Really good sushi! We had the veggie, sweet potato, and chicken tempura rolls, and everything was really tasty.

Stopped by on our way to our hotel. Do not be put off by the strip mall location. We had excellent grilled salmon with fried rice and miso soup. Nice family owners and excellent service. We will be back to try interesting rolls. read more

Food was ok. Prices were good. My seaweed salad tasted old and was definitely not fresh. Service was good. The ambience was good. Food came out fast. I'm in town on business, and it was a nice pit stop. Looks like a good place to bring the kids if they enjoy sushi. read more

Wasabi Sushi King - Sushi Bars Near Me - Saint Augustine, Florida

Very good! Fresh fish, tight rolls, little rice. Family restaurant. Very relaxing atmosphere. Would definitely return and recommend others. 2 ppl stuffed with sushi and 2 large saki = $85 plus tip. read more

Great prices, fast, place looks very clean and sushi was excellent. Best sushi in town

I wish this restaurant was near us in Virginia. Accidentally dropped in while going to Publix. A hidden jewel. Had reservations at one of the top 10 restaurants in St Augustine and cancelled to revisit Wasabi. Amazing all the way around. We would recommend this restaurant to anyone that enjoys Asian cuisine. read more

At first view this place appears VERY authentic Japanese. The green tea was Japanese style (powder, not tea bag), chopsticks/silverware across the top of the plate area like Japan. Nice paper screen imitation decor of bamboo leaves. We ordered scallop & veggie tempura and pork katsu. Portions were large for $7 lunch entrees. Service was swift. The tempura batter was thicker than "classier Japanese joints" or "real Japan" and soggier (but still good). The katsu (cornmeal crust on boneless pork chops) was good but a little too browned and "chewy". The brown teriyaki-soy flavored dipping sauce that was brought for both entrees was served too icy cold (better at room temp) and not nearly as good as "yummy sauce" served by other restaurants. The side grilled veggies were good but also needed a sauce. The fried rice was mediocre, steamed rice was nice and sticky. We were served by a very pregnant Asian waitress whose clothes did not match well over her belly and she seemed in "distress" at the waitressing effort. This did not make for a pleasant interaction. This place has potential but needs to improve in the "non-sushi" touches department as well as service. A smile and great attitude would have pushed me to 4 stars. It's located next to Chinese and Mexican eateries--and I left thinking I'd try the other places next time, rather than "gotta get back here right away". read more

We were super pleased! We came twice in two days. Everything tasted super fresh and the prices were fantastic. I liked that the place was smaller and casual. Service was excellent! read more

Delicious sushi. Really the best sushi place and town, and I have been to my fair share of places. Honestly. Just really really good. Please give this place a try. Great dumplings also. read more

The place was great. The food was nice. Everyone was friendly. There was a little girl there she refilled our drink, she was super sweet and polite. Enjoyed it. read more

This is some of the best sushi in Saint Augustine! Downloaded yelp just to let you know that !

I hate to pan this restaurant, but I'm panning it. The lunch special I ordered was, in a word, disappointing. The crunchy salmon roll was small and mediocre, probably because the rice was not up to par. The way the rice is cooked and season can make or break a roll, and it broke this one. The special comes with a salad. I was expecting something a little more Japanese than iceberg lettuce with some kind of Russian dressing. The only upside to the meal was the soup, which was white miso with small cubes of tofu. That wasn't bad, but I'd like my $8 back please. read more

Probably the best place to get sushi and hibachi! they're good is cooked perfect, i've never had a bad experience there. I love it and will go back many more times in the future!!! read more

Wouldn't recommend this one. First the ginger salad was small and, as it turned out, inedible. Give them credit for deleting it from the bill. The rolls were just ok. The couple of pieces of nigiri were fair. Nothing to write home about. Nice family run place. Mom waits tables while three toddlers run around the restaurant. Like eating in the home of someone you don't know. Food...not great. Service...ok. read more

I have been to this location several times- and it is always fantastic. I have eaten at the sushi places in most of St. Augustine and me and my boyfriend confidently say Wasabi is the best. The fish is always fresh, the rice perfectly seasoned. We only get sushi so I cannot speak to other menu items. The service is quick and considerate and the sushi chef here is pleasant and does a beautiful job on rolls both simple and complex. I usually get the Sunset Boulevard roll, they have delicious spicy tuna, and spider rolls and their Wasabi roll and the Spendid roll was our favourite. Can't wait to be back again! read more

Sushi was fresh, and really good . We were 6 people and eat like crazy. Service was amazing. I recommend this place.

Again...coming from Cali...I assumed this place was gonna b aiiight. But it was pretty good! Sushi was made right....gyoza was on point...service was good...considering it was pretty busy ...and resto was clean. Definitely impressed by the outcome especially from this location. If your in a Japanese food fix...around St. Augustine...hit this place up. read more

Runny salad, a handful of lettuce with tasteless ginger dressing floating in water. She forgot the miso soup I ordered and kept leaning over me at the bar to put orders up for the sushi chef. Who does that? The beer was luke-warm and it took way too long to get two rolls. There were 8 people here when I walked in and it took 30 minutes. When I sent the salad back saying that i did not want it, she looked at me as if I was a Kimono Dragon!! Did not say a word nor ask why. I know there is a bit of a language issue here, but customer service is a universal concept. Right? The rolls were below average and yes, they tried to charge me for the salad! There are much better options!!! read more

Not terrible, but no great shakes. Ginger salad dressing in particular was crap - the first indicator of the blah to come. Just blah.

If you must get a sushi fix then stop in hear. If you can wait 10 more mins goto Sakura on San Marco street in Downtown St. Augustine.

My friend and I went shopping at Saks and were hungry, we fell into this place nearby and were so surprised it was super fresh and excellent. Well definitely come back. read more

Yum! On an unplanned stopover in St. Augustine, we happened across this Japanese restaurant in a strip mall near our hotel. Yelp reviews were encouraging, so we gave it a shot. So glad we did! Our party of three ordered a ton of food, the best of which was the lobster roll. No, wait, maybe it was the salmon sushi. Or the eel. My daughter votes for the lobster roll. Really, it was all top notch. Super nice waitress. This restaurant is an unexpected gem. We will go back for lunch tomorrow on the way out of town. What better recommendation is there? read more

This place has great sushi! The miso soup was very good!! A great place with great prices!

Went for dinner last night and had some of the freshest tasting and flavorful sushi I've had in years. One item I got was the Crazy Roll (shrimp tempura with smoked salmon topping) and the salmon added the perfect taste to the roll. Quick service, friendly staff who helped us out with the choices on what we wanted. I will definitely return here when I'm in the area. read more

Many chances given here, mostly due to location, and continues to disappoint. Food quality is very poor. Value is also poor. Not very good portion size and lunch specials are average. Sad. read more

Nope. Don't do it. You will get sick. My whole fam was sick all that night and the entire next day. And it was not good food. You had to put soy sauce on things for it to have taste. You've been warned. read more

So we are regular customers to this location and tonight was the last time I will ever go there so there was no adult that ever came to our table only children 12 and under and then we waited for 1 hour and 10 mins 10 to go orders came and went and so we paid $9 for our four bowls of clear broth and left and they never even offered an apology! read more

Great little place! Good fresh, sushi. Fair prices. Sushi prep area clean and visible to guests. Friendly, quick service. The whole package in a place you'd never expect! read more

My husband and I are frequent diners at Wasabi on State Road 16 close to St. Augustine shopping outlets. We have always found the sushi to be fresh and delicious. The restaurant is immaculate and the service is fast and friendly. The lunch special is an amazing value. We are never disappointed. We have travelled across US and Canada and have not found better sushi. Kudos to the family who own and operate this wonderful hidden gem. read more

be forewarned: the sushi rolls here are fairly petite in size, sort of like a tea set version of big people sushi. the prices for the rolls are moderate so perhaps there is a price-size ratio in effect. nonetheless, there are a variety of rolls, all of which are pretty tasty, and are the best value. the volcano roll, with its' warm conch topper is unique and delicious. the rest of the menu struggles, however; stay away from their appetizers especially. i have ordered several different items, all with curious and disappointing results, particularly the chicken yakitori app which was amusingly tiny, mounted on a toothpick, dry, and COLD. stick with the nursery school baby bento size rolls: for the price, it's a bargain-ish sushi fix. **UPDATE** several larger rolls have been added, some with unique ingredients like banana, mango, using soy paper, etc. still moderately priced and consistently pretty good. read more

When this place first opened, I was pretty skeptical. It has won my husband and I over, though! The prices--especially the lunch specials--are great, and the food has always been fresh and delicious. In the past 3 weeks, I've eaten there about 4 times for lunch. For about 7 dollars, I got chicken katsu, vegetables, fried rice, soup, and salad. So, your money will go far here. Service it great, too; the employees are very sweet. Wasabi is now one of my favorite places to dine in St Augustine. Try it! read more

This is our favorite sushi place in town, and we pick up to go orders probably once or twice a week. Great price, and absolutely delicious. I'm picky when it comes to my sushi, and have tried most of the trendy spots in town, but keep coming back to our favorite spot. Fresh and always tasty. Great job Wasabi! read more

I recognize most people lack the dining opportunity of actual "in country dining" for a specific country. Having worked and live for many years in Asia-Pacific region, Wasabi is about as authentic as it gets for sushi presentation, taste and freshness. A great sushi chef who will also depart from the sushi menu and entertain special requests.A rare hidden gem. read more

My first trip yesterday to this restaurant was surprisingly good. It is small, very clean, good service, and the tempura was excellent and reasonably priced. For me, the location is perfect and I plan to make it a regular stop. read more

I love this little hole in the wall , yes it's not much to look at, BUT I feel like there customer service and their food is great!!! I recommend anyone to give them a chance. I love helping out local businesses read more

Went here while on vacation. They seemed to be more interested in satisfying take out orders than dine in ones. Hibachi grill was ok but the sushi was very bland. Perhaps I am used to the sushi places in the DMV but i cannot recommend this place; the sushi was very bland and tasteless. read more

I always pull for the underdog. I thought I would give this place a shot, hoping to be pleasantly surprised. However, I was instead rather disappointed. Green salad was only lettuce, no tomato or cucumber. I ordered salmon, white fish, tuna, and sweet shrimp nigiri accompanied by a California roll. First, the shrimp smelled bad so I immediately placed it in the empty salad bowl. The nigiri was just OK. Not the freshest I ever had. Suggest you drive into St Augustine which I regret not doing. read more

I was on vacation and looking for a break from the usual beach style seafood and so decided to go for some sushi. Wasabi Sushi King was decently close by so we decided to give it a shot. Arrived and ordered drinks and the fried gyoza appetizer. When the gyoza arrived we found that it was not fried but instead pan cooked, there was also quite lot of liquid trapped inside the wrappers so they were pretty bland tasting. For our main course my wife and I ordered sushi platters, that came with salads and miso soup. When the salads arrived the lettuce was covered in water and the small squirt of bright orange "ginger" dressing didn't taste like any ginger dressing I've ever had. I stirred my salad to distribute the dressing but the lettuce was so wet that the dressing ended up running off of it and collecting in the bottom of the bowl as a bright orange watery soupy mess. Neither salad was eaten beyond the first 2 bites. At this point the miso soup was used to wash the taste of the salad out of my mouth. The soup was good but I presume it came from some sort of powdered soup mix. The main course arrived and the sushi and sashimi were good sized but the fish tasted bland and was a bit warmer than I would have liked. The owners children were in the dining area and one baby cried incessantly for about 3/4 the time that I was in the location :| Bill was $50.00 after tip. Verdict? Skip it, go to Steak & Shake. read more

OK sushi, but the service could be polished a lot. Not a smile the whole time we were eating, and the wait person was barely understandable. We ate lunch on a Thursday and it seemed Iike we were interrupting the two guys working there. We won't go back. Food was just OK. read more

I've been twice. Both times my food came then had to wait over ten minutes for my wife's sushi.... They wouldn't even come over to ask how everything was because they could see I was waiting to touch my food to eat with my wife... I can't say how the grilled food was because it was cold before I ate.. I barely touched my food, you think they would offer to make it right, but no... Just said sorry and handed me the over priced bill.... The sushi was ok.... At the check out they told me to tell them next time to hold my food until the sushi was done, Wtf... Like it was my fault for not telling them that people like to eat dinner together and not one at a time.... I told them there won't be a next time, they already had 2 chances. I would recommend you save your money, the Japanese place on US1 and 207 is much much better read more
