Wasabi 54 take out is a literal joke. The phone rings busy 50 times before you get through and food is never ready when they you. Not a place i would ever go to again.

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!

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.

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.

Maybe it was just today, order a double order of noodles instead of rice with my meal. They were beyond sweet, no balance ,disgusting, I didn’t even touch them.after disgusting couple of bites I never touched them again, when the waitress came back to the table and the plate having 75% of its food, not eaten ,did not even ask me if anything was wrong, My meat was supposed to be medium, was overcooked also super chewy but I was hungry so I ate that. I think I may have to pass o wasabi 54 from now on really Could not recommend them to anybody, The restaurant did look nice, however

I love Wasabi! Their sushi is so good, and so easy to call in your order to pick up in their window! I also love their Habachi meals. You get plenty of food when you get their Hibachi meals, plenty for left overs.

I was planning on leaving a bad review because of an order that wasnt made quite right however once I called the service team was willing to resolve the issue and they replaced the order. The food came out exceptionally better the 2nd time and renewed my interest in wasabi sushi rolls. Thanks for the excellent service

I appreciate the service and cleanliness of Wasabi 54. The double portion size was great for me as a business traveler who didn’t want to food prep in my hotel room. That said, the hibachi was not good.

The sauce was overly sweetened to the point that I could barely taste other ingredients. I was also told that the restaurant uses pre mixed vegetables for hibachi and there is an up charge to add specific vegetables. Unfortunately, this mix was about 50% potatoes. The chicken appeared to be pre cooked white meat that had sauce added at the last minute. The soup that came with my hibachi was basically dark soy sauce with hot water. (The server was really nice and she tried to help me with the potato issue but ultimately this is a problem of poor menu design)

I understand that restaurants are dealing with high ingredient costs these days. That said, i think it is possible to improve the food and that customers would accept slightly higher prices/longer cook time for a better product, instead of a hibachi vegetable plate that is 50% potatoes and 25% onions. Even the soup could be improved with something like dashi powder or pre-packaged miso paste.

TLDR nice atmosphere and service but food needs improvement.
