“Hands down the best Sushi I’ve EVER had in 40+ years. Can’t wait to go back. 👌“

“I am giving it a 5 because the food flavors were out of this world! Service was awesome and the restaurant was as super cute. My only confusion was the portions, however they were super small plates not really tapas. We left there still kind of hungry and went to another restaurant. If you’re looking for a quick bite, maybe a late night snack, something small this is a your spot!“

“best sushi in ct! amazing food and wonderful family owned business!“

“Great sushi, and the dinner plates are creative and delicious. My favorite Kosher sushi in CT, and better than most places in NYC and Long Island… Easily the best by price.“

“Just had dinner at Sakana. The food and drinks are always delicious, fresh, and fast! Our waitresss was also amazing - very thoughtful, anticipating needs without needing to be asked and so kind to our kiddo- even giving some kids chopsticks to take home. Highly recommend if you haven’t been already!“

“Awesome place! Food was delicious . Definitely going back“

“The food and service were excellent! However, the plastic lids and coated paper boxes the food is served in does not work for me because it’s environmentally unsustainable. The amount of single-use plastics we go through for convenience is doing serious harm to the health of our planet and life on it. I think the food service industry (and customers) can do a lot to change that.

I would also love to see some wild caught fish that is certified sustainable by the Marine Stewardship Council (MSC)!

I had a few questions about this and the chef was very kind to stop and answer them! The sushi was delicious— thank you!“

“Great food! Definitely coming back!“

“Went to Jerry’s last night and I was soooo full because it was sooo delicious I had to come home and get into bed! The salmon is like butta in your mouth! The tuna firm and soft at the same time… and the eel… OMG… hadn’t been there in a long time and it was excellent!!! Fresh & delicious, go and enjoy!“

“Sit at the sushi bar for the best experience ever from amazing sushi masters! Kevin and his team are incredible!!!“

“From the moment you step into Wasabi Sushi Bar on Beale Street, you are welcomed into an ambiance that masterfully blends traditional Japanese aesthetics with contemporary design elements. But the star of my recent visit wasn’t just the impeccably prepared sushi, it was the exceptional service delivered by our server, Meagan. Service can make or break a dining experience, and in this case, Meagan elevated it to new heights. Her knowledge of the menu was commendable. She provided insights into the chef's specialties, gave wonderful pairing suggestions, and had an uncanny ability to anticipate our needs before we even realized them ourselves. It's one thing to be efficient, but Meagan brought a personal touch, ensuring we felt attended to without ever feeling rushed. Every dish we ordered arrived in a timely manner, and Meagan's descriptions of each dish as she presented them added an extra layer to the overall dining experience. She navigated the fine line of being engaging and present without being intrusive, showcasing a mastery in hospitality. It's servers like Meagan who transform a meal from simply eating out into a memorable dining experience. In a city bustling with dining options, it's the quality of service that often stands out, and thanks to Meagan, Wasabi Sushi Bar is at the top of my list for recommendations. If you find yourself at Wasabi, do yourself a favor and request Meagan as your server. Your taste buds will thank you for the sushi, and your overall dining experience will be elevated by her unparalleled service.“

“Very attentive staff! Ate the Nage Yuki Udon! Excellent soup! Teriyaki chicken has a lite sauce with rice. Very tasty. Maki rolls well made and fresh! If you live local or are visiting like us... give this restaurant a try!“

“I messed up. I asked for my money back on the idea that I did not receive an order I clearly made correct but I thought was wrong. So I e had sushi in the past. This is not my first rodeo. Problem is I had regular sushi which were hand rolled which I thought meant the same as “hand roll”. My apologies and biggest mistake ever! So just so everyone understands: hand rolled which is not cut into small pieces and look like a mini gyro funnel but stuffed with rice veggies and seafood meat. Regular roll is with the sushi tool and log rolled and then cut into pieces. I will definitely give this place another try and forgive me for what happened! It was ultimately very delicious and very fresh food! Thank you so much!“

“I recommend everything! My first time there and my experience was out of this world! Incredible food amazing atmosphere and very friendly service. I wasn’t sure what I wanted so they recommended something based on what I told them I liked and they were correct about it! I highly recommend this might be the only sushi place I will go to from now on!! Thank you for such a great experience!“
