Asian Station

The food quality from the get go was lousy. Miso soup with no taste, adorned with enoki mushrooms but without any miso paste. On the maki, the fish in the sushi rolls were fishy and old. Tuna tartar really bad, with cartillage and fibrous meat (as it came from a can). The decent decor is deceiving, as this place has very poor sushi. Never again!

Went there couple of times for lunch, and once for take out, what a disappointment !! The service is pathetic, the staff doesn't really care. Take out is even worse, you stand waiting for food for 30 minutes, and people who have come after you with the same order get their food before you do. I mean, really ! That's like basic stuff that these guys have got wrong. Food quality - not good, don't get the Pad Thai. Overall, I wouldn't go there again.

Folks from my office go to Asian Station regularly, and we find it's everything a decent Midtown lunch place should be and more: varied Asian specialties (Chinese, Thai and Japanese) attractively presented, prepared by people who know their food and reasonably priced. Yes, it's crowded at lunch time, but service is quick and you almost always get in. What's not to like?

My friends and I went for lunch and after we were seated, we had to wait a while for a server to take our order. There were enough wait staff so not sure why there was such a delay. This is not good for people who are on a limited lunch break. Also, the restaurant was too noisy (bad acoustics?) and service was quite slow. The good thing is that we did enjoy our food.

When this place opened up a couple years ago I went regularly b/c the food was tastey, nice atmosphenre and they were reasonably priced for the City. Although the service was never the absolute greatest, they were courteous. Now they seem borderline rude and the portions have become a bit scant. The food still isn't bad but their attitudes have turned me off a bit.

Went to have lunch with my co-worker there today around 12:30. They have 3 people waiting on about 50 and I never received my meal. There was no soup today so they gave us salad instead which was pretty good. The place is small, cramped and the waitress never look up to see if anyone needs something. My co-worker received his meal after a 10 minute wait(rated it a 2.0), and 20 minutes later I still had not received my plate so we left $15 (too much now that i think about it) on the table and left. Looking around, several other people had the same problem

I used to go to Asian Station once a week. Skipped the last month, went today (6/2), what a drop in service. Food was late, hardly any eggplant in dish, hostess seating us was rude. She was looking to cram every table as full as possible, so she denied my request for seating. They sat 7 people at 2 tables (normally seats 4). So tight in there waitress spilled soup on customer. I had to move my table and ask people at next table to move so I could leave the table. It was so tight I knocked a glass off the table. Waitresses looked up, but nobody came over to make sure everyone was ok. It was the same girls running the place, so I'm not sure what's going on. Won't be running back next week.
