Wasabi Bistro is discreetly tucked away inside The Breakers hotel. Was greeted by one of the staff at the entrance of the hotel. All of the staff was outstanding during our dining. Ordered two of their signature dishes: the Baked Scallop Special and the Papaya Seafood Motoyaki, which were both excellent! Looking forward to my next trip to Waikiki so I can make a return visit to Wasabi Bistro.

The beef steak was so tough to chew, so we ended up couldn’t eat it. We told the waiter about it. The restaurant manager/owner didn’t even try to resolve the problem of their steak with us. We were fully charged for the steak that we couldn’t chew at all!!! What an awful experience!!! We will NO LONGER going back to Wasabi Bistro!!!

They accommodated our kids well and we loved the unique dishes including Wasabi number 1, the sushi, tempura, eggplant miso, and hamachi special. Lovely ambiance took me right back to Japan.

First example of a restaurant being different by having HIGH QUALITY ingredients. You can tell they care about the way the food is cooked and how it is presented. The servers were professional and kind. Would recommend to anyone who is interested in sushi in Waikiki.
