Reviews of Asuka Japanese Cuisine (Fish Shop)

Denise Bolduc

Been there 6 times already and its with tax and 10% tip $31 tastes very good and lots of different sushi and my favorite Japanese won ton soup

Michael Morin

So fresh, so fast, so friendly. Best price for sushi in St thomas

Chris Cage

I was really unimpressed by the quality here. The whole restraint was quite dirty and the fish that was served to me was starting the go bad. My waitress was very nice however I wont be returning here again.

Edward H

Best sushi restaurant I've EVER had by far, so fresh and good decently priced ????

Jinder

Good food and fast servers and very polite love that it is close to me

Nyree Bond

Delicious take out sushi! We miss eating in here (closed due to COVID) but they have made it just as amazing to eat at home!

Christine Williamson

This place makes some pretty good sushi at a fair price. I really recommend going here!

M D

Came for dine in and it was excellent...Should be at that price for all you can eat...although seemed a little expensive for a five year old Can't do five stars because I then did take out a week or so later and the sushi was great but it was very disappointing when the sesame chicken at around 10.99 was old tasting, chewy, dry and definitely microwaved... I expected better because at dine in, everything tasted very fresh... When is more expensive for take out, I expect FRESH...

Elyse Broczkowski

The food was very yummy.and the service was excellent.

Chris Dean

Great food. Staff is on point

Noname Beats

Ate lunch here today for the first time. I've had sushi in NYC, LA, San Fran, Toronto and i'll add St Thomas to the list of some of the best places to eat sushi. The food was fresh and the taste was immaculate.

Tyrel Oostlander

We were so excited to find such a fine sushi restaurant so close to us. The price is reasonable, the food fresh and delicious and the staff is always friendly and efficient.

Cheyenne M

Reasonably decent sushi for the price. Great selection of starters, sushi, and entrees. And a very good selection of combos for takeout. The staff are always pleasant and helpful, and we have never had any issues they weren't happy to fix for us. (Just a note we have only done takeout here, so I can't speak to the dine in experience)

Zainab GOODHUE

They don’t disappoint at all each time I order for my family.. it’s better than the last so fresh and taste.. awesome customer service.. love it every time..

Craig Dunford

Great food, but slow service. However, its good for the price compared to the high cost tablet using sushi restaurants in London.

M.Q 7X7

Hands down the best eat-in restaurant in St Thomas. Excellent value for money and service is always top notch. If you haven't tried it yet, you need to!

Maria Da Lourdes

Fresh and tasty eat all you can eat dinner buffet! Friendly staff and great service! Clean restaurant and washroom

Krysta W

I enough the food very much here and the quality is still the same after three years between visit

JINGJING ZHAO

First visit here this evening. It was DELICIOUS!!!!!!!! Service was excellent also. Would highly recommend this place!!!!!!!!!!

Lucky Joe

Service is amazing, price unbeatable, and they are local. I love coming to this place!

Hubert Drec

You cant go wrong with this all you can eat venue. Everything is made to order and it's very easy to to be here for a couple hours trying the extremely expensive menu. The black dragon roll is my personal favourite, plus they have more contemporary options for people that are new to Japanese cuisine, even having some traditional north American options if you have a child (or friend) that is a picky eater.

Mark Murakami

Good but not great good sushi in town service isn't bad I always have a descent time. It's better quality than you expect being a little hole in the wall all you can eat sushi. I have been a couple times and I expect to be back for my next craving.

Laura Redford

Their wide variety of different kinds of food is astonishing. The buffet style and menu is great and I can't wait to go back

K311Z

Very comfortable and inviting service. Good tasting always delish! Never have had a bad experience here! So many treasures to discover for yourselves. Don't be afraid to try something out of the blue like octopus it may just surprise you! Everything was great.

LifeLine

Friendly staff, nice selection. We always enjoy this restaurant.

Will Ong

Food was good for a small town. There was a mass section on the menu for a flat fee meal on an all you can eat menu. I was charged a unfinished plate penatly for an unfinished item that I did not enjoy. There was no sign or mention on menu for this extra charge. This was a very unprofessional restaurant business ptatice plus getting an very berating attitude from the server because of the unfinish plate. It is a restaurant you don't want to take people to introduce to sushi for the first time as I did my girlfriend and our 2 friends. Service was also very slow and no table clearing service .

CK DeGraaf

Lovely place, excellent food, and wonderful service!

Rebecca Cramer

We went on a busy friday night and the servers did a good job with the crowd. The food is good for an all you can eat sushi restaurant.

Carolina Lebron

Delicious dinner, good service and very nice staff.

Doug Carter

Had a great dinner at Asuka. We had the Bento box summer meal, one with Salmon and the other with Beef teriyaki. Came with soup and a salad. $15.95 each.

Chrishel Lynn

Great food, vast menu, prompt service. Even non sushi lovers will have plenty to choose from. Each patron pays flat price then orders items from the menu, you can order several times, try not to be wasteful. They do their best to describe items from the menu. Enjoy!

Terry Taz McKenna

Great services ????, perfect delicious food.. ???? ????

Nancy DeNardis

Awesome food and service! We love going there

J

These folks always do it right. We order from here as a special date night treat and it's legitimately the best sushi we've ever had. The staff is amazing as well, very kind and courteous, very fast... We just love this place, it's the best. Prices for takeout are competitive as well.

Deep Ender

Great burritos, the tortilla was a bit weird, but over all tastey food.

Brian Gravelle

Good local sushi all you can eat #stthomasproud

Brandon Mizon

Great food, good prices for the buffet. Highly recommended!

Ian Wilsdon

Best sushi around. Miss the all you can eat :(

Jeremy Hofstee

Since Covid-19 we’ve not been back but have ordered to-go...food is so great!

Janet Q

Fast to order and get your food, reasonably priced for all you can eat. Pretty good variety on the lunch menu and slightly more so on dinner menu. Most of the North American standard type sushi options are available on both. It's the only all sushi restaurant in St. Thomas. Bonus: They do take out!

Able Android

Excellent all you can eat or ala cart. Fresh tasty ingredients and wonderful staff.

Susan

Good food and great service but their waitresses get NONE of their tips!!!!!

Kaitlin Baronas

Yum Yum Yummy Yum????????I love eating here!! I usually eat wayyyy too much though. It's just because it's so yummy!! I go to a place in London too but Asuka just tastes more authentic. Can't say enough about this place. Service is awesome - prices are fair - food is exceptional and I always leave stuffed????????I've even started getting takeaway from them!

Michael Inman

By far the best sit-in restaurant in Saint Thomas. Great food, excellent staff and convenient seating; if you ever feel the desire to try something new, hit Asuka up. My favourites are the Sirloin Beef, Beef Teriyaki Rolls, Tuna Rolls; really anything Maki.

mike pepper

I thought it was pretty good it's a family-owned restaurant the service is a tad slow they should maybe hire another waitress

lance mcillahroy

Family run business with incredibly delicious sushi. The staff are wonderful! Every trip there is a delight. This is literally the best sushi I've had anywhere.

Pete Broughton

We have eaten at numerous sushi restaurants. This place is up there with the best. Fast and friendly service with fresh food.

Zoltan Komaromi

Love this place! I've been many times and the service and food have always been wonderful!

Jocelyn W

Ordered for the first time recently, and was very happy with the quality! Tried the maki tray. Food was ready for pickup and was cooked prepared wonderfully. Will definitely go back again and would recommend.

Susi Peters

Good food, but they didn't bring all the things we ordered each time.

Kris Henrikson

Dine in

David Flikkema

Incredible sushi for a small town in Southern Ontario (this coming from a transplanted Westerner). Great prices for the all you can eat, and fairly priced for takeout. Will be spending a lot of time here now that we live so close!

Julie Inthavong

Great food! Fun and casual atmosphere very friendly. Sushi was good, pretty standard. Price was average for all you can eat dinner. Wait safe could have been MUCH better with: refilling water either never happened or was at the end of our dinner, buffet sheets were also hard to come by.

Maple M

Always fresh! Love to go for sushi lunches with the kids and my friends, it costs a bit less at lunch but very good value for money. There are a number of North American dishes available on the all you can eat menu but the majority of items are Japanese. I love the sweet potato sushi and the tempura items are very tasty.

David Ferguson

Tasty and reasonably priced. Staff very friendly and pleasant.

Jessica Tendeiro

Always have a great experience when I go. Friendly staff and fast service, and the food is awesome.

gtmustang2010ont

Service was good . Food was good for St Thomas . Very clean restaurant. To be fair we ordered all you can eat.

Nikky

Awesome sushi place here in St.Thomas. Better than some places in London. You never go away hungry leaving here.

Johny Sanders (JohnySandels)

They tend to be a bit slow on orders for pick up. Tasty food though. The process of ordering over the phone is a bit painful, and they have a hard time understanding you. …

Nick Centeno

Very nice take-out experience!

Jesse Hooghiem

They're pretty quick with preparing the orders when you call ahead and food tastes fresh. Reasonable price as well.

Elizabeth Patterson

I've been meaning to eat here since I moved to St. Thomas a couple months ago.. we finally got takeout tonight and I am currently enjoying the most beautifully crafted sushi I've had in years. Thank you for a wonderful meal!! We'll definitely be repeat customers! ????

Kathy Vogel

Great place to eat! Presentation was spectacular, food was awesome, great prices and the staff was amazing. Definitely will be back!

Michelle Lemay

We always enjoy our meals when we come to Asuka. As busy as it was, our service was great, food was quick and delicious, and atmosphere was cozy and friendly.

Jenna Reiser-Brown

Great food, large selection, friendly staff, affordable prices. Recommended.

Kings Kegwaehi

Great all you can eat sushi. Service is a bit on the slow side and ordering more takes some time. Staff is generally courteous.

Joshua Chipps (Chipper)

Always great food and friendly service.

Your Future Real Estate Investor

Service was horrible and the food options were horrible. Alot of food we ordered came to the table aged. Not kid friendly at all.

Soylent Rhys

The best sushi around! And the other food is amazing aswell for a great price!!

Jamie Robertson

Service

Percy T

We moved to St Thomas 3 years ago and were delighted that there was a sushi restaurant in town. The service is always friendly and fast. The food is fresh and delicious. The portion sizes are perfect and consistent with every visit. The all you can eat and a la carte pricing is fair and affordable. We love Asuka!

Maria Fehr

Their extensive list of dragon rolls are very good and fun to explore. Fish tastes fresh.

Sergio oliveira

Very friendly, excellent waitress. Food is delicious and the price is fair.

John Harfoush

Really enjoyed eating here. Tasted great, would recommend you come early if eating here on the weekend. It filled up fast after we arrived for an early supper. Also it is family friendly.

Leslie Lumley

The best place to eat in town. I love taking my family here for AYCE, and ordering takeout is always nice as well. Portions are a good size, and I find it just as good as any place in London. The staff remember all the items you ordered, unlike a lot of places. Favourites are the butterfly cheese, any tempura, fried udon and crispy roll.

Evan Spangenberg

The staff was super helpful in letting me know what options I had due to a food allergy. There was still lots to try and we ate our fill. It is good to know that they have separate deep fryers.

pete b

My favorite sushi spot in St. Thomas and not sure if there are even any others. Staff is nice and place is a nice enviroment and comfortable enough. Food is really good too!

Jon Newman

No parking lot specifically for the restaurant but i found parking on the street very easily. The reason is very bland in decor and colour. Seems outdated but somehow new at the same time. The food was good for sushi and the service was alright. I think the lunch price might be a little high for an all you can eat in my opinion but I did go on a Friday when it is more money for your food. It might be the only sushi place in St Thomas so if you need a fix for for it.

hugh johnston

One of the better places for service compared to other all you can eat sushi places

john graham

Great service, great sashimi, at a very reasonable price.

Anthony Halpin

Very good service. Good sushi especially considering the location. The miso soup was a bit on the cool side. The salmon sashimi was decent and the rolls were quite good. The tempura was decent as well. This place is all you can eat as well. I've had worse sushi in London so this place was a nice surprise located close to home in St Thomas.

Bryce M.

Best sushi I've ever had. I would recommend to go!

Hope Stewart (cancongirl73)

Great fresh all you can eat food ! Sashimi is great fresh big pieces not like most places that give you a small little sliver, by far my favourite place to come get sushi, and I've been to a lot of places ! Great friendly service!

Grace Grace

Food was great!! Fresh and delicious.

Julie Leeds

Absolutely amazing atmosphere and service, the food comes fresh and quick, the quality is undeterred and the service was wonderful and willing to give helpful hints on using chopsticks for the first time (or training sticks). Will definitely be coming back here again. I fullheartedly recommend the mango ice cream, it was a 10/10 knockout.

Megan L

Very nice experience here with my husband. They followed covid protocols well and the restaurant was kept clean. The servers here were great - they were attentive, nice, made sure the table was cleared and drinks were refilled. Food came at …

Atoor Yokhana

I've always liked this restaurant. Great place to have some sushi with friends

Scott Wilhelm

So yummy love the tempura. Can’t wait until they open up again

CC

This is an amazing sushi restaurant that is found in the heart of downtown St. Thomas. They have tons of options to choose from and the service is quick and friendly. Also the prices are not bad when compared to places in London. If you love sushi and are in the area you will want to try this place out.

Marlize Rupple

Always insanely happy with the quality of food and the speed. Sushi is always pricey no matter where you go.

Hashbrown

Wonderful sushi with great service. I prefer it to any of the London sushi restaurants. I do wish they were wheelchair accessible, though.

Jennifer Older

Great little gem of a restaurant! Delicious, fresh food and quick service. Perfect for a leisurely meal shared in good company.

Dayna Joyce

▪️Price is good ▪️Food Quality is great ▪️Time it takes for food to be ready is reasonable ▪️Cleanliness is very good Overall this is a great place to eat good sushi for a good price.

Brandon Simpson

Excellent service. Delicious food. Includes pop and tea.

Deb

Delicious food and friendly service. Vivian the owner is very friendly and helpful. Best sushi ever!

Nicole Hildebrandt

Pretty decent meal, the miso soup could have used a bit more seasoning to really bring out the flavour.

Joel Weisz

great food, good service! always look forward to come here!

Marie Mosburger

The quality of food is amazing the servers are amazing I've been going here for almost 3 years and it's one of the only places me and my friends love having sushi

Claudia Mesa

Food is delicious , service is fast . Never had an issue in the 2 years I've been going :)

Alannah Stone

Great food with good service, highly recommend to order take out from this restaurant!

HM Stewart

Just ok. The service was fine but could've been quicker since there was only 1 other table of people while we were there. The decor is very bland. The food itself was fine, nothing to get overly excited about though.

Matthew Billard

I like this place a lot. It's not that they have the best, because they don't. It's not that they have amazing ambiance, because they don't. They are just really casual and low price, and accessable, and friendly. I have a good time when I'm here, and I enjoy the food, and leave full. A trip to Asuka always means I'll enjoy my meal, and I'll always have something nice to say about a restaurant that offers that.

Elie Ashton

Amazing taste & quality. Service was quick & friendly. Highly recommended & will definitely be going back! Especially for the mango rolls????

Catalin Patrichi

Excellence in a restaurant for sure.. food quality over the top and service is fast and friendly.. my favourite place to eat!

Maria Miller

Edit: They have since changed the salad to something vegan. If you're a vegan or dairy / egg free be sure to specify that you do not want a salad when ordering a combo as it will have a ranch-type sauce on top of it.

Cory St. Croix

I love sushi, and I can say that this place has delivered some awesome tasting sushi. It does take a while for the food, however that doesn't detract from the fact that the sushi is hand-made to perfection.

Alicia Matthews

Decent place to get a sushi fix in St. Thomas. Prices are decent, and food was very good for an all you can eat place. Would definitely go back again.

Trevor D

Great food and service, always friendly. Bit expensive, best to go weekdays during lunch hours.

Ryan Baggs

Amazing service and great quality sushi. Recently ordered two massive separate orders from there and they were quick, correct and amazing. They always remember my spicy mayo on the side, and we’ve never gotten our order incorrectly. Will continue to go back and share my great experiences with others :)

Philippe Chauvin-Michaud

Brutal service. Very very slow and unmanaged. No hostess, only 1 sushi person, 2 people in the back kitchen who would sometimes come out to work the register. Never going there again.

Taylor Bogden

This place is great. Really good selection for all you can eat. 24 bucks for adults and 11-14 for kids. Honestly I don't know how they haven't gone broke.

Tyler Gray

Exciting to know we have such an awesome Restaurant such as the Asuka in St. Thomas. The food is amazingly good and well priced. The staff are absolutely wonderful. You just have to try this place.

Kane Hillman

Party tray was a hit! So many yummy options. Very nicevtray, great food, good orice and lots of wasabi and soya sauce

Lerie Lewis

This place is so good. My husband and I go at least once a month. The service is great and the food is amazing. Always fresh. I recommend this place to all my friends and family.

Lisa Hamith

Only sushi place in St. Thomas. It's great as long as they are not crazy busy.

me me

Bit pricey on weekends but good fast service and good food

Jeffy B

The only place in St. Thomas to get sushi but you won't be disappointed with the quality of the food here. It is all you can eat style with a bigger selection available for dinner.

Pyro the Trucker

I love this place the staff service and sushi are great. The price is right for all u can eat and certain beverages are included in the price as well. We eat here 3-4 times a month. Highly recommend!

Jasmine Karl

Very Slow and inattentive service. Had to remind server for drinks multiple times. Appetizers were very good as where most of the rolls, how ever the Beef Terriyaki was horrid and Unagi was nothing to write home about. Not sure if it was an off night or if this is the norm?

c morgan

Seems like this place went downhill. We where there for an hour and fourth five minutes. It seems like they changed/ cheapend the rolls. Red and black dragon where diffrent. Kamakachi roll was so small compared to what I remember. The table next to us ordered after us and got their food before us. We finally got our food but it was 1/4 of what we ordered,then twenty min later we got another 1/4 and the pattern continued with very small portions. It was just frustrating, we left irritated and unsatisfied. Asuka used to be my fav sushi place but I'm not going back.

Kate P.

Dinner

Janice Greenfield

Absolutely fantastic food at an affordable price. The staff are very friendly and courteous.

Ryan Augustynowicz

High quality and delicious food. The hot food is the best for any sushi place I have ever tried. The sushi and sashimi is also incredible. Fast customer service in busy days.

Drew Pacheco

The sushi here is incredible! I have been looking for a good sushi place for years since my favorite place in London closed, and Asuka is it! The rolls are so well made and the amount of rice on them is perfect! The fish is always generous and tasty. The all you can eat is handy but I've also gotten taken out from here too and it was beautifully packed and delicious. I also love that I dont have to go to London for sushi!

Rick Sikora

The fish dishes were okay, but not up to the quality Asuka used to have. All of the beef dishes were over cooked and full of gristle. The Maki rolls were nice, but the hand roll wasn't that good. I think I'll drive to London next time for sushi. Shame, I used to really like Asuka.

Jade

We had a very lovely lunch for my son's birthday. Sushi was great and recommend the other dishes as well. My son is a Japanese food fan and he loved it very much. Waitress was wonderful and we were mesmerized by the chef making all of the food. He was great to watch.

Danielle Ashley

Great deals on bento boxes. Friendly staff. Nice quiet peaceful environment. Reasonably priced beer.

Nathan Koleman

Loved it. Will be going back for sure. Coconut shrimp is amazing!

Alex F

Food is amazing! Waitress Vivian is super helpful when asked the difference between the rolls and offers great service.

Connie Russell

Better sushi than anywhere in London. Great prices and the best service in town.

Bradley Taylor

good sushi, and great workers .definatly recommend but service was kind of slow

Shawn Southern

Really good all you can eat sushi and the staff is okay.

Ken Nash

Sushi quality is a notch lower than some more popular places but still tasty. The menus don't say what ingredients are in the rolls.

Daiane Oliveira

Wonderful food, everything fresh. Freshly fried and very tasty. Clean place, excellent service. I loved

Jim H

Do not fall into that trap. Stay away!!!!!!! ... First I would like to say the food is not bad but it is really disappointing when you see the restaurant was dirty and grimy. Staff very unfriendly no smile, not professional at all . Plates , spoon & napkins very disgusting a hair was found in my soup. I would be very careful eating there specially if you care. About food quality, ang serving unhygienic foods, their kitchen also too dirty,

Jim A

I'm definitely a regular...the chicken teppanyaki is so damn good.

D Wagner

Love love love, great food, lot of choices, great service.

A Vivero

This place is amazing the food is excellent with outstanding Service this is definitely the place best to go

Camila Restrepo

Our family loves to go here. Great food, great staff!!

Jeff B

Very unhappy google said open went to the doors and sign says open was very disappointed cause I drovd from tillsonburg.

Jon Park

Amazing as always ! Great service. Highly recommend.

James Kicksee

I used to live in Japan, and eating the food here took me back. The food is amazing, & the service good (we did have to wait to be seated, but they were busy and we were acknowledged more than once). As a first time visitor, I would have appreciated photos of all of the dishes, or at least the lesser-known ones (acknowledging that plastic food displays like in Japan would be going too far for St Thomas!) Overall, we had a very pleasant experience and are looking forward to many more visits.

Mira B

Excellent food. Good wait times. Fast and kind service

Brandon Truong

Delicious food. Fast and good service. They have a variety of items, from tempura, rolls, tepanyaki, soups, etc. Highly recommended

John Ball

This is a really nice place. We hadn't been before, though it has apparently been there for quite some time. The food was really good and the staff was really friendly and fast.

Joyce McCarthy

Very clean, friendly staff , very fresh and delicious food .

Ryan Frostad

Love the all you can eat buffet always wish they had a better salad bar

Catherine Doyle

I like.... Lots of variety but most of the foods I don't know what is that. Family atmosphere.

Justin Boyer

Absolutely amazing food. Fantastic service.

Brandito Silva

Best sushi I have had in any place, better than all London area sushi places. Love it.

Jeanne A

Good food! Prices were a little higher than what we are used to paying for similar food, but overall good.

Michelle Massaro

One of my favorite places to eat! Service is polite and welcoming with generous portion sizes and excellent bang for your buck. No reason to travel to London for good sushi when Asuka is right here. The atmosphere may not be as "fancy" as bigger places but I'd rather have good food than anything else.

Bez Peters

Sub-par quality and very unattentive staff. Don't waste your time or your money. Go to London.

Amy Toth

Staff really friendly, generally good service, love the sushi

Michelle Rickard

Look forward to reading here every time in in the area. Great food great service.

Sydney Cheverie

Great variety of interesting food, everything was delicious!!! Great service!!

Carlos Burgos

Been coming here for yrs and i never get sick of it love the staff very friendly great food. I love the spicy crispy crab rolls and the asuka shrimp. I love that we have this place in st. Thomas

Morgaine Halpin

Amazing food great staff family style service great for a group or just for two

Justin Klassen

Good food, the young lady that served us was very pleasant and attentive.
