Where is the Best Sushi in Indianapolis, Indiana?
I’ve said it before…will say it again…I really like Japanese food and I love, love, love sushi. But, I am a bit picky. I don’t like restaurants that try to be too creative…and I prefer more traditional rolls. Am not a fan of “fusion” sushi places… Wasabi on 82nd does a fab job! Their sushi is incredibly fresh and there is a large variety of choices. From the traditional rolls (their spicy tuna is divine) to a few “newbies” the owner/manager forced me to try. Overall, I loved everything. Of special note: The Shrimp Tempura and Asparagus was divine…The wait staff and the owner(s) were very attentive, but did not too much. Also, their prices were BEYOND reasonable! Most rolls were between $5 and $8 per roll and they had fab wine choices…Too bad they aren’t located in Chicago…I’d be here at least three times per week!Pros + Great service. Wonderful sushi. Fab wine list. Terrific prices Cons – Didn’t make a reservation, so waited about 20 minutes.
I have always wanted to try sushi and I’m glad I went here first. It helped that I went with people who knew what they were doing so I didn’t try anything off the wall first time out. I have to say we had a group of 6 and sat right down with no wait. The staff there was fast and polite. I can’t wait to go back. I recommend the soft shell crab and the tuna sashimi.Pros + Great Food and ServiceCons – none
This place is best described by calling it the PF Changs of Japenese restaurants. If your familiar with PF Changs you’ll probably understand.It is decorated in a contemporary style, very nice, definately not in a japanese style. In fact this is an all americain restaurant in every way except that they serve sushi.Nice place, nice decorations. Die hard sushi traditionalists beware: They serve their miso with a spoon.The fish was good, and they go out of their way to make the place feel spacious (they waste a lot of open space doing this). And they serve ONLY sushi, so if you have anyone in your group that isn’t a sushi fan, this isn’t the place to go. All the fish was good quality.Pros + Nice environment, good sushiCons – Not traditional, expensive
