    I'm a sushi purist so Wabi didn't hit the mark for me. All the sushi is "with a twist" and for me had too much mayo and other sauces. Not to say it wasn't tasty but it was just too heavy for my taste. We had the crispy rice with spicy tuna to start. The rice was nice and crisp/chewy, and there was a good size portion of tuna on top. This was the favorite. We also had the baked crab roll and tiger king roll. Both tasted ok but I prefer to let the fish shine and have less mayo/sauce/mango/etc.

    Came on a Thursday afternoon with a reservation for 3. Asked the hostess if we could sit in a booth outside and she was very accommodating. Our waitress was friendly and extremely attentive. Food and drinks were exceptional. Can't wait to come back and try the rest of the menu!

    Wonderful first time experience! Jade was an amazing server and we enjoyed several of her recommendations! Cocktails: Keke Palmer, Japanese Old Fashion, and Soko Sake. Appetizers: Edamame and Crispy Rise (comes with 4 pieces). Entrees: Sushi Platter Tiger King Roll Cross Cross Lemon Sauce Rick James Moonlight Roll We very much enjoyed the sushi platter, Rick James roll and the Criss Cross Lemon Sauce. The ambiance is great with intimate couches and plants everywhere. Would recommend coming here again and again.

    Absolutely love coming here; very cute outdoor seating, intimate and has heaters. Great for a group dinner. Also love the indoor bar space if you want more casual dining. Great assortment of traditional sushi and some vegetarian/ vegan options. I love the tempura - it is so crunchy, I've never had anything like it! Also MUST get the edamame, maybe even one just for yourself. Staff is incredibly kind and attentive; I love bringing folks from out of town here so they can have a cute but elevated Venice experience!

    This is the sushi spot you go to with the girls or for date night. They offer great happy hour specials, too! The interior is beautiful and the service is always amazing. I love the toro nigiri and the spicy tuna rolls, and the cocktails are strong yet perfectly balanced. Honestly, I don't think I've ever ordered anything here that I didn't like.

    Patio view

    Amazing service, amazing food . The energy is also amazing with great music, great sitting and views. I made a reservation for the couch on the patio couple of weeks ago for Valentine's Day asking on the notes for a specific type of table and they did deliver!! Thank you for the great service and delicious food! We will be back !

    It's been a while since I had been to Venice and I had a chance to meet one of my friends who is visiting from Florida and we had fun but the service was ATROCIOUS!! Our waiter forgot our drink order and then he completely spaced out and we had to remind him to bring the second round of sushi. The food is way overpriced for the quality which is mediocre at best. This was my first time at this particular location, I went to the old Wabi Sabi on Abbott Kenny, which was 100 times better. I probably would not come back because of their unorganized chaos.

    Tbh I love it here. It's so cute, the seating area has cute shades of pink and definitely has a nice aesthetic. I always come here for their spicy tuna on crispy rice and their steak skewers, sooo so good. And the service is always fantastic!

    Spicy Wagyu Dumplings
    Julia R.

    Made a reservation for a table here not knowing what to expect, and wow was I impressed! Not only is it a just restaurant, but the atmosphere of the whole place is so lively! I would say it is a restaurant/bar type of vibe, so if you're looking for a fun night out along with a delicious dinner this is the spot. You can come here to sit down and eat, or you can just come for drinks to enjoy the music and good vibes. We tried a few of the dishes because the menu was just irresistible. I was a bit worried at first since I am not a huge fan of fish and this is a sushi restaurant, but there were soo many options. The Crispy Rice was full of flavor, the Broccolini was seasoned perfectly, and the Chicken Karaage was also so crunchy in the best way. But the Spicy Wagyu Dumplings and Skirt Steak Skewers is what really won my heart. The Skewers were bursting with flavor and I was blown away, highly recommended! There is also a beautiful outdoor seating area with a nice ambiance, and the cocktails are tasty as well.

    For the ambience, I'm giving it 4.5 stars and for the food I'm giving it 2.5 stars, so I sent summed it up to about three stars. To be quite honest, I didn't think sushi in Venice was going to be the best anyways however we were in the area and craving sushi. The only sushi roll that I actually liked that we got was the one with the caviar and truffle sauce on it, and the one with tuna and jalapeño on top. I'm not sure of the names, but that is what they consisted of those two were actually pretty good, the other ones I ordered were not good to me. The car chicken was a 4/10. The steak skewers a 7/10. The wontons were gross tbh, I took them back and ordered the skewers instead. And the hamachi sashimi was a 4/10. One of the reasons we decided to go to this restaurant is because we seen the amazing pictures on Yelp. However, when we got there, the server told us that they've changed the menu a lot and removed a lot of things. I saw a picture of the wontons from five days ago (from when I went) and they had apparently switch the recipe for the wontons. They looked so good in the picture and I'm sure they were better. Not sure why they would replace them. The ambience is cute though, and I like how they have indoor outdoor however, the service wasn't the best

    Japanese Snapper, black snapper, red snapper
    Jane K.

    Wow had a splendid time! The food was actually really good! The crispy rice was probably the least favorite dish and that's saying a lot!!! Started off with oysters (juicy, fresh, great) 8/10 Crispy rice 6/10 Yellow special: 9/10 Baked crab Handroll: 9/10 Wagyu dumplings 9/10 *** pro tip save the chili oil/ gochujang and dip those baked crab handrolls makes it a 10/10 We ordered all the snappers and Japanese snapper was our favorite. Ordered all the belly's too and that was great. Uni was too oceanic tasting that day Bluefin and toro was aite. We ordered a bunch of stuff and the quality was good! I definitely will be back to try others. Service was slow in the beginning but I think it's because we were hangry. Our server had the entire outside section so I'm sure he was busy. He was personable by the middle of our meal. I liked how he paced out the food! Thank you! I hate when all the food comes at once. Huge pet peeve The heaters outside are a nice touch, booths are comfy and isolated which I like! Pretty cool date night or girls night! Had a great time

    Do people enjoy sitting inside or on the patio better?

    We liked the patio more!

    Do they have keto options? I think I saw a picture of tuna roll without rice on their open table pictures, but it's not written on the menu.

    They have sashimi!

    Is there valet?

    Going to this restaurant for the first time tomorrow. Any suggestions on where to park? Thank you in advance 🙂!

Parking is in a little lot with 2 hours free upon validation. You can park towards the right or left. We walk towards the back of the harbor, in order to get in line to be seated. Seated is very limited and not recommended for large parties. It's perfect in a couple or threes. It took us about 15-20 minutes to get seated with waves of people coming in and out. The server and chef we had on our side were very patient and kind. I opted for the 6 roll set of fish: I had two toro, two salmon, a yellowtail, and an albacore to go with my premium Sapporo beer. If I had to be very transparent: the prices here for fish is very, very cheap. 6 rolls of $29 is amazing. But as we all know, quantity over quality. The fish does not taste as sweet, delicious, nor does it melt in your mouth. It's very lackluster and a big call for you to dip the rolls into the soy sauce. This place is great for beginners who are experimenting with the raw fish/sashimi, but for frequent sushi goers, I'd say to avoid this place. It's not worth spending the money. I'd rather pay a bit more for quality handrolls elsewhere. Again, it's not the service itself, but it's the quality of fish that is purchased to supply their restaurant. I wasn't impressed and I don't think I'll be back.
