" I had a lovely dinner at Asuka with some friends, and it did not disappoint! The freshness of the fish was remarkable, and each piece of sushi was truly delicious. The place had a nice ambiance, though it got a bit crowded. I would suggest making a reservation. The service was friendly but not overly intrusive. Overall, a great spot for sushi lovers! " (*Curated Review*)

" I went to Asuka expecting a regular sushi dinner, but ended up having an extraordinary experience! The attention to detail was impressive, especially in the way each dish was presented. The fish was incredibly fresh, rivaling what I had in Japan, and the overall vibe of the restaurant was charming yet upscale. It’s a little on the pricier side, but totally worth every penny for that quality. I can't wait to come back and try more dishes! " (*Curated Review*)

" Honestly, Asuka blew my mind! This is not your typical sushi spot. I tried the omakase, and the freshness of the fish was unparalleled. It took me back to my time in Japan. The staff were engaging, explaining each dish with detail that made me appreciate the craftsmanship behind it. I could have stayed there all night! I highly recommend it to anyone looking for an authentic and memorable dining experience. " (*Curated Review*)

" I recently tried Asuka based on a recommendation from a colleague. Overall, it was delightful! The sushi was fresh, and I really appreciated the authenticity — no Americanized sushi rolls here. Just pure, high-quality nigiri and sashimi. The atmosphere was peaceful and cozy, although it did get a bit busy during peak hours. The service was friendly and attentive throughout our meal. I would highly recommend trying it out! " (*Curated Review*)

" I was at Asuka with a couple of friends and we enjoyed a very homey experience. The owner greeted us heartily and shared some insights about their ingredients. You could really tell how devoted they are to maintaining authenticity — I tried the Toro nigiri, which melted in my mouth like butter. Even the rice was perfectly seasoned, making it a joy with each bite. I’ll definitely be going back soon! " (*Curated Review*)
