If you like sushi this is the place for you but don't expect to have nice ambience and you better bring some money with you!

Just spent 7 minutes on the phone when they put a soup from our order into someone else's bag. The owner/boss lady did her best to misunderstand everything I said despite her speaking English well. "Oh $18 is a significant amount for us. We closed the check already. I would have to call the bank or something." Lady, are you going to FIGURE IT OUT?! So many times she asked the waitress what paper bag she put the soup in. "There was only 1 paper bag! 1 paper bag!". Ok ma'am for the fifth time I DIDN'T TAKE A PAPER BAG, I DIDN'T TOUCH A PAPER BAG, I took the two plastic bags I was told twice were mine, the ones that had my receipt taped to them showing soup, but no soup in the bag with the rest of my order. "Oh I see, so you took the paper bag, removed the smaller bags and brought the paper bag back into the restaurant and left. *slap forehead* Last time I got my blood pressure up this high was calling TD bank to dispute a charge. At this point I'm used to getting shaken down. I'll leave this useless review out of principle. This is me ordering food from them even knowing they had a health code violation for having beds in the basement of the restaurant for workers.

This was an exciting way to let our food get cold on my wife's birthday. Wish I had some comfort soup >:'(

Wasabi was super busy around 8, but we managed to squeeze in spots at the bar. Our waiter was super helpful with figuring out the menu, since there was a paper sheet and a binder. We ordered many things and got most of our food in less than ten minutes, which was great since we were both very hungry. Our rolls that we had ordered got overlooked, but once we asked, he brought them to us. Overall, definitely one of the better places for Japanese cuisine, especially downtown. If you’re looking for something quick and delicious, this is your place.
