We order take-out from Wasa ALL the time. Their sushi and sashimi is usually excellent. This time we decided to eat there and the chicken teriyaki was terrible! We seemed to remember that from another time. It was tasteless and dry. The miso soup was watery and the shrimp tempura was nothing special. We are very disappointed.

Whatever the level below subpar is - that’s what this place’s ranking is. Ignore it if you’re tempted.

Did not honor reservation. No table available. Staff incompetent and does not care. While waiting another guest complained that he waited over an hour for a take out order and the manager had no explanation at all and really did not seem to care. We did not want to wait forever with a staff that was that poor so we left and never ate there.

+AMDG+ First visit, decided for this birthday celebration that we would try an "new" teppan experience rather than the tried and true one. Staff was friendly and accommodating, though they did not acknowledge the birthday at all. However the teppan chef, David, was great. Food was good. We will be back!

The service was terrible, always someone different coming to the table. We would watch our drinks sit on the bar for 15 minutes before being brought over to us. It was not busy, the food was only decent and they ran out of ginger. What sushi bar runs out of ginger on a Saturday night? Overall, not worth the money with mediocre food and bad service. 4 people - $200. Not good enough.
