Sushi, drinks and the atmosphere were great but the service was rather slow considering we had only ordered one roll and an appetizer.

Arigato Sushi never disappoints!
Huge thanks to Daryl, the maĂźtre dâ, who runs the front of house like a fabulous orchestra conductorâeverything flows smoothly, effortlessly, and with genuine warmth. The service here consistently shines.
The food is outstanding across the board. Our favorite is the mushroom veggie roll, which is absolutely crave-worthy. They also offer an incredible tofu steak and a miso cod that even non-fish lovers rave aboutâtruly something for every kind of eater.
The quality of the wasabi and ginger is exceptional and will honestly spoil you for most other sushi restaurants. Itâs that good.
Be sure to make a reservationâthey offer both indoor and outdoor seating, and the outdoor heaters keep things comfortable even on cooler evenings. The food is excellent, the staff are lovely, and the overall experience is consistently top-notch.
Highly recommend. đŁâš

Best sushi in SB hands down! Thanks again Daryl :)
I didnât even get the chance to dine at Arigato Sushi because the manager, Darrel, flat-out refused to seat us. The restaurant had around 11 open tables, but he claimed every single one was âreserved.â His attitude was rude and dismissive, acting like we were a problem just for showing up as paying customers.
Itâs ridiculous to be turned away from an almost empty restaurant with that kind of attitude. If this is how they treat people at the door, I canât imagine how they treat actual guests. I wonât be coming back, and I wouldnât recommend this place to anyone who values basic courtesy.

We had dinner at Arigato Sushi, and every dish was fresh and delicious.
Both the rolls and grilled chicken skewers were great, and the service was friendly.
However, the chairs were quite dusty, so the cleanliness could be improved.
Still, itâs a nice place to enjoy good sushi in Santa Barbara.

Delicious! Best service in SB by far! Reservations recommended.
My review is for the customer service. I donât usually write reviews but our experience here was terrible. One of our sushi orders was taking over 45 min long to arrive. It was the last order for the night for my son. Our server said she checked on it and it was coming but it did not. After another follow up and seeing that the order went to the another table, they said they would ârushâ it. The table next to us get the our sushi orders when I think it should have come to us since ours was taking forever. At this point it was at least 40 min long. They said they would put another rush out for it and at that point, we were over it. The kicker is at the time of paying, there was no price adjustment or offer to give us a dessert or another item from the menu. So no tip was left. I donât like to do that but at this point I donât feel like I had a choice.
Fix your customer service when things go wrong. The sushi was good but we will not be back because of the service.

We ate there Friday night and I have been sick ever since. I am absolutely horrified by this unsanitary and unpleasant experience. I ordered sashimi plate, plus two unis, and a kama. It's Sunday and I have not recovered fully from food poisoning! I will never go back to this place.
