    Onion Soup
    Danny E.

    I was in the mood for some Japanese food, so I stopped by Wasabi in Georgetown--it's a convenient spot with a nice overall decor that gives off a cozy Asian vibe, though it could use a bit of a refresh and deep clean. The service was friendly and attentive, which helped make the experience enjoyable. I ordered the hibachi steak with scallops, which came with the usual soup, salad, and fried rice. While the portion was generous, the dish leaned more toward a Chinese-style broccoli beef flavor than traditional hibachi--tasty in its own way, but not quite what I expected for Japanese. The scallops were on the smaller side (about quarter-sized and thin), and overall, the entrée felt like it might have been prepped in advance rather than cooked fresh to order. The onion soup was a simple chicken broth, which was comforting but not distinctly Japanese. Prices are a bit on the higher side for the quality and authenticity delivered. If you're craving solid Chinese takeout flavors in a sit-down setting, I'd come back for that--but I'd probably skip it if I'm specifically in the mood for Japanese cuisine. I did enjoy the fortune cookie, got a good laugh out of it.

    Lunch Specials include Egg roll, fried rice, soup or salad. Plainly stated.
    John G.

    When a customer order a lunch special entree, don't tell them that it doesn't come with fried rice because it plainly states that all lunch specials come with egg roll, fried rice and soup or salad. Just honor the request and bring fried rice. If you don't want to include fried rice then change the menu. Major fail!

    Came in to try something new, was pleasantly surprised by the new dishes. Service was amazing as always. Amber and Henry do a great job at being attentive. The lighting is great as well, not too dark or overly bright. Can't wait to return!

    Calamari

    Don't order the calamari appetizer. The 9.95 calamari for 5 small pieces was disheartening. The rest of our meal was par. Really disappointing. wanted it to have improved since our last visit. The service was good.

    It never fails! Wasabi's sushi is always so fresh! I come here about twice a month and you can always count on the freshness. Tonight I ordered their fried veggie rolls for the first time and they are to die for! Each order comes with three egg rolls with sweet and sour sauce. The rolls came out so crispy and hot! (Be careful though because they do come out pretty hot and can burn your tongue if you bite into them to quickly). Also note their is a bit of a spicy kick to them as well so if you are adverse to any spice these may not be the rolls for you. I personally love a little spice to my food so my palate was very happy! I also ordered the Dancing Salman roll, the Philly roll as well Salman and tuna sushi. All around delightful! Additionally, the staff is very friendly, humorous and make you feel so welcomed. I have sparked up multiple conversations with members of their team and they put a smile on my face. I always leave happy and full!

    This was my Crab Puff.

    I called to order lunch on a weekday only to be told " no lunch menu because it's a holiday". I asked for packets of duck sauce only to be told " oh we don't have that". Very seldom do I order because of previous issue but wanted to try again , and well...... still not impressed.

    This is an amazing little gem in Georgetown. I come here at least a couple times a year although I wish I came more often! The sushi is always fresh and full of flavor. If sushi is not your thing, they also have some amazing cooked dishes for those who don't share the love of raw fish. The people here are always really friendly and try really hard to keep you happy. The place is always calm and quiet so it is a good spot to chill. This is a MUST VISIT in Georgetown, especially if you like SUSHI!

    Soup is good, rolls are a bit small considering the price, and not the place to go if you want hibachi. Friendly service.

    I enjoyed the Viking roll -- found it innovative and pretty tasty. Other rolls (Cajun, Pandora)…read morewere pretty average. My biggest gripe was the Salt & Pepper Shrimp. It wasn't that. It was tempura shrimp and it wasn't peppery (they just stuck jalapeño slices in there). It tasted fine but it's not what I ordered. I've had this dish many times at other Chinese restaurants and it refers to a specific method of cooking shrimp: lightly battered and crispy, with a strong flavor of black pepper. Wish they took the time to make it correctly or rename what they gave me.

Surroundings that transport you somewhere, like a villa, to embrace a type of cuisine? Here, I'd say ambiance is a comfortable escape with a kitchen and menu offering quality Japanese fare we all crave. The menu is vast and easy to read as you nestle in the cozy, Japanese themed surroundings. Not fancy. Cozy. You quickly forget the strip mall location and vape shop next door. It's a place to settle in for a spell or a quick, relaxing lunch. The service was extremely friendly, smiling and quick. The sushi was delicious, proper temperature and flavorful. The spicy seasonings were on point and the very spicy is appropriately noted on menu. I'm going back for more exploration, relaxation and `affordable quality.

I am extremely concerned that they are not following health code standards because a female employee who was working when I ordered . I had to ask her to stop touching my order. While I waited my turn, which also took a long time, I watched her eating behind the counter with gloves on. After taking a bite or 2, she placed her food directly on a counter top and turned around and started to touch my food and other items on the cold bar without changing her gloves. I had to knock on the glass to get her attention after trying to politely get her attention. She laughed it off like she was so confused. I even said its not a big deal. Just change your gloves first. This is a health code violation all day. The younger male apologized but by then it was too late. No one corrected her. It seems like it happens often and no one says anything, no one even looked sideways at her.

For roughly $60 the wife was full and we had roughly 6 dishes and one cocktail (I was still slightly hungry). Think of it as more of a tapas style ordering. Soft shelled crab - My absolute favorite and by far the best dish! Crispy from the breading, soft shell and subtle crab taste, and to top it off the fried egg adds some creaminess from the yolk. Not greasy at all due to the way it's fried. And who doesn't like a little microgreen to add some freshness to it?! It could likely use a little more salt, and this particular time the yolk was a overcooked. Sushi Tacos - 2nd favorite! You get two, and frankly I prefer not sharing these (although my wife forced me to). It's such a unique dish. Each taco is palm sized. They take a yummy piece of laver (seaweed), coat one side and deep fry it to make a nice hard shell taco casing. Then they fill it with sushi rice, top it with plentiful tuna, add a slice of avocado, and top it with micro greens. Refreshing, light (once you squeeze the tiny lime on top), slightly filling due to the rice, and absolutely delicious. Takoyaki - I'm not a fan, but the wife is. For me it's a texture thing. Even when visiting Japan I didn't enjoy this dish. Honestly though I do think it deserves far more bonito flakes, as the dish is meant to look alive from the waving flakes. Honestly we love this place so much, I always get engrossed in the food so much I forget to take pics. The overall ambience is chill and refined, albeit no white tableclothes, but it acts like it should have them.
