Came here on a Tuesday night for dinner and it was packed! We were seated quickly. Manager came over and took our drink order right away, as she was helping out the waitress. Drinks came out quickly and waitress came over to take our order. We both had the house salad which was great and on the large side, not the typical small soup bowl type salad. Sushi was delicious. Wife was pleasantly surprised to see they had a full page of Gluten free sushi rolls. They also have a full bar with liquor and beer “ not just Japanese brands” and a good wine menu. We were very pleased and would come back. Parking lot is small and is shared with other businesses, so you may have a hard time finding a spot or may have to park and walk, but definitely worth it. We will be back.

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Asuka Asian Bistro and Sushi Bar, a Japanese sushi restaurant that has left an indelible mark on my culinary journey. From the moment I entered, I knew I was in for something special.

One of the top sushi places around. Love the atmosphere. Great sushi and other amazing dishes. Me and my wife switched it up and each tried something different. We both absolutely loved the dishes. Surprisingly, I liked her chicken dish more, and she liked my steak one better. Either way, they we both were delicious.

We had such a nice experience celebrating our Anniversary. Everything was great. I had chirashi and hubby had donburi. BEAUTIFUL presentation. We each had a roll to go with it. My cocktail was amazing. We look forward to trying their Ramen and Bento boxes. Prices were very reasonable.

Now this place has some good food! Wife and I went here on a Friday evening, minimal wait time of about 15-20 minutes. Once seated the staff was great and the food was excellent. Will be coming back for sure!

Asuka is the best place for Sushi in the North Raleigh/Wake Forest area. Their spicy beef noodle soup is amazing as well, it has the perfect balance of heat, it’s just spicy enough to where it is still enjoyable. Not pictured is the Volcano roll, it’s not only a tasty roll but also a fun spectacle for table (it comes out flambeau). It can get busy at times and you might have to wait a little while but it’s worth the wait. The service is always pretty good, naturally it gets a little slower when it’s a full house but that’s to be expected anywhere. I’ve been coming here for a while and still continue to come back even after trying other sushi spots around town.

My wife and I have lived here and have probably driven past this restaurant a thousand times. We decided to check it out on a Sunday afternoon and were absolutely delighted with it! Our server Alice was great! We weren’t rushed and the food was fantastic. I had the spicy beef ramen and my wife had the 1000 Dreams sushi. The manager Sean is great! He obviously cares very much about the experience. 10/10. Definitely going back.

When I lived in Wake Forest, Asuka was by far my favorite sushi spot. They give you lots of amazing food options without overwhelming you. The fish always tastes so fresh, and the ambiance is uniquely appropriate for lots of occasions. It’s cozy enough for a family meal, romantic enough for a date, and the takeout service is quick and easy.
