Mister Wasabi is a newly opened modern Japanese restaurant on Jalan Padma in Legian. The venue brings two different experiences under one roof: a relaxed izakaya downstairs, serving Japanese dishes and creative cocktails, and a more intimate dining space upstairs for a leisurely dinner.
The kitchen is led by an Okinawan chef with more than 20 years of experience. The menu is rooted in classic Japanese techniques while adding contemporary combinations, playful details, and elegant presentation.
Dishes worth exploring include Karasumi Ikura, the delicate Ikura Chawanmushi egg custard, miso black cod, Nasu Dengaku, and Wagyu steak served with an umami butter sauce. The menu also offers approachable options for younger guests, such as Hamburg Katsu Curry.
For a closer look at the action, choose a seat at the counter, where you can watch the chef and his team prepare and plate each dish. With its refined yet cosy modern Japanese interior, Mister Wasabi works equally well for cocktails and small plates downstairs or a full dinner upstairs.
