Wasabi Sushi Bar: Reviews & Ratings
Late lunch to celebrate my last work event. The servers are very kinda and attentive. Coke products which is a huge plus for me. Sushi was plated beautifully and the poke bowl was just the right amount of rice, chicken and veggies. Great visit
We have only ever ordered carry out. We love it! The sushi is well made and very tasty.
Sushi rolls were good. However, they for sure could have been rolled tighter, they fell apart if we tried to use our chopsticks. Girl on Fire Sushi Roll was good, and cane out literally surrounded by flames. The roll on the was perfect. We had the Special Roll of the day which was a fried soft shell crab roll. We found this one difficult to eat in a bit with how large it was. But again if it had been rolled tighter it may have been better. We also had a roll with steak(I can't remember the name of it) it was good, but again needed to be tighter. Service was good. We were one of 5 tables through out our time there. We did notice the floors had some streak marks and could have used a good mopping, considering they had only been open about an hour.
The service was fast and I had a really delicious rainbow roll. The specialty rolls are a bit pricey, but the regular rolls are reasonable I think. The house salad has this tangy orangey dressing that I loved! Very chill. We sat outside and the street was nice and quiet.
Staff is always fantastic. Come here a lot for to go orders and also get it doordashed when sick/low spoons. Really good sushi!
We love Wasabi Edwardsville. The servers are impressive- they know their sushi! Wasabi is the best sushi in the 'ville!
Pretty good little sushi place located in Downtown Edwardsville. First time in forever that I went yo a sushi restaurant. The options on the menu seems at first overwhelming as they all seem the same with maybe a single difference from another one. Many different rolls to choose from. We split three different ones. All tasty and plentiful. We also started with appetizers. The pot stickers were good and fried a little crispy which I prefer over the soft, slimy texture. We also tried the squid salad. The was actually really good. The good portion of the salad was squid. Not sure what the waitress said the rest of the salad was but definitely not mixed greens. Event though it came in a smaller size bowl I felt it was still enough for two to share. The squid was not fried which is how I prefer it! The place is a little pricey. Expect a party of two to spend $60-75 while there. However it was quality food well done. For that I plan on going back again.
