    We were greeted by a very lovely hostess. She knew we were there to celebrate my daughter's birthday (I'm visiting her from out of town), and she said she had a great table for us (which it was). Our waiter was the opposite. He did give great suggestions of things to order (not from his own inquiry of questions we had about the menu, but our questions because we had never been there before). He walked passed our table many times, not stopping to check in or fill our glasses from the bottle of wine we ordered. He didn't bring one dish we ordered, and had to remind him to remove it from our bill. He never asked if there was anything else we wanted (dessert for the birthday). We saw him being attentive to other customers, and he actually came over to spend time telling us about taking time to talk to another customer's daughter on the phone to take her "to go" order. Why is that important to us when we're there to celebrate my daughter's birthday. Bottom line, the food was delicious and the hostess was very sweet. If we go again, maybe we'll get a waiter interested in our experience.

    Food was great but our server did not seem to care that we were there. The only time she came to our table was when we initially sat down and when we had to ask for our check. Unfortunate because I usually love Wabi and had friends in town. Their only comment that it was one of the worst serving experiences to date.

    They need to stop serving refrigerator-cold pre made sushi rolls, if I wanted that I could get it at Ralph's. Very disappointed
