“ A lovely hidden gem in Phinney! Sophisticated ambiance in the dining area, super quick service and attentive server, and the food was delicious. The plating was Michelin level fancy but the price was very affordable. Im sad I moved away or else Id come all the time! ”
“ Cozy sushi restaurant with traditional sushi fare and also some Korean flavors. The service was very pleasant and friendly. The sushi was very good and the chirashi was filling with a generous amount of mixed sashimi. ”
“ Just amazing! Everything we tried was fantastic. The chicken karaage was the best Ive had. The sashimi platter was delicious as were the rolls we ordered. The miso soup was also great. Wished we lived closer so we could frequent this place. ”
“ Hidden gem!! This feels like a take out place when you walk in. However, they do have a nice place to sit in the back with a balcony. The sushi is delicious. I recommend the undecided roll. They also have yummy options for appetizers and meals. It was a good break when I walked back from Greenlake. ”
“ Did a pick up order and it was great! Sushi was very fresh and yummy!! The staff were all very friendly upon pick up!! Thanks for a great meal at a great price too! ”
“ If you can pay more and appreciate incredible cuts of fish you must visit this place. The yellowtail sashimi was buttery, and the tuna was rich and dark in color. Will be returning many times more, the staff and food are excellent. Update Second visit during lunch and had the Sashimi Platter. Was very quiet, the fish was delicious and buttery just as before and was served a few bonus pieces of sashimi. ”
“ Tonight was the first time I have tried this spot. I am from out of town so finding a good place is a challenge when you have to rely on the online reviews, I saw some negative reviews of this place but I wonder if they are confusing this sushi restaurant with the one two blocks away on the same street. The food was delicious and the sushi was awesome. I am a snob when it comes to Sushi so when Im saying it was really good Im not just saying it to be nice. The service was good, we got a new waitress who was working her third day on the job, I tend to go easy on new people. Instead of criticism I want to share what she did well for it being only her third day. She was very friendly and instead of pretending to know things she would take the time to go ask so she wouldnt be giving incorrect information. If there is one pointer I would give her it would be to come by the table more often and try to interact with and chat with the customers, maybe see if there is anything they might need from time to time or just have a friendly conversation. Schmoozing is a big part of the job lol. ”
“ We had a wonderful experience at Arigato Sushi. We had the age dashi tofu, the tempura appetizer and a sushi set. Everything was fresh and tasty. Highly recommend this place. ”
