    Salmon roll
    Lisa G.

    Really good food, right by UKY campus. We needed a move in break and hit this around 8:30pm on a Sunday. Everything was really good. I like that they have an assortment of sushi, Chinese and Japanese dishes. Everyone could find something they liked. The food came out quickly and prices were reasonable.

    Salmon Bento Box
    Chelsea A.

    After the renovations, I wanted to come to Ginger Wasabi to have a look at the new bar and dining areas. It looks great inside, but I still chose to take my food to-go out of convenience. I normally get the sushi but was told that the bento boxes are a really good deal. It's ~$14 for a classic sushi roll (8 pieces), two crab Rangoon, rice, teriyaki entree of your choice and a salad. After tip and tax, it was closer to $17. I agree, it was a great amount of food for what I paid! That said, I wasn't a huge fan of everything I ordered. I enjoyed the teriyaki salmon and I liked the ginger dressing on the salad. I think the crab rangoon would have been better dine-in to keep it warm and crispy-- I wasn't a huge fan of the cream cheese but that is my personal preference. The fried rice was a bit heavy for me as well, but my roommates really enjoyed it. The best part of the bento box for me was the sushi roll. I am keeping my review at 5 stars because overall, it is still a great meal for the price. The value makes it easier to try something new without regret. The bento box was a little too much food for me, I will just stick to the sushi next time.

    valentines roll

    i've been to this place many a time and its always good. if you want super fresh fish it's not really the place for it but everything else is amazing. the avocado salad is my favorite for sure it's sooo good. their poke bowl is also super delicious every time and so is the salmon bento box. their basic rolls are probably their best although i did induldge today to get the special valentines one. it was good, the tuna wasnt the freshest but it was so cute and still delicious. it's always so cute in here the drawings on the wall are adorable. the service is always impeccable as well.

    Such cute soy sauce bottles! I definitely need one.

    Yum! I love Sakura at the mall, but it's always a hassle driving there and fighting people. This place is close to campus but SOOO GOOD. I like them for two very important reasons: decent portions and their sushi is pretty solid! There are a bunch of places around town that do sushi, but I don't think anyone's quite gotten down the concept of going quick (well, maybe Kroger, but they premake their rolls). These guys come close! Teriyaki bowls are loaded with veggies, the rolls come out quite fresh, and we got served within 15 minutes. Definitely will be back, but parking does get a little iffy, so be warned!

    I enjoyed this place on my first visit and I can't wait to come back and sample more of the menu! I saw the free California roll on the Hooked app and I wandered in one evening after a disappointing visit to another place in the neighborhood that left me still hungry. I got my free Cali roll and also ordered the avocado salad. My husband got the philly roll and that was delicious - definitely will get that one again next time. I loved the avocado salad, it was only $4 and came in a pretty big container with lots of avocado and ginger dressing. It was very good and tasty. we took our food to go but I love the atmosphere here and I am planning to come back and dine in very soon. The place is very clean and the people were very kind.

    First off, this place charges like a full service restaurant, which they are not. So I ordered pork dumplings and a dragon roll. The pork dumplings where the same thing you can buy at Costco but they FRIED them. They fried them on a flat grill and burned the rice to get the centers defrosted and warm. They were served drenched in oil in a basket. My sushi was served in an appealing manner. It looked good, till you flip it on the side and look at what you are eating. See picture, very little fish, lots of cucumber and rice. I do not think there was anything to this 'delux' roll than rice, seaweed paper, cucumber, avocado (used to displace the skimpy fish), and perhaps 2-3 oz of fish. As a first I found bones in my sushi, took a picture of that also. Can not recommend this place. All sushi places make a killing but these guys are shooting for 16-18 bucks a head for rice and cucumber without any service. Matter of fact I am switching from two stars to one cause after spending 14$ I am still hungry but not inclined to purchase further.

    This place never disappoints me. The food is always tasty and fresh, and the service is wonderful. They just renovated and expanded, so it looks much better on the inside. Their patio is dog friendly, but just be careful with the homeless people on the sidewalk.

    7/12/25 (Meant to…read morepost this sooner but forgot) Dinner at Zen Sushi was absolutely incredible. My husband and I stopped in for a date night and every single dish exceeded expectations. We ordered the dumpling soup, wild hamachi sashimi, king salmon sashimi, the Siberian Tiger roll, and the Amazing Tuna roll, and honestly, every bite lived up to the name. The fish was fresh, beautifully presented, and full of flavor, and the dumpling soup was so flavorful and delicious. The specialty rolls were creative. The service was on point; attentive, friendly, and efficient. This is one of those spots where you leave already planning your next visit. We loved everything we ordered and can't wait to come back for more.

    I'm back! I'm staying at the hotel across the street. I tried this spot not too long ago, so I…read moredecided to come for some sushi. Tonight I opted for some seaweed salad, two rolls (Incredible and Dancing Eel), and the Bourbon Tso's Chicken. Last time I didn't like the Curry Udon, so I'm going to give a different Entre a try. The service is friendly and the atmosphere quiet. There are only a couple of other customers here. I normally get sake but it's actually really warm out today, so I'm gonna pass and just go with some water. The seaweed salad came out quickly. It was really cold and crisp, just the way I like it! Yum. My Entre came out before my sushi rolls. Bummer. My mouth is watering in anticipation. I must be hungry. The sushi rolls are large so they will be filling. So far they both are delicious. These were a good choice. I'm not sold on the Bourbon Tso's chicken. It's essentially fried chicken nuggets with a watery glaze sauce on them. I think it would taste better if the sauce was thicker and less tangy. Im not sure what makes it bourbon? I couldn't get any hints of that in the taste. I'm glad I have the sushi to keep going back to, because it is really tasty. I like this place, I will definitely be back, but I think I'll pass on their entree in the future and just stick with the sushi. This is twice now, I've not liked the main dishes. Overall, I think this spot offers a nice dining experience.
