Wasabi: OPEN
/Wasabi, the new Japanese place on Fulton at Waverly, is open for business! For now, they're offering 10% off of a meal to celebrate grand opening.
Sorry I didn't get better shots, but it was a snap decision to dine when I saw the flags heralding the open doors.
Mr. Lesterhead and I enjoyed sushi there last night. First impressions: very friendly service, good prices, some tasty special rolls. We split the spicy roll combo and two special rolls (Birthday roll and Christmas roll). Wasabi offers several roll combos- 3 rolls with soup AND salad for around ten bucks (this is a lot of food for $10! Who else gives both soup AND salad?). The combo rolls were on the small side, but tasty nonetheless. The Christmas roll was fine, but the Birthday roll was excellent (shrimp tempura with some other delicious ingredients).
The space is small but nice- maybe 3-4 booths and a few small tables. For both of us who left stuffed - sushi and green tea - the bill was under $30.
I was surprised more people weren't there, but I wonder if being in between the two C train exits means not as many people walk past? Maybe it just opened last night?
If you happen to live down this way, definitely check it out.
(I did not look closely at the check to see if they had taken 10% off.)
