    We decided to check out wasabi on the post road in orange after a bunch of people have told us how good it was. Usually we hit up sushi palace for the all you can eat but decided to switch it up this time. The setting is very casual. The staff is very nice and the food is amazing. We started with the rock shrimp tempura since it's one of our favorite appetizers to get at a Japanese restaurant. I got a couple of the special rolls while Joey got the lunch combo that had a bunch of different things on it. Pricing is decent and the food is amazing. I would highly suggest checking it out if you're in the area and/or in the mood for sushi. I can't wait to order some to go next time I'm in the area and on the go!

    I went here a couple times this year with a friend and the experience was mediocre at best. Food was average. Average price. Not a fan of the service. The waitress did not check on us, messed up my order, did not refill water, and took an unnecessary time to provide checks and return cards for signing. Mind you both times we went the place was empty or only another table or two so it was not peak hours. So if you like the food and have nowhere to be, not the worst place. But I won't be returning.

    Normally I love this place and I'm a huge fan of Japanese food. After last night though I don't think that I'll be returning any time soon. Went there with my wife and 2 of my children. My wife and I both got the Tempura Combo which is our favorite thing. By 9:00pm we were both in the bathroom throwing up. Coincidence? I think not. Pretty sure we both got.food poisoning because we both felt fine before the meal and this morning as I write this I feel fine. Not sure if it was the shrimp or something else but I'm glad my kids got different meals and didn't share our food with us.

    Good sushi place. The rolls taste fresh and the service is fast. I dis go there once and my wife ordered a bento box without the crab and ended up getting a slab of salmon. There was a loss in communication but it was fine. Definitely a good place for local sushi. The prices are not bad either. I usually get the spicy tuna and its average.

    Wasabi!!!!! I have to admit they have some really great sushi not to mention some fantastic customer service. They are fast for sure, which I greatly appreciate because I have a half hour lunch break. The attendant at this restaurant goes above and beyond every time I order sushi from here (which is very tasty by the way.) The lengths they went through to give me a Ginger Ale when their soda machine was giving them some difficulty is like nothing I've ever seen. It was good ginger ale too! They made sure it wasn't "too foamy." The spicy tuna is my favorite and I found 2 rolls to be plenty and very filling. Great place! Usually I take my sushi to go but it looks like a nice little place to sit and eat if you've got the time.
