Great place to have a nice meal that won’t break the bank. ”
“ It's a very nice restaurant in Auburndale area. It's clean and service is quick. We have been here for a few times for lunch. My son really likes the hibachi combo. And I like the sushi. ”
“ During our tour and judging of the Polk County Parade of Homes, our team stopped off for lunch at Wakame. The staff were very pleasant and attentive. It was easy to order and there are many lunch special items available. I chose the 6 piece sashimi lunch that also came with soup and 6 pieces of California roll. We added Edlemans as a starter too. It was all delicious. The restaurant was clean and inviting as were the rest rooms. I would recommend this place for a yummy meal. ”
“ Amazing food, the sushi was delicious and super creative. Definitely recommend! I got the moon roll and it honestly feels like the best roll I’ve ever had. ”
“ Delicious Sushi & other dishes! Service is always extremely friendly. Enjoyable dinner and reasonable cost. ”
“ Tried this place for the first time. We loved everything about it. The place is cozy and the service is great. We took our time to look at the menu and decided to go with a Super Poke Bowl and a Chicken Udon. Both dishes were of good portions and flavorful. My steak could have had a bit of salt but I'm really did not bother me since it is easier to add salt than remove it. Waiting time for our food was normal and really no complaints. Definitely would come back if we are in the area. ”
