experience here overall. read more

I always order their seafood pad Thai which is great. This one time I ordered the calamari as an appetizer, which I was disappointed with. Their dumplings were good and I'd order them again. Their lychee and coconut drink was really good. They were really busy on a Friday evening and their service could have been faster, but food was overall good. read more

Final update: In the end, I contacted this restaurant 10+ times, went to the doctor three times to get them all requested documentation showing that I indeed had food poisoning, and was told numerous times that management would be getting back to me but no one ever called me back. They really don't care. Based on my experience, I actively tell people to avoid this restaurant. Don't support business who treat customers this way. read more

Food, Service and ambiance are great! We love to eat here when we're craving Thai food

Enjoyed a fabulous dinner out with my best friend last night. To start we enjoyed green tea and Jasmine tea along with delicious vegetable spring rolls that were perfectly filled and tasty with mild sweet and sour sauce. The calamari rings were delicious as well. Light and crispy on the outside. This restaurant serves delicious, VERY spicy crispy basil chicken. The basil was fragrant and delicious, and chicken was so light and crispy. Steamed rice was the perfect accompaniment. My friend's sizzling beef dish was served with a flame and piping hot. So flavorful and tender. The sauce was perfectly seasoned and not spicy. read more

The drinks are also great. read more

I will be back! When you first walk in, you are warmly greeted by the hostess. The restaurant is bright and cozy. The decorations are an eye catcher! We were seated and were helped at a timely manner. We started off with some cocktails. All of their cocktails looked delicious!! I wish I could've tried a few! We got the coco island and one night in Bangkok. The coco island is very similar to a piña colada, so it was very sweet, milky, and had a hint of orange . The one night in Bangkok was my favorite! The drink was sweet and refreshing. For apps, we got the calamari, shrimp shumai, and yellowtail( toro) nigiri. The calamari was not the best. The breading was a tad bit bland and the actual squid wasn't very flavorful. It had a bit of an after taste. I don't recommend this, if I am going to be honest. The shumai was good, nothing too special. I did enjoy it. It was pretty standard in terms of flavor, but a solid 6.5/10. Finally, the nigiri. I was surprised by how fresh it was. I usually do not get nigiri or sushi from restaurants that do not specialize in it, but I was craving yellowtail toro. The fish was fatty, fresh, and was a prefect size. 10/10 Moving on to the main dishes, we got the pad Thai and Thai spicy fried rice. OUT OF THIS WORLD!! The pad Thai was full of flavor and the shrimp was fresh. 9/10. The star of the whole show was definitely the Thai spicy fried rice. Usually when I try "spicy" foods at restaurants, it's never that spicy, but this was SPICY, in the best way possible. 10/10. They had a wide variety of foods on their menu. This place definitely could be a 5 star, I just haven't had the chance to try other choices. Hopefully the next time I go, I can find better options. read more

I started the evening going to Uncle Julio's in Rio. The wait line was too long. I didn't feel like waiting. So, I went to Crown Park. Walked around and discovered Asia Nine. I thought it's been a while since I had Thai food. I gave it a try. I walked in and waited at least 10 minutes to be recognized by the hostess to seat me. I understood she was helping a diner in front of me. I believe she was paying for her carry out. By the way the hostess never smiled during my entire time at the restaurant (approximately 1 and a half hours). I asked to be seated at the bar. There were plenty of empty seats but she sat me in a high top table. I didn't want the bartender to get out of the bar to take my order. C'est la vie. The bartender came over shortly and took my order. Hibiscus lemonade and three flavor tilapia. The drink came within minutes. The entree took 43 minutes. The bartender explained that they were swamped. 100 customers came in at once. I think a bit of exaggeration. The restaurant in my opinion couldn't accommodate 100 diners. I noticed several diners who came after me had drinks, appetizers, and entrees served before I had my dinner was served. So, not sure how to justify "we were slammed" The hibiscus lemonade was okay. A bit too sweet for me. The three flavor tilapia was nothing to brag about. Oh, it was under Chef's Specialties. I was trying to figure out the three flavored. Sweet, chili, and basil, I guess. Typically, sweet chili is considered one flavor profile. There were two fairly large sized tilapias with crunchy breading and deep fried. The tilapia itself was bland. Really needed the flavoring from the sweet chili basil sauce. The restaurant looked modern. Slick. There were plenty of servers. Two sushi chefs. I should have ordered the sushi. It wouldn't taken so long. Might have tasted better. read more

First time there, First impression was not good. Although the place was pretty clean spacious and beautiful atmosphere I wouldn't care less fo come back.. We got there and waited for about 10 minutes without anybody recognized us and there was no greetings, then we were seated without menus for another 10 to 15 minutes, the restaurant was empty we were the only ones there.. Then server was just ok, she didn't seem to put her best into the service.. It took her a while to seat us, bring us the menu and come back for the orders. From my experience eating outside I would consider this place a mediocre at best. The menu was full of giod options and pretty extensive. The food was good a little to the salty side for us.. They added gratuity without telling us which something I don't mind but at least mention it and don't try scam people.. We will not come back.. read more
