Arigato Japanese Steak & Seafood House

We went on New Years Eve around 5pm. Had a wait of a little over an hour, which is what the hostess quoted when we arrived. Sat at the bar and ordered a couple of drinks to pass the time. The bartender wasn't the most attentive, but he was filling drinks for the whole restaurant. Once we were seated, our service was amazing. I believe our waiters name was Isaiah, but it was loud when he introduced himself. He was very kind and kept up with the table very well. The chef was great and entertained the two kids seated at the table with us and was very interactive. Once the chef was done and had left the table, Isaiah promptly brought to go boxes and our check, which was great. All in all, we were there about 2 1/2 hours with the wait time and cooking. We had a great time and loved the food.

Rick was the BEST chef we have EVER had in all our years of going to any restaurant! He was so friendly, talked with everyone at the table, gave such a great show, and made hilarious jokes! Our servers were attentive and on top of everything. Have a mushroom allergy, and they were on top of that as well. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!! ASK FOR RICK!!

The ambiance in this restaurant is amazing. It's always crowded. The sing happy birthday to you. The food is good. It's always cool watching them prepare your food right in front of you. Chef was friendly as was the server. Be ready to spend some money though. All this greatness costs money.
