    Super expensive and awful. $8 for 6 pieces of this

    Horrible and super expensive. $8 for 6 pieces of sushi with barely any rice. Boyfriend and I got "empires dinner" steak, chicken, and shrimp. This was the plate. We ate the rice and shrimp first. We ate the steak last and the last few pieces of steak we saw, it was raw. It was $29 ish dollars for the entree meal. I was told that the owner couldn't even partially refund us because "it's just one piece". F****ng ridiculous. Total was $60. The owner and place needs to be shut down. Nothing was done and they didn't care. A health inspector needs to shut it down, and they are lucky I don't sue tf out of them.

    Called ahead with an order for take away. I arrived about fifteen minutes later and I was greeted quick and handed my food. Everything was packed up in the bag as expected. I ordered the general chicken and it had no flavor. No heat, just bland it was fresh, with quality ingredients. Maybe the chef was having a bad night. The menu has lots of choices, I will return, but try something different.

    Pad Thai "House" version.

    Highly Recommended: 5-stars. Highly underrated. If you follow our reviews here and on Trip Advisor, you'll know we focus on price-performance at restaurants. Is the price commensurate or equitable, given the quality of the offering? Asiano hits the sweet for our rating criteria and earns our five-star rating.First, selection. Asiano offers an almost to-good-to-be true menu that is so extensive, one wonders at first glance whether puffery is at play. Thai, Chinese, and Japanese dishes are on offer -- on all 8 (yes, you read that right, EIGHT) pages of the menu. Dozens of dishes are on offer and are as eclectic as they are interesting. On top of it all, there's a separate two-page Sushi menu. Second, entrees. We put the menu to the test. We asked our wait staff professional for her recommendations. She recommended the Pad Thai. We ordered the "house" version: it's a variant of four different meats in the flavored Thai Noodle setting. These meats include Chicken, Pork, Beef and Shrimp. It was quite good. It gets a 4 out of 5 on our scale simply because the taste of the beef was a bit off.Then we put the Sushi menu to the test. Again, relying on the recommendation of our wait-professional, we ordered two new rolls on the menu, those typically not rated by regular customers. The first roll was the Bahama-Mama roll: Spicy Conch topped with a thin slice of lemon and hot mayo -- $8. One taste and it disappeared quickly, so quickly that we forgot to snap of photo of it. To the eye it appears as a plain old roll of sticky rice with a few additives. But the taste is zesty, refreshing and fulfilling. 5-Stars hands down for freshness, flavor and uniqueness. Our second roll was the Supra roll: Shrimp Tempura, Creamed Cheese, Avocado, Shredded Crab, and hot Mayo. This time we snapped a photo before vanquishing the roll. You'll note from the photo the shredded crab topping. The mixture of the various flavors teases and excites the taste buds. It's truly spectacular. $15. We note, the prices on rolls span $8 to $18. You don't need to spend on the higher cost rolls to experience the wonderful taste-bud sensations of their Sushi. Based on our sampling, offerings off of this menu are all going to be 5-star. Third, service. It's snappy, as in FAST. Again, our seasoned traveler nature cautioned us to suspect the quality might not be there because it was so fast. But this latter notion is not the case. The owners have a highly efficient and experienced cook staff. In a later conversation with the owner we learned Asiano has been in business for 26-years. The experience is plain for all to see. Fourth, setting. Asiano is set in its own building along the main drag (route 76) of Hiawassee. The sit-down area for Sushi-Pad Thai type customers is segregated from the Hibachi Grill nearby. Doors and a plexiglass-like partition blunt the noise and heat customers would otherwise feel in the main dining area. The Hibachi area consists of two U-shaped settee areas with the chef in the middle. There's plenty of dining space in the non-Hibachi area. There's 10 booths that hold about four adults each and 7-round tables with 5-8 chairs each depending on the size of the table. Asiano enjoys a brisk take-out business. From our limited experience, it is easy to infer why this is the case. This place is very underrated. A 3-star rating is very much undeserved as reported here on Yelp. We have lived for extensive periods in Southeast Asia, specifically, Thailand and Laos, and we know the quality and composition of these dishes. One of the owners is of Thai / Lao extraction. This suggests volumes about the owners insight into the preparation of their offerings.Go and enjoy. We suspect you won't be disappointed.

    Terrible bland food that is overpriced. I guess this is what happens when you don't have much competition in town. So sad.

The restaurant is just beautiful and seating capacity is great--inside and outside. If weather is nice and permitting outside, you get a beautiful view of the mountains. The interior has a full bar and modern-decor. The menu features lots of creative fusion dishes. I enjoyed the avocado salad more than I expected. Maybe it was the ginger lemon dressing. It's light and filling. The ramen bowls are rich and the miso vegetarian Ramen is much more bold, flavorful than I had expected. The carrots and roots were caramelized with a sweetened hint. The ramen bowls are generous in size. I'm bookmarking this place to come back!!! The waitresses gave us several recommendations and her shows through her service and her recommendations of local shops to explore after our dinner.

The vibes in the place are great too. The first night we had Jess. Jess is great - took amazing care of us. We did have a couple issues with the way the food came out. The manager got involved, and I have to say they take excellent care of you here. Excellent enough that despite our issues we came back later in the week. Jess wasn't there, so we got Xander and she also took excellent care of us! We explored some new tastes and sat on the patio, enjoying the view. Definitely a place we will return to, next time we are in Asheville.
