As far back as 1925, Western pop culture understood the
deliciousness that is Asian food with Eddie Cantor’s Song, “If You Knew Sushi”.
In the 50s, the affection was again revisited in the form of pop music with
“Sushi Q” and the Everly Brothers classic, “Wake Up Little Sushi”. Even more
songs would likely have been written about this fine cuisine if artists through
the years had access to today’s Toronto Deal Ticker from Asahi Sushi: $7.50 for $20 worth of food
at Asahi Sushi ($20 Value)

WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING
“You know how everyone is like "omg i know the best
sushi place." And then you go there and it sucks? Well this
isn't the case here. I go all over the place for sushi, downtown,
scarborough, markham... Asahi is the best tasting sushi period. The
rolls are big, but not too big. If you're eating in, it's quaint and the
staff are nice. Very nice patios (there are two).” – Tre D, Toronto
“Asahi is an authentic little dining room with a large
Japanese/Korean fusion menu that's great for date night. The banquets are
intimate and placed cozily close together. The decor is simple and elegant. The
service is friendly and efficient.
The food comes beautifully plated and in gigantic
portions. My chirashi ($12.95) arrived with a pleasing assortment of fish in
what looked more like a serving platter than a plate. My dinner date's red
dragon roll came in more colourful pieces than I could count on all my little
fingers. The salad was dressed in a most appetizing ginger dressing and the
miso soup featured sliced mushrooms.
Don't forget to grab one of Asahi's handy To Go
menus (with 14 choices starting at $5.95 + even cheaper veggie options) on your
way out. Happy Hour, featuring food and drink specials every day from 3-6pm, is
definitely a good reason to visit as well.” – Angela L, Toronto
