"The service was amazing and food came out extremely quick, we were in and out in 45 minutes . Prices are very reasonable versus other hibachi restaurants I have been to and the food was amazing!! Me and my boyfriend came in and got crab rangoons as an appetizer, hibachi and sushi. I have to say, it is the best hibachi and sushi that we have ever had. Highly recommend!"

"We came in during a really busy time. Even though it was busy, we still had a great experience. Our server was Lucas and he did a phenomenal job. He had 4 other tables other than us and he still showed fantastic attentiveness. The food was great and came out very quick. This was our first time here and we will definitely be returning and we will ask for Lucas as our server. Great job Wasabi!"

"The best Japanese restaurant in town by far. I got the NY Strip steak Hibachi and my wife got the shrimp and Scallops. The meals were both delicious, flavorful and plenty to take home. Atmosphere was good not a real crowd for a Tuesday night. The hibachi meal contained large portions of fried rice, grilled vegetables, spaghetti noodles and your choice of meat or seafood."

- Ronald M.

"First time dining. I had pepper steak and wife had shrimp hibachi. Excellent food, large portions requiring to go boxes. And the service...5 Star . We lucked and got served by young Kamille who crushed it! Very prompt with a cheerful demeanor and accurate knowledge of the menu. We'll definitely be back. Totally Rotten Timmy Recommended"

"First off fried potatoes in szechuan beef, that was a first in my life. It did not match at all. Service was great and she apparently can't say szechuan. The ginger salad was tasty and enjoyable. The szechuan beef was alright, it upset me stomach a little. It was labeled spicy on the menu but I had to order a side of Suracha."
