About Asparagus

Located at 7876 Broadway in Merrillville, Indiana, Asparagus presents itself as an upscale Asian restaurant, offering a diverse menu of Asian cuisine. While categorized under a Chinese Restaurant platform, Asparagus aims to provide a broader spectrum of Asian flavors to its local patrons.

Customer experiences at Asparagus appear to be varied. One recent review highlighted a disappointing weekday lunch experience, noting a slow seating process despite the restaurant being nearly empty.

This customer also highlighted the generous portion sizes, noting substantial leftovers.

We stumbled upon Asparagus for a weekday lunch, and while it looked promising as an upscale Asian restaurant, the experience fell short. Despite the restaurant being nearly empty, it still took a while for us to be seated, which wasn’t a great start. I ordered my go-to dish, Drunken Noodles, expecting the bold, spicy flavors it’s known for—but unfortunately, it was completely bland and lacked any spice. Overall, we were very disappointed with our food, and it is definitely not worth the price.

AWESOME Food! AWESOME Service! Asparagus is an AWESOME Restaurant! I will definitely be going back! Myself and 5 others went Sunday 11/3/24 at 1pm ish. We had the egg roll platter which was great! My favorites were the chicken egg roll, avocado egg roll and asparagus cheese and bacon egg roll. I had the garlic chicken and vegetables, that came with white rice. It was excellent. I also tried the chicken fried rice and beef fried rice and both were great! I also tried the Chicken Pad Thai and I think that was my favorite! The amount of food you get for the price is worth it. I have enough leftovers for 2 days!!!

Nicely decorated restaurant with good service. The avocado roll was an interesting take, yet quite tasty. The drunken noodles were a mess of tasteless noodles without any Asian spices.

The food was better than expected. The portion size is huge. For the price, I understand why they give you a lot. Plates are definitely sharable. The only water they have is from the tap. We looked at the menu for 35 plus minutes. Nothing on the menu reads good but everyone was pleased. We had a large party as well. The restaurant isn't the best looking inside. The servers were kind and professional. It took a long time for the food to come out. The parking slots tight and it gets full quick. Overall, I would recommend giving them a try and see for yourself.

I enjoyed a delicious meal of crispy fried green beans, sweet pineapple 🍍 with flavorful Cashew Chicken 😋, paired with refreshing virgin Margaritas 🍸. The menu offers fun mocktails and plenty of vegan and vegetarian options too!
