The conversations between the server and the sushi chef were very enjoyable and interesting to say the least. The rolls are all handmade to order. The rolls are all set at a reasonable price. The server I believe his name was Dave was extremely nice as well as funny

Sean has brought the inland empire the best quality of both fresh sushi and a great environment. After trying from place like Martinis, one spot, Takumi among other locations; Sushi Arigato Trumps them all. Sean is an artist, nowadays I just sit at the bar and he knows exactly what I want and need, and all rolls are varied. This is hands down the best location in town, and perhaps in the region. Thank you Sean and staff for always providing elite service. I could over sell this place and it will always over perform. Come here.

Took a gamble on a random sushi spot that had good reviews and it paid off. Sean the Chef was super friendly and treated us like we'd been coming for years even for our very first time. Made us cool off menu stuff and really enjoyed it!!

Never have I experienced a Sushi bar like this before… it was almost like being in a scene of Cheers where everyone that walks in is a regular. We sat up at the bar, chatting with the Owner and his staff while watching him make his masterpieces. The candid conversations with the owner and his loyal patrons were pretty entertaining too. The picture below doesn’t do this place any justice. His Sushi was not just Instaworthy for photos but really good!
