    Cashew chicken with no fresh veggies like we asked

    *Under new ownership and will no longer be going* Let me start by saying we use to go here all the time, I'd say weekly. We would do a huge order when people came to visit. It was our go to. We went today and will not be returning. They are under new ownership and it's terrible. We ordered our usual dish and it was nothing like it used to be. The chicken was no longer white meat and the vegetables were not fresh. We asked for zucchini and broccoli and they did not put in either. The portions were also smaller and the order took twice as long as usual. This place is no longer what it used to be and it's so disappointing. Hoping to save others from wasting their time and money like we did.

    Great food, affordable and great service. Food is always on point with large portions, fresh and made to order. Get there early for no wait, bonus they have specials!

    It appears to be a metallic strand from a kitchen scouring pad. The rest is my bed lo mein.

    My wife and I came here for lunch but I had a surprise in my beef Lo mein, a five inch wire entanglement in the beef that I almost swallowed. Be careful out there people. P.S. the waitress said my dish is free yet no apology from cook/manager. I had this before at a Mexican restaurant.

    Sesame Tofu

    I have gone to Asian Café since childhood, and talked it up so much my friends and family started going there too. It was the place I would always ask to go to on my birthday, all purely for the fact that I am a vegetarian and it is next to impossible to find dishes at any other restaurant that aren't just noodles or rice and vegetables (not every vegetarian just wants a pile of vegetables!!!), and even when places offered tofu dishes, it was never done right or well. Asian Cafe did it different - the sesame tofu was truly my dish to write home about. It was breaded and crispy - never soggy or wet. When ordered to go, they packed the sauce separately because they knew it should STAY crispy. The tofu was low moisture, seemingly pressed and a perfect texture. I crave it constantly. However, they have recently changed their menu and removed it. It is highly disappointing that vegetarian dishes are seen as less desirable or less important, in all aspects, but especially here at my favorite place. Today they were able to make it for me because they still happened to have tofu left and it was still in their system. This will change in time I'm sure. Aside from that dish there's really no other reason for me to go there. Besides that, our waitress was incredibly sweet and took her time to ensure our orders were correct with our changes.

    I stopped by The Asian Cafe the other day. Upon entry, you'll notice an outdate and weird setup. The bar is directly in front of you and is long. The sitting area for dinner is separated by a wall. The restaurant seemed clean though. You have to order your food first and then you can seat yourself. The food will be brought to you. This was different, but makes sense. For a starter, I ordered the spider roll and mongolian beef for my entree. My hubby ordered the bang bang shrimp. My spider roll was not good. The ingredients seemed stale and old. I was highly disappointed. The mongolian beef did not impress me either. I could not tell if the ingredients were either not fresh or cheap cuts of beef. My rating for the spider roll - 2/5 Mongolian beef - 2/5 Customer service - 5/5 My hubby's rating for the bang bang shrimp - 2/5. I was really hoping for some good Chinese food in Concord, but this is definitely not it. I was pulling for this restaurant, but I simply cannot recommend it.

    Loved in the area for several years but never tried this restaurant. The food is very good. The sushi is fresh and presentation is very nice. Very nice portions. Service is good. Prices are good for the portion. A lot of people order for take out as opposed to eating at the restaurant. I have to say isn't a romantic or well decorated restaurant. It's a place to grab a quick but very good meal. So it depends if that is okay. We didn't mind because we were out shopping. Overall a tasty meal that was served hot and quick. I will be back. Thanks!

    Upon entering, you place your order with the cashier, they give you a number, then you seat yourself - your food will be brought to you. I ordered the Luncheon Sushi. You have the option for either 2 or 3 rolls, and I opted for the 3! My total with a drink was $19, but was less than impressed with what was brought to my table. Since moving from California, Ive been on the hunt for a new sushi spot in my new home, and unfortunately this will not be on my list, sushi-wise. They have a TON of other menu options, and I do anticipate coming back for the other menu selections to try. The tuna and salmon in my "fresh" tuna roll and "fresh" salmon roll tasted anything but fresh:( they were warm/room temperature and almost chewy. The taste was "off" so I moved onto the Crunchy Florida Roll. Almost exactly like a regular Crunch Roll, and am unable to describe the difference between the two? The shrimp tasted like it was pre-fried, as it was warm and more chewy than what shrimp normally is. The rolls were overly stuffed with rice. Hoping to find better quality fish.. this wont be a do-over to order sushi, but will try again! Their rice and noodle options looked good!

    If your open sign is on and the front door unlocked and open don't acted surprised when a customer walks in. Crazy how that works ain't it?

    My wife and I eat here about once a month. We add veggies and tofu to fried rice. The sushi is excellent as well.

    I had been here before and had the most delicious Mongolian beef I've ever had (which I did let the…read morechef know on our way out) lol Just a note: usually Mongolian beef has a good taste, but the beef is thin slices in a little tough at most of the places I've had it. But at hot tuna, the pieces are tender and delicious. It is a must try!! So I wanted my husband who loves Mongolian beef try it. Sunday was our anniversary, so I decided to make reservations and finally get him here. When I made reservations, I did tell them it was our anniversary upon arriving. They led us to our table which was decorated with flower petals, heart candles, and a happy anniversary sign. It was lovely. We had a great server name to Mitzi who was sweet and attentive. My husband had the Mongolian beef and loved it; (as did the two ladies in the booth next to us.) lol I had the sesame chicken, which was also delicious. They use tender, white meat chicken. And to end a fabulous evening, they served us a delicious piece of cheesecake on the house. This is definitely a restaurant you should not miss out on. We've lived in North Carolina for five years now and this is one of the top two restaurants that I've been to so far!!

    I left here STUFFED. The food here was truly so tasty and the cocktails were curated so well. They…read morealso have a lunch special of two speciality rolls for $22!! I don't know where you can get a deal as good as that anywhere else near by!
