We chose your establishment to celebrate Valentine's Day with my son, daughter-in-law, and grandchildren. Unfortunately, what should have been a special family evening turned into a disappointing and unacceptable experience. When my son and his family arrived, they were told they had to remain in the waiting area. He politely asked why they couldn't be seated inside and was told it was because their party exceeded four people. When my husband and I arrived shortly after, I asked the same question and was given the exact same explanation. However, the dining area was nearly empty -- only two couples were seated inside at the time. Shortly afterward, a larger family (five or more people) walked in and was immediately seated indoors. At that point, it was clear that the reasoning given to us was inconsistent. After I addressed the situation, another staff member stepped in, apologized, and attempted to make things right, even offering a complimentary drink. While I acknowledge that effort, the issue was not about a free drink. It was about how my family was treated from the start. The way my son, daughter-in-law, and grandchildren were initially handled was unacceptable and left a lasting impression. Good food does not excuse poor or inconsistent treatment. This experience reflects a need for better communication, consistency, and customer service standards. Because of this, I will not be returning. I hope this is taken seriously so that other families do not experience the same treatment. read more

I took my teenage twins that are 14. They ordered the All you can eat Sushi and they got 1 small salad, edamame, and 3 rolls apiece. For myself I ordered chicken bites and Ramen. I don't eat sushi or seafood. So the waitress watched us the whole time to make sure we weren't sharing with each other. So if you don't eat everything they will charge you for whatever left. But you cannot take the leftovers even after paying for it. So they will literally charge you to throw away the food. The food was ok, nothing special in flavor. But the service and the treatment was far worse. read more

I was looking for a new Chinese restaurant nearby and this spot is right around the corner. It looks like there is no parking from U.S. 30, but there is plenty of parking in back. For those with disabilities, there are a few steps to get inside. There is also a ramp, but it's a little bit of a hike to get from the ramp to the entrance. I went late afternoon on a Monday and was seated right away. I was seated in the enclosed patio/sunroom. It was bright and inviting. Because it is sort of indoor/outdoor space they need to pay special attention to cleaning the base and corners of the retractable doors, but it was mostly clean. The menu is a blend of Japanese, Thai and Chinese. I ordered the crab rangoon as an appetizer, a glass of Thai tea and an order of kung pao beef. The crab rangoon came out promptly and was hot and delicious. The Thai tea was good, but I wish it had a little more cream in it. The kung pao beef came out hot. The flavor was really good, but it lacked spice. It was supposed to be spicy, there was none. There was a good quantity of beef in the dish, but the quality of the beef was mediocre. A couple pieces had cartilage and was very hard to chew. I actually had to spit some out which is never good. If you like peanuts and water chestnuts then you will love this dish. If the dish had more spice and a better quality beef it would have been perfect. Overall, I spent about $35 with tip. I left with leftovers, so the entree is big enough for two people to share. It isn't my favorite Asian food in the area, but I would definitely go back and maybe try something different. read more

So... they've added an AYCE sushi option. Umm. So good. I generally don't go back when I've written a "their food is too salty" review. Cuz generally that's just a chef issue with being heavy handed with salt but sushi? You can't make that salty. It's up to ME how much soy sauce I dip it in. Seriously. So good. Even the appetizers that were offered with the AYCE, so good. Not salty. Actually perfect. Get the jalapeno bombs. Trust me. Delicious. The service is sweet just as I stated in my initial review. The parking situation is the same. read more

Hence, down the absolute worst service I've ever received at a restaurant nevertheless the sushi place. I had high hopes the price was fair and then you look good. I placed my order. I asked for ice water to drink and wasabi mayo. My appetizers came out first they were pretty good Then my sushi came out. The sushi was not very good quality. The tuna had a really bad smell to it. I pointed this out to the waitress and she shrugged your shoulders and then asked her where is the water that I ordered and the wasabi mayo she said OK Never gonna be seen again absolutely horrible if you wanna go out there for all appetizers places in bed if you want to get sushi tastes old then you wanna go to this spot I should've known when I went at lunchtime. There was one other person at the table. I don't understand How they get good reviews. I'm not sure if they're fake reviews or if people have no clue out here in Northwest Indiana, but let me just stay. I'll never return. I cannot recommend the place and I hope to save your money and go somewhere else. read more

1st timer, ordered thru Door Dash. The portion was a little off, I ordered a Large Shrimp fried rice but the portion looked like a medium. The rice needed more seasoning, shrimp were a decent size. The crab Rangoon was great, soft and not burnt. I think the next time I will go have dinner at the restaurant to see if there is a difference. So the jury is still out, can't wait to check it out again. read more

The food was just OK. I had the fish lover sushi, and the pad Thai noodles. On the menu it has a pepper that indicates spicy, but it was not spicy at all. Our waitress was a young girl who was very awkward in her communication. It was a little offputting that one of the workers used a zapper to kill bugs that were near the sushi bar. The bathroom was clean and smelled good. We went around the front of the building to enter, but you have to enter from the back. read more

Everything was delicious. The sushi was wonderful. The crab rangoon, gyoza, other appetizers was delicious. Service was fast and friendly. The patio seating area was charming. I'll be back for sure. read more

We had few different sushi rolls. It was delicious, fresh and HUGE. This is by far one of the best and most authentic sushi place in the area. The atmosphere is nice, quiet and friendly- nothing overly fancy. You will be perfectly fine eating your sushi with fork if you're not a chopstick person lol. read more

I came back! Wow, I was blown away at the food provided today during lunch. We ordered: Crispy Rice, Spicy Kani Salad, Gyoza, Orange Chicken, Chicken Lo Mein, and the Den Roulette Roll (comes with a shot and 1 hidden spicy roll, loser takes the shot!) everything was fantastic. Service was fast and our waitress was on top of drinks and picking plates up. We sat in the enclosed outdoor area again and it was perfect. I highly enjoyed every dish and atmosphere today! read more

I had the chicken cashew which flavor was good but the zucchini tricked my mind because it looked like potato,the bang bang shrimp was really good and the jalapeño bomb was awesome Everyone else had sushi and there were no complaints there.the only thing negative to say is the wait for food was a bit long,but because of the kindness of the hostesses and waitress i was able to look past that read more

I am embarrassed to admit that this was my first visit to Den Asian Bistro. There is this AMAZING Asian restaurant right down the road from me and I have not experienced this... crazy. So today is the day. My mother in law and I stopped in during lunch for sushi. You walk into this inviting foyer or your watch back to this little bump out porch that they have inclosed. So bright and a cozy. There is also a huge dining area for seating but this little bump out was perfect. As we walked to our table we were greeted by the sushi chef who was working on some really fantastic creations. Our lovely waitress sat us down and gave us a huge menu. So much to try. But this time we were there for the sushi. We shared the Godzilla and the T-Rex. Our waitress surprised us with an appetizer from the chef. It was a chef special and not on the menu, and absolutely amazing. The Godzilla and T-Rex were big portions, we had no room for more! I want to say Godzilla was my favorite! I also had some delicious hot tea. There is no doubt we will be returning. I have already planned date night with the hubs here soon! read more

They changed their recipe for their crab Rangoon's, spring rolls, and ginger dressing. Tasted gross. Have removed a couple of good entree's. Overall food quality is decreasing. Service is good. read more

Used to be punctual and great service here. Wife enjoys it for sushi pickup. Latest - and now probably last time going here - service was awful. Online order was 20 minutes late... staffing shortage or otherwise was disappointing considering just two California sushi rolls. read more

Make sure you read the menu and you know what you want. The food was hot coming out, but absolutely NO flavor. The waitress was very slow, she acted like she didn't want to wait on me. I will not be returning. The restaurant was very nice well lit and clean. read more

Love the food here. There all you can eat lunch for 21.99 is an absolute winner. The whole place is beautiful and staff are great.

Stopped in for lunch on their second day open. Quickly greeted by friendly staff and seated right away. We had already checked out the menu beforehand so knew what we were ordering, but still browsed the menu. So many fantastic sounding things! We ended up starting with the Szechuan Wontons which were delicious and spicy. Then we each got a sushi lunch special for a combined five rolls - Spicy Tuna Avocado, Yellowtail Scallion, Spicy Salmon, Spicy Shrimp, and Philadelphia. All of them were fantastic. Overall, very pleased with the service, food, and atmosphere. Definitely will be returning to check out more of their menu. Service read more

Pretty good drink. It's sweet and not too strong but I don't think it went with the food, that was on me though. The wontons were good but they do leave a weird after taste in your mouth. Kung pao chicken was the best out of everything. The Triple Delight was okay.... Good service and nice sun room seating. read more

Came here for lunch. Not a glutton but was pleasantly surprised to see they had all u can eat sushi. Place is really nice on the inside. Service was excellent. Sushi was very good....got some specialty rolls, maki, nigiri and Gyoza. My wife is Japanese and she liked it very much. Rolls weren't made huge with a lot of rice. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this place. read more

Delicious food! Large portions and the service is good. I really like the atmosphere in the solarium as well.

Came on a Sunday night with the family for my son 16th birthday. We had sushi and delicious Thai and Mongolian beef. Service was great and we sat on the indoor/outdoor area. Lovely food and great sushi! We can not wait to go back. read more

Great place! We order from this place at least a few times a year. People are nice, the atmosphere is friendly. Food is fresh and deliciou.

This is our go-to for sushi especially since we are 5 minutes away! We really enjoy the specialty sushi rolls. Red dragon, sweetheart, fish lover, tuna meets spicy crab roll and rainbow. I recommend them all. High quality, fresh and fun. Usually very fast. We did dine in once and I remember eating a super fun spicy pad Thai as well. Yum! read more

This was a horrible experience. First, we found a bug in one of the serving sauces on the table. The bug was still kicking. The salt/pepper shakers were all dirty and looked like they've never been wiped down a day in their life. The food was very mediocre, I would recommend Furin in Valpo for some WAY better sushi. And to top it all off our server was inattentive and didn't even care when we pointed out the bug. All that and we still had to pay $75 for a VERY below average lunch. Do not come here. read more

Fantastic experience. Hubby & myself were craving sushi. We started with a shrimp& veggie tempura. Was so light & flavorful. We order rolls & fresh sashimi. Unfortunately our server forgot to put in the order for the sashimi. Was the only negative. Our rolls were Beautifully displayed & were delicious. Looking forward to coming back & trying other menu items read more

Great Asian bistro. Ambiance is good and the food was delicious and fresh. Sushi roll was fresh and filling. Generous portion. Tried the soft shell crab and edamame. Awesome. Also had the Mongolian beef that proved to be equally good in portion size and freshness. Cocktails were just ok. Will definitely make Den Asian Bistro a regular on my standard sushi runs. read more

Ordered take out and it was delicious. Ordered tofu pad thai and egg drop soup and super yummy. When I picked up, I really thought how lovely the atmosphere is and would love to enjoy a meal there.

We ordered the Seafood Delight (scallops, shrimp, and crab for $15.95. Imagine our surprise when there wasn't a single scallop in our entree. My husband called immediately and was told that "we ran out of the scallops and the chef meant to tell you" . Ummm , NO, that's not how it works. They begrudgingly agreed to refund our AMEX $5 for the lack of scallops. You can guess that we have not seen that credit a month later. Shady place. Food nothing special. Better ask if they have the ingredients. read more

They just opened last week, so we were unfortunately the only customers. We sat in the enclosed patio that had a nice water feature. The menu has a nice selection of Chinese, Thai, and Japanese with a decent sushi selection. The 2 rolls we had were quite delicious- very fresh tasting with nice soft rice. The Tom Yum soup was a large serving and had tasty crisp vegetables. We are very happy to see somebody with good sushi in the area, and we will be back! Often! read more

This review is more like a small complaint. The food was good, so that a good thing. We ordered Uber eats that cost us almost $100. Here is my complaint, why can't condiments come with the food and why with the amount of food ordered and for the price I had to call and have it added as it is not an option on Uber eats, I only get 1 small chili oil? That's so insane, it doesn't cost much to make the oil, we should not be charged $1 for a small plastic container or at least be comped for the additional ones. read more

The service is great and the rolls delicious and fresh. Would highly recommend this restaurant food.
