Whenever anyone I know want sushi, I alway think of Wasabi to go to. I just love the atmosphere, food, special happy hours, green decadence roll, and more. I also can usually find parking close by, but it could be my parking karma?

totally agree with previous reviewers about service. food is pretty good and reasonably priced -- service is a bit snooty given that we're not in manhattan.

I've now been to Wasabi Bistro twice. They have great sushi, creative rolls and a good sake selection. It is a fun place to go with groups and is popular but rarely overcrowded.
The only downside with the place is that I think it is too cool for me. The staff have a NYC air of self-importance, which works in NY, but not in Seattle.
On one visit our table was lightly chastised by our waitress for setting the as yet unpaid bill down on the table (rather than leaving it upright). Small detail, but it characterized my experiences well.

My husband and I used to eat at Wasabi Bistro for lunch quite often. When I needed a large takeout order of sushi for a work event, I immediately thought of them.
While there for lunch, I asked to speak to the manager on duty. I asked her if they would be able to provide a large takeout order that would be picked up at 4:30pm. She said of course, just call us about 1 1/2 hours ahead the day you need it.
The day of the work event, I called at 3pm to put in my order. The same manager I spoke to in person takes my call. I tried to give her my order and am told that the sushi chef is not there until 5pm, so I won't be able to pick up my order until 6:30. This will not work at all for the event we have planned. I ask her if this is always the case, and she replies yes. I ask her why she told me that they would be able to have our order ready for us at 4:30pm when I asked her in person.
This is where she completely lost me as a customer. She proceeded to tell me that she NEVER would have told me that they could have an order ready at 4:30 and that no one there would. I told her that she had and that my husband was standing right next to me and heard it as well. At this point, she pretty much told me I was a liar and there was nothing she was going to do to help me.
I asked her if she knew of any sushi restaurants nearby that would be able to get me my order and she flatly said no.
I finally ended up at Sam's Sushi on lower Queen Anne, who was able to put together a large order at the last minute.
Despite the tasty food, I will never eat there again. There are some many points that the manager could have saved the situation - maybe an apology? - but instead she decided to extremely rude.

I definitely give this restaurant a thumbs up. I do have to say that, as far as traditional sushi goes, I've had better (hence the 3 stars), but Wasabi Bistro still ranks above average - plus, it comes with a fun twist. If you're tired of regular California maki and spicy tuna, the rolls at this place will be a fun change. They still use mostly traditional ingredients, but these come in new combinations and flavors - it's like fusion sushi. The tigertail roll was our favorite. On a warm summer evening, try to snag a table outside.

Wasabi Bistro is great sushi and a nice atmosphere at happy hour especially. Good prices. Sometimes there's even live music, usually strings, cello, violin, etc.
