Arigato Sayonara

Highly recommend. The sushi was delicious, fresh and arrived quickly. We came with another couple and their food took a while to arrive after ours, but not a big deal. Our server was attentive and friendly. They have two dining rooms, one room looked like it had a Hibachi set-up.They also offer take-out, which we've also partaken in. It's convenient for a night at home. Great place for sushi, I will be back.

We came here almost two weeks ago to celebrate a birthday and it was a nice experience overall. We had hibachi and they have one room that's set up for hibachi and the other is set up for sushi. Our chef was fun and entertaining and he cooked our steak perfectly. The flavor was very good on the rice, vegetables, steak, and shrimp, and it was really nice to get a small side of noodles with the meal. Service was very good overall too and our waitress was attentive. Drinks were tasty and my wife enjoyed her lemon drop martini while I had a Kirin. It was a nice meal overall and we'd come back again!

Finally found some good sushi in the area!! They have tons of options and SO affordable. Two rolls and a salad or soup for less than $20?! Absolutely. I have gotten takeout twice since discovering this place and it is fresh, good flavor, and delicious. I cannot wait to dine in and try the hibachi as well

This restaurant was confusing to me. I was in town visiting another friend from Ohio. This was a central location for us to meet. When we arrived we decided that Japanese was the choice for dinner. Now I must preface this review by saying that I am actually half Japanese and grew up in Japan as a child for five years. Therefore, I have eaten a lot of authentic Japanese sushi in my life. So as far as this restaurant is concerned, the exterior does not give off the greatest of vibes. It is plain an sort of hidden as it is in a strip mall setting. Then as you enter the restaurant you see Teppanyaki grilles (introduced to America by Benny Hana) to the US to get people to eat Japanese food. The grille is not something that you find in most Japanese restaurants. We ate at the sit down side of the restaurant and ordered sushi. The restaurant was very humid, and good sushi is kept chilled even when it comes to the table. I ordered Unagi (Eel) as I do in any sushi restaurant to gauge the quality of the food. The Unagi was not very cold but not warm enough that it couldn't be eaten. I also ordered a Chi Ra Chi Don (Raw sushi over Sushi Vinegar Rice). The quality of the food was decent, but not outstanding either. So these are a few of the reasons that I only have them 3-Stars.

I start by saying our waitress was absolutely lovely and did a great job. My husband ordered the chicken bento box which was fine. I ordered the shrimp tempura bento box with the Alaska roll. I first ate one of the shrimp and it was tasty, but then I took a bite of the roll, and decided I couldn't eat anymore of the roll because the fish was very clearly not fresh, so I thought, "well, I'll eat the rest of the shrimp and the vegies and rice and just quietly pay and go," but then I saw that one of the other shrimp had the poop vein wrapped around it and deep fried, so I cut open the last shrimp and it also still had the poop vein in it. Part of the deep fried poop vein landed on my rice, so at that point, there really wasn't anything left of my lunch that was edible.I told my waitress that I couldn't eat it or pay for it, and she said that she would let her manager know. The manager came over and I told her about the problems and without saying a word, she angrily snatched the bento off of the table, scattering chopsticks while my husband was still eating. I then could hear her talking about me from across the room.When she returned, she informed me that the shrimp were always like that and next time not to order it. She was obviously angry with me and didn't even address the sushi. I told her that we would not be returning, and she said, "well that is your choice." We then paid for mu husband's food and our beverages and left.

A true hidden gem tucked away in an assuming plaza in Madison (located next to Longhorn steakhouse)! I've been here several times now, a couple times before their expansion and a couple after. While I can't give a review on the hibachi side- I have nothing but good things to say about their sushi! A friend introduced me to this spot pre pandemic and I have been hooked ever since. You will not find a spot that offers a better deal while also maintaining the quality of food! At least I personally haven't. Is this the absolute best sushi? Hard to say as ultimately we are landlocked here in Nashville, but none the less there's still good and bad sushi to be had. I prefer only the good kind but to each their own. Arigato has the good stuff when you combine the price point, taste and quality. Arigato offers an impressive variety of really creative rolls. You can also see pics on their walls which is very helpful visually speaking. I think this spot is particularly good for beginners as there are plenty of rolls that are not raw yet still has lots of good raw options. I personally like both so I appreciate their offers. Moreover, Arigato is the only menu I have come across offering a choice in the rolls you want for your sushi combo meal! Meaning you have a list of rolls to choose from for a certain price point. I.Love.This. sooo much! Most sushi places will offer a combo but on their terms, such as a California with either philly, spicy tuna/salmon or alaksan roll - for example. For me I like picking from their Arigato special sushi menu- either two or three rolls for under $25 (a steal!)The price point honestly can't be beat when you choose one of these combos. A la carte, the rolls are similar to any other place you might find sushi. The deal really lies within these combos. Beyond sushi, I can tell some of their other hibachi or bento combos are also decently priced as well.Lastly, the service has always been pleasant here. All the ladies are alway kind and attentive. No complaints here. Also, it's never been too bad of a wait time either. I can't wait to go back. Don't wait. Bring your fellow sushi loving friends/ lovers/ family. You won't be disappointed.

Really good hibachi. The cook was awesome. The sushi was mediocre though. It was definitely priced well, so if course that's expected. The first time I came it was lunch so the prices were pretty low. The dinner menu is medium priced but not cost prohibitive. Service was good too. I will likely go back, but it'll definitely be lunch time

The service was great. The tempura batter was light and tasty. When we heard the sushi on the wall was the Cadillac of rolls, we had to try it. It was amazing! And the pricing was great for what we got. We will be back!

I wouldn't go here again, even if it was free! We were there to celebrate our grandson's graduation from high school last night. Our son-in-law ordered asteak hibachi dinner to share with his 2 young daughters. Our grandson that we were celebrating also ordered a steak and chicken hibachi dinner. The server understood the orders and the chef was also told the same when he verified the meals with everyone before he started cooking. After he cooked the 2 steaks, the chef cut them up and gave 1 steak to our son-in-law and split the other steak between our granddaughters. Our grandson didn't get any steak. When our grandson asked about his steak he then realized what had happened and tried to brush it off. I didn't realize what had happened and asked our grandson where his steak was. The 2 guys discussed it with the chef, and the chef told them that he gave 1 steak to our son-in-law and split 1 steak between the girls. He then realized his error and wasn't happy at all that about the meal sharing and that it messed him up. He shook his head, obviously quite unhappy and didn't say or do anything else! Our son-in-law realized what had happened and gave his steak to our grandson - so he didn't have a protein then. Our grandson and son-in-law were then embarrassed about the situation and how it turned out. The chef just continued cooking the rest of the food and ignored all of us.The server heard what was going on and came over and explained to the chef how it was supposed to be split, which was exactly what he had down on his paper and what he discussed with each of them before the meal when he verified with everyone what they had ordered. I asked our server if we could get another steak so everyone would have food. The chef was mad when our server brought him the steak and he had to cook it. We were in the middle of the restaurant and it was obvious that there was a problem. There was no apology from the chef or a manager or anyone. The "fried rice" was barely fried. It was still looked white. The chef also didn't ask anyone if they wanted spicy fried rice either. It looked like that he was doing the bare minimum - just what he had to do to get by and get done. He didn't interact with us at all except when he had to ask something about our food.I ordered sushi instead of hibachi. One of the rolls I ordered was supposed to have crunchy salmon skin. I asked the server about the crunchy salmon skin before I ordered it. I verified that there would be crunchy salmon skin on the roll because it was new to me. I asked the server and she went and asked the manager who came over and told me that the roll had salmon in it and the skin was crunchy. It wasn't crunchy in my roll at all and it wasn't supposed to have salmon in it. I didn't see or taste any in it either. She asked if I wanted crispy salmon skin on it and I told her I did. She took my plate and brought it back with a pale yellow topping. She said that was the crunchy salmon skin. It wasn't like any crunchy salmon skin I've had before. It was pale yellow and more like a semi-crunchy breadcrumb instead of crispy fried salmon skin.Our server was very nice and did a great job. We were really pleased with her. She was the only person that smiled and did what she could to help us have a good meal.

We love Arigato!!! The sushi is amazing, and we love that they have hibachi now. Cant recommend this place enough.
