Wasabi Sushi Bar -Town & Country

I enjoy Wasabi because the Town and Country location is in a lovey spot, and the restaurant looks and feels nice. The booths are quiet, easy for conversation, and no one is yelling out from the sushi bar. The service is friendly and efficient. I think the sushi, albeit safe, fresh, and trustworthy, is good, but not excellent. Other near-by sushi has a little bit more taste, and a MUCH easier menu, and system, for selection. Wasabi’s menu is complicated, with so many of the items being a combination of California Roll and something else. If I don’t like the ingredients of a California roll, then my choices are narrowed. Also, many of the offerings are spicy. So again, the choices narrow even more. There are fewer basics than other sushi restaurants. Sometimes, I just want tuna rolls, or tuna and avocado, but not cream cheese, or something bizarre such as chili sauce, crunch mix, or something else that doesn’t belong in a sushi roll. I do appreciate the low carb option where cucumber is used as an alternative to rice and seaweed, for customers in need. Overall, Wasabi is a nice place, especially for some place quieter than the normal sushi place, and a little more upscale for business, or otherwise.

This wasabi location is typically our go-to as it is right up the street but no longer. We made a reservation for a date night on open table and when we got there they did not have us in their system. After showing them the reservation on our end, they were less than helpful and fairly rude! They offered no pluton for trying to get us in to the dinning room but we could “just sit in the bar area” if we’d like. No thank you. We went elsewhere and will not be back.

They had a new chef working and he couldn’t make rolls well. They all fell apart.

Hadn’t been for awhile, but dropped in for a quick dinner with an out of town relative. Split a tall boy Kirin and the food: chicken ramen, Wasabi roll and Mr. Kim roll. Best sushi either have had and much better food than the dinner we’d had the night before cooked by a famous local chef in Clayton.

Always enjoy going to Wasabi. It's pretty centrally located, and you can make a reservation if you want. They are always pleasant there and the food is good. It's a nice, casual place to go for sushi, but they also have cooked options. We like to recommend it.
