Arrigato seems fairly priced and service is prompt. The staff was friendly and nice. Food was prepared quickly and plated neatly as well. The only reason 4/5 is that the place just doesn't seem that well taken care of. Inside could be so much nicer with a little more care and finishing. All in all, it's a great sushi spot!

The sushi was pretty good, unfortunately our server was super rude and off putting. He was rude when he seated us, didn’t offer us any drinks, and then at the end he rushed us out with the check even though we mentioned wanting desert. We were there an hour and a half before close. The table next to us asked him what appetizer he would suggest and he responded with “I really don’t care.” There was another guy that would fill up our water and check on our table that was very nice and pleasant but our server was awful. I wouldn’t return because off the service alone.

Delicious, and I’m not even a sushi fan! Everything we tried was so yummy!

Fantastic food and friendly staff with manners (hard to find these days) but they make you feel welcome. I definitely suggest this spot if you're looking for great sushi.

Returning customer here and this place has come such a long way. I really love their quality fresh fish and the servers and hosts are always so friendly and positive. Order the “oh sushi” roll and thank me later!!!

Wide selection of sushi rolls. We went on a Friday with 6 people. Place was full and still wait staff was attentive. Ordered a bunch of rolls plus the spicy edamame (and they were spicy). All the food was good. They were running a special happy hour 'all day, every day'. that meant approx $10 per roll. Great price for such good food.

This place had really good reviews and photos so since we are from out of town we decided to give it a shot. From the moment we walked in we were greeted by a young Asian guy with a tatted arm and a neck full of hickeys. Everything else about him was fine, he was polite but the hickeys so unprofessional. Then there was a young white female waitress who would not stop singing to the music and talking about her personal business and cursing up a storm. She was so distracting that we could not even enjoy ourselves. The sushi chef also sat down with the party next to us to share a beer with them while we were still waiting for our meal. I just felt this environment to be so unprofessional.We did not order any rolls, which that is what they might be popular for. We ordered the chirashi (premium). I highly do not recommend that. The slices were cut so thick and were watery (but was displayed very pretty) As if they defrosted the fish and didn't soak the water out of the fish. Overall was a very unpleasant experience and would not recommend or return.

Food quality seems to have gone down and prices have gone up. People were still nice.

Started with the spicy garlic edamame and eh not that good, just get the plain. The scallop lover roll looked extravagant, however the roll tasted DRY. It also lacked any flavor at all and I had no interest on eating it after the first bite - it was kind of gross. The other 2 rolls however were delicious and I did like the nigiri! Not the best quality fish but decent for the price.They should extend their hours. Multiple people waiting for a table still at 8-8:30pm. Last call at 9:15pm so we were rushed to order once we got a table at 9pm. Slightly annoying that the hostess made it seem at 8:30 that we wouldn’t get a table so we went elsewhere despite putting our name in. About 10 min later she called to say our table was ready, which wasted more time.

Best place in SLO for sushi. Service is great, food is great. Blue crab hand roll is a must have.
