Came here with a group of friends to launch my dinner club and it was a great experience. The restaurant itself is a cute vibe, with space upstairs as well. I sat at the bar while waiting for everyone to arrive and the bartender was super friendly. Loved my cocktail, and my friends did too. We ordered family style just so that we could try a little of everything. Some favorites were the lobster fried rice which was so flavorful and just a 10/10. I would order that again every time. We also enjoyed their octopus, wings, shishito peppers, and the oxtail dumplings. The steak and the tempura shrimp were also delicious. I'll be coming back for sure. read more

We came on a Saturday night. It's a large restaurant with two floors. Prices are high and it's Asian fusion. It seems popular for a date night but there were also families. The music was a bit loud. Decor is nice and there's modern art. Overall the service and food were solid. The shishito peppers and crispy cauliflower were flavorful and tangy. The grilled Amish chicken came on a bed of mash and pea shoots. It was well-cooked. They have a large selection of cocktails. read more

Randomly found this spot and ordered the chopped Thai salad, malpeque oysters, Chinese bbq pork ribs, flaming spicy tuna crispy rice, and bone in ribeye teriyaki. All of the food was delicious and beautifully presented. Wish the portions were bigger, considering the price, but we shared this food amongst 3 people and we were all full. Service was attentive and our waitress was super nice and knowledgeable about the dinner and drinks menu. She also recommended an amazing desert and did something special for my friend's birthday. The ambiance is super cool, love the decor and overall vibe. read more

Vibes were vibing on my first night trying this restaurant. I love the atmosphere here, the music and the design. Super cool! The staff was very nice and made some great suggestions on food and even surprised me with a fun birthday dessert (complete with a bubble gun lol). Now the real star here is the food. WOW. I love asian dishes and these blew me away. The tuna crispy rice was phenomenal. Sometimes I can't enjoy them when the tuna to crispy rice ratio is off but theirs was perfect! Also the udon noodles - 10/10. My husband loved his sushi as well. He says the flavors were great and the fish tasted so fresh. When I come back to visit NYC, I will definitely head back to ASSET. read more

So the vibes are pretty great at this place and the apps are tasty. That's where it stops. I highly recommend the wings. Super tasty and saucy. I also recommend the orange wine as it's nicely balanced on the dry side rather than too sweet. The shrimp dumplings were decent but needed more sauce to accompany it. The main dishes seemed to have gone from a Asian forward place to a more American grill kind of entree. The flavors were too subdued and borderline bland. The cook overall was great but the execution and flavors were just not hitting the right notes. Would be back for maybe drinks and a bite or two but not for any one that prefers punchy flavors for their meal. Overall service was attentive but lacking towards the end of the meal. read more

We went in with high expectations given the buzz around this place however we were pretty disappointed over the course of the meal. Most of the food tasted like it had been heated from frozen and was cold when it came out. The crispy rice was anything but - although the flavors were nice, the rice was pretty soggy and cold, definitely not fresh. The orange chicken we got was pretty inedible and went untouched after the first bite. Fried rice was okay and sushi was good, although they sent out the wrong one first. Service was okay. The cocktails and vibes were cool so if you're looking for a fun spot to grab a drink, this is a great place but if you're looking for a good dinner spot, there are many better options on the UWS. read more

I love stopping in here on my way home. Same owners as Tessa on Amsterdam but Asset is open later so I tend to come here more often. It has a great vibe and chill ambience. Drinks are good, service at the bar is great ask for Jerome, he's a lot of fun and pours some good cocktails. read more

To start, the vibes were great in here. I love a moody restaurant with low lights and this place checked those boxes. However, we made a reservation for 4 at 8:30 on a Friday night. We were seated right away. We remained seated for almost 30 minutes until someone in our party had to flag someone down to say that we weren't greeted yet. A few minutes later our waiter comes over with water. We placed our drink orders. I ordered the kumquat fizz which has kikori whiskey, king ginger, kumquat, thyme, and agave. The cocktail was really nice. Light and not too sweet. For dinner, I ordered the asset salad which is supposed to have raddichio, gem lettuce, tomato, avocado and ginger dressing. I also ordered the tofu stir fry. Overall, my food was fine. I think the salad was a bit pricey ($20) for a starter place with no protein on it. This place was okay, but in a city where there are plenty of other options, I probably wouldn't return. read more

Maybe closer to 3.5 stars. I am a huge fan of the sister restaurant Tessa so I was dying to try Asset A few comments, the happy hour menu is available from 4-6. The regular menu is available from 5 pm on. This isn't so clear on the website... my recommendation is to arrive at 5 so you can get the best of both menus. we arrived at 4 pm so we ordered a few apps and half priced drinks, relaxed for an hour and then ordered off the regular menu. My friend ordered the Sizzling Peach cocktail which she really enjoyed. I ordered the Lychee Island Elixir and found it to be very heavy on the last ingredient (coconut) and not very lychee like. For $10 each though the drinks were nice. From the happy hour menu we ordered shrimp toasts and the general tsos cauliflower $10 each. Both were tasty, the shrimp toast was a favorite. My friend and I both wished there was a salad or veggie on the happy hour menu as we wanted something refreshing to cleanse our palettes after the fried food. We ended up waiting a solid half hour to order one from the regular menu. I then ordered a cherry lemonade which was delicious, refreshing, tart and not too sweet! We had the wagyu beef tataki $25 and a yellowtail roll $19 which was also quite tasty I also ordered the bluefin tuna poke $21- which was good, but I prefer the Tessa version with mango a bit better. Would come back for happy hour and apps But I would arrive an hour later :-) +Service was great, very attentive +Great ambiance- cozy and intimate inside. +Convenient location on 72nd and Columbus read more

It was a warm Sunday afternoon and some tv personality celebrities including Michael Strahan were hanging outside. We had just saw Kate McKinnon walking past us nonchalantly. This is the upper west side at its finest. The food was good and the flavors were familiar but unique too. The rock shrimp doesn't rival Nobu what so ever but it fixes the craving. The potstickers came out cold in the inside which tells me they were frozen. But when we told them they brought out a new hot plate for us. The potstickers were good! The crispy rice with spicy tuna on it was also warm/cold but tasty! Sitting outside is a scene and great for people watching. The service can be a bit slow but they were also nice and accommodating. read more

While a fan of the previous iteration of Asset, the beau and I love the rebrand. Asian Fusion can be difficult to pull off but they do it successfully here. The place was full on a Saturday night but we managed to snag two bar seats to have dinner. The food was really enjoyable as were the bartenders who were so friendly and helpful for being in the weeds all night. The place is dimly lit and the lanterns add a festive touch to an otherwise vast space. They've really gone all out and we are here for it. Can't wait to go back! read more

Gorgeous! The place is STUNNING inside and the vibes are so good. I got the volcano roll and miso soup, and my partner got the lobster fried rice and lobster bao (a special), and we shared shishito peppers. He loved the shishito peppers but said the lobster fried rice was average. My volcano roll was very good. The miso soup was not worth it for the price ($13). read more

My roommate recommended this place, said it had amazing Italian food. But to my surprise they rebranded a month ago into an Pan Asian restaurant. Interesting... but okay fun! Our server was really nice and gave us really good advice when picking from the menu. Most items on the menu are to share and I was a little worried about wether or not it was going to be filling, but pleasantly surprised that everything filled me up. The food: Chilean sea bass skewer 11/10 Spicy tuna crispy rice 8/10 Brussel sprouts 8/10 Spicy yellow tail 9/10 Everything I ate was literally amazing and it was a fast turnaround after ordering. Really happy I tried this spot out and I'll definitely be back. Standout pieces definitely have to be the chilean sea bass skewer and spicy yellow tail! But also the Brussel sprouts and spicy tuna crispy rice! So everything!! Price: $$$ (50+ each) read more

The dark aesthetic of this restaurant perfectly complements its elegance, creating an intimate atmosphere that's ideal for a romantic night out.

Had an amazing experience! I took myself on a solo date on Valentine's Day. I sat at the bar, mesmerized by the atmosphere. I knew I wanted Chinese food but didn't know what to order from the menu, so I asked the bartender for her recommendations. I wish I got her name. She definitely did not disappoint! For appetizers, I ordered wings and jalapeño yellowtail crudo. Wings are always a MUST and theirs is delicious. I am not big on sushi but the sauce for the yellowtail completes the dish! For my entree, I got the honey soy duck breast... it was so juicy and tender. I can taste it as I write this review lmao. I tried three different drinks, ping guo-timi (fav), lychee island elixir and plum 75. My night out came up to $140, which is a bit pricey, but not when you're treating yourself. I also heard for my next visit, I have to try the steak. They'll definitely see me again! read more

Great Asset for your arsenal of cool date spots or birthday reservations with friends from out of town. The menu is diverse, meaning it will pretty much accommodate anyone. The architect is nicely designed and I consider it very culturally contemporary. The perks is that it's on Seated so there will be a little yield in your mind. read more

I've been to Asset a handful of times - the ambiance is definitely the highlight: warm lighting, cozy seating, and just the right level of background music to make it an ideal spot for couples. The appetizers are always excellent. The wings were perfectly crispy with a great balance of flavor, and the spare ribs were fall-off-the-bone tender with a rich, smoky glaze that made them absolutely irresistible. If you're a fan of bold, well-executed starters, you won't be disappointed. The service was fine. There were times where the waiter/busboy forgot to refill my water and I had to ask for it but otherwise, service was solid. read more

Let me start by saying this is one of the MOST GORGEOUS restaurants I've been to !! The moment you walk in you know you're going to have a great time the music is upbeat and current and the lighting sets the mood !! The food is sooooo good especially the crispy tuna rice and shishito peppers !! The sushi is super fresh and flavorful too we loved literally every dish we tried!! The drinks are spot on too especially their plum sangria different from other sangrias I've tried it's my favorite version !! The staff is super attentive you never have to look far for someone to assist you they're on top of it So get dressed up and expect to have a great time read more

I am sorry for this review, especially since they were open on Christmas Day. They should be rewarded but something terrible happened to me while there. Let's begin. So the ambiance and the decor is upscale. On the bottom level, there is a beautiful bar and high top tables and 4 tables that seat 4 or more people. There is upstairs seating, which I would have preferred, but I think k it was closed today. You could come here for a variety of occasions and have a great time. The menu consists of many shareable small plates and there is one section that has "entrees" and sushi rolls. There are plenty of choices for alcohol and mixed drinks. The menu _could_ be reasonable if you choose to have small plate of sushi roll for yourself. But you could treat this place as fusion tapas and select a whole bunch of different things and have a variety of dishes, flavors, textures, sauces. The food is carefully prepared with beautiful presentations. A lot of the food is has delicious sauces as part of the plate which adds to the delectable flavors and a specialness as there are a lot of different tastes that surprise your palette. Look at the pics and you will see what I mean. We treated all our choices as tapas and decided to mix sharable and entrees and we had a plethora of choices for the night and a good time. I chose many things from the crunchy menu, dim sum and sushi menu plus a special salmon entree and the udon noodles. The food is fun and delicious but not cheap. Granted, this wasn't the most expensive restaurant I have patronized but I would say it was about $50 a person and only one person had a drink. I guess we could have ordered less and it would have been fine. So - I am allergic to cilantro. No, this is beyond the soap taste. This is a real allergy - complete with hives, closed throats and throwing up with bile and everything. I let the waiter know and even told him to put a plate on my husband's side of the table because it had cilantro and I could not have it. I was clear I was allergic. FOUR of our dishes had cilantro in it and I was told nothing. I ordered an octopus dish and first bite, I knew immediately that it had cilantro in it. I am not going to lie, I was angry as I threw the food out of my mouth into my napkin. But I kept my composure as I waved a server down and asked them how many dishes on my table had cilantro. They were so nonchalant as the server was like "The octopus, the green sauce has cilantro. The fried dish has junior cilantro as a garnish but you can take it off. It's just junior cilantro, not cilantro. It's just a garnish." WTF? I was like "Why didn't you not tell me? I can't eat any of these dishes and I would have made different choices. I could have asked for the sauce to be removed or not eaten it. If you know I have an allergy, why did you add the garnish?" He pretty acted like I could eat around the sauce or remove the garnish. Nevertheless, he took the octopus away, never bringing me a new one and redid the fried dish. I stayed away from the other two dishes that had cilantro. During dinner my stomach started hurting, and I threw up in the bathroom at the end of the night. And I threw up two more times on the way home. But I didn't have to use an epipen (so far) or go to the hospital since I didn't use one. I want to stress the server wasn't rude, he just seemed clueless to how allergies work. Or he just didn't believe me. My brother manages a restaurant group and told me that I should have called the manager and got my meal comped but I didn't want to get anyone fired or make it so the server would have to pay for it or anything. The bill was over $200 and my husband still tipped 20% because he used to work in the restaurant industry and he feels bad about the crew missing out if they pool tips. Anyway, this feels like a huge lack of respect and I didn't keep any of the food down. So there's that but my husband and son enjoyed their meals and the pomegranate martini he ordered. read more

Brandon and William made our night - they were just so accommodating and helpful in deciding what to order. I came here for a friends birthday and and they made it super special. This is our first time coming to this place. We came here because we saw other peoples reviews and recommendations online. We were looking for something that had Asian fusion and although this wasn't really a true fusion, it was impeccable. we got the yellowtail sushi roll which was phenomenal. The past stickers were unbelievable. Flaming dynamite crispy rice was good but I feel like the spicy tuna rice might have even been better but the presentation was beautiful. We also got the lava cake which was incredible. Didn't the ribeye on the other hand was super tender but I really wish I ordered the beef and broccoli which they are known for. read more

My new girls night out spot in NYC! I'm a crispy rice girlie and they definitely do not hold back with not only the aesthetic but the taste! If you only try one thing? Make sure you try that. If you have enough time to try two - please do me the biggest favor and get the lobster fried rice. When I say it was probably the best fried rice i've had in a really long time? I mean it whole heartedly. Ambiance is gorg and the food is delish. I wasn't the biggest fans of the drinks so I don't have much to say there but if I had to choose one it would be the Lychee Elixer. I'll definitely be back for the food! read more

Came here for happy hour and always wanted to try it since we are a fans of their sister restaurant. I can't say whether it was better before the change up to their new theme. But, after they changed their theme we tried it. We had the lychee island elixar,Carmen, and sizzling peach. None of the drinks were drinks we would order again, they were a little watered down and sweet. We got the rock shrimp tempura and that was a bit of a let down, it lacked flavor or robustness to the point I actually thought the same thing at P.F. Chang's was better. Check your bill! Thought it was strange when the waiter asked if we wanted the happy hour after we ordered the drinks. Of course, why would we want to pay regular price when we came here for happy hour. When we got our bill, I noticed he charged us full price and had to correct it. Strange. read more

Beautiful time. Had a really good time at asset.y first time there. The food was great. Special mention for the tuna crispy rice that had a little fire show on the plates. The dessert are super ornate and the 1 drink I had was sooooo good. I love the atmosphere here and it's decorated well. The music is top tier as well. The lobster rice was also a hit. Our server Alli helped my friend plan some really cool moments that happens during dinner. Our resy was for 7:45 and there was not that many ppl there but by the time we left it felt more like a lounge / restaurant scene. This will def go on my list of faves. The price point was pretty good too especially for the level of service. They do have two large rooms in case you go with a big group. read more

Service ruined my experience. I didn't even order dinner after my appetizers which were good.

Had dinner here with a friend last night. I was really looking forward to trying this place out as the menu looked awesome. Well to my surprise besides the beautiful inside of the restaurant ( we ate outdoors) It was not a good meal at all. I got the westside cocktail which was very tasty! My friend wanted a spicy margarita and it was not spicy enough for her liking. She asked for them to make it more and they came back and still tasted the same. I had asked for my salad with out cheese.. and what comes out??... it has cheese on it. The bacon did not look cooked enough there was two little pieces that did. My friend ordered a burrata salad and she said it was not good at all and cold too. No one asked if she wanted something else the waiter just said that they will remove it from the check, which was nice but then never proceeded to ask if she wanted anything else. Then the main dishes came out.. My friend had scallops and she said this dish as well was not cooked to her liking and it just was not that good. I had the chicken with mashed potatoes. To be honest the chicken wasn't very tasty but the mashed potatoes were very tasty. Soo all around this wasn't a good meal at all but I was happy to see that it is a very dog friendly place if you sit outside. That is what made my night seeing all the cute dogs having meals with their owners. read more
