Wakyoto - I love that there is a picture of the sushi menu. Great sushi & good service. - Japanese Near Me - Branson, Missouri

Some of the best sushi I've had! A must for sushi fans! We had a,rainbow,roll, cucumber roll, dumplings, lunch teriyaki chicken.

Super Fantastic Sushi Restaurant in Branson! You can enjoy cozy and quite atmosphere in the restaurant. Staffs are polite and service is awesome. They are trying to develop new and fresh menu. I tried Bulgogi roll that I have never tried before in any other restaurants. It was very nice and surprising experience to have sushi in Branson. Must come again and try other rolls! read more

Good food but WAY too expensive with small servings. If you want good Japanese food with big servings go to Noodle 21.

Ok so my wife and I really wanted this to be a good experience and since we had seen so many good reviews for the sushi and service. We were extremely disappointed. Our server came by after about 5 mins to get our drink orders. Ok there had been a large group ahead of us so no worries well we got our drinks shortly after than ended up waiting for at least 15 min before he came back for our order. When we ordered my wife ordered another drink since it had taken awhile for him to come by. By this time another couple had been seated and they recieved their appetizers before my wife got her second drink and she had to flag down our server because he apparently had forgotten that she ordered one. The couple that was seated after us actually received their order before ours came in and they were seated after we had ordered. We finally recieved our sushi after a bad apology from our server after we had complained. The sushi itself was good but they must have cooked their rice wrong or something because the rolls were falling apart very easily. Also the server never took away the any of the empty dishes / bottle. They brought us an pork dumplings as an apology without asking if we wanted it which if he had, would have found out that we dont eat pork so yeaaa thanks but no thanks read more

Labor Day weekend. Walked in and stood in line forever. Open tables all over the place. They weren't seating anyone. Finally sat the people ahead of us. We were next. Had been waiting about 45 min. Plenty of open tables. They asked us to wait 10 more minutes. After 15 more minutes we left. What a waste of time. Very disappointed and wasted all that time for nothing. They were letting people ahead of us for take out and also taking call in orders. read more

LOVE LOVE LOVE this place! It is a world of fine Asian cuisine and genuine hospitality without being too much. My favorite sushi place in Branson. read more

We really enjoyed our meal here. Service was great, food was good and we like the low light cozy environment that some people complain about. read more

Some of the best sushi I've had! It's a little hole in the wall and it's great! The owners are super sweet also.

Great customer service, friendly! Sushi is so good. Don't pass this place up! Such a lovely experience!!

We found the majority of Branson to be overrated in terms of hype, cost, and lines. This place was an exception. We travel all over the world, and landlocked cities simply don't have good sushi (except at exorbitant prices). The sushi here is above average in our experience, the service was excellent, and best of all - no lines, even for dinner over 4th of July weekend. While we may not return to Branson, we will recommend this place to friends (as well as the Indian place in the same strip, though good luck getting a table there). The bulgogi was pretty good too, but already cooked and not a cook-at-the-table type Korean now place read more

Very fresh sushi!! Enjoyed our dinner and the service was great! White tuna melted in our mouths and wasabi was made in-house. Definitely will visit again! read more

The food and service were amazing. Try the Fire Viking Roll, you will not! be disappointed. Miso soup was spot on. Ribeye and chicken in teriyaki was great as well. Unassuming from the outside, cozy and intimate on the inside. Great for a romantic evening or perfect for a family get together However if you blink you will miss it. It's on the north side of the strip at the end of tiny shopping center across the street from Walmart. Prices $$-$$$ read more

The service at Wasabi is excellent. The wait staff is friendly and helpful, and the food was excellent. I haven't eaten much sushi, but I really have liked everything I have eaten at Wasabi. I would highly recommend the 'Bling Bling'. They have recently remodeled, and the decor is quite nice. It is located on the strip, so it is very easy to find. I would consider the prices to be what you'd expect to pay anywhere for a decent restaurant. This is one of the places that I request to go to when we visit Branson. read more

See all

I love LOVE Wakyoto! I've been going there several times a month for years. The owners and servers are always friendly and treat their regulars well!. The Sushi!? Amazing! The quality is always good and the regular dishes I get are consistant. Considering Branson is a small down the sushi you will get here will be amazing! read more

Great sushi. Friendly service. Good sized portions. The only thing I would change is the cheesy muzak!

Wakyoto is a wonderful hidden secret for real Japanese sushi in Branson! The sushi chef came out to our table to make recommendations for us! The rolls were beautifully made and tasted even better! The service was just as good as the food! I had the spicy trio roll which was beyond incredible! Everything is fresh and delightful! 100% would recommend!! read more

Wakyoto - Spicy trio roll and the eel roll!! 100% would recommend! - Japanese Near Me - Branson, Missouri

We had been in Branson for two days and were already tired of fried, amusement park food. We decided on this place based on the reviews. We LOVED it! We both ordered the dinner box recommended by another yelper. Our meals were fresh, light, and delicious. Our waitress, Emma, was a character. We enjoyed her. I didn't know how to eat the edemmame and had to ask her. Glad I did because I was making it more difficult than it needed to be! We left feeling full and satisfied but not stuffed to the gills. We thoroughly enjoyed this meal! read more

Dinner box is the way to go! The Bulkogi is amazing. And talk about light and flaky tempura - Wow! Be sure to try this place. The service was top-rate. Thank you! read more

The food was amazing. The price for the money is great, the portions are actually almost too much. Our waitress was super friendly. Overall one of the best experiences I have ever had at a restaurant. I will definitely be eating here again. read more

Excellent sushi fresh and flavorful ! Reasonable prices and good service .Ordered seaweed salad, squid salad , rainbow and firecracker rolls everything was fantastic ! read more

Service was slow and food was not worth the price! Paid 28$ for 2 house salads and lobster roll which was 8 small pieces that barely had any lobster! We always order lobster roll everywhere we go for sushi and never have we ever had such a small portion! We told the lady that our plate did not even match the picture on menu she said oh sorry about that and gave us the ticket! Everywhere we go the lobster order is always more then enough for 2 people this place portion was not even enough for 1 person! :( place was clean and nice! read more

Sushi was the best. Service was even better! ...and we had four kids in our group. Cucumber salad White Christmas roll Lobster roll, Branson roll and the others we had were top notch read more

Our recent visit to Wasabi was disappointing. Our waitress "forgot" to bring water. When we ordered our food she asked if we wanted white or fried rice. Since neither of us much cared about the rice, we said "fried." It came with the meal and was dry and tasteless, but there was an extra $4.00 charge on the bill. Hubby inquired about that and was told it was because we chose the fried rice. Who knew?? I guess others did and that may be why it was so dry and left-over tasting. Left a bad taste in our mouths. read more

Another one of our favorite places to go in Branson. This place has excellent food and service with some seriously chic ambiance. Everything from their food to their decor is awesome :) read more

Very good sushi. Fresh. We enjoyed our lunch and dinner we did the following day. Very friendly staff.

The food was ok! My husband tried to order a soup and the waitress talked him out of it by saying he wouldn't like it. He kept asking to even try it but she said no and told him to order another dish. We were disappointed that this experience was not a good one. We arrived at the restaurant at 2:00 pm and were rushed from the time we arrive until we left and was disappointed in the experience. If you do go do not arrive unless you get to the restaurant early and insist on your choice. read more

The quality of the food at Wasabi is the best I've tasted in the Midwest. The rolls here are delicious. I recommend the Fire Viking, Shrimp Mania and Pimp My Roll. If you're looking for something a little more raw, try the Raw Roll. You will not be disappointed with those rolls or with the service and atmosphere. read more

So glad we found this little gem. Amazing sushi and prompt service! You must try the 911 roll, Vegas roll, and caterpillar. She gave our whole table free miso soup and it was delicious. Their homemade ginger dressing was to die for as well. We will definitely make a point to visit this spot every time we come to Branson. read more

Stopped in here wanting some sushi. Atmosphere was nice and they had a huge selection of rolls. They didn't know what the "shaggy dog" was so I don't know what that means, they have it in Texas so maybe it's called something different here. The "uncle sam" looked to be the closest to it. Anyways I branched out and tried the wakyoto special roll and it was very tasty. Shrimp was fresh without the fishy taste that sometimes accompanies some sushi. The seared salmon was nice as well and the spicy crap topping had the perfect amount of heat. The only thing I was concerned about is the coldness of the top of the roll. Half the roll was hot and the top half was cold due to the amount of sauces on top. Some people may like this but personally I dont. Still fairly new to eating sushi and trying new sushi types so it may just be me. I also noticed the pickled ginger was white here while I'm used to seeing it pink, again no big deal tastes the same. read more

Amazing food!! All the waitresses here are always so polite and accommodating. My bf and I and my parents always make this a date night spot!! read more

Good place for Sushi in BRANSON. Lots of food for the price and the service was great. A hidden gem, even if it across from a Wal-Mart and next to a tattoo parlor. read more

Located near Tanger Outlet this was a great find! The rolls did not disappoint! Great service and the decor was fantastic. Will be back!

Surprisingly great sushi! Maybe not authentic, but close-to-home sushi for us and we loved it! The the Viking roll and lobster roll were perfect! Great miso and house salad dressing as well! read more

At first I was skeptical of sushi in Branson, so far from the coast and typical places you'd eat sushi, but my wife and I were both very impressed with our experience. Fresh, tasty fish and creative roll combinations. Would definitely eat here again when in the area. read more

The only place to eat sushi in Branson or the whole state as far as I'm concerned! Freshest of the fresh best of the best!

It's a very nice casual place. I really liked that they had bamboo shades to separate each table. Enjoyed the hot tea and Miso soup. The simple sushi(Cali roll and tuna avocado didn't have as MUCH flavor as I've had before but the Hawaii roll was very tasty. :) read more

I am a sushi and sashimi fan -- and this by far is my favorite place for sashimi salad and as good as it gets in Branson. Great atmosphere, we enjoyed talking with our sushi chef, Roman and our server, Kate. They were personable and very service oriented. If you crave sushi or sashimi like I do - you will be happy with this place... read more

Had an early dinner. The service was pleasant and fast. We each had a bento box. Our food met our expectations. I have had better but it was certainly tasty. I did think it was a little high in price but I would go there again when we are in Branson. read more

Incredible customer service and greeted by name at the door. Ordered to go and it was finished before promised. Food was delicious!!!
