| Japanese Food
We have had a running debate here wheere I work about which Japanese steak house is better, Wasabi, or Kanpai Tokoyo. What do you guys think? I prefer Kanpai. |

| I've eaten at Wasabi a couple of times and the first time I ate there I thought it was really good, but not so much the second time. Never been to Kanpai Tokoyo. |

| It just seems to me that Kanpai is more authentic. They salt and pepper everything to death at Wasabi. Don't get me wrong, it is good too. I don't think I have had any bad Japanese food. | |

| I haven't been to a japanese steakhouse in a while, this is making me hungry. They just opened a Wasabi here, didn't realize it was a chain, and I thought it was primarily sushi.
I used to love the one in Savannah, can't remember the name.

I haven't been in years.
There is a good Japanese steakhouse about 5 minutes from my house. We love going there on occasion, but with two of my kids eating the food, too it gets a tad expensive...that and the fact I can't resist the filet, shrimp and scallop dinner.
