Great experience overall. The food was delicious. However, do not drink the water. West DSM’s water is horrible. You may ask for bottle water. They understand and won’t get offended!

Service was amazing! we had CJ and he was super sweet and attentive. Other servers would check on us as well so we were well taken care of. The food looked great and tasted even better!!

Ask for Chloe! Very knowledgeable. Ask her about the secret items on the menu.

Love this place and the food! We were seated in the back room though, which doesn't have the same atmosphere as the bar or first seating area. A little disappointed since we had a reservation, but still a nice evening with great food and a great waitress!

My son and daughter took me to Wasabi for Mother’s Day, because they know how much I love their sushi. We had a reservation and the table was ready the minute we walked in! Amazing food, genuine real snow crab and Alaskan King crab, not the artificial stuff like in some places!!! Clean establishment! My daughter loves their sangria, so I am going to have to try it sometime The staff is very friendly and very professional!!! Highly recommend Wasabi!!!

I had the kamichi rice to go, which was so good, with an egg on the top to eat it with. Very good! Also have had their sushi before in the past and must say, it is delicious. Expensive, but good. Definitely a place to go for fine dining experience. I wish I has ordered two kamichi fried rice to go, I craved some more even after it filled me up.I've also been making rice non-stop now at home too, trying to remake the same yummy taste. Def a place to go.

It was my first time coming to Wasabi with my husband tonight for my Birthday. It was a rather busy Friday evening but our waitress Jaelyn was outstanding. I used to wait tables when I was a teen(she makes it look easy) and she’s on ??! My hub and I split a bunch of amazing Sushi and had incredible cocktails with our meal. She brought us this chocolate covered ice cream that was deep fried, that made my entire night! Next special occasion we will be back!

Truly exceptional. Fantastic service and wonderful experience overall. Props to Sarah (with an H, the right way to spell it) she took great care of us all.The dragonberry mojito and night blossom cocktails were delicious. For the entree, I ordered the Korean beef bowl and was completely satisfied with the serving size. The flavor was impressive. I especially enjoyed the rice and veggies, but of course the beef was juicy and dull of flavor.I also had the chocolate overload cake for dessert. Lots of places brag about their chocolate cake and build it up with fancy over the top names, but god damn. This one really takes the cake, pun intended. It was life changing.Cannot wait for our next visit!!

Usually pretty good, but the last time I ordered takeout, I got an unagi avocado roll, and it would have been nice to have some eel with my avocado. At least the avocado was perfectly ripe, but bummed because eel is one of my favorites.

I like spicy seafood tom yum. It was good every time when I was there except one time (bit salty for me ?) But it’s okay. Maybe the chef has his bad day ??. Kim Chi fries rice is good. I love their spicy squid salad. Its bit different with other restaurants. I have new waiters couple times, not the best but can understand they are learning. I’m fine with it. Good thing that they don’t mess up my order ?.
