Wasabi Spartanburg is the best sushi ever. The food is so fresh, original, authentic, and clean. All dishes have tons of flavor and it has the highest rating you can get for any place that serves food.

This is hands down the worst sushi I have ever had in my life. I had a friend who recommended it to me, but when we pulled into the parking lot we should have known to leave. It is extremely unkept. Then when we walked inside I told my wife we should probably turn around and go somewhere else because the smell was so foul. We decided to stick around bc of the recommendation and the Google reviews. We ordered 4 rolls in total. They brought out 2 rolls, one of which was a basic spicy tuna roll. No spice at all. The rice was dry and the roll didnt hold together. It just fell apart when I tried to pick them up. Even the ”crunchies” that they used on my wife’s first roll were stale. They brought out our other two rolls and they didn’t look at all like the description. I tried a bite or two and it was a soggy mess on the inside and the rice was also dried out. It was very bizarre. My wife sent hers back bc it was made incorrectly. I didn’t want to make a big deal out of the sushi being bad so we just asked for the check and left after eating a few bites. Never in my life will I come back to this place. I contacted my buddy and he said he has never had that experience. Maybe it was an off day or maybe we ordered the wrong rolls, but the 4 we ordered were not only bad, they were outright disgusting.Oh, and on the way out they have bug traps right by the front door. Had I noticed that when I walked in, I would have immediately left. That’s never a good sign. At least try to hide your bug problem.Service was ok.

This place has went down hill since I last remembered , my spider roll (soft shell blue crab) tasted like mush for lack of better words , I ordered two appetizers both were mediocre my kids did order their new hibachi option and ate it all so at least they were satisfied but I won’t be back. Service also didn’t

I stopped by for a carry out of two Hibachi meals and four sushi rolls. The food was average or mediocre. Did not really enjoy it. Have been to this place a while back it was much better.

We pulled up to this place and I thought..eeh, it looked a little sketchy but some of the best places are found that way. The young man who was our server was very quiet and slow. Waitstaff consisted of 2 people which should have been fine because when we came in there were only 3 tables with people and a couple sitting at the bar. The menu is VERY wrong or very misleading if nothing else. I ordered a spicy tuna roll, a sweet & spicy tuna roll and a rock "in" roll. The rock "in" roll was on the cooked sushi roll side and the other two were to the left on the regular roll side. When the rolls came out to the table the sweet & spicy tuna roll was actually the cooked one and the rock "in" roll was regular sushi. I asked the server if he had just gotten them mixed up but he said no, that the rock in roll was cooked crabmeat on the inside with rice on the outside and the sweet & spicy tuna roll was "only cooked" on the outside...I told him the menu was very misleading because that is not what it says. It has a different section for "cooked rolls" and regular rolls. The S&S tuna roll did not say anything about being cooked and the the RinR didn't say anything about being cooked on the inside only with rice on the outside. To top it off the food wasn't even good. The spicy tuna roll was not spicy at all, the gyoza we ordered was over fried (I prefer steamed but still like the fried ones as well). The so called ginger dressing on our salads was French dressing. The fried rice my husband had was not fried..I think they just took some white rice and mixed in some soy sauce to turn it brown. I don't know how this place managed to get 4.6 stars. Save yourself a trip and find another place. They got 1 star from me because I had to just to post thus, otherwise, they would have got no stars.

We came here after seeing the reviews and were not disappointed. Jing and Katsu were very warm and friendly and the food is excellent. We just moved from NJ and so happy we found this gem. This is a must go to place and we will be back again and again. If I could give it more stars I would. Thank you for the wonderful meal and kindness. Jim and Robin

Incredible service. The sushi is so fresh and taste amazing. The couple running the place are extremely friendly. Katsu is passionate about what he does and it shows. The torro sashimi is so fresh and tender it melts in your mouth. The seafood soup was light, sweet and absolutely refreshing. I can not recommend enough how amazing this place is.

The Chef's suggestions were much appreciated. We ordered the Scotish salmon he suggested and it was delicious. Best salmon I've ever eaten. Nice staff.
