" Had a fabulous time at Waka House! The sushi is incredibly fresh and made really well. The staff is friendly and always ready to recommend new dishes. I tried their Happy Valentine roll for the first time, and it was superb. The only downside was the small tables, which made the atmosphere a bit cramped during busy hours. Still, a fantastic sushi experience! " (*Curated Review*)

" Waka House is my go-to sushi place! The ingredients are always fresh, and the flavors are expertly balanced. My favorite is the Southern roll—it’s a unique combo that surprised me! The atmosphere is nice, but sometimes a little too lively for my taste. Otherwise, I can’t recommend this place enough if you’re seeking a great long meal! " (*Curated Review*)

" I was really excited to try Waka House after all the rave reviews. The sushi was indeed fresh and well-prepared. However, I found the service to be a bit slow during peak hours, which detracted from the overall experience. That said, the food itself made up for it, and I appreciate their variety. Would definitely consider returning! " (*Curated Review*)
