A Mod Nod to Pan-Asian Fare

Austin Powers would love Asia Nine.
The flashy interior of the nearly 300-seat Pan-Asian restaurant in Penn Quarter features splashes of glass tiles, a bright red sushi bar, a steel “waterfall” by the bar and bright colors on almost every wall.
The menu nods to Thai, Japanese, Chinese, Vietnamese and Korean cuisines. There’s Tom Yum, the aromatic Thai lemongrass soup, Japanese sushi, steamed Chinese dumplings, vegetables wrapped in thin Vietnamese rice paper for the Garden Rolls and sizzling strips of steak served with a tangy Korean barbeque sauce.
Mixed into the traditional Asian dishes are playful combinations. The sushi list – with its Biden Vice Presidential Roll of crab meat, cucumber, pickled ginger and chili bean sauce and Seafood Dynamite Roll that’s topped with a scallop, shrimp, and crab mixture – is particularly creative.
Throw in strong cocktails, including several in neon shades of pink and blue, and one thing is clear…
It’s groovy, baby. Yeah.
Highlights
- The beer list includes more than the ever-popular Sapporo. You’ll also find Orion, made in Okinawa, Harbin, the oldest lager from China, and the South Korean Cass.
- The restaurant offers more than 30 sakes, including several award winners like Hakushika Junmai Ginjo.
Good to Know
- The restaurant features Happy Hour Monday-Friday from 4:30-8pm, Saturday from 3-6pm and all day Sunday.
- Craving Asia Nine at home? The restaurant delivers.
