Asuke Sushi — Restaurant in Trafford

What a pleasure! I visited Asuke on a whim before I went to walk the Bridgewater Canal. I was greeted by Evandro who was a great host during my duration there. I was well looked after with some green tea (unlimited), a thorough explanation of the menu and enthusiastically answered my questions in regards to the sushi.

I ordered the miso soup and chicken karaage for starters and following Evandro's recommendations, salmon/tuna nigiri, spicy salmon roll, Asuke special roll and the beef roll.

The miso soup was how it should be whilst the karaage (chicken thigh pieces) had been marinated well, had a lovely golden thin, crisp batter and were delicious. So much that I wish you could buy a KFC bargin bucket size amount of it.

Onto the sushi. The fish tasted excellent and fresh. With both the salmon/tuna rolls pairing very well with the additional ingredients in their respective rolls. The slices for the nigiri were great sizes and the well seasoned rice was nicely highlighted here. Rather surprisingly the beef roll, which I was apprehensive with but damn it worked really well.

Now onto the second best thing, a bonafide bloody Japanese toilet! Just come to use that if you've never been lucky enough to experience it. Absolutely Sensational.

All in all, would I come back? Yeah man, absolutely. Great team doing simply good and delicious things at this independent sushi gaff. A most welcomed part of the...

A last minute decision to eat sushi at Asuke last night as we had been recommended to seek out this little restaurant.

Very cute and well maintained plus a few tiny details which were really great to see - playful chopstick rests on the table, bamboo place settings and even a very clean Japanese style loo!

There were only a few tables taken on our visit but it’s a tiny place with 16 covers so maybe make a reservation at the weekend.

The waitress was helpful but maybe could do with a little more knowledge on the dishes served but this is a minor point.

We opted for a large mixed platter of sushi and sashimi with a request for no meat which was accommodated without any fuss.

We also ate salt and pepper fries with spicy mayo whilst awaiting the platter which I have to say were amazing.

The food was of good quality for an independent and garnished with flowers and seaweed we will return and check out the other dishes as there were also noodles, Ramen and ‘taco sushi’ that caught our eye.

Thank you

Came here with my partner and her family and straight away we were greeted by a very authentic Japanese style dining area and the 2 lovely people that served us. They were very helpful in explaining the menu options and very entertaining throughout the meal also. We ordered the Tokyo platter along with other sushi, gyozas, wings and even sushi tacos. I don’t normally write reviews but I have to say that all the food was excellent, and we just kept ordering more as it was so good, so I had to write something. I highly recommend this for the food, service and just the atmosphere/style as well. Thank you again for having us, will most certainly be coming...
