A deeply upsetting experience--left without eating…read more I rarely leave negative reviews, and I never make accusations lightly. But what my friend and I experienced at Wakaze was so disturbing that I feel compelled to speak up. From the moment we were seated, the treatment we received--especially toward my friend, who is Black and wears a hijab--was cold, dismissive, and dehumanizing. The server assigned to our table dropped the menus without eye contact or a greeting. When we asked for recommendations, she stared blankly and refused to respond, despite having just spoken fluent English to another table. We tried to remain polite and asked for more time, but she simply walked away. When she returned, her demeanor hadn't changed. No warmth, no courtesy--just a curt "ok" and a pen poised to take our order. I was overly polite in hopes of shifting the energy, but the way she treated my friend made it clear: we were not welcome. We ultimately chose to leave without ordering. The contrast in service at Yo! Sushi afterward--where we were greeted with smiles and treated with dignity--was stark and heartbreaking. It opened my eyes to what hijabis and visibly Muslim women endure far too often. I hope no one else has to experience what we did. Wakaze needs to reflect deeply on how their staff treats guests, especially those from marginalized communities.

Probably the only decent Japanese restaurant in Leicester…read more Sashimi is decently fresh, and the Ebi tempura is well fried. It's definitely pricier than most foods in the city but that's how Japanese food outside Japan. Take it from someone who used to have sushi at least 3 times a week that this is pretty good - there really isn't a better option in the city anyway.

The vibe of this place is really cool! There's loads of seating around the sushi bar and booths and…read moreI believe there is upstairs seating as well? There is a constant sushi train going around and basically you just pick off whatever you'd like or you can order something specifically. Each item is priced by the colour of the dish it's in and when you are done eating, a waiter will come over and tally everything up! It's a pretty cool concept! We decided to just randomly take things off the train and try them! Everything we had was super delicious but I couldn't tell you what it was!! We also had the matcha latte which was yum! Only downside to this place is it can be kind of pricey! It was £4-6 for 2 pieces of a sushi roll, cheaper for fruit/salads/edamame and more for sushi/sashimi combos and hot food. In the end, the staff were super friendly and made it a memorable lunch!

I debated giving this place 1 star. The additional star is for the staff. I ordered take out from…read morehere and the process went well - ordered online, got to the location and my food was ready - checking out was easy and the staff was friendly, but when I got home and saw what I got I was kind of shocked. First of all the portions were very small. And as for the taste, this probably goes down as the worst sushi I have ever had. The duck and mango roll was ok - although not much mango flavor. The tuna roll was downright disgraceful. Avocado roll... so little avocado and the seaweed even seem discolored and the taste was off. I was really disappointed with my meal here. Maybe if you came and sat at the counter on a Monday (when they have a deal) you would have a better experience as you can see everything go around and choose items that look good.

My only critique is I wish more places did a mix up of what you can order. I like to try different things and I can never eat more than a starter & a main. Would love to see more set menus where you can try a bit of everything. Plus I'm greedy and get bored of the same thing lol I had pumpkin katsu...so delicious, never had that before, really tasty. Then chicken Katsu which is chicken in bread crumbs, smothered with lovely curry sauce and noodles. Quite a lot on my plate so I shared it with my BF. We also ordered variety of sushi but I wished I had the meat rather than the fish. All in all I've had a lovely evening with my friends & my man stuffing our faces drinking my birthday gin.

I wouldn't recommend going to eat in if you're part of a large group but they will deliver to you for free/£1 depending on where you are. The staff are all very friendly and attentive. The food is good quality and you get big pieces of fish so no complaints there. I recommend the Nori Thama rolls, very tasty - you definitely need the 6 pieces because 2 just isn't enough!

First meal of the night, after getting here from Heathrow Airport during rush hour we got to…read moreCambridge around 8:00 pm checked in and literally walked across the street to Wasabi. Yes it was pretty much almost about to be closing, so the item selection/ choices was very very limited. The place was also quite a mess. The tables weren't cleaned, the trash collecting area was overfilling! Overall I would say this is probably not normal during the day time when they are open. But overall this place is a super popular chain located to many train and subway stops around the UK. It's pretty much a fast food Japanese style. They have sushi pieces that you can get or bento boxes, miso soup, also some chicken katsu that they will heat up with a microwave. It's unique for sure but overall quality and how much a mess this place was, seems a little unsettling. Ordered just a few pieces of sushi because I wasn't that hungry but I knew I had to eat something. It was not super tasty or delicious, it was just edible.

I'm surprised by the high ratings on here. The service and environment were more than adequate…read more Wasabi is an upscale fast food restaurant and it feels like an upscale fast food restaurant.

Hamachi, salmon and eel were of excellent quality. Tuna was average. Rolls were good. Overall a nice place for a date and worth the slightly higher prices.
