Obsessed with this place :') The owners and wait staff are always SO nice, the food is amazing (great deal on all you can eat sushi too) and the dining space is cozy and intimate. One of my favorite spots! They also recently gave us an extra roll when we ordered delivery, so sweet! read more

Arigato - Japanese Near Me - North Haledon, New Jersey

Went with a group of 7 for all-you-can-eat sushi and had one of the worst dining experiences I've had in a long time. We waited about 35 minutes to be seated and were sat around 8:00 PM. We ordered immediately, but by 9:00 PM we had only received one miso soup, a small portion of teriyaki, and a few drinks (which themselves took 20-30 minutes to arrive). No sushi or other food ever came out, despite the restaurant only having around 10 tables. After waiting over an hour with essentially no food, we decided to leave. We still left $50 to cover what little we received. As we were leaving, staff came outside yelling at us, which was completely unprofessional and unnecessary. I understand restaurants can get busy, but the lack of service, communication, and the way we were treated at the end was unacceptable. Unfortunately, I won't be returning. read more

Great place. Nice service, has it's own parking and has delicious sushi rolls. I love that the spicy rolls here are fish chunks with added spice instead of a mixture of fish and crunchy powder. read more

This is a small establishment in North Haledon, NJ. We were not very hungry but we didn't want to cook last holiday weekend (President Day). We just had Thai and Italian a few days ago, so we were in the mood for some Japanese. Instead of going to our usual restaurants in Bergen county, we decided to be a bit adventurous. We googled and found Arigato which is ranked quite high like 4.6 (on Google). We figured it is all-you- can-eat, you have a variety of items to choose from. There was only one couple when we arrived around 5:15pm. $32/person is typical for all-you-can-eat in Bergen County. Typically we would order 5-10 pieces of sashimi to share among us. We were surprised to find out sashimi was not included. Not a nice surprise but it is ok because we don't eat much of it anyway. We ordered a small salmon salad to share (tasted fine), then some sushi rolls. The fishes on the sushi did not look or taste fresh. The only one that didn't taste "fishy" is the salmon avocado. Every sushi except salmon avocado came with big chunk of rice underneath it. We were full quickly. I was not happy at all but we didn't want to take it out on the waitress who was really nice. I would rate the service to be 5 star (we were one of only two tables the whole 45 minutes) and food to be 1 star. I am really puzzled how they could earn 4.6 star rating with over 300 reviews. read more

It's good if you like to eat All you can the food n services id Okay not the best had better

This was my first visit to Arigato. It was a Saturday at 5pm. I ordered the Chicken Teriyaki Donburi but was refused since it appears to be a take-out only item for some reason so I ordered the Chicken Teriyaki dish. I enjoyed my meal while listening to background pop tunes and watching traffic pass by. The miso soup was great as was my meal. I got my money's worth including white rice which I added to the teriyaki. read more

One of our favorite spots for AYCE Sushi! BYOB. Decent price. Fresh food. The servers are attentive and friendly. The restaurant/bathrooms are super clean! The appetizer choices include a little something for everyone. They have a lot of special rolls on the all you can eat menu. It's definitely easy to order too much food, so start slow because you are charged regular price for any leftovers. It's never happened to us because we finish everything, but it's in bold letters on the menu! I would highly recommend making a reservation most nights - it's a tiny place that gets busy! read more

One of my faves. Local spot that is always fresh and delicious and the hostess Nikki is great. She always makes you feel welcome and appreciated! Miso soup is not overly salty and they have a nice selection of special rolls and veggie rolls. You MUST make a reservation here because it gets packed. The only issue I ever have is that they I really don't always have brown rice and I can't really have a white rice because of my dieting sometimes they had it sometimes they don't so it's hit or miss. read more

The sushi is great. However, the place is a little small and I don't feel comfortable sitting so close to other people. Other than that, it's pretty good. read more

Arigato - A must try. Their variety of sushi is really good. - Japanese Near Me - North Haledon, New Jersey

This place is the greatest sushi place in the country. I have only been coming here for a couple of months but I can't stay away. I come back here every single week. The staff is so nice especially nicki and she remembers you and is just so welcoming. The food is amazing. I recommend trying the spicy tuna balls. I could eat like 100 of them. The sushi is top notch and fresh and the food comes out very fast and efficient. The place is byob and has a great view. Unfortunately because of Covid there is less seating but they are taking great precautions and doing every bring they can. If you are considering going here please give them a chance you will not regret it. The all you can eat is a great deal and there are so many great rolls to try. You will not be disappointed. read more

Arigato - a plate of sushi and rolls - Japanese Near Me - North Haledon, New Jersey

Tried this sushi joint for the first time during COVID and the customer service provided as a small business is unmatched to other tiny sushi places in the area. I ordered 4 rolls and was very surprised to receive pieces of nigiri at no extra cost with my meal. Seriously, what sushi place literally gives away pieces of nigiri!? Also, the actual rolls themselves which tend to be fairly basic were super fresh and extremely tasty. The fish was not fishy whatsoever and each roll had just the right amount of rice to seaweed and was wrapped to be taken to go with care and precision. read more

The sushi and other menu items are tasty but the place itself is rather small. Feels a little cramped. However, the prices are fair and the service is always good so I have no complaints. Update: Great place to get takeout! You can have fresh sushi in the comfort of your home or even order a platter to take on a picnic read more

This has been my favorite go to sushi spot for a couple of years, have tried different ones but nothing compares. The host and servers are all really nice. Even during the pandemic, my family and I order from there for take out and the quality of the sushi remains. IT IS A MUST TRY. Will post more photos when I find them. :) read more

This is small place in a quiet town with great food. I don't think picking it up does it justice. I'm not fan of all the one time use plastic containers and having the food sit, allowed it to overcook and cool down but it was still good. I got a Dinner Box, i chose salmon and chicken(they ran out of shrimp), it came with A California roll and some other little fried things (that I'm not sure what you call them) and salad. The chicken was pretty good. The salmon and the sushi were both delicious! The salad and chicken were both good as well. My wife got a chicken teriyaki Bento box, similar to the dinner box with one meat and no extra fried goodies. We also got a tuna avocado roll that was exceptional. We'll defiantly go back to this place. The sushi and salmon were both top notch. I'd avoid picking up from places like this because of all the one time plastic use, and I'm sure we would've enjoyed the food more if we ate it there. read more

Arigato - Chicken teriyaki Bento box, tuna avocado roll, and a dinner box with salmon and chicken. - Japanese Near Me - North Haledon, New Jersey

Not the greatest AYCE. I usually only go to one spot and it was closed that day so we ended up here. Their selections of appetizers is small, and seaweed salad was extra charge Overall the sushi was good, but when we found a hair in our miso soup we ordered at the end of the meal, they did nothing for us. I said they should at least not charge my friend who found the hair in the soup- nothing. I am not ok with establishments that do not seek to right a wrong, especially one as simple as this. Instead they said to me "this never happens" Oh but later the waitress said they did give me a free mochi. But for bill the size of ours, that was insulting. read more

Went here for lunch with my daughter last week for the first time here and were pleasantly surprised at how much we enjoyed the food. The server was extremely busy but still managed to provide us with exceptional service. I wish I had pictures to post to show all that we ordered (since it was a lot lol) but I was hangry and stuffed my face right away. I definitely recommend giving this place a try. read more

Arigato was a convenient restaurant for mediocre sushi. And below average hot food. They have forgotten items from my take out order in the past and tonight they left off the most expensive special roll. When we called, the hostess argued that they hadn't forgotten it and asked us to take a picture of the order. Never ordering here again. Rude and ridiculous treatment of customers. P.s. stop putting sushi I didn't order or doubling certain items. You think it's nice but it just ends up being wasted. GG. read more

You just can't beat $25 all-you-can-eat sushi. Very good quality standard and specialty rolls. Try the Bronx Bomber!

Overall, Great AYCE sushi spot. I've tried a few others in the area but always come back to this one. Pros: Delicious sushi (especially the specialty rolls), good appetizers, decent service, amazing price. Can't beat it for $20. Cons: LIMITED SEATING. There are about 8 tables in total and this place is quite popular. Plan to make a reservation before coming here or risk being turned away. Parking is alright. It's part of a small strip mall. But usually it's not too much of a hassle to find a spot. Also wish their restaurant hours were better. However, definitely check this place out if you're looking for great sushi at a great price. Still one of my favorite spots in the area. read more

Excellent sushi and sashimi, friendly service and great prices. Been there many times and ordered takeout never been disappointed!

Love this place! Favorite roll is the NY Giant, for sure!! This place always throws in free rolls when we order big quantities, which I greatly appreciate. It's always a nice surprise for someone to get an extra bite of something they like. read more

Where's the fish? Arigato offers an all you can eat that is by order, not a buffet. I have been here several times and each time the quality goes downhill. My daughter and I were there recently and we each had soup appetizer (I had salad) and two rolls that we shared. The rolls were mostly rice. When we ordered a third roll to split between us, it was all rice with a teeny tiny piece of fish. I wish I had taken a picture of all the rolls and not just the 3rd one. Judge for yourself. Where's the fish? read more

Arigato - Where's the fish - Japanese Near Me - North Haledon, New Jersey

*Pre-COVID Review* All you can eat? Don't mind if I do. All you can eat places are somewhat tricky. There are places where it's great all you can eat, but at a higher cost. Then cheap all you can eat, where the food is not so great. Arigato is the best of both worlds. The options for all you can eat are endless and tasty! (Not to mention the appetizers). I love all you can eat with solid appetizers choices. How you order: When seated, you fill out a paper with your desired appetizers and the amount next to each. The server then comes to pick it up while you look over what sushi you would like to order. Be sure not to over order. A tip, start smaller then order more if you'd like. Dinner AYCE = $23 per person Lunch AYCE = $20 per person The service is very friendly and helpful if you are stuck on what to order. I especially favor the menu. They have pictures all of the special rolls (what a life saver). I hate ordering sushi that I'm not familiar with then end up hating it because it wasn't what I thought it would be.. such a waste of money.. better yet, ROOM IN MY STOMACH. Excuse me, I was ranting.. The only thing, since the restaurant is smaller it tends to fill up rather quickly. You'll end up having to wait some time. Try to come early maybe 5ish or 6 so they can seat you right away. Also, not much parking available. Another important tip, it's BYOB. read more

I've been to 10-11 different all you can eat sushi... this is hands down the BEST 1 of all there's no 2nd place in my eyes! I drive almost an hour away just to come here because it's worth it! My top favorites rolls: Samurai Bronx bomber White House Volcano Godzilla Kamikaze red dragon read more

Awesome sushi. All you can eat! The staff is soooo nice. Hole in the wall restaurant with great food.

Love this place! Great service and food is always great. Will continue to come back for sire

I tried this place for the first time after looking at Yelp reviews. During COVID they only have takeout (no outdoor seating), but I can't wait to be able to actually sit in because the place had the cutest atmosphere. The lady who took our order was very kind. The food was brought out to the car. The sushi was fresh. I ordered the dragon roll, spicy tuna roll, the grand slam, and vegetable gyoza (so delicious). My bill came to about $34 + tip which is a great price for everything we got. This is most likely going to be my new go to spot for sushi in the area. read more

For $20/person, this is about as good as ayce sushi gets. This is the cheapest ayce sushi option I've found in this area, but it's about the same quality as the more expensive alternatives. I came with 3 friends on a Saturday at around 7:30. I'm glad we reserved because it was a full house. We started off with kitchen entrées - peppered tuna salad, beef negamaki, spicy tuna balls, deep fried tuna, and white fish teriyaki. Although some people stray away from kitchen appetizers in order to fill up on sushi, the cooked options here are actually pretty good, and they didn't make me feel like I was wasting valuable real estate in my stomach. We also ordered just about every special roll on the menu over the course of four rounds, along with salmon nigiri. The most noteworthy include tebow time, what the ???, and the Viagra roll. To be honest, most of the special rolls taste the same since they involve the same few ingredients that are reassembled, then doused in the same spicy mayo sauce, but they still taste good. Sashimi is not offered here as part of the ayce deal, so we stuck to ordering nigiri instead. The cuts of fish on the nigiri are pretty thin compared to the amount of rice, but that's to be expected for the price. Service here is actually amazing compared to most ayce places - we were constantly attended to, given the correct orders, and offered new order sheets consistently. They also give fresh fruit at the end of the meal. A few things to note: the space is pretty small so be sure to reserve, especially on weekends. Additionally, they stop giving out the kitchen menu after the first round, so order all the cooked foods first. Parking is pretty easy - there's a small shared lot in front of the restaurant. I have no idea why the location in Edgewater costs $5/person more, but $20/person at this restaurant seems perfectly reasonable to me. Arigato will likely be my new go-to spot for ayce sushi! read more

I must say that the food is amazing here, but we wouldn't eat here half as much if it weren't for the incredible service that we receive from Akim and Nicky!! If you watch them, they know almost everybody on a first name basis and know exactly what everyone has as personal preferences! They are wonderful, warm people and I look forward to seeing them each trip. read more

This is an all you can eat sushi restaurant. It's somewhat small so it's best to book a reservation to lock in a seat. Pricing is reasonable. The menu offers variety of Japanese food including tempura. The sushi roll names are incredibly creative - they have rolls named "NY Giants", "Tebow", "Viagra" etc. I can't remember the last time I laughed looking at a menu. There's no need to be embarrassed when ordering "Viagra" because they'll give you a piece of pre-filled menu paper to write down how many rolls etc. you would like to order. The rolls are beautiful and delicious. The sushi (specific orders of fish like Tuna and Salmon) is questionable because their colors are freakishly artificial. I personally do not like sweets that much and their sauces are very sweet. But if you like sweets, there's plenty here. The service is excellent and the restaurant is very clean. read more

Great place tho is small call ahead is necessary Great sushi ... every single time I go there is great read more

Ok, here it goes. The restaurant is super clean. The food tastes very good, you can tell the fish is fresh and they don't jib you on the fish. The service is also very good. So, why only three stars? We came here for AYCE sushi and discovered hand rolls and sashimi are not included with AYCE, those are extra. When you consider the price point here is also few bucks more expensive than most other places that include those items, one is probably better off going elsewhere for AYCE. Plus, there are others who also have good tasting sushi with good service. read more

We were charged 30pp for AYCE lunch. The sushi menu to choose from is quite extensive, however sashimi is not an option, and some selections require extra charge. Majority of the special rolls include "spicy" fish. Unfortunately, everything that we ordered was rather unmemorable and bland. Dessert not included in AYCE. Probably won't return. read more

It's and small area but it nice that way. Pls pls Pls make reservation no matter the day of the week! I love how the fish for the sushi taste fresh. It was also delish. And the rice was seasoned well, I feel A lot of places don't do that, they make rice like second thought. And the rice and fish ratio was decent. As long as it's not the sushi. The special Rolls was terrific.. pls get the tempura, it was sooooo good. U won't regret trying this place out. read more

Best ayce around. Sushi is always fresh and delicious. If you're ordering appetizers, beware the portions since they're larger than most ayce places. They also don't have desert but they do have scrumptious fresh fruit! Be sure to make a reservation, they're a smaller place so you want to make sure you'll be seated! read more

Best all you can eat spot around. Tried a few other places and none compare. Love this spot

I honestly didn't even know this sushi restaurant was AYCE (all you can eat), and judging by the incredible quality of the fish, I bet most people (who haven't read the reviews) wouldn't either. It's a small restaurant, so no matter the day or time, it would highly benefit you to make a reservation (I went at 8:30pm on a Wednesday and it was packed wall to wall). I ordered "What The ???", "Kamikaze", and also tuna and salmon sushi. All of it was absolutely delicious and for $20, you can't beat it. Definitely bookmark this company and make your way over. read more

This review is based on two visits. Typical AYCE Japanese sushi fare. Rolls are decent, have lots of rice. Appetizers are also pretty good. Spicy salmon and spicy yellowtail rolls are not served chopped up, but as whole pieces of fish. It's not bad, but its not standard. The tuna salad appy is very good and makes the price of the AYCE a bargain. What would otherwise be a five star experience is ruined by the restaurants small size, strange hours, rolls with too much rice, weird parking, and terrible location. Also beware the typical "food wastage" provision...eat everything if possible. Also, the atmosphere can get a bit loud, so try to show up on the early side, between 5-6:30. Make sure to make reservations if you show up on a weekend later. read more
