while on a business trip to Louisville, I took three of my kids out to dinner at this restaurant. we had never been here before, but enjoy Japanese cuisine, and I’ve been to a lot of Japanese restaurants over the years. When we first walked in, we questioned our choice of places to eat, as it was small and not very busy. But by the time we had spoken with the staff, we felt so welcomed, and the food was absolutely fantastic. Out of all of the Japanese restaurants we have eaten...

We have been ordering carry out (we eat kind of late) from Asahi for around three years, and have yet to be disappointed. The fish has always been fresh, and dishes consistent.
I have only gotten a quick peek at the dining area. It was cozy from what I recall, and clean looking.
They HAVE run out of our favorite fish a couple times, so maybe don't wait until the last minute like us

Also had the chicken fried rice! Which was also made to perfection.
You can watch them make the rolls. The service and host were amazing the checked in often but not too much where it was overwhelming.
Recommend very strongly
