Interior was cozy. Staff were attentive, although waitstaff was short (many more cooks than waiters). Oysters in panko, chicken karaage, and gyoza were nice crunchy appetizers. Especially the oysters and chicken had good seasoning. We tried 3 rolls (California, Lynnwood, and salmon lover) all three were good, tad loosely packed, tasted very fresh. Hubby got spicy garlic ramen while I got the tonkotsu with chili added. Both were good although my tonkotsu tasted strongly of cumin which was not bad just different. Char siu was thickly cut while fairly tender. Soy egg was solidly cooked (I prefer a runny yolk).

One of the best things here is their sushi menu: every roll has a clear picture, so you can instantly see what it looks like, not just read the ingredients. It’s super helpful and makes choosing so much easier.
The sushi itself is incredibly fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. Generous portions, tender fish, and rolls that actually look like the photos — which is rare and honestly amazing.
The atmosphere is cozy, the staff is friendly, and the whole experience is exactly what you want when you’re craving really good sushi.

They have a very nice and big open kitchen/bar area where you can watch them make sushi, great for people who wants to watch their food being made. The servers were nice and friendly. Atmosphere was cute and they decorated for Holloween when I was there. You can tell definitely put effort into plating. All of the food we got looked very nice. We ordered two sushi rolls and they were okay. The roll with fried shrimp inside one of the tools was definely not freshly made because the tempura coating was all soggy. We also ordered baked mussels, the mussels themselves tasted a bit strong, but they definitely loaded it up with the spicy imitation crab salad. Personally I’d recommend making it more spicy more it hinders the taste from the mussels. The mussels could also use more time in the oven. The oyago udon I ordered wasn’t too pleasant either. Both the chicken and the eggs were overcooked. I got a piece of chicken breast and a piece of chicken thigh. The chicken tasted like Costco rotisserie chicken to me. It was so dry that I had to give up on eating the chicken. The “poached” egg was also overcooked. I would recommend making a batch of poached eggs on the side and just crack the eggs into the bowl whenever someone orders an item with the poached egg. The rest of the udon was decent, nice warm broth and a good amount of udon. One pleasant surprise for me was the wasabi they use!

Food is amazing the best sushi I have ever had it’s so fresh and smooth it still tastes great 3 days later. You can’t go wrong with any tower. The only reason I gave them a 4 for atmosphere is because the store next door thinks the music should be loud like your at a club so you could hear the base through the wall and I was on the other side of the restaurant. It’s not their fault but just thought people may want a heads up but the food is fabulous every time

The question on my local Facebook page was, “Where can I find a teppanyaki restaurant?” You know, the kind of place where the table has a large grill in the middle. The chef wheels out a cart with tools and ingredients and puts on a show while cooking your food. I loved teppanyaki when I was a kid so I jumped into the comments to see what was available. There were a couple of places in Lynnwood that I added to my “Places to try” file. One of them was Wild Wasabi.
I hopped in the car and headed north, excited to see an onion volcano and have shrimp thrown in my mouth. Google Maps guided me to a sketchy looking former shopping area. It must have been quite the place at one time, because there was a huge parking lot for the few surviving businesses. I picked a spot close enough for convenience and far enough away to let me get a few steps in for the day.
The front of the restaurant stands out from the decrepit closed places by being new and clean. The inside was also well maintained. There were a few tables by the windows and a neat sushi bar along the back wall. I looked around, but there was no teppanyaki grill in view. I was the victim of another Facebook lie. Dang!
A woman wearing a skirt that was far too short came out to lead me to a table. Another woman wearing the other half of a proper length skirt poured me a cup of tea. It was a cold day and I hoped that the women had other clothes to wear when they went home after work.
The menu was a few pages of quality graphics. It featured various sushi options, some teriyaki dishes, donburi and bento. I ordered a Spider Roll and the Kitchen Bento. The waitress brought me a salad and miso soup to enjoy while I waited for my meal.
For those of you unfamiliar with sushi, there are no spiders in a Spider Roll. Instead, there is a fried softshell crab inside. The roll is cut so that the ends have the legs poking out, making it difficult to eat. I easily ignore the difficulty because they taste fantastic. Wild Wasabi’s version is as good as any I have tried.
I like bento boxes because you get a variety of things to try. The Kitchen Bento included gyoza, fried shrimp, tempura vegetables, rice and a choice of sushi and a protein. I picked the california roll and chicken katsu. Everything was tasty and I scarfed it up.
I knew from the menu that the bill was going to be ridiculous. It did not disappoint. My lunch was $50. It was startlingly easy to tap my card on the little machine the waitress brought out. It was not at all easy to think about the hole in my bank account. At least it bought me enough food to keep me full for the rest of the day.

Got takeout. The gyoza was ok but the California roll was terrible. The roll was misshapen and tasted old. The avocado was browning and the rice was thick and gloopy and the rolls were falling apart. Cucumber to avocado to krab mix ratio was different in every roll. Also there was bits of another roll that we didn’t order stuck to the bottom of the California roll. The rice on the seared salmon nigiri was also burned. How does that even happen. It all seems so careless and we were very disappointed. Also kept finding black fibers on the rice…
Update: the guy we talked to was super nice and was able to refund the roll and apologized. I hope it improves in the future!

I have come here at least 20 times over the last decade and their food is always fantastic, services always excellent and friendly, the atmosphere is good, and the prices are reasonable. They have plenty of parking as well. There is honestly no complaints you could make for such a wonderful sushi restaurant.

Wild Wasabi was a great experience. Our server Ai-Mi was so sweet, attentive, and made great recommendations like the Restaurant Week Omakase for $50 & the Hamachi Carpaccio! Everything we ordered was fantastic and overwhelmingly tasty with umami flavors! Thank you Wild Wasabi! We will be returning every time we are in the area!

A Disappointing Return After Years Away
I was incredibly excited to return to this sushi restaurant after several years away, but unfortunately, my experience left much to be desired. What I encountered was some of the sloppiest sushi preparation and presentation I’ve ever seen.
The Food Experience
I ordered three rolls, and two of them were practically drowning in chili sauce. The overwhelming sweetness completely masked every other flavor – the smoked salmon, shrimp, and all the delicate nuances that make sushi special were completely lost. All I could taste was that overpowering sweet chili sauce, which defeated the entire purpose of ordering sushi.
The Tai Tai roll, while tasty in its simplicity, suffered from extremely sloppy presentation. The roll was so poorly constructed that ingredients were falling out before I could even take a bite. It was clear that proper rolling technique had been abandoned in favor of speed.
Adding to the careless preparation, they simply threw whole pieces of cilantro on top as garnish rather than finely chopping it. Eating large, uncut cilantro leaves with sushi was unpleasant and showed a complete disregard for proper garnish technique – another example of corners being cut in the kitchen.
Service and Atmosphere
The restaurant itself maintains its elegant atmosphere, and the menu reads like something you’d find at a fine dining establishment in Bellevue – which is genuinely a compliment to their ambitions. The waitstaff were present and kind throughout the meal, though there were some minor professionalism concerns with the uniform standards.
The Real Issue: Craftsmanship
Watching the young kitchen crew (who all appeared to be in their twenties), I could see they were rushing through orders despite the restaurant not being particularly busy. This speaks to a larger problem: the loss of traditional sushi craftsmanship. Sushi is an art form that requires patience, precision, and respect for the ingredients. What I witnessed was a clear lack of training in these fundamental principles.
The decline in technique was so noticeable that I couldn’t finish my meal. While I considered asking to only pay for what I could actually eat, I chose not to create a scene. However, I did express my concerns to the waitress.
Final Thoughts
This restaurant has all the right elements – elegant atmosphere, ambitious menu, and attentive service – but they’re failing at the most crucial aspect: the food itself. The younger generation of sushi chefs seems to lack both the training and appreciation for the artistry that makes sushi special.
Until they address the fundamental issues with food preparation and invest in proper training for their kitchen staff, I cannot recommend this establishment, despite its potential and beautiful setting.
