Food is amazing, fantastic sushi! Really good service! My favourite place in Orewa. The best ratio of value and price! I can highly recommend that place.

Great sushi (somewhat important). Friendly staff. Yummy miso soup. They have soy sauce on the tables which is something I look for in a sushi place. Price is quite good. Afterward go get a coffee from Coasties!

Love the food here. We often come in for lunch and get the chicken teriyaki bento box. It's a massive complete meal. When being really piggy we get salmon sashimi too which is always beautiful and fresh.

It's a little erratic when ordering which is the only thing that stops us giving 5 stars. It would be nice when seated to eat in if they took your order from your table so you weren't in the way of the sushi takeout queue.

Delicious & fresh sushi! The chilli chicken don is my favourite. This place is perfect for a full sit down meal or just a quite bite. Lovely accommodating staff too

Great prices for the quality and quantity. Been there every week for 4 weeks in a row. Great service and parking is quite convenient. Will definitely keep going. Favorite place to go in Orewa as of now.
Update: been going here for months and it's consistently impressed

Always come for the salmon sashimi Don here. Yummy mixture of raw fish with rice, Apple, cabbage and avo. Chillies sauce is to die for. Always see them busy at lunch with there takeaway sushi options too.

Asahi is my local sushi shop which is great news for me.

The sushi here is amazing - great flavours and really well made. They also have a tasty range of extras too like chill chicken skewers, deep fried goods, crumbed prawns and veg patties. Plus the wasabi here is very good.

They also do delicious meals if you are dining in. The bento boxes are next level, as are the tempura vegetables, noodles and katsu dishes. The service is friendly and the food is delicious - would definitely recommend this place!

What this restaurant lacks in decor and size it more than makes up for in amazing food. It's not somewhere I'd recommend for a romantic date, but for a delicious & affordable dinner or lunch, or to grab some sushi on the run, it's great.  The staff are always friendly, the menu has loads of choice, and the food is fresh and delicious! It's kid friendly, with a menu that has something for all ages and not a chicken nugget or french fry in sight!!

Went here with 2 small children in the school holidays for dinner. A smallish room, with tables quite close to each other. The service was great. The food was cooked to perfection. We ordered chicken katsu, sushi for one child, and chilli beef don. The dumplings and spring rolls kept the kids happy until the mains arrived which wasn't long. Only disappointment was they didn't have one brand of beer on the menu that we wanted.

Came here yesterday for a takeaway order of Sashimi Combo, which cost $30.50.

The food was well presented with plenty of fresh fish.

The fitout is a bit warn and could do with a spruce up.

I often go to Asahi for Salmon Sashimi Don. Best sashimi don in town. Their salmon is always fresh and the chilli sauce is really nice too. Reasonable pricing as well. Definitely going back for more.

We are locals and have been to Asahi many times. The food is great and very affordable. Don't come here if you like a fancy fit out, this is a great little cheap eat with fantastic food and is very popular. The staff are always very friendly.

This is our go-to on the coast. Prices are good, and the meals are delicious! Our standard order is the chicken katsu don which my partner orders with double meat and it is delicious! Also the best sushi in orewa!

We got dumplings and chicken teriyaki. Fast service, descent food. Very small portions for the price you pay. I'm sure there is cheaper around with better portions.

I got take-out sushi for lunch today and really enjoyed it. Salmon nigiri, fish egg sushi was great. I had pork katsu rolled sushi which was great and I usually find fried food sushi dry but this was moist and tender. I didn't pay attention to the hygiene rating but the food I chose was satisfying and I didn't get crook so I was happy

Just come back from a quick meal at Asahi.

I must commend it. The food is consistently good, service cheerful.

Overall a great experience. Gave it four stars as is really a cheap and cheerful not a fine dining but otherwise good in all respects.

My wife and I eat regularly at this restaurant. We like the food, and the staff are friendly. The atmosphere is not as nice as in the Hayami Japanese Restaurant and it is a little more expensive than the Sushi takeaway place around the corner next to the library. But there is one drawback that they'll have to do something about: the dirty toilet, diluted soap and disgusting doors leading to the loo. It doesn't look like they've ever been cleaned. It's sad because otherwise it's a nice place to eat.

I love this food, we got a lot of it as we expected it to be smaller portions, it was a lot bigger then we expected. It was quite cheap and it was refreshing after a long day in the car, coming back from Taupo. The place is furnished, and looks gorgeous. The food is presented well and is also amazingly delicious. 34/10 would DEFINITELY go again.

Incredibly delicious dishes but I wish the kitchen was open more often, we’ve tried 5 times now to get a hot meal and the kitchen always seems to be closed. People like to have lunch before noon if they have strange office hours, starting the kitchen at noon is a bit odd. Otherwise love it!
