It was a thursday evening after work...
Table booked and ready for nice food...
I liked the athmosphere of the place, the red asion colours...
The 3 course menu special is tapa style. Enough for me, maybe not for big eaters...
I was happy with my 2 first choice (the mushrooms dumplings and the ostrich), not that much for the third one (the hake tempura).
The athmosphere started to change from 9:30pm, when more people arrived and the music get loader...
All in all, I enjoyed my evening, but not sure I'll go there again...

I didn't expect much but was pleasantly surprised by the incredible service, food, and atmosphere! Recommended to anyone looking for a vibey, Asian fusion night in town.

"Tapa style Asoka"

9.0 Cuisine 7 | Service 10 | Atmosphere 10

Was disappointed that there was no beef tartar especially since bookings are made so why insufficient stock. The alternative of korean chicken was okay. Ostrich fillet was divine but needed more puree and sauce. Hake Tempura was amazing although tiny portion. I ordered cheesecake for dessert and felt it could have been plated better but it was lovely with that lemon sorbet

It is testimony to our belief in the power of food and music to bring people together. Asoka thrives on the journey of a night – from food to cocktails to late nights under the skylight. As rulers of our petit palace in the city, of diners we have one simple request; come for dinner, stay for drinks.
