We were in Thunder Bay for a few days for OWG. On our first night we decided to take a walk to see what restaurants were near our hotel. We decided on Japanese. We ordered vegetable tempeh sushi rolls, yaki udon (tofu and chicken) and miso soup. The service was ... exceptional. The servers were super friendly and placed us in the private room. The food came out quick and flavourful. Very happy with our experience. Read more
Had a really wonderful experience at Wasabi. The service was exceptional as the food was delicious. The waitress was very thoughtful and gave me complimentary miso soup, which I enjoyed. Thank you Wasabi! Will definitely see you again.
Wow.. what a disappointment. the trifecta in bad restaurants. I have tried this chain before in the west and I thought I would try the one in TBay before taken the team there. Maybe this happended because I was the first order of the day but what a ... waste of $65. The first items to get flushed down the toilet was the miso soup. It tasted like diluted soy sauce with green onions. The tempura was soggy, there was no tempura source, no wasabi or ginger for the nigiri, and the main meal curry, was salty. The first time I have had any coconut based recipe that was salty. Before I knew how bad the curry was, I phoned the restaurant to find out what happened to my tempura source, wasabi, ginger and I was told they will get their manager to phone me back when they got in. Never happened. The best part of this meal was the plain rice. Never again……. Read more
Food quality is less than average here. The rolls didn't have much flavour, even with the soy sauce. Everything was just 'meh' and the rice was too soft and mushy. I also ordered the deep fried soft shelled crab because I've never seen that on a menu before. Unfortunately, it ... also didn't have much flavour. Not my favorite sushi place but it wasn't unsatisfying enough to stop me from finishing it. Staff was friendly. Read more
Overall, the restaurant is decent but there is room for improvement. Specifically, the mixed tempura was a disappointment with a very limited selection of seafood, consisting only of a single calimaria ring and two shrimps, which did not meet my expectations.
