“My son and I ate here for lunch and he loved it. He’s been asking to go here for some time. He loves sushi and I knew he would enjoy it. Our waitress whose name was Faith, I believe, was also super sweet too. Nice little place and atmosphere and great food! We will definitely be back. He wants to try the whole menu.“

“Wabi Sabi is truly a standout. Every visit is a reminder of how great food, thoughtful presentation, and warm service can come together to create something special. Their commitment to quality is clear in every dish — fresh ingredients, vibrant flavors, and a menu that balances creativity with tradition.

As someone who works closely with restaurants through Sanwa Food Group, I see firsthand who takes pride in what they serve. Wabi Sabi does just that. They treat their guests like family, and it shows in the care they put into both the dining experience and their business relationships.

If you're looking for consistently excellent food and a welcoming atmosphere, Wabi Sabi is a place you’ll keep coming back to.“

“Thai 4 You 3824 Murrell Rd., Rockledge, FL 32955 4 Stars With 59 years under my cyclopean belt, I've seen food phases come and go. Some last and eventually become part of the dining landscape, ie, Frozen Yogurt. Thai food has been around for a long time, but it seems to be getting a steroid shot in the keister as Thai joints are popping up with such frequency that you can often find them next to each other and across the street! More often than not, these are also hybrid eateries that serve Thai food and Sushi. I've reviewed more than a handful of these types of restaurants. It is not common to find one that is dedicated to only Thai food. Thai 4 You, corny name and all, is such a place. I was greeted warmly and seated immediately. Almost as soon as I sat down, Adam approached my table and informed me that he would be my waiter for the repast. Adam has a great personality and is a pro all the way. He is also the owner. I asked Adam for the Thai 4 You Special and some Chicken Green Curry (my Thai food test dish). Before too long, and again, I do time these things, Adam returned with our Thai fare. The aromas caressing my olfactory nerve made it difficult for me to snap the before pictures, as all I wanted to do was scarf down. However, like Adam, I too am a professional and was here for a job, not to stuff my pie hole. As you can see, everything looks delicious; now, let's see if the looks are deceiving. My first taste was of Adam's Thai 4 You Special. This is a delectable dish of stir-fried shrimp and beef tossed with a special house Thai sauce, served over a pile of mixed vegetables. The shrimp was juicy and tender, the beef was cooked to perfection and the veggies were delicious. All in all, this was a better-than-average representation of Thai cuisine. Truly tasty on the tastebuds. While the Green Curry sauce was not as creamy as I usually receive in other Thai places, the flavors were definitely popping on the taste buds and far above average. I found the chicken to be tender and succulent, while the veggies were cooked to perfection once again. Whoever was operating the wok in the back certainly knew what they were doing. It was obvious that they didn't just wok in off the street. Thai food is known for its spectacular flavor combinations, which often feature a balance of sweet and tongue-blasting hot. Unlike other spicy foods, one never loses the taste to the spice. Adam served up a prime example of this. I found the Green Curry to hit the palate with heat and flavor. I do love me some good Thai food! The Big Boy says, “It's better than your average Thai slop house and if I were in Rockledge hankering for some Thai food, I would make a beeline to Thai 4 You.”“

“The food is always AMAZING! And they give great customer service! They are always so pleasant when I go there. All of these great experiences make me come back for more! Definitely a recommended place to eat!“

“Da Sushi 634 Barnes Blvd., Rockledge, FL 32955 4.5 Stars Yep, I hear ya. Rockledge, FL, is known for many things, but fine dining is not one of them. When Da Sushi came up on my random name generator, I steeled myself for two things: facing down my fear of OTB and strengthening my intestinal fortitude as I was not sure what to expect. My fears were not assuaged as we pulled into the plaza looking for the sign. We couldn't see it, we did however, see the giant dope shop and the wig/weave store inhabiting the strip. All we needed was a Dollar General on the out parcel next to a car wash and we know we are in the boonies of FL. Upon finally spotting the sign for the eatery, I looked at my companion, thinking this was not going to be pleasant. Once we passed the threshold of Da Sushi, we were transported from a dingy strip mall only missing open-air drug sales to a fine dining oasis that is jaw-dropping in its depth and breadth. Seriously, this place was absolutely gorgeous. Kudos to the owner(s) on their decorating aptitude. Jordan is our waiter. Jordan was as reticent as a homunculus in answering my questions on the menu and, quite frankly, was an unpleasant cad. That said, I did put in an order for the Otoro Nigiri (Fatty tuna), Tuna hand-roll and the coup de grace was their $30 roll known as “The Exclusive.” Relaxing while Jordan ran our order in, I took some pics of the place drank in the exquisite decorating, and soaked up the fine dining vibe emitting from the environs. Jordan's return snapped me out of my mindless ruminations and back to the job at hand. I grabbed my chopsticks and proceeded to dig in. First up on the Big Boy's palate was the Otoro. This is one of the top-tier items to be found in any place offering raw fish. It should be fresh, creamy (almost buttery) and practically melt on your tongue. This did all of that and more. This was a superb slice of fish, and it was all I could do to move on; I did eat both pieces, however. I then turned my punctilious palate to my sushi shack barometer, the ever-popular Tuna Hand Roll. For the first time in a long time, this was properly executed and not at all fishy. The last few sushi places were not this fresh. The tuna was a nice shade of red, the rice was perfectly steamed and it was rolled with obvious care and love. Sushi is like Ricky Bobby. If it ain't fresh, it's trash. Sadly, I found myself at the end of my tasty tabi in the Land of the Rising Sun as I faced the last item for today, their Exclusive roll. For $30 bucks, I half expected a “happy ending” but then realized it's this piss-poor economy we are living in and shrugged it off. The roll itself was a happy ending to my taste buds, and it was, like the previous foodstuffs, amazing. Consisting of spicy salmon, spicy tuna, fake snow crab, crawfish salad, cream cheese avocado, and jalapeno all wrapped snugly in soy paper, then fried tempura style, topped with eel sauce, spicy mayo, honey wasabi sauce, masago (smelt eggs), scallions and some crunchy bits. This had it all and then some. What a delectable delight to end my meal. The flavors combined into a wonderful roll. The Big Boy says, “This is a one-stop shopping strip. Buy a wig, get some cheeba and dine on some out-of-this-world salt-water bait!”“

“Hibachi Buffet is a buffet with a good variety of items, tailoring to just about anyone who likes Chinese food. At the time of my visit, Hibachi was not an option but they did have the sushi bar open. The employees are friendly enough, and the atmosphere is above average.

Other than those positives, the water tasted like it was fresh out of the sink, the fountain Pepsi was flat and the food was just about average, with some select options shining above the others.

I would not expect to be blown away but it is about what you can expect from a run of the mill buffet, which isn't bad at all.“
