Not a bad place but not necessarily a keeper for me. It helps there’s parking nearby and the service is very good, as well as clean inside. The atmosphere is comfortable and a nice setting to go with someone. However the food is average tasting. The miso soup is like most restaurants so not standout. The salad was a little disappointing. The bowls have been sitting in a refrigerator for awhile, which is obvious because the lettuce has no crunch or crispness to it. And the dressing needs work. I ordered yakisoba and found it slightly on the sweet side, and had no ginger, which helps make yakisoba pop. My wife had the unidon, which she enjoyed (but I suspect not strongly), and my son had the poke bowl, which he said was ok, but not a keeper.
Try spicy ramen!! It is soooo hot and soooo good! This is my favorite place for sushi. The place ia nice, staff friendly, food is awwwwesome! Ordered two days in a roll! Must try spicy ramen!
Volcano, dynamite and tiger rolls are cooked. If you don't like raw sushi, dynamite is delicious and spicy. Loved it. Didn't like the salad that comes with it though.
If you are by the Arlington Courthouse area and you are looking for a satisfying lunch be sure check this place out ! I got the Salmon Teriyaki box ! Soup and salad are included for a reasonable price !!
Food and drink was great but service could of been better. I know everyone have different experiences but I ordered the melon something alcoholic drink, sushi rolls, and shumai and they were all delicious. Everything was good in my books. I only feel like the service could been a little better. Also miso soup was delish and the salad not too big fan of the sauce but it was included.
Nice place to eat sushi. Appearance may differ from the menu because of color but still tastes great. Friendly staff. Better to eat there than to take it home.
Located in the Courthouse plaza, Asahi has good sushi at reasonable prices.
I got takeout here as they don't have outdoor seating, and the sushi was really good and service was fast. The udon here was also really good, I was surprised. I only wish they didn't put broccoli in the vegetable udon and used another vegetable instead.
I think I found my new favorite sushi place. Sushi Rock probably has the best sushi but it's just too expensive. I would rather go here. If I had to stack rank preferences for local sushi in Arlington (specifically Clarendon/Courthouse strip)

The presentation of the rolls are really nice! Most are served on their boards and plated well. We came for dinner on a Tuesday night and were seated right away. I ordered the tiger roll and pacific roll. Both were good but my favorite was the tiger roll. Loved the shrimp tempura and it was very flavorful and filling. The signature rolls come with 8 pieces each.
Service was good and our food came out quickly after ordering. You also get complimentary miso soup and a house salad with your order. Overall a great sushi stop.
