Not exactly centrally located, you will find Wasabi on the north end of what is known as Belltown. The service is quick and friendly, the atmosphere is quiet and welcoming. Tried a "bento box" lunch - it was HUGE. Huge, but good. Tempura was light and crunchy, teriyaki was salty sweet. Even the green tea capped off a nice meal.
