Owned by Santa Rosa local Guy Fieri of Food Network fame (“Guy’s Big Bite”), Tex Wasabi’s mirrors Fieri spontaneous, affable and irreverent style. The drinks are fine. The sushi, although by no means traditional, is also fine. So is the BBQ. But, what stands out are the bartenders and servers, who are “entertaining, friendly and charismatic.” Another thing that stands out is how loud this place can get. Beware the gong. Every now and then, a bartender will bang the ear-piercing device for no apparent reason. One time, I heard him yell out, “I’m not wearing any underwear!” followed by the bang of the gong which was then followed by the thunderous hoots and hollers of the patrons.
