This is one of my favourite places for take out. I have never had a bad meal here.
I agree with some other reviewers on slow service at times — however it’s a family business and its understandable that they can’t hire an army of waiters. On those extremely busy nights even the cooks help bring out the food and they are always friendly. They really try hard…
I prefer take out since I’m pressed for time and sitting in such a small space leaves my clothes smelling of tempura :))

Always dependable. This is our local favourite Japanese in Bloor West Village. Street parking limited before 6pm.

This is one of our regular sushi places in the neighbourhood. We usually do take out but it’s not a bad spot to dine in if you don’t mind the slowish service. I like how private each table is and the décor is decent. However, the bathrooms could use some updating.
The sushi here is always fresh and decently priced. They have lots of vegetarian sushi options and creative maki choices which I appreciate! Definitely a good place to go if you’re looking for variety and consistently good food.

Fresh and delicious. We ofter prefer for take out as the restaurant is small and you can not seat a group larger than 6 together. The owner appears to take great pride in the freshness of his fish and you can generally taste the quality. Another downfall is that they do not serve wine. Only beer and sake.

I love their rolls. Not too big, not too much rice and good ingredients. Convenient location as well.

One star might seem extreme, but this place — despite the decent sushi — has awfully slow and oblivious service. My bf and I waited for a half hour without acknowledgement by their sole waitress. They give preference to takeout orders and ignore those who take the time to walk inside. We ultimately chose to leave. Take your customers for granted, and your success won’t last forever. They’ve certainly lost our business.

Tasty and reliable sushi in Bloor West Village. I always order the double salmon roll — it is my husband (and kids’!) favorite roll!

If you are looking for «okay» sushi as a quick meal than sure. But the sushi here is really not the best in the area. I am not a fan of their California rolls since they mince the crab meat and they taste funny. There are much better spots such as Yumi down the street on bloor or even better SUshi Place at Keele and Bloor. I only grab sushi from here if I don’t feel like going a bit further down bloor and I need to grab a quick bite. Prices are pretty cheap though!

Maybe this is because I’ve had superb quality sushi but this sushi restaurant is horrible. I don’t know about these great reviews to be honest. I ordered the spicy tuna and not only was the rice not fresh, the tuna tasted weird. Definitely not going back.

I’ve been coming to ASA for the last 6 years, and I have to say it is my favourite sushi place. My friends and I come here often and the service is great! The main guy who makes the sushi is so nice and friendly and the waitresses are all nice as well.
I always order the deep fried california roll, dynamite roll, and the crunch roll with their spicy mayo (soooo good). It’s not all you can eat, and it’s a little pricey if you order multiple kinds of sushi, but it is definitely worth it! Even ran into Fefe Dobson there once!
I highly recommend this place, and it’s very convenient because it’s right outside Jane station.

I’ve been going to Asa for quite a few years now it’s a little gem in this neighborhood. The staff are really friendly and so are the owners. I love their maki rolls especially Jane and Bloor roll! So good. Their sashimi is always fresh and delicious when I go. I think the prices are good for what they give. The bigger maki rolls are HUGE compared to the ones downtown for a decent price.

I’ve been going to ASA for about 8 years now and I’ve never had a bad experience. They’re maki rolls are delicious, and I love their spicy mayo. During the winter, I’ve always had a complimentary miso soup, and green tea. I love that they flake their crab for the California rolls. Whenever friends come from out of town, or I’m meeting my cousin for dinner — ASA is our destination! LOVE Thomas and his staff :)

My husband and I have been going to ASA since we moved into the neighbourhood (2007). We have never had a bad experience here. We have brought many friends and family to this restaurant and many agree that they are one of the best restaurants around. The food is amazing and the owners are the friendliest people! As regulars, we have occasionally received little extras on the house. This little acknowledgement goes a long way! They really know how to run a business. Highly recommended :)

The maki rolls are pretty good. The «bloor and jane» roll is quite delicious. The price is a bit higher than downtown Toronto sushi but if you are in the area it’s one of the best I’ve had around here.

This place is kind of mediocre. The sashimi cuts are pretty generous, but the prices are very high compared to what you can get at other places in the city. ASA charges about as much as, say, Wow Sushi, but is much less creative and has less variety in the kinds of fish you can get. Service is fine, not great. My teacup was empty for more than half of the duration of my meal.

Was going to give this place one star because they served me spoiled tuna, but as I was treated well and discounted the offending item they get a gold star.
Seriously though, with all the great reviews I was very disappointed with this place. The sauce they’re using for their spicy rolls is disgusting, and the rolls themselves are remarkably small. The worst part? They’re actually a bit pricey. So by putting themselves in the same ballpark as, say, Raaw Sushi, you’d expect a lot better.
I’ve had a lot of sushi in Toronto, and this is by far some of the worst.

Love ASA Sushi! :)
Yes it is extremely handy to my neighbourhood but it is actual one of the best sushi place I’ve ever been to! I bring all my friends here and everyone loves it!
Great selection with unique fusion rolls (try Jane and Bloor roll!), fresh and tasty sushi, friendly staff (even the chef smiles and says hi), nice atmosphere, good prices and if you want take out they are quick.
The only negative is that they are not open on Mondays!

Great variety, keeping up with the nouveau sushi menus of interesting and varied maki rolls. The sashimi pieces are almost too big, but very fresh.
I addition to sushi they also have a small Udon soup menu, and provide some alternatives for those who don’t care for raw fish (chicken katsu, beef teriyaki).
The décor is plain, Japanese style, no frills. Family run, and very friendly.

Adorable small restaurant at the corner of Jane and Bloor.
Easily accessible since it’s across the street from Jane station.
Very friendly staff that never fail to have a smile on, and the owner can be found behind the bar rolling the sushi himself.
The prices are super affordable which is a plus given the neighbourhood.
I always order either the bento lunch boxes or their deep fried california rolls.
