My favourite sushi roll is the unagi roll, I get it every time and each time is just as good as the last, took a couple tries to find my fav spot and l Wasabi is the place to go, the price is a teeny bit expensive but it’s so worth it for all the delicious food I get, I’m always satisfied when I leave and I love hours away and always make it a stop each and every time I visit
Parking: A bit of small lot, a bit tight if you have a bigger vehicle like a truck or something, recommend parking on the side lot next to street

I just order at the delivery app and i paid almost 50 dollars for a small container of ribs without the rice that is supposed to be included in my meal.Some people order on delivery app for convenience after a long day at work and don't have the energy to cook its just really disappointing to see that they charge high but the quality you will get is not what you expected.
When this restaurant first opened it was really really good and became one of my favourite places to eat and I have a good memory of my baby trying there miso soup. She practically took my hand off to keep the spoon in her mouth she thought the miso soup was so good.
But the last time I went there with my grandmother the food was very gross and not the quality it used to be. The miso soup used to be very very very good.. now it’s really really really gross… and the sushi rolls I got where nasty to it tasted like someone put mayo on cat food and rolled it up in a sushi roll..
To be honest the grocery store sushi tastes 100000 times better and it’s cheaper.. witch is sad because I really used to like there food.. now it’s not very good at all. Feels like a waste of money to pay that high cost for food that tastes so bad.. you call tell they are using cheaper ingredients and they taste gross…
the waitress was nice and good at her job and very attentive. But some of the other staff seemed like I was unwelcome in and made me feel uncomfortable. They did not talk to us but they where looking at us in a way that felt uncomfortable and I felt unwanted and tense and seemed like they did not want us there…that’s how I felt. Not welcoming at all. It felt like he was giving me annoyed disgusted dirty looks.. and the way he was moving around seemed like he was angry. I honestly felt uneasy for a time..I don’t know if he was was the manager or owner or what but he made it feel very uncomfortable to be there.
used to really like and love this place but now I don’t think I will ever come back to be honest..
It was a while ago a few months? At first I was not going to say anything but the more I thought about it, it started to bother me. And I thought maybe my feed back might help. I don’t normally complain or make reviews.
The guy there I don’t know if he was having a bad day or what but it was uncomfortable. But the female blond lady who was serving us was very nice and good at her job. It was lunch and when we got there it was not very busy maybe one other table was seated. but a few people came in after us. We sat at a booth table, I don’t remember what my grandma ordered but myself got miso soup and 3 different types of sushi rolls that I shared with her. And to be honest they did not taste very good. Not the way they used to when you guys first opened.
Kinda makes me sad because I really liked it. And had a good memory of bringing my baby loving your miso soup so much she would not let go of my hand and not letting me are the spoon back to get more broth for her. Lol she would cry a little and go momma mine. And held on to my hand with a baby death grip. And when she first tasted it her eyes went all big and sparkly and gripped on to my hand hard right away. She was turning one years old at the time. That was when you guys first opened. It was like that cute video with the baby trying ice cream for the first time when she grabs the cone after her eyes go all big only with miso soup. Lol I wish I recorded it.
One of my favorite sushi places in town!

This is our favourite place to have delicious sushi
I was really looking forward to some flavour so I ordered their Delux wonton soup, 22$ tai curry chicken, a dragon roll and shrimp nigiri ?, EVERYTHING WAS DRY (no idea why they even add noodles to a wonton soup but it ruined it and made it sweet, the shrimp in it over cooked, flavourless meat wonton, the curry had a sour taste, but nothing else had flavour .. even the bed of rice for the nigiri didn’t have that sweetness other sushi places have, the shrimp ebi ontop looked rough and idk if it their bland wasabi that they must buy at a dollar store or something but even that didn’t tickle my nose , thankfully they took the curry off the bill but I still will never come back here it was a waste of money and I ended up driving to kfc.

Overall, the restaurant is decent but there is room for improvement. Specifically, the mixed tempura was a disappointment with a very limited selection of seafood, consisting only of a single calimaria ring and two shrimps, which did not meet my expectations.

We were in Thunder Bay for a few days for OWG. On our first night we decided to take a walk to see what restaurants were near our hotel. We decided on Japanese. We ordered vegetable tempeh sushi rolls, yaki udon (tofu and chicken) and miso soup. The service was exceptional. The servers were super friendly and placed us in the private room. The food came out quick and flavourful. Very happy with our experience.

Food takes over an hour now and it's half empty in here. It's brutal. Food is okay, but waiting over an hour for food is unacceptable. It's been like this the last two times I've been here. What's the deal!?
