Wasabi Sushi And Roll - Placentia

We made reservations for five adults and three children for a Friday evening around 5:30 PM, just to be cautious. However, upon our arrival, we discovered that the restaurant wasn’t crowded, rendering our reservations unnecessary. Given the diverse preferences in our group for both cooked and raw rolls, we opted for a variety to satisfy everyone’s tastes. We started with a vegetable tempura ($9.95) and ordered several sushi rolls: spicy tuna ($9.95), Lollipop ($16.45), California Roll ($8.95), Area 51 ($16.45), Volcano ($16.95), Rainbow ($15.95), and Lion King ($16.45). Overall, the rolls were enjoyable, but I did find the prices a bit steep considering the portion sizes. At around $40 per person, we might have been better off choosing an all-you-can-eat sushi restaurant instead.

We absolutely love Wasabi! It’s our favorite spot for sushi. The staff is always incredibly friendly. Sometimes we place to-go orders over the phone, while other times we dine in. Regardless of how we enjoy our meal, we’ve always had a great experience.

I arrived about 30-40 minutes before closing time, and they greeted me with warm smiles and outstanding service. The sushi is incredible, and the staff's helpful recommendations were spot on. The sashimi is also superb. I can't give less than 5 stars in every category!

We ordered a selection of raw and cooked rolls, including the California Roll ($8.95), Spicy Tuna ($9.95), Volcano Roll ($16.95), Lion King ($16.45), All in One ($15.45), Lollipop ($16.45), Rainbow Roll ($15.95), 49er Roll ($16.45), Area 51 ($16.45), and a Vegetable Tempura ($9.95). The food was served within about 15 minutes, and we were eager to dig in. All the rolls were enjoyable, but I especially liked the All in One, which is a no-rice roll featuring tuna, salmon, yellowtail, crab salad, avocado, and shrimp tempura. The Area 51 roll was another favorite of mine; it's a soy paper roll filled with tuna, salmon, and albacore, topped with yellowtail and their special sauce. The fish was fresh, and while it was enjoyable, the prices are certainly on the higher side for the portion sizes. The quality is a bit better than most all-you-can-eat sushi places, but you definitely get less value for your money. If you're in the area and craving good sushi, Wasabi is a decent choice, but it's not somewhere I would go out of my way to visit.

Oh my goodness. Delicious sushi with soy paper options too for the kiddos. Great service and awesome with kids!Kid-friendliness: Super kind to kids.
