A wonderful place to eat – We eat at Bistro Wasabi a couple of time a month. The service is usually very prompt. Though I am not a big fan of Miso soup, it is the standard pre-dinner freebie. I have found the cooked food to be very good and grilled meats (beef, pork) to be exceptional, with the Strip Steak being particularly tasteful. Now that they have 1/2 price for their wine list on Sunday and Tuesday, the overall value on those nights is hard to beat.

Food=WOW Service=How – When heading west toward Bistro Wasabi on Algonquin Rd pay attention to the road sign "Turtle Crossing" because that's what you will run into when you hit Bistro Wasabi. I have never seen two more incompetant bartenders behind the bar, the male just stood there confused as to his next move would be! You would think that a restaurant that had cocktail tables in there bar would have COCKTAIL WAITERS! When we reached our table the waiter greeted us by asking, "Do you know what you want?". No name, welcome... read more

Worst sushi in Chicago area! – Save your money and avoid this place. The food as tasteless and the menu was unimpressive. The presentation was uninspired. There was nothing unique to justify the prices charged.

Great Sushi, but long waits – I have been eating at Bistro Wasabi since it opened, and to be fair, the wait times have improved. The food is wonderful, especially the beef and asparagus roll appetizer. The sushi is also great; my favorites are salmon and tuna. The decor is very modern, and a little pretentious. I guess that's part of the package. When they first opened, they were really snotty for a far far suburban place, but that has really improved with the addition of a new bartender. I recommend carry out on the weekend... read more

One of our favorites – My husband and I have eaten here many times and always leave loving everything about it. The bar, sushi bar and restaurant are great. Best of all the food is out of this world. My favorite is the shrimp and scallops but I also love the sushi, their presentation is spectacular. We have also taken our 3 kids there, my 10 year old loves sushi! I have many friends that have been here as well and have said it is one of their favorite places to go.

oriental delight – I have had nothing but excellent service and quality at Bistro-it is my #1 favorite place to dine. The waitresses have been very attentive and helpful. The mood is oriental, muted atmosphere and we love the quiet environment. The sushi bar is great and even sitting at the bar is a great time as the bartenders are friendly and attentive. I would very much reccomend it to anyone. The asparagus roll appetizer is fantastic as is the ahi tuna appetizer.

Better Customer Service/Management Needed – I thought my first bad experience was a fluke when I dined here during the week because of all the good reviews I'd read. The server took our order and didn't come back for 15 minutes. When he did arrive, he informed us that the kitchen was out of almost everything and we all had to change our orders. What's a sushi restaurant without any fish??!! And as I said, we had already waited 15 minutes for our meals!! Our second choices came out incorrect. When we didn't see our server for... read more
