Asahi Japanese Steakhouse — Restaurant in Jackson

Ok we will start where it began me and my wife made a reservation on google for 530 and wearrive at the restraunt for the host at the door to inform us that google reservations isnt working right for them so we are gonna have to wait 30 mintutes well we decided to wait well they end up seating us with 8 other people around a very small hibachi flat top nobody could move without bumping someone else our server brought everyone their soup and salad we will begin with the soup the soup was basically beef both that had been salted to the point that it tasted like sea water with two tiny slivers of mushroom and green onion i dont think anyone finished it the salad was soupy where they cleaned the vegetables but didnt dry them the dressing was a ginger dressing but was very gritty me and my wife also ordered sushi with our meals i ordered the Philadelphia roll and her the california roll her sushi wouldnt stay together at all and mine they put advacado in it instead of cucumber for some reason and the advacado was brown and mushy instead of green Now on to the main meal the steak was a little underseasoned but over all it was good juicy and tender the shrimp was very flavorful and juicy the rice was basic fried rice but good and the vegetables we grilled but not overcooked and had alot of flavor

The chef was very professional and entertaining and seemed to care kept asking everyone if everthing was good as he was cooking the next dish and waited before leaving the table to make sure everything was good and the right thing

Our server was wonderful she kept on top of everything from keeping everyones drik full to making sure unneeded dishes were removed to...

First time here on the hibachi side. It was just my wife and myself, so we were seated to wait for someone else to come in since we were there when they opened. A Christmas Party came in that had more than one section would seat, so three from their group came to our section which was next to where the rest of the group was. We had a GREAT waitress! When I asked about one of the sauces, she had the answer instantly. She told us that their servers were encouraged to try everything on the menu and get familiar with it. Nice!! When our Chef came out, we saw instantly that he was gonna be great! ... we also saw that our 3 dinner guest were not. One couldn't stay off his phone and the other 2 may as well been somewhere else, neither of them ordered from the hibachi menu. To spite their "lack of cooperation", our Chef did a excellent job! My favorite part is when he called the other rude customer out for being on his phone :) Our Chef gets a perfect 5!! He was very well prepared and our food was excellent. He put on a great show and had several little funny moments, to spite our other guest. If I could recommend anything, it would be to go with a group that wants to have a good time! We will be back and will take someone with us next time. This trip was a last...

For Dine-in, this is my favorite sushi spot in Jackson. The waiting area and bar area have nice leather couches and televisions to keep you entertained while you wait to be seated. The Ultimate roll is to die for, and I have yet to find a roll I don't like, otherwise. The Sushi Side, as they call it, is pretty straightforward, with the sushi chefs preparing your sushi at an open counter, and the servers bringing it to your table not far from the chef themselves. The hibachi experience is fun, the chefs are entertaining and skilled, and you can tell that they rehearse their performances. The steak is amazing, the seafood is pristine, and the chicken tastes delicious. The miso soup and salad they bring to you before the chef begins his art are wonderful! The only thing keeping this from being a 5 star review, is that during the 15 to 20 minute window where the hibachi chef is preparing your food, if you have anything other than water or fountain drink, it is near impossible to get a drink, without leaving the table and asking for one. I recommend getting a glass of water with your wine, beer, or spirit, just in case you happen to finish it during the...
