Editorial Review for Wasabi Bistro – by Citysearch Staff
The Scene
Think modern sushi house, just out of the box: polished wood tables, washed lighting and young, helpful servers in black. With plenty of seating space and a dramatic lounge area, it's an ideal spot for appetizers and cocktails before a night out in Belltown. The staff knows what's freshest, so listen to their suggestions.
The Food
Purists beware: Wasabi's sushi is not really about raw fish. This is sushi for people who might not even like sushi. Among the 22 specialty rolls, cream cheese, mayonnaise and avocado are used with abandon--and to surprisingly pleasing effect. Take the Belltown roll, filled with seafood salad, mayo and cucumber. The Las Vegas roll is filled with roast eel, crab, avocado and cream cheese. Best is the Caterpillar roll--eel and avocado topped with mouth-tickling roe. Among the Japanese entrees, the strongest is sea bass, marinated in Kasuzuke and expertly roasted to medium-rare.

I like this place. The happy hour is great, and you can try a bunch of little stuff with a friend or a few friends and its pretty cheap. The sushi is very good too and the atmosphere is nice but chill. I did have guy server there one time that must have sipping the sake a little to much in the back or something though. He could not for the life of him figure out how to separate the bill for my friends and I. Other than that it is a decent price with a good variety and its pretty quick.
Pros: lots of little stuff
Cons: lots of little stuff makes for tough decisions

This place has great sushi and good happy hour prices. Also, good service. But if you're looking for an entree other than sushi, I would not eat here.
Pros: sushi/rolls, good location, service
Cons: entrees
