Ara Sushi & Grill

The stairwell to access the restaurant is a bit challenging for some. The food and service make it worth the effort.

Been here multiple times and will definitely be going back. Some of the best sushi in the tricities.

We've been here at least a couple dozen times, so I figured it was time to write a review. We have tried multiple sushi places around the Tri-Cities, but once we came here, we've never gone anywhere else. The fish tastes absolutely amazing, the plating/presentation is always beautiful, and the atmosphere is intimate and relaxed.

We weren’t in the place long enough to order, it was hot muggy & so noisy we couldn’t even have a conversation on what to order, kids were so loud it was just not a good atmosphere, the waitress just walked by and dropped the water glasses on the table, no, I’ll be right back, I’ll be your waitress, nothing.

Food was delicious and a good sized serving portion. The Holy Crab roll was particularly good. Enjoyed the pork katsu (as part of the Bento Box), but it could have been a little juicer.

Wow, great food!

I just wanted to say we had a great experience. We showed up at the last minute and we ordered a lot. The cooks made our food so fast and the service was amazing, We live in california but we often travel to washington, if you want good food and good service. This is a place to be, I took my friends where impressed.

Food was very good and very inexpensive for sushi. Fresh calamari & shrimp appetizer. Small place, but surprisingly not busy on a Saturday night.

Went to Ara because of the high Google rating….mistake, Terrible ambiance…second floor of a strip mall. Full of clutter and food court feel. Gyosa was dry, overcooked and flavorless. Nigiri was average and Yummy roll was almost inedible. Honestly, Walmart sushi level quality. Not sure why they are getting high ratings because the food was poor.would not return.

This has got to be the strangest location for a restaurant. The food is expensive and not very good.
