Residents may have noticed that Wasabi Japanese Steakhouse and Sushi Bar didn’t open in October.
But, those who have been craving authentic Asian cuisine have nothing to fear: It is set to open Nov. 13.
“Building inspections took a little longer than planned,” owner Franky Wu says. “It can take up to seven months to get everything done, and we have spent about five months getting the building inspected. Sometimes, the contractors don’t come on time.”
Wasabi will have regular dining tables, eight hibachi tables, a full sushi bar and a special hibachi room for 22 guests. Along with traditional Japanese steakhouse favorites, the restaurant will feature a number of unique sushi rolls on the menu.
Wasabi is located at 203 W. Alexander St., in the Lake Walden Square shopping plaza.
