Wasabi Japanese Sushi & Grill — Restaurant in Lake Charles

Not bad. Went for the first time in years. A large selection of sushi options. Went on a Monday for early dinner, not busy at all.

Location: on Ryan Street. Has its own parking lot. Able to find by gps

Atmosphere: definitely needs some tlc. The ceiling looked to be getting repaired (I hope). It could use a good cleaning. The entire floor was sticky and the tables could use a scrub. Dim lighting. My husband said it felt depressing.

Service: friendly. Able to recommend sushi options but had some trouble describing some of others.

Food: sushi (cooked and raw), noodles, rice, soups (clear, miso), salads (house, shrimp, avocado, squid, cucumber, seaweed, etc), appetizers (octopus, rangoon, dumpling, mussels, tuna, etc.). We tried the noodles with yum yum sauce (it was good and enough to share between both of us), rock & roll (not bad- crab stick, shrimp tempura. Felt it could be bigger), and the lobster roll (most preferred out of all). Nothing was spicy.

Price: affordable. Appetizers range $5-12.50. Sushi is $5-14. They do have lunch specials monday-saturday 11a-230p.

Overall, not bad. Just needs some updating. Good for friends and a quick bite. Would not recommend as a first date...

This place has some serious competition with Kyoto's Hibachi grill. When you first walk in, the bar chefs all give you a warm welcome. I am a frequent customer so I usually sit at the bar. After you get your drink and appetizer, they offer you some spicy bellpepper for free. I usually order the hibachi steak and fried rice. They're not putting enough eggs in it and I'm having to order more. And at the end, if you're lucky, they will also give you peeled oranges for free. My recent waitress Carly, was very nice. Even though the fried eggplants were not as I expected to be the louisiana eggplant they still gave me a huge discount when it wasnt necessary and I still tipped her what they took off. I still come back because these people care about their customers and want them to be happy. I hope they never close because sakura sushi was a huge...

Went here around 5pm on Sunday. Not many people here because of time. Went with my wife and 2 daughters(2months & 2years old). Service was prompt and polite. We ordered edamame, dumplings, shrimp fried rice, super tiger eye roll, and Nemo roll. Everything was very well cooked(or not for sushi lol). Food arrived within about 5 to 10 minutes. Absolute only complaint was that the 2 rolls were not wrapped tightly, so the wanted to fall apart when grabbed with the chopsticks. But every other time we've gone they've been wrapped very well! They even brought us out some green tea and strawberry ice cream topped with whipped cream and 3 cherries and spoons for us. Bathrooms were clean, but had to put a pallet on the floor for our daughter to change her because there were no...
