Wagasa ceiling
Thomas S.

I must say I really like the inside, from ceiling to floor the decor is great. They do floating Wagasa's on the ceiling, tea cups along the wall, just every thing down to the lamps is very authentic. Unusually high quality disposable napkins, maybe I'm getting old, but I appreciate a good napkin. Our waiter was very courteous, brought our drinks quickly as we went over the menu. He was able to point out a menu item that was similar to a picture I showed him on my phone. I ordered the Godzilla Roll and my fellow patrons ordered the Cali and Rainbow rolls, and fried noodles. My wife wasn't too fond of the Cali rolls but I ordered the Godzilla Roll and they were really good! Fried noodles were delicious as well. Pina Colada was tall but not very strong, no complaints there. I liked this spot, but I might have to convince my wife to go back again, we had two entirely different experiences. I say give it a try

I have now been here three times. To be honest, if I had limited myself to only basing my review on my first visit, I would not be giving 4 stars. My first visit was when they first opened, and they definitely had some kinks to work out, and for the most part, they did. There was definite portion issues, server issues, and some other customer service issues. For my family, though, food quality itself has remained consistently good. Unlike the one other review there is currently, we've had no issues with our sushi or other food items. Our most recent visit (#3) was by far the best we've had. If we would have had the level of service, quality, and appropriate portion sizes we received during our first visit, I would have been singing the praises of this place everywhere. I'm glad we continued to give them a chance, and I am hoping now that they've been open a little longer, things will continue the way our third visit was. One of the things we really like about this place is that you get rice AND noodles with your meal, in addition to the veggies and shrimp. They have also done a beautiful job with the renovation of the space. We will continue to patronize this location, and I will update the review accordingly.

My boyfriend and I have been here twice now. Each time is amazing. The sushi is delicious and the service is fantastic. The water glass is never empty and they are very quick with all services. I highly recommend the fire roll that is my favorite. My boyfriends favorite is the spicy Santa or the Boston roll. The multiple sushi rolls in the boat for a flat price is such a good deal. Highly recommend

Every bite I take of the steak and lo mien with yum yum sauce makes me want to sing in a choir with angels. So good

Continues to be very well done. This is a somewhat unassuming space, but they have some room for…read moredining in and an excellent takeout game. I've been generally impressed by the quality of the sushi. We ordered takeout this time, and everything was extremely well packaged and presented. In terms of the food, we focussed on fairly standard maki rolls: a spicy salmon roll and a spicy California roll. Both were very nicely done. We also tried the veg farm roll, and that was a nice vegetable forward option. Not life changing, but nicely done. We also opted for a vegetable poke bowl, and that was also good. Basically the same combination of vegetables as the veg farm roll, but in a bowl format. The bowl was good, but it was lacking some sort of sauce or glaze that might have pulled things together. It was easy enough to toss on some condiments of our own, but the bowl could have been better. Overall, I this is my favorite sushi destination in Squirrel Hill. It's very clear that the owners are invested in turning out a high quality experience, and that's exactly the type of business I like to support.

Hidden gem! This spot is located in Squirrel Hill. The sushi was very good and the display of it…read morewas also so pretty. Staff are friendly. Prices are reasonable as well. Definitely worth checking out. Ambience is nothing special but felt comfortable. Great spot for date night, or dinner with friends!

An all-you-can-eat experience with a method of ordering like no other in Pittsburgh. They make a…read morebig deal about people ordering things and not eating them. In fact, they charge a large fee if you don't finish all of your food. Speaking of the food, we would call it mediocre. Some of it is on the cheaper end, and some of it is kind of disgusting. But at least it's not on the buffet. At this place, you don't actually go up to a buffet. Instead, you write your order on a sheet of paper, which you can repeat a number of times. There are limits to certain items, and the sashimi is extremely expensive, for reason that I've never really understood. My wife and I agree that it is the sushi scam when places charge a bunch for sashimi. Anyway, I really think that the honest review of this place is as follows: Service for 4 stars. They are prompt and courteous, and they don't bother you too much. There's not much of a show, and there's not much of a conversation with the help. Food quality. 2.5 to 3.5 stars. Price. Two stars. It's $28 for an adult. Possibly even one star. ambiance. Five stars. It obviously was once a very successful hibachi place, but now it's a mainly empty and huge restaurant in the middle of Washington.

Waited several minutes before anyone Sat us. Should have been a sign. Got seated, ordered. My sweet…read morechili sauce had a dead bug in it, they apologized. The sushi order was wrong but I didn't press it and my hibachi was just cold overall it just was not good. I've eaten at sushi bomb/mr Toyoko. I feel like the food here was not as good at all.

Washington is a midway point for yearly travels for me, and this time I decided to stop at the…read moreGrand China buffet for an evening meal. It did not disappoint; good selection, with plenty of options, including vegetarian items. It's more or less what you'd expect from a Chinese buffet, and with a pretty large selection. Service is friendly, and I'm glad I picked this place.

We arrived here after much deliveration, looking for someplace rated well with sushi and…read moretraditional chinese, etc. It was on our way, perfect. We get there, and the pictures were accurate but it is empty of people, and the food is much more sparse than I would expect. Not only that but it appears (and subsequently tastes) quite subpar for everything I can recall. I don't recall an item that made me think how it was better than acceptable to fill me. There was a sushi space with at least three spaces for plates, and all of the plates had the same three items on them, one being vegetarian, one being "spicy," and I don't even remember the other. The sushi was all a poor show, and they weren't worth going back for another round. I have not skipped the second round many times. The sushi prep space and area did not appear as clean as it could, and there was no clear sushi chef there, no certifications in view...(not saying they don't have them, but poor selection, bad cuts, dirty/messy appearance, the gentleman sitting there like at a gas station checkout) Like I said, the traditional stuff was not great fare. I got a second plate but to try some other things. Was still unimpressed completely. My wife was even struck by the poorness in such a strong way that she brought up leaving a review. Her experience with the traditional foods and desserts was poor, she finished little, and was overall unhappy. We don't hesitate for reviewing both directions, I hate to have to leave a poor one - we had a bad experience and you have issues to work on. Tried some dessert. There was a mousse dessert that was tasty - prepackaged, nothing special. Otherwise, also, not worth it. Honestly the rest looked prepackaged as well. I do expect the prepackaged and bulk stuff from a buffet, that's just part of it. This was a poor show of even that. It requires very little effort... Anyway, I was not blown away, in fact I was disappointed in a significant way. We were really hoping for one last thing on our trip to be sushi at a buffet, with the other traditional foods as well, and this just messed it all up being such a poor experience and food provision. Maybe next time, but not here.
