Wasabi Sushi Edwardsville

The restaurant needs a serious deep cleanliness, it is grungy everywhere you can see. Even our table top that was wiped was not exactly clean. The food took a long time and the dining area had only a few tables. I had the Spicy Beef Stirring Fry and while there were many vegetables it might have 6 slices of very thin beef. For almost $20 it is not a very good value. It tasted good, but the part was pretty small. Overall, I would say you better go to other Japanese Hibachi restaurant in Edwardsville.

My wife ordered us dinner online so she could pick it up on her way home from work. She called the restaurant when she got there and they said it wasn't ready yet. Shes still waiting an hour later. She called again and they said they're still getting it together. It's ridiculous that's its taking this long. The order wasn't even that big. They wouldn't even give her an ETA. I understand there's a staff shortage everywhere but an accurate time frame would be nice.

Arrived 15 minutes after opening at 5:00. Only three tables occupied. Drinks came quick and one appetizer. However it took 50 mintes to get seaweed salad and had to ask for it. Waitress thanked me for reminding her. Its a Monday but somewhat full by 6:00 p.m. At one hour waitress said it would be another 20 minutes. We left. Sad, its always been so good.

Tried to order carry out twice this week with no success. The first time the staff member said they were not accepting any more carry out because they were short staffed. Tried again the next day (Friday) and was again told they are not accepting carry out order due to staffing issues. This place used to be a solid option for sushi in Edwardsville. It has really gone downhill? lots of menu options eliminated, service/staffing issues and very limited hours. Now it?s gotten so bad they can?t even take carry out orders. I don?t expect this location will last long once word gets out. Unfortunate.

Wasabi has some of the best sushi I have ever eaten. I have tried multiple rolls at Wasabi in Edwardsville and I have not had any that I can say I totally disliked. There have been a couple that were not my favorites, but they were still good. They do a great in creating delicious food, whether it is their fried rice, or their miso soup, along with their sushi rolls. I highly recommend their food.
