   We waited over 2 hours after checking in with call ahead seating. The noise level was very high and the waiting area extremely chaotic! There is no way except screaming a parties name to let you know it's your turn to be seated. Our waitress was very polite, but we could barely hear what she was saying to us. The chef was funny and the food was good. Overall, I've had much better experiences at this same location. Maybe just a very busy night, but we don't plan on returning any time soon.

   We've passed this place a lot and it's always crowded, we've seen the reviews and decided it best to make reservations. We're glad we did. The wait can be long, but the experience was worth it. The place was still crowded, but we got private seating and all we had to deal with was weaving through the crowd to get to our seats. The server was attentive and made suggestions that helped us with the order. Overall, the food was excellent and we enjoyed the experience. That said, we'll be sure to only go when the crowds are light

   The reservation was set for 8:15. The family was there at 8 pm just to be on time. We did not get sto ages until 8:45 and they weren’t even busy. The sever was slow and forgot drink orders and did not bring drink refills unless we asked another server. The food and chef were awesome.... maybe it was just a bad night, sometimes things just don’t click and I’ll chalk it up to that.

   Didn't like the ambiance, didn't love my food, didn't love the service. Very loud. Indifferent, bored hostess. Server pestered us constantly; it was impossible to carry on a conversation with my guest. it's a one-plate meal; I don't understand why the undertrained server has to ask us half a dozen times if we need anything, yet doesn't notice that our water glasses are empty. Irritating! Food OK but quite salty, I went through a couple of glasses of water with more at home later. Doesn't really feel like a $30/person dinner, more like $10 takeout. Enormous quantities of rice dumped on my plate even though I said I didn't want so much rice. I'd have preferred more veggies over what looked like more than a quart of rice on my plate (seriously, my ordered food had to be split onto another dinner plate because there's so much rice piled up). The bacon in the fried rice seemed a bit gamey; if I ever return I'd ask for no bacon in my rice. Cook was competent. Definitely not the place to go if you want a quiet dinner with a friend. Loud drumming for a birthday group next to us as well. Better suited to a group/party vibe. Might be better on the sushi side instead of the grill side.

   We came to celebrate my fathers birthday. I appreciated the attention that all staff gave him. I loved the little pastry that you gave him with out anyone asking for it. I will be back.

    This has gone downhill over the past year. Food quality has decreased with a lot of fat in meat including bacon in rice. Chef quality was fair but could hardly hear him and the attendant as the place was the loudest I've ever heard...no one could talk in a conversation, all yelling. Manager was Debbie downer yet again as a customer presented the restaurant her daughter's birthday very respectfully and better than what employees could do...and he talks to her afterwards in the middle of the place, doesn't even pull her aside quietly. Yokoso is winning the battle, Wasabi...time to get back to what you used to be before we come back.
