    The food was amazing, sadly gave it three stars because the front staff could use improvement. We had reservations, arrived early and people that walked in got seated before us. Doesn’t make sense. But the food is incredible so still worth going.

    I loved the ambiance! Our server was good and very helpful! I enjoyed the yellowtail jalapeño and the chicken wings with ginger soy sauce. At first, I thought the wings were dry but the sauce was inside the crunch which was cool! The salads were in bowls and the veggies were big! I spilled some of salad because it was difficult to cut in a bowl. I would have preferred the salad on a plate! The ginger dressing was tasty! I had the chicken teriyaki bowl as my entree. It was pretty underwhelming. I guess I expected some saucy chicken but couldn’t tell it was teriyaki but looking at it or tasting it 😕. I enjoyed my cocktail, it was very tasty!

    My family had a wonderful dinner at Chashu before heading over to a show at the Hanover Theater. The food and drinks were both delicious. Our server, Ashleigh, was wonderful. She was friendly, attentive and knowledgeable. Her service definitely made the experience even more enjoyable. Will definitely be returning!

    Another great meal at Chashu. The pork belly bao and gyoza was delicious. The “Zaire and turf” special was flavorful snd spicy. Highly recommend.

    The wasabi was so hot and fresh. Plating elevated even a simple cucumber roll! Delicious spicy vegan ramen my partner enjoyed The dragon slayer sake, Philly roll and vegan udon. Beautiful and delicious desserts! Great service! Thank you 🙏🏾

    This place slaps so hard. Can't go wrong, and the sushi is the best in Worcester right now.
