Zee was an amazing chef! He made the experience so much better. His jokes and persona was genuinely so fun! I’ll be requesting his services from now on when eating here!

Sunday night, trying to look for a nice and quiet sushi place.
Oysters are good, a bit too small
Got diarrhea from the mixed nigiri, fish not fresh
Tempura batter is a bit off
Nice and friendly, our server is the best!

I use to consider wasabi one of the best places for sushi in town.
The taste and quality were good, but the sizes have changed drastically.
We use to be served the entire roll but now only get 6 piece for the same price.
The dishes have changed as well, fried rice was oily and heavier than normal almost mushy, the beef teriyaki was rubbery, chicken was dry, but salmon was good.
Service was good and attentive but doesn’t make up for the lack of quality on the food and small portions of sushi.

Had one of the best meals ever this past Saturday at Wassabi. We were celebrating and indulging in the freshest, most flavorful rolls, sashimi, tempura, and more. Every bite was a knockout.
After I paid, I accidentally left my wallet behind, but Wassabi kept it safe for two whole days. Huge shoutout to the incredible owner and staff, and a special thank you to Destiny for personally returning it. That kind of integrity and care is rare.
If you're looking for the best sushi in Fresno, go to Wassabi. If you want an unbeatable atmosphere, go to Wassabi. And if you want a restaurant you can truly trust, Wassabi is on fire!

It was just ok. Very expensive without any really excitement. The service was great however.

This place is racist or at the very least prejudice and discriminatory …which I do not say lightly because I’ve never said this about a restaurant but what other explanation is there when one experiences the following…
We walk in (party of four-we are POC) sign ourselves in…and then different groups of white people having a party of 2 or 3 come in after us but are getting seated before us, my husband got up to see if maybe they were getting seated because their party was smaller but then saw that they were getting seated in tables meant for four people and told me, I think we are being discriminated…At first I thought, that can’t be, and said to my husband, “maybe they have a reservation.” So we still sat their waiting to be called to be seated but then saw the same thing happen again, a group of white people walk in, are greeted, and then got seated. My husband got up and went to speak to the hostess (tall white blond woman) if those people had a reservation or the people before them, and she said no, and he told her, well we’ve been waiting for a long time now and have not been seated. The response was that they had forgotten about us …how can you forget about a group of four people sitting right in front of you? We had our two young girls with us who are pretty friendly and were actually interacting with all the white people that got seated before we did and by default we also interacted with them because they told us how cute our girls are…so how is it that the hostess could see them and not us?
When I spoke to the manager he said the same thing, that the hostess must have forgotten about us, and I asked him, “isn’t the purpose of list that you had us sign into so you know who came first and not forget about people?” He responded, “yes, but that maybe the hostess thought that we were part of a large group.” Why is there an assumption that we are part of a larger group? I ask the manager, “but you have a list that you’re supposed to use and follow, so shouldn’t you call the name of the person (in my case, Kenia party of four) and when you call them, then you can see if whole party is there or not, or if they are waiting for more people?” He responded yes, but that it wasn’t discrimination, that it was a mistake. This manager had nothing good to respond to us but to make excuses for the terrible behavior, he didn’t even think to say, “I’m so sorry we will do a better job at training our staff” if his excuse was that what occurred was due to incompetence…I actually said to him that they need to do better in training their staff if this is supposed to be an oversight …because truly, how is it that you have a group of 4 people sign in and “forget about them” when they are right in front of you, and then proceed to sit a bunch of of other groups of people (that come in after them) before them? Believe me, we don’t have any special powers to make ourselves invisible for the hostess to not be able to see us sitting right in front of her to forget about us.
We wasted 30 minutes of our lives there and when we spoke up got nothing but excuses and no remedy or any attempt to make amends for what we had experienced.
Glad to say we did not wait any longer wasting our time to give our money to a restaurant that immediately sees white people and sit them, even though a POC were there before them. Like I told the manager, we had seen their restaurant and were really looking forward to eating there but we will not give our money to a restaurant that treats people in this manner and when given the opportunity to do something about the situation, they opt to make excuses that make no sense, don’t make any attempt to make amends or even think proactively of what to do to make sure this doesn’t happen again.

Very cold service. Had the same bad experience twice. Went for our daughter’s birthday and despite knowing it was a special occasion, the chef didn’t even acknowledge us while paying full attention to the family sitting next to us. Discriminatory behavior. The Manager said she will get back to us but it’s been 8 months. Sad and gloomy atmosphere. No doubt it’s always empty when you go there. AVOID at all costs!

Wasabi on fire has the full range of dining experience from teppanyaki to sushi and lots of tempura. We were there for a lunch group. Their lunchbox sets are more than you can eat.
