King Salmon Sushi (yum), Tuna Sushi, Salmon Avocado Roll, Tobiko sushi, and Pepper Tuna Sushi (with the sauce drizzle)
Paul P.

Wasabi Orange absolutely blew me away. The sushi was incredibly fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. The salmon and tuna sushi practically melted in my mouth, and the rolls were packed with fresh fish and avocado--not overloaded with rice like so many places do. I ordered the King Salmon Sushi (yum), Tuna Sushi, Salmon Avocado Roll, Tobiko sushi, and Pepper Tuna Sushi (pictured with the sauce drizzle). I ordered this through uber eats. A HUGE plus in my book is this restaurant allows for customization on many things! I used the customization options for the maki rolls. You can add so many different things to make it just to your liking!! (Ex: I added cucumber to the salmon avocado roll). The add-ons were not outrageously pricy either. Everything tasted clean and high-quality, and the prices were reasonable for the quality. Portion size is on tue smaller side. The tuna and salmon sushi pieces were quite small. Personally I believe in quality over quantity, but something to consider. Overall, the sushi was delicious, super fresh, reasonably priced, and honestly some of the best I've had in the area so far. I'll definitely be back. 4.5/5, if the sushi wasn't as small as it was I'd give it 5!

Totally irresistible. Wasabi could go up against any sushi place even in Japan and hold its own. The owner is a creative genius who uses the freshest ingredients to bring a level of flavor that will keep your mouth happy for hours!

16 years ago Granddaughter Avia enjoying Wasabi Restaurant!!!

Wasabi is the Best Japanese Restaurant in Connecticut...and Beyond!!! We have been enjoying the Wasabi restaurant for many, many years. The food and service are exceptional!!! The restaurant was remodeled some years ago, making it the perfect setting to enjoy the offerings!!! Here is a photo of our Granddaughter, Avia, taken there over 16 years ago. The picture strongly reflects our continued gastronomical emotions!!!

A great sushi spot in Orange! The seating area is on the smaller side but I went for lunch so there was no wait. They offer daily lunch specials which are very affordable, like any 2 sushi rolls for $10.95. The sushi tasted extremely fresh and was rolled neatly. The service was very quick and easy.

Sushi lunch special

Was quite surprised to see they had a lunch special that they honored on a sunday! My go to order is Spicy Salmon and Salmon Avocado rolls and it didn't fail to disappoint. Prices for the lunch were very reasonable and overall I thought all the prices were reasonable. Our waitress was very friendly and attentive. Will definitely return again.

Ordered lunch special pick-up today. Sushi is good but I got the salad with dust in it. Please make sure you wash your vegetables Wasabi!
Vy N.

I order special lunch today with a side of salad. The lettuce has dust and I had to throw the whole thing away. Sushi is good but it doesn't make up for the insanitary issue.

Oh boy where do I start.... The beginning…read more My first experience at Sushi Palace was at the location in Hamden CT (see my earlier review). I have recently discovered the location in Orange CT and ohh my gooooodness am I happy that I did! This place is my happy place, my safe space and all of my hearts desire. The servers are very friendly and speedy. The place is very clean and inviting. I have already eaten at this location probably ten times since discovering it and if my memory serves me right there has been no mess up's with the food orders (as often can happen with all you can eat sushi places). Now to get to what's important -- the sushi. It's truly impeccable. So fresh, the portions are very generous. As you can see in the pictures there isn't much else you can ask for!!! Truly worth every penny. 1000000/5 stars. When my friend and family come to visit this is where I bring them! Every sushi lover should experience this experience! *** recently ordered Sushi Palace on Uber Eats to treat myself at work. It was just as fresh and delicious as the dine-in experience. Same generous portions of fish to rice ratio and same quality. Best sushi in CT so far!

Trying this place…read more PARKING - very ample as it is in a strip mall on route 1 ENTRANCE - we were greeted by a waitress in the front and seated AMBIANCE - basically ok. Nothing fancy. Many tables but a small sushi bar with four chairs only. The tables are basic not fancy. MENU - they have a regular menu which is small. Their claim to fame is an all you can eat menu. SERVICE - nice and polite but kind of like a fast food experience. No small chit chat interactions. SUSHI - decent quality and offerings from the all you can eat menu which PRICE - kind of a plus with all you can eat at $30 a person OVERALL - for me a solid three and a half. A four would require more congenial service.

The food was fantastic and tasted like real, home‑style Korean cooking. They kept bringing out so many ban chan side dishes, and they even surprised our table with some fried chicken, which was delicious. I ordered the dolsot bibimbap, and it was perfect mix of fresh, colorful, crunchy, and full of flavor. Every part of it, from the veggies to the rice to the beef, was cooked just right. Even though the restaurant was packed, the staff handled everything smoothly and still made each party feel like they were taken care of without rushing anyone. Highly recommend a visit.

Five-Star Review If…read moreyou're looking for a restaurant that turns dinner into an experience, Dawa Korean Restaurant is it. The tabletop cooking is nothing short of epic--interactive, fun, and perfectly paced--so every bite hits the table at peak flavor. The pork and beef are absolutely phenomenal: richly marinated, tender, and grilled to smoky perfection right in front of you. The sushi is fresh and beautifully balanced, and the chicken wings are a knockout--crispy on the outside, juicy inside, and packed with bold, savory flavor. Save room for dessert, because the deep-fried ice cream is pure joy: hot, crunchy shell giving way to cold, creamy bliss. What truly elevates Dawa, though, is the staff. They're extremely friendly, knowledgeable, and genuinely kind--always happy to guide you through the menu, explain the grilling process, and make sure your experience is flawless. Highly recommended without hesitation. This is probably the best Korean food I've ever had in the United States. --- 한국어 번역 별 다섯 개 리뷰 식사를 하나의 경험으로 만들어 주는 곳을 찾고 있다면 **다와 코리안 레스토랑(Dawa Korean Restaurant)**이 바로 그곳입니다. 테이블에서 직접 고기를 구워 먹는 방식은 정말 압도적으로 멋지고, 재미있으며, 완벽한 타이밍으로 제공되어 한 입 한 입 최고의 맛을 느낄 수 있습니다. 돼지고기와 소고기는 정말 환상적입니다. 깊고 풍부하게 양념되어 있고, 부드러우며, 눈앞에서 구워져 스모키한 풍미가 살아 있습니다. 스시는 신선하고 균형 잡힌 맛이 뛰어나고, 치킨 윙은 겉은 바삭하고 속은 촉촉하며 진한 풍미로 가득 차 있어 인상적입니다. 디저트로는 꼭 튀김 아이스크림을 드셔보세요. 바삭하고 따뜻한 겉면 안에 차갑고 부드러운 아이스크림이 어우러져 최고의 마무리를 선사합니다. 무엇보다도 이곳을 특별하게 만드는 것은 직원들입니다. 모두가 매우 친절하고, 음식에 대한 지식이 풍부하며, 진심으로 따뜻합니다. 메뉴 설명부터 고기 굽는 방법까지 세심하게 도와주어 식사 내내 편안하고 즐거운 시간을 보낼 수 있습니다. 망설임 없이 강력 추천합니다. 미국에서 먹어본 한국 음식 중 아마도 최고라고 말할 수 있는 곳입니다.

If you're a fan of poke bowls, Natural Kitchen is a spot that absolutely deserves a visit. I…read morerecently stopped in and ordered their signature bowl, The Triforce, and it was hands-down the best poke bowl I've ever had. The Triforce is loaded with tuna, salmon, and shrimp, paired with fresh pineapple and crisp cucumber, then topped with kani salad, seaweed salad, green onion, and roasted seaweed. Everything is brought together (sitting on top of your choice of rice, I chose sushi rice) with their poke special sauce and sweet chili sauce, which adds just the right balance of savory and sweet without overpowering the seafood. What really stood out was the freshness of every ingredient in the bowl. The fish tasted incredibly clean and high quality, the pineapple added a bright pop of sweetness, and the seaweed and kani salad gave the bowl a great mix of texture. Every bite felt perfectly balanced, and you could tell that nothing had been sitting around -- it all tasted freshly prepared. Beyond the food, the experience was great as well. The staff was extremely friendly and welcoming, making the whole visit feel relaxed and enjoyable from the moment I walked in. It's always nice when a place combines excellent food with genuinely good service. Overall, Natural Kitchen completely exceeded expectations. Between the incredibly fresh ingredients, the well-thought-out flavors in the Triforce bowl, and the friendly staff, this place has quickly become a must-visit for poke lovers in the Milford area. If you're looking for a fresh, flavorful meal, this spot absolutely delivers.

Although I'm not crazy about miso soup or the salad, I was very pleased to see that they offer both as some places offer one or the other. Although they're not my favorite, miso soup on a day like today is very comforting, and the salad is an amazing palate cleanser. I got the three roll special, with a Philadelphia roll, spicy crab roll and the avocado cucumber roll. 18 piece pieces altogether with the wasabi and ginger. Sushi X is an AYCE establishment. I'm not sure what their rules or policies are, as I got my food to go. I don't think AYCE is for me, as I've had three pieces of each roll and I am already nice and full. The woman who greeted me was very nice, and the establishment was clean but quaint. Ample parking. It's also in a great location in my opinion. Savin Rock Beach is just behind the restaurant in walking distance and if it weren't 24° outside, that would be a nice stroll to take after eating. Although this review is about this restaurant specifically, I actually recommend exploring the entire area because there are a lot of hidden gems and diverse culinary offerings within walking distance from Italian, to seafood and Mexican to name a few. There are also several bars along Campbell Ave. Maybe that's a well kept secret & I just let out lol. If you have the stomach capacity for AYCE sushi or you're in the area and just want a nice lunch special, I highly recommend.
