Came here for the $20 AYCE sushi.
Restaurant is clean and modern looking. Service was good. It's a BYO. Some of the pieces of fish in the sushi roll were a little hard – but I imagine that's because they try to use every last piece of fish since it's AYCE.
Overall, the rolls were very tasty. My favorite was the kamikaze roll. I actually like that they are smaller and more "bite size". I will definitely be back!
Enthusiastic 4 stars for a fantastic value with well-above-average food.
I met my sister for a quick AYCE sushi fest, hopeful to steer her away from her first love, Sushi X. Mission accomplished!
Arigato is a nice atmosphere, decent service, low-key kind of place. Caution to those who are used to other AYCE portion sizes – the portions here are full sized. They also have a selection of huge special rolls included in the AYCE.
Here's what we sampled:
Free appetizers – deep fried tuna bites (awesome) and spicy tuna meatballs (just okay, not really my thing)
Miso soup – good, average
Tempura – excellent, especially the onion and shrimp
Green salad – huge and surprisingly wonderful, included avocado and terrific ginger dressing
Veggie gyoza – pretty yummy
Edamame – super fresh, but they didn't have salt and advised to use soy sauce, not my fav
Sushi (assorted) – good, not the best I've ever had, but certainly satisfying
Viagra roll (yes, really) – this was a soft shell crab creation – not my thing, but well prepared and presented
Fruit – pineapple and orange – served as dessert (and no other desserts on regular menu).
Dinner for 2 (and we ate until we were sick), including tip, $50. BYOB, we made a reservation but it was unnecessary on a Friday night.
I look forward to returning!
Only giving two stars because the service here was friendly. The food pretty much gets 0 stars for me, which is so disappointing when I was recommended here by a friend who loves it! Maybe it was just an off day, but the fish on top of my sushi looked like it had white chalk on it. The rice tasted so mushy and old. The flavors were really bland and I'm so disappointed I wasted $20 and even ate mayo when I didn't know it was in a roll. Cute oranges at the end made me happy at least.
I've been here 3 times since moving to the area.
For AYCE sushi it's a fantastic deal. The fish is always fresh, the service is good, and it even tastes good. It's not traditional by any means, the sushi (nigiri) menu is quite limited, and most of the rolls are americanized, but still delicious.
Any of their spicier rolls are good, the pepper crusted tuna salad is very tasty, and the miso soup is always hot.
* They don't have iced tea, they do have hot green tea. It gets a tad cold in there, so bring a jacket.
It is AYCE, don't order more than you can eat, order a few pieces or rolls at a time.
Love this sushi spot. Been here twice for AYCE since I moved into town 2 weeks ago. It's nothing like the other places I've been too. They specialize in their special rolls for AYCE. Keep in mind that means NO SASHIMI ::insert sad face here::! They also only let you submit appetizer options once. Just something to note. Their special rolls are ABSOLUTELY FABULOUS. The kamikaze is my ABSOLUTE favorite sushi roll of ANY place to date. It's a lighter roll with a little kick (SPICY MAYO ALL OVER MY BODY PLEASE) and 3 types of tobiko/ikura on top to give you that popping texture. PLEASE get this roll when you come here. I do think they should offer more rolls that are not tempura style since the AYCE menu is a bit saturated with fried rolls. Either way, rolls are outstandingly delicious. Their appetizers are also out of this world. Couldn't bring them to 5 stars based on other AYCE sushi places offering sashimi and the option to order the apps/little plates at any point during your meal. Service, food presentation, and flavor are all 5 stars. Give this place a try especially if you're feeling adventurous sushi rolls! Make a reservation if it's a weekend; place is cozy!
I hate how I had to be turned away from eating delicious sushi, despite hearing raving reviews from one of my close friends. This review is based only on the short interaction I had with their hostess, not their food I never got a chance to try. The hostess immediately took a look at us, and asked if we had a reservation. We said no, and she responded that they were awaiting a large group of people to come, and would not be able to take us. I thought it was odd, especially since the tables (there were tables of two, and four nearby) were not prepared for this "large group". But I said fine and left. Mind you, another couple had came in seconds after and they were immediately seated! How unfair is that?! She didn't even ask the couple if THEY had a reservation. I was led to believe they were slightly racist, since I was pretty much the only brown face there with my friend. So I'm pretty unhappy.
Their all you can eat menu is about $4 cheaper than I've seen around, which is actually a big difference when you are trying to figure out whether to just buy a couple rolls and an app or go for the all you can eat menu. Can't beat it for the price. The sushi is actually really good. I enjoyed all the rolls. The staff was really friendly and they even gave us some complimentary pieces. I'll definitely be back again.
Best ayce around. Sushi is always fresh and delicious. If you're ordering appetizers, beware the portions since they're larger than most ayce places. They also don't have desert but they do have scrumptious fresh fruit! Be sure to make a reservation, they're a smaller place so you want to make sure you'll be seated!
