Comment: The sushi is consistently good and fresh-tasting! Their lunch specials are a really great deal and come with extras, and you can get the specials as a take out order. The inside is really small and can get crowded during busier times but their sushi is worth it!

Comment: Just a small place nestled in-between shops. Nice enough just small. Better probably as a carry out rather than dine in and service was slow. Soups and teas were luke warm, had to ask to reheat.

Comment: This little restaurant looks like maybe not so fancy from outside. But I will assure you this is one of the best sushi restaurant I have ever been to. We got edamame for the starter, and the sushi boat for 2. The edamame was nice and salty. The boat was HUGE! We got an amazing set of sushi. When you generally eat sushi, you don’t feel so full afterwards but we were stuffed. We tried Sapparro and Asahi. Both of them were good beers. And we paid under $100 including the tip. Definitely it will be one of my go-to sushi place.

Comment: This is a wonderful, small authentic Japanese Restaurant specializing in Sushi and Sashimi, but with Soba also available. The daily special was a Pumpkin Roll that just melted in your mouth. Delicious with a homey atmosphere.

Comment: I love this place so much. been coming for over a decade. its cute, the miso is my favorite, the sushi is authentic or absolutely off the walls with the specialty rolls, your choice. and the prices are amazing. my only gripe is that its small, so getting a table can be hard. but its worth the wait.

Comment: Dont be fooled by the low key appearance of this restaurant, this is a hidden gem with the best sushi i have ever had in america that under $100. I have been to Tokyo Japan and the style and quality of the food here is exactly like how it would be in Tokyo. If you just care about the quality of the food and dont care if it is fancy atmosphere for your date night then you must visit this place!

Comment: Pros: The sushi was very good, the service was fast, and the staff was nice and attentive without being overbearing. The place seemed clean. Cons: very, very, very tiny. If you dont mind feeling like youre on a date with the entire restaurant, then its fine... Honestly, the space is my only grumble.The pricing is standard for any Japanese establishment, I believe it is fair pricing. Overall, I would eat there again, just do takeout.

Comment: Good selection of fresh sashimi. We ordered yellow tail, snapper, toro, white tuna, uni, botan ebi (although not the actual sweet shrimp). The sashimi slices were thicker than usual. We also ordered ikura and masago sushi, along with California and Dragon rolls for kids. Great food and great service.

Comment: Long time patron of Tokyo II. Have spent what feels like eons since it’s unfortunate demise trying to find a suitable replacement. Literally been eating my way around every highly rated sushi joint in Buffalo, always to be left utterly disappointed… until I walk into the beautiful WASABI!! Sweet Sushi Gods thank you for answering my prayers. People, I’m telling you, it was so damn good. Dare I say EVEN BETTER than a place I frequented for years. Unbelievable, get you some.

Comment: Update: still as good as ever. This place is so consistent and their lunch deal is just so good. The best quality for the price. They do the best spicy tuna roll of anywhere I’ve ever had. Also love the Alaskan roll. I also think the size of the roll is the proper size. Love this place so much.(Older review): Best lunch deal in town! Great sushi and even better for the price at lunch! Cute little spot. Simple and small on the inside. Can get busy but worth it. Hard to find good sushi not being on the coast, but this gets the job done. Love it here

Comment: This place was once a bastion of authenticity.However since the pandemic started the quality has slipped a bit. That being said it is still a good place for Japanese. Not the best (that would be Kunis) but a solid 2nd place. The negimaki are always great. The unagi donbury isnt bad at all. Still not like grandma used to make. I miss when sushi bars had more variety, tasty kohada and aji in summer with buri and mutsu in winter. I like the staff here and I hope they offer dine in again soon. Im sure the quality will go up again. Then this place will be #1.

Comment: As a true New Yorker who spent 29 years of her life in New York City I have to say wasabi is by far the best Japanese restaurant in Western New York it is the only one that reminds me of home and the staff goes above and beyond every single time I am there even when its technically after hours! Highly recommend this restaurant for all Japanese lovers and sushi lovers especially.

If you have food allergies, this is the sushi place for you as its easy to see what is in each roll and they are taking safety and health seriously. In regard to COVID-19, they have a whole set up that is super impressive with window pickup. Cant wait to order from here again soon!

I have rarely seen that here in the U.S.I just moved to the area from San Antonio/Austin, Texas - so Im very happy I found this place!

Comment: Wasabi is one of my favorite places to eat in Buffalo. I have been going here for many years and I am never disappointed. Their prices are great and you cant beat the lunch special. The service is decent and I always enjoy going here. I will say though, DONT get the pad Thai. Im not sure why you would at a sushi place anyway, but it just isnt good and not what you are expecting. Everything else though is amazing. I would recommend it to everyone (and I do!)

Comment: This is hands down one of my favorite sushi places anywhere. It feels traditional, casual, authentic. Its affordable and high-quality. Ive been to restaurants that feel much fancier and are much more expensive, and I prefer this every time. Its a small storefront on a busy strip, intimate, cozy, sparsely adorned with traditional, simple Japanese decor. Great for couples or small groups. Its also one of the only restaurants that I go to where I feel completely comfortable dining solo. Whether youre local or visiting Buffalo, if you like sushi you definitely have to go here.

I dont know how but they always manage to be busy, but with one open table just for you. Think ive had to wait to sit down once in 5 years of going here. Just all around great spot. Oh yeah and their hot green tea is the truth!

Comment: Its a good experience. The quality of the meal didnt impress me and my girl. Felt rushed out. The ambience is nice just youll feel cramp amongst other patrons since thier dinning room is very close together. Mixed feelings would go back but overall a bag full of meh.

Comment: I love to get their 3 roll lunch special with miso soup. Very small interior. One side has build in wall bench seating I like to get, some seats at sushi counter. Delicious sushi. Decent prices. (Kunis original location- never gets as busy as it was then)

Comment: I love this cozy restaurant! Wasabi is my favorite Buffalo restaurant for sushi. I love choosing the lunch combo thats only $10-11 (I forget if its 10 or 11) and you get miso soup with three different rolls. I love having the choice of three different rolls. Ive never had a bad food or service experience here.

The menu is wide and varied and the prices are pretty competitive compared to other sushi joints along Elmwood. Definitely try their take on the Spicy Yellowtail! It was amazing!Presentation of food was great. Decor was awesome. Id definitely recommend this to anyone whos looking for a great sushi time at a quieter smaller place.
