I've been coming to this restaurant almost since day one and I've seen it change. First for the worse then for the better. When it first opened it was great, there a was quaint kind of sexiness to it then after about two years it got very bad. More and more people started coming and the staff either couldn't handle it or didn't care to. The service was ok, bad, or nonexistent. I lived in Lynnwood at the time so I stopped coming for a while. I remember alot of the servers trying to get by with their looks or personality. Of course, some didn't have a personality. At first I thought it was kind of funny but I quickly made a decision to not come to the Wasabi Bistro any more, especially all the way from Lynnwood. About a year ago a friend of mine convinced me to come back and I noticed a huge difference. Every time I've dined there since then I've had great experiences. Sure, some are better than others but consistently the staff has been helpful and attentive. They are definately attractive but it it's obvious now that service is becoming priority. I was there last week and had a great dinner. I might have a bad experience in the future but I'll keep coming back because it seems like they care, and the sashimi is the best in town. Somebody will probably have a negative experience and write about it, it's inevitable. I just want to give credit where credit is due. I do think they've had the the same furniture in the bar area for a while though, might be time for a change there. Otherwise this place rocks!
Pros: sashimi,service,management
Cons: the wait,needs new bar tables
