Wasabi Sushi Bar (Clayton), Saint Louis

Sushi is a complex world of flavors, textures, and colors that may seem intimidating at first. Wasabi Sushi Bar’s spread of more than 48 rolls includes simple california and yellowfin rolls for the sushi newbie as well as adventurous items for those delving deeper into the realm of maki.

Yellowfin tuna and cucumber slices fill the simpler rolls, and shrimp tempura and avocado cut the delicate brine flavor of barbecued eel in other offerings. The sushi chefs also liberally sprinkle a housemade tempura crunch topping at the sushi bar, and stir-fried egg noodles are combined with vegetables and served either hot or cold.
