Laura F.

Following a boozy day in Manchester we decided to pop to Wasabi in China Town for some quick sushi for dinner. For a Saturday evening it was rather busy, so we waited around 15 minutes for two seats at the belt. Once seated we opted for the set menus - I ordered set menu B at £8.95 giving me 3 grey plates of sushi off the belt and 1 hot noodle or rice dish cooked from the kitchen. Neil C. ordered the Wasabi set menu at £17.95 with 10 grey plates off the belt and 1 hot noodle or rice dish. He didn't eat them all, don't worry, we split the 13 plates between us and it was plenty for the 2 of us as well as a main meal each. The service in here is great. Anything you don't see on the belt you can order fresh from the kitchen at no extra cost. For a quick lunch or dinner to satisfy a sushi crave, I would always recommend wasabi.

I would say Wasabi serves its purpose! Ouch, a little harsh okay. It's good sushi, and they know what they're doing. It's perfect for a quick lunch between meetings, and they have good offers on (6 sushi dishes + miso soup for £8.95) but a little on the pricey side. I think they'd get more people through the doors if they had cheaper lunchtime deals on, something for on the go commuters who just need to grab a bite. However, it's clean, staff are friendly and it's easy to park! So I wouldn't say I was disappointed, just a little... meh! I'm sure there's better sushi in Manchester, but it's good for a quick meal. I wouldn't take out-of-towners here.

All sushis off the belt are 1 pound from 12 to 3 pm. Absolute bargain

I entered Wasabi to find a packed room with a mono colored conveyor belt. That sublime, wonderful, divine white colored plate meant that the sushi it contained was one pound. ONE POUND. At this price you obviously can't expect the best sushi of your life but you know what, it was not bad. I've had much worse in certain branches of yo sushi, and for a lot more money. For this particular lunch deal, you won't find anything high profile such as sashimi or hand rolls, but I had some lovely california rolls, along with spicy salmon nigiri, edamame and avocado maki. Total bill came up to 7 pounds, and I had a feast. Good to know though, they only accept credit cards for a minimum of 8 pounds, or you need to pay an extra 50 p. My belly made the maths before my head did: "I either pay 7,50 pounds, or I can get an extra plate and bring the bill to 8 pounds and problem solved..." Nom nom nom. I didn't have time (or space left) to try their desert upstairs but I would go back just for a taste of their green tea waffles.

I've been here twice lately and that's saying a lot because I hardy ever visit the same place twice in such a short space of time. First I went for an evening meal and enjoyed Set Menu B, which includes three plates of sushi and a main meal, all for less than £9! Secondly I went for weekend lunch at the bargain price of £5.50 for a bowl of miso soup and three plates of sushi. The setup is very similar to Yo Sushi with the sushi coming around on the conveyor belt and there being different coloured plates at different prices. There's a list of the dishes so you know what you're picking and the dishes tend to come round in the order they're listed to make life even easier. Cheaper and way better than Yo Sushi!

The sets here with out the cheapist

Well not the best sushi that you will every have, wasabi is one off the cheapist. Great when I'm broke and in need of a sushi fix - I can grab some plats and a main for under a tenner. I do find that this place is a great stepping stone into bigger and better sushi places, know I need to grab me a plane ticket.

Think this is a Cucumber hoso maki – no fish yet, we might as well have stayed on shore

You may have noticed, things have changed with the El Food Brothers. This review features no mention of beer, El Food One had a water and El Food Two something that looked like a Lemsip. Theres no meaty burgers, carb-loaded Pie and Mash or infinite amounts of chicken wings. Whats left? Fish. The final frontier. El Food Two suggests we give Sushi a go. We've heard the word before, and have the laymans view of it. It's all raw fish isn't it? A quick google confirms our suspicions, but Sushi doesn't have to be raw fish at all. In fact a lot of it is just rice and veg, which doesn't make us any more comfortable. It takes us until Friday to pluck up the courage to hit the fish (slap the bass?). Deciding on the classic 'Generation Game' style of Sushi, as we've got no chance if presented with a menu to choose from. Wasabi is the destination for our lunch time fishing trip. We are immediately out of our comfort zone as we pass over the Northern Quarter border to 'the-rest-of-Manchester' and immediately loose 300 cool points. But we have a lot of cool points to play with, so we keep like 'Snoopy in Shades' as we try and navigate to the Printworks. Heading randomly down streets, we chose a left, as I ask the question is this where the Printworks is, El Food Two is pointing at the, frankly ludicrously large sinage hanging proudly on the wall. Its safe to say our boat has sailed true and the shore is in site. Wasabi is equally well signposted, with its neon sign our lighthouse in the dark of the Printworks. I can tell El Food Two is still not sure on this, as he makes me put my foot on the shores of Wasabi first. Its cosy in here, just enough room to swing a lucky cat, or the Sushi belt and the seats around it. We are quickly shown to our seat, nestled between fellow sailors who must be the rank of Admiral or at least Captain, compared to our First-mate and Cabin Boy status. Theres some rough seas following the smooth sailing from our mooring, and a touch of sea sickness as we suddenly realise we are far from the shore, and neither of us even know which way Port and Starboard are. The seas calm as a member of the crew comes to speak with us. I take the 'own-up-to-not-having-even-learnt-to-swim' tactic and we get thrown a much needed life raft, as we get the Idiots Guide to Sushi. Pick what you want off the belt. Theres a big picture up of what everything is, and the colour coding tells you how much it costs. Oh, and its £1 for the Grey ones at lunch time. Winner, we'll stick to the greys and we can't go wrong. Lets do this. Grab us those pots off the side. "Whats that pink stuff? Thats not Wasabi" says El Food Two. Pickled Ginger I reply (I've done Sushi once before, it wasn't very good and very expensive. It was a chain I shall not mention, as I think we've got one too many pending law suits. It rhymes with Mo Pushi) Another pot is grabbed, full of the green stuff. "You know its just horseradish dyed green" I pipe up, in a classic attempt of wanting to seem like I know what I'm doing. No one is impressed. Ok, we can do this, we've got the ship the right way up and heading in what we think is the right direction, but we still can't tell you which way is Starboard. Ride on the the São Food Brothers as I take you on our high seas adventure, picture by picture. (You'll have to cross reference with the pictures on Yelp) Think this is a Cucumber hoso maki - no fish yet, we might as well have stayed on shore Katsu Fish Cake - No we are talking. But Katsu, thats basically Birdseye territory, and a fish cake? We could have stayed on shore and gone the chippy Breaded Crab Claw - Now we are talking, this is proper sea food. Look at its little claw! But wait, breaded? Thats definitely Birdseye, and once you get over the claw, it was like a fish finger lolly. If the stick used to be attached to creature of the sea Crab stick hoso maki (again I think) As if the crab hadn't had a hard enough time having its claw deep fried, I've come back to eat its stick. Spicy tuna gunkan. I didn't try this one, but I got a good bit of it up my nose. Being fish keepers, we both agreed this smelt exactly like an aquarium. It was definitely worth casting off for this one That concludes our sail of the seven (five then) seas. We had an Katsu egg as well, but failed to get a picture of that. You think you've seen all the ways of cooking eggs, but then something like this surprises you. I shall insist on having all my eggs katsu-ed from now on. We head to the till to pay, only a fiver for me as I am exclusively drinking water. I'm more than happy with the food and experience for that money, and El Food Two even said he might come again. Maybe next time we'll have learnt our Starboard from our Port. Our Hoso Maki's from our Gunkan. Or maybe at least we'll have learnt how to swim. 7 Kastu Eggs out of 10 Katsu Chickens

Is it just a bit of fun or a disturbing sign of the times that we would rather get served raw fish from a conveyor belt than get served cooked food by an actual human being- you remember those don't you? To be fair, the sushi here is fantastic (if a little overpriced). Be warned however the dishes are small so Wasabi is definitely not a place for the famished. Years ago an evening in a sushi restaurant would have meant a few hours listening to some overpaid new media wankers on the next table harp on about someone called Rosario who they'd commissioned to create an art installment out of collected cow farts in some kind of statement about greenhouse gasses. Thankfully sushi is a lot more mainstream these days.... so you can now expect the same wankers to be talking about Dave in IT.

alexandra s.

The problem with this place is its lack of variety. There are only a handful of dishes that go around the conveyor belt. The seating area is only small (around 30 people) so this place can not handle lots of large groups. On the upside 12pm to 3pm Monday to Friday you can get all sushi for a £1 a plate- I know its crazy talk hey but true. Great service and great staff but overall not the best sushi restaurant I have been too.

Yumm prawn sushi!!!
Shrimoyee C.

I am not the biggest fan of conveyor belts or for that matter super crowded restaurants but the delicious food in Wasabi makes up for everything! When I think of sushi i cant really think beyond Wasabi because you can never go wrong with their deals. My favorite deal is the 8.50 one, where you get 3 plates of Sushi along with any main dish (Fills me up every time). They have a wide range of Sushi, prawns, salmon, eel, chicken, vegetarian and many more. Definitely try their miso soup and Laksa curry, because they are absolutely delicious! I would say its best to avoid peak times like evening 5-7 or weekend lunch times because then you wont have a good experience and might just get pissed off. I would recommend going there for a late night dinner when its quiet and you don't have to wait for an hour to be seated and then compete with the others to snatch your favorite plate from the belt. Verdict: Great food, value for money but not the best place to sit and dine! If you are a foodie like me you might become a regular here!

Yo sushi will always have a place in my heart and although this one is situated in one of the…read morebusiest stations in the UK, it still takes me away to sushi heaven and I forget about all the hustle and bustling. Situated on the upper level overlooking the manic bodies below, you have a row of booths and chairs around the chefs table. A bit of music in the background and small TVs displaying sushi adverts. Rapid button alert service from your table. Staff seem friendly enough and chefs give you the odd the smile. The menu is vast (examples; sashimi, noodles, skewers, maki, salads, desserts, smoothies, nigiri, rice, hand rolls) and I've pretty much tasted everything. The only thing I could whinge about in regards to the food at this restaurant is that they don't do TEMPURA! Annoying! I love tempura, soft shell crab is a necessity . So after feeling tempura deflated I ordered these chicken kebab balls (can't remember the name) and they were cold, so I sent them back and received a new plate nice and hot complimentary, so not too bad (only reason they didn't get 5 stars). They also have different promotions on, "Blue Mondays" is my fav, every blue plate on a Monday is £2.50, errm... and they do chefs specials, 25% student discount with valid NUS, and Christmas specials. If your grabbing a quick snack on the way home, there is a fantastic takeaway selection, bento boxes etc. It's a shame this restaurant isn't bigger but it's suffice for the location. All in all a good experience every time. Enjoy!

If you're in a rush and looking for a quick sushi snack or if you want to spend time grazing the afternoon away by taking plates off the belt, this place caters to all. I know what most people say, Yo Sushi is expensive - and yes, it can be. I find you need to be careful what you order as those different coloured plates soon mount up and you can end up with a larger bill than you thought. I had 3 plates (pictured) all at varying prices and a bottle of Coca Cola. The bill was £12 - which isn't too bad for lunch. I'm full up and was in and out of the place within 20 minutes in order to catch my train. Bigger Sumo plates can be made to order at £8 each too!

They do great lunch deals, which include a starter and a main for just £4.95, which really is a steal. I went to Umami with two friends for a quick lunch and we all taken in by the lunch deal. For my appetiser I had the king prawn gyoza dumplings. They came with a tasty dipping sauce and were served really quickly. For the main course, I chose the ngaulam gaeng keow wan (I wrote it down!) which is basically a thai green curry. It came with lots of cucumber which isn't really my thing, but it was hot both in a spicy and temperature way so it really did the job for me as it was freezing outside! At times, I did feel that it was so spicy the taste of the dish was lost, but I guess that depends on individuals' tastes. Umami is just fine if you're a student and fancy a quick, cheap bite to eat. It's not as good as Wagamama though. Oops. I said it. Wagamama. And again.

My first visit to Sakana and I was pleasantly surprised at how its interior looked (more so the delicious smells wafting over as you passed by their open kitchen). We were seated in a corner with decent views of the goings-on, and set about conquering the menu - the group was almost military in its tactics, dividing the menu's sections between ourselves to make sure we got to sample lots of different dishes. Three of us ordered a bottle of their house red (a Merlot) which was actually quite good - a bit on the peppery side but I really liked it. The food started to arrive after a bit of a wait, but we'd had some prawn crackers to whet our appetite. The sashimi platter that I ordered for us all to share was a bit disappointing (usual price £28 for 15 pieces). I can't think of anything else that was particularly underwhelming; the combo of orders was all rather good - but the highlights for me were the Taiwanese buns which you could have with shredded duck or pork belly (we ordered both). These were absolutely heavenly, for want of a better word. Service was friendly, if not a tad haphazard at times; it's definitely somewhere to consider for date night. That being said, you'd have to be happy 'flashing the cash' as I don't think it's worth the full price they'd ordinarily be charging diners.

On my trip, it was a little late to open as they had problems with the hot food service ... these things happen so I won't hold it against them ... so I got a seat straight away, the staff were extremely helpful and it felt good. I love the idea of food coming around and you checking it out on the menu and picking it up. First thing I picked up was some broccoli ... it was really nice .. the sauce it was in was awesome. I did kinda have an idea of what I wanted before hand so I just had to wait for it ... as it was just opening, things were a little slow to come around ... plus I was like at the opposite end of where the sushi chefs were so it probably all went anyways. I wanted the seared beef but it never came and, thinking about it now, it probably won't have come until the hot food part was working again ... by the time it was on, it was fuller so it would have taken a while and I'd already had 2 desert plates so going back to beef would have been weird I opted for the basic water .. it was so cool that there was a tap in front of me to get however much I wanted, when I wanted it. The downside was that it was tepid .. so maybe the cooling thing was bopped too or they hadn't turned it on I don't know. I finally tried my sushi and it was meh ... but this is me not really liking it so it could have been amazing. One downside for me was the soy sauce ... it was far too salty for my liking ... but I am used to having low sodium soy sauce at home so going to normal soy sauce is a big change. The desert plates were awesome .. I had a pancake with custard thing with a raspberry coulis and omg .. I wanted that coulis on everything ... I even did put it on the chocolate moochi that I also picked up ... the deserts were amazing but to go to a sushi restaurant for desert is weird. As I say .. if you like sushi then by all means go for it .. you'll love it ... but if like me you're not sure and wanna try it then go .. but look at what's on offer before hand to try it. It was also expensive .. but I guess sushi is. 4 plates cost me a little less than a burger and fries from solita and I couldn't finish the burger .. this left me slightly contempt but I snacked later. GREAT PLACE IF YOU LIKE SUSHI ... I can't stress that enough ... my review was because I found out I don't like sushi it seems. But I'm glad I tried it

To state that that the boxes are…read moreexpensive, they really aren't especially if you compare prices to that of Wasabi , yo Sushi ( who are cheap anyway). I passed this place the other week (it's been there since mid August) Walking in reminded me of the large fridge section of boots or Eat. All the sushi here comes prepacked so its ideal for the quick takeout.. With a choice of udon soups on the top shelf, underneath they had individually wrapped handrolls, large sashimi boxes, salmon , chicken, dumplings and swordfish. As for the drinks I didn't see anything alcoholic..not even the likes of sake or asahi.. Choosing a stackful of boxes we opened them up to reveal our treasure. The first one was the seared swordfish, which is not the cheapest fish . Yet here I was eating massive chunks of it for £3.50 ODD. Next was the tuna and salmon sashimi box. I think this was the most expensive box,at £7 but the amount of sashimi it contained was amazing. Box number 3 exposed x3 salmon nigiri, x3 tuna Nigiri , x6 salmon California rolls and edamame beans . This was around the 6.50 Mark which again works out cheaper than £2 a plate for two pieces! Finally we fought over the salmon box, which held maki and nigiri for £3.50. This place gets its high rating mainly due to the ideology of it. Cracking concept, great value for money and convenient. I mean the decor is okay..although next time look at the ceiling in the toilet ...there is a camera..hopefully its no longer live... The service was also pleasant, a nice lady who asked if we prefered forks or chopsticks (which came with a tooth pick-) However the food will never be five star because everything is refrigerated which makes the rice not as palatable. The tuna is also the same grade that wasabi use..tasty but I'm sure it artificially dyed. So overall I would come back again for some sashimi and a hot soup..but I will not have the very ricey dishes.

I've tried two lunches there now - the first was Chicken Teriyaki Rice which they heat for you before you go. This was delicious with great flavour, although could have done with a little more chicken. Today I went with the Dumpling & Nudo King Prawn Sushi Rice Set. Again flavours were spot on, although there was no description of what was in the dumplings (I think veggies). I also tried the Jasmine Silver Needle Tea (£1.80) which I've managed to get three drinks out of and still plenty of flavour. http://nudosushibox.com/menu Sadly they've priced the boxes quite high, with most items coming it at around £5.00 & above, so this could only ever be a treat option for lunch. For a healthy and fresh lunch alternative to a bog standard sandwich though, it's a great shout. Well worth checking out.

I was SUPER excited to see that they sold Onigiri, I lived off these when I was in Japan and they're such a tasty, handy little snack.

The only negative was the packaging, it's a faff to get in to and in the process of opening the packet you undo the seaweed, then have to put it all together again before digging in. Annoying. This time round I opted for the Salmon in black bean sauce rice bowl which is served warm. It was delish!

This is such a convenient idea, if you crave sushi but don't have time to sit somewhere like Wasabi Sushi you can literally grab and go from here.

They vary from salmon maki and sashimi boxes, calafornia rolls, Tuna sashimi, grilled swordfish, dumplings and ramen soups. I did try a soup the other day I did find this bland but the sashimi boxes are good value for money. Usually at a sushi place you can pay £6+ for a couple of piece, here you get a good portion for the same price. Other tid bits they sell are temaki handrolls, wasabi peas, edame beans and soft drinks ( no booze) .. You can choose to sit in the quite clincal cafe or take these home however I would recommended eating it the same day. I did buy some and ate it the next day and the rice was not pleasant, I think because they sit in a fridge all day anyway does not help. Overall a excellent concept, I do prefer the decor on Oxford Street though .

As for the food..they offer a very good cheap and cheerful sushi menu with high quality tuna sashimi..and some really good ramen dishes... The plum wine (which we drank the restaurant dry on) is tasty but pricey starting from £22 a bottle. .but to be fair it probably costs them a lot just too import it. The sake is a cheaper option from half flasks from £5 . I would recommend this place for someone who wants a change from cheap sushi places such as wasabi..oh and the sushi is half price if you pay by cash!
