Delicious sushi , confident dishes and classy presentation, as well as atmosphere. Don't miss out on the seaweed salad or the rainbow roll (the one rolled up in cucumber ). Best sushi in Des Moines !

Wasabi Chi features some rolls which genuinely have some variety outside your standard fair . Great pricing and and an exceptionally friendly staff make this a must stop on your DSM sushi hit list.

Katelyn Ingersoll

I love the food here! Great sushi and apps, the Pad Thai is so-so. The Chicken Lemongrass Coconut soup is my absolute favorite, it is so fresh but the last few times it has been LOADED with onions .

Patrick McClain

It was our first trip and it was outstanding! We had the Twins roll and the Douglas King. Two things can't be the best at the same time, but they were the best rolls I've had.

Eric G.

Prices are reasonable, the sushi is good, the staff is friendly , and my kids LOVE the Japanese fried rice . You can't lose. The whole menu is good.

Michelle F.

The interior decoration exceeded my expectations and the waiter was great. The salmon is amazing! Pay extra for the fried rice instead of white rice , it is addicting.

Kelly Stokes

Hard to go wrong here. Appetizers, sushi , Thai or Chinese--it's all great!!

Rodrigo Schütz

Best sushi in town ! Go for the rolls. Salmon with avocado , tuna with cucumber and shrimp tempura !

Desarae Veit

The lemon grass and coconut soup is different, very vegetable soup tasting. Cool bazal by toys r us' is better but this is good too. This miso is delicious.

The spicy squid salad is the best I've had anywhere. Best sushi in Des Moines .

Desarae Veit

Great ambiance. The food is good and the combos are filling. The eel and sushi was very good but didn't seem out if ordinary or excessively creative. Just average. I would recommend this place.
