“Outstanding sushi! Wasabi has a diverse menu with plenty of options, but their sushi stands out above everything else. It might not beat authentic sushi in Japan, but for Jacksonville, NC, it’s easily one of the best spots in town. Definitely a must-visit if you’re craving fresh, quality sushi!”

“While it is a small shop, they have a decent assortment of Japanese snacks, kimchi, daikon, to a small freezer section seafood, takoyaki and Naruto fish cake. And if you’re lucky, you’ll catch some freshly made futomaki sushi rolls! ? Best of all they have the best coffee Suntory Boss and sometimes Bikkle drinks!”

5 Shogun Japanese Steak House

4.3 Superb 250 Reviews

1250 Western Blvd, Jacksonville

• Take-Out

“We decided to try Shogun Japanese Steakhouse on a Saturday evening and were glad we made a 5 PM reservation — the place was already packed at that hour. The restaurant offers both teppanyaki seating, where the chef cooks right in front of you, and traditional tables. We opted for teppanyaki, a bit skeptical at first since the chef really makes or breaks the experience.\n\nOur party of seven filled a table to ourselves, which was a plus. Both our server and chef were excellent, and the food was even better. We ordered a mix of steak, shrimp, lobster, and sashimi. The chef was personable without being over-the-top, and he cooked everything perfectly — the flavors were spot-on.\n\nWe came in with modest expectations but left on a food high. Great service, delicious food, and a fun night out with the family. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a lively and flavorful dinner.”

4010 West 130th Street, Hawthorne

“Just had a great experience with Diago. I’m in Studio City, and had been having issues with my gate sticking halfway when closing. Martin came out, quickly found the issue, and made the repair without pushing me to replace anything unnecessarily. Super professional guy.”

“Really enjoyed this AYCE spot. The fish quality was fresh and really good, and I especially liked the hibachi options. The hibachi steak was fire. They’re also very generous with the yum yum sauce. The staff was friendly and the service was great. Our waiter Andy was especially nice and made sure we were well taken care of. Definitely would come back.”
