Went with my partner at her recommendation as she had tried it before with her friends. What we got:1. Chirashi Don: Pretty fresh salmon tuna and swordfish (Compared to other Jap restaurants in Singapore, I won’t be comparing to restaurants in Japan) and I like the generous portion2. Maki Salmon: Very delicious sauce right there hands down one of the best sushi in the shop3. Fried Clayfish: Love the crispy fish skin while the fish meat literally melts into your mouth.Chef in front of the house also does the billing and ordering, kudos to him for running such a busy shop! No reservations, only walk in so you may need to wait when the 15 seats or so are filled up. Only downside is the seats are very squeezy.

Authentic Japanese dining experience, great food and reasonable prices, especially the weekday lunch set menu.Highly recommended. The chef is experienced and individually prepares each dish. The Negitoro is excellent - my favourite!Thumbs up! Will be back for sure.

Very yummy food and great value! No gst or service charge levied, and yet excellent service throughout. This shop has been around for decades, and it's easy to see why there's always a long queue outside. Go early as there is limited seating but the fresh sashimi and seafood are definitely worth the wait! Especially love the chirashi don and scallop mentaiyaki

Updated review: this place has never let me down. They consistently delivers great food - fresh sashimi and other seafood. Have always been recommending this to all my friends.Brilliant hole-in-the-wall place for Japanese food. Reasonably priced and most important of all, tasted excellent. The chirashi-don has about 8 kinds of fresh thick cut sashimi. The perfectly grilled salmon with teriyaki sauce was to die for. Definitely my favourite haunt if I’m craving for Japanese food in Orchard area.

My go to Japanese cuisine at Orchard.Love the sashimi, fresh and worth every buck spent. Lobster salad is also very nice!The cod fish soup is also a must order if you love soupy dish.

Cosy atmosphere with a very friendly boss! I was really impressed by the thick cuts of fresh sashimi and the generosity of ingredients overall. The hamachi kama was super fresh as it was fried upon order but not too oily at the same time. The beef hotpot was also really good as the soup was very tasty. Even the appetisers tasted amazing. Not to mention that the prices are great especially being located in Orchard with no GST and Service charge. Will definitely be back next time!Edit: Do note that they have 2 stores side by side but the one with the green countertop is better.

We visited Wasabi Tei on a Saturday for late lunch, the walk-in wait was immediate. Ordered the Aburi Salmon Maki (18), Aburi Cheese Ebi Maki (14), Kani Karaage (15), Tori Katsu Tamagotoji Teishoku set (14), Torikaraage & Soba Goma (14) and Iced Ocha refillable (2). There's no service charge and GST here. Payment mode is limited to either Cash or Paynow/PayLah.The Kani Karaage is fried to perfection, it was crispy and flavourful. Aburi Salmon Maki not only looks pretty but tasted fantastic with its unique mango sauce. Aburi Cheese Ebi Maki tasted light, and Ebi inside was very crispy. Tori Katsu Tamagotoji Teishoku set came with rice, a salmon sidedish, miso soup and fruit (either orange or watermelon), it very tasty and appetizing. We polished off everything we ordered, although the Torikaraage & Soba Goma wasn't how we expected it to be, can give this a miss.IMO definitely worth a visit and the price is reasonable for the portion they give. The service here is relatively fast and great, and it's ideal for small group of family/friends as they have very limited seats.
