" My experience was a mixed bag. While I found the sushi very fresh and tasty, especially the specials during happy hour, the service left something to be desired. We had a long wait before we were approached by our server, which was frustrating. The ambiance was nice, but it got unusually loud, making it hard to have a conversation. Would I come back? Yes, for the food, but hoping for better service next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" As a sushi lover, I've been to countless sushi spots, and Wakame stands out! Their sushi is not only fresh but also properly made—with Japanese flavors intact. The green mussels were simply divine. However, I feel that the seating is a bit cramped during busy hours. Despite the small wait times, this is still a fantastic place for a sushi fix. Will definitely return during happy hour! " (*Curated Review*)

" Wakame is such a pleasant establishment! We really enjoyed the patio dining. The environment makes a big difference. My husband ordered pad thai, and he loved it! My sushi was fresh, but I was hoping for more creative options. The servers were great, but the wait for food was longer than expected, which was a bit disappointing. " (*Curated Review*)

" This was my first time visiting Wakame, and I was really looking forward to it based on the rave reviews. However, I encountered a long wait, and when we finally got seated, the service felt rushed. I ordered the rolls, which were impressive but didn't quite live up to the hype in terms of flavors. Still, I'll give it another try on a less crowded night. " (*Curated Review*)

" While the sushi was good, my meal felt uninspired, and I was hoping for a bit more creativity in the dish presentations. Service was decent but felt a bit rushed during peak hours. I appreciate the casual vibe, but I will be looking for something new next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" I was disappointed by the food quality. The dishes lacked seasoning and seemed rushed, which is surprising given the buzz around this place. The service staff didn’t seem adequately trained, which made the meal less enjoyable than anticipated. I hope they can improve their consistency; I'd hate to see a place with such potential go downhill. " (*Curated Review*)

" What a delightful experience at Wakame! This place keeps its high standards consistently! I ordered the Wakame Favorite A during happy hour, and it did not disappoint. Everything is very flavorful and presented well. I must say, the service was impeccable! Our server was attentive and ensured we had everything we needed without being pushy. This is definitely a place I will return to! " (*Curated Review*)
