Greetings Wasabi Bistro,
Please stop putting staples on the bags for takeout. An employee said that they can't tie the bags. Here's a picture of how your bags look when their tied.

Excellent food if you like sushi
We just moved to the Spring Town Area and I ordered to-go for lunch today not expecting much. It was so good!! I didn't get a chance to check out the interior much but my food was absolutely delicious! We will definitely be back. Also- to the restaurant staff- I hadn't used your platform before and I thought the tip was already automatically selected; I realized after I finalized that I did not leave a tip and for that I am sorry....next time when I bring my husband we will make up for that!

Sashimi slices are a bit too thin.

Where I live, there are a lot of wanna be Japanese restaurants. I tried to give them all a chance since I’m all for supporting local businesses. I would, however, drive a bit to get my money’s worth and my cravings satisfied. I’ve eaten on this place to celebrate so many birthdays, anniversaries and even on times when I’m down and I just want to feel good. Any excuse I can think of, if I’m being honest. For the quality and servings you get from this place, the food is very reasonably priced.
This place serves different kind of rolls, sashimi and sushi you can think of, good portions of bento boxes with meat teriyaki’s or salmon, and a very generous family platters to share, with size options good to feed two to 10 people. Last night, me and my hubby opted to order the soft shelled crab as appetizer and the medium shashimi specials. If it’s your first time, a small would be enough for two but since it’s our late lunch and early dinner meal, thus the choice of size. Our tummies and hearts are full after.
When you order a specials, you will get a side of soup, salad, rice and veggie tempura. I definitely recommend eating slow because those will be served way before the sashimi, and you don’t want to be too full too early.
The Medium specials got at least 50 sashimis (10 different kinds/5 of each), seaweed, scallops and some roes. If you come in as a large group, try the XL because those would include a very sweet shrimp. The taste is heavenly, you won’t be able to tell it’s raw at all. Save the shrimp’s head and I’ll tell you why below.
Like always, this place served a high quality sashimi. They were in perfect temp, not cold, not warm. Each one is sliced to perfect size and thinness/thickness. In my previous experience, even with rush hour, that’s always the case. The waiting as they prepare the platter is worth it as each bite is priceless. They were firm but springs back when pressed lightly yet melts in the mouth and never mushy or grainy at all. My hubby likes to dip it on a soy sauce with lots of wasabi while I like it with less of wasabi. There’s a side of pickled ginger to reset the palate also.
If you notice, there’s a fish head on the platter. If it’s available, it is not just served as part of the presentation but can be deep fried and drizzled with teriyaki for consumption. I do recommend taking picture and get it out for frying as soon as you can as deep frying takes a while. They usually serve it after the sashimi so save some rice and a space in your tummy if you want to enjoy the crispy fish. If you had the XL, the shrimp’s head can be deep fried as well.
Enjoy the pictures but nothing beats the real one so if you haven’t eaten in this place, definitely a must try next time you go out.
If you are a large group, go to this place right before opening time coz it can get really busy.

The sashimi platter was great. It came with the fish heads and bones which were deep fried at the end. Sushi roles are fresh as well.

Got the hot sake and dragon, red dragon, and ocean roll. Amazing flavor and quality, fair prices!
Hot sake was testing - it was very strong lol but a nice mouth wash
Love loved the ocean roll - was very fresh and seaweed was perfect. Crunch on the dragon sushi hit.
A really nice dinner or date spot, lighting is a bit bright though.
