    We continue recommending this place after trying different dishes in the menu. We would have to say it is a hidden gem at Arlington. In particular, the lunch special has good cost and quality ratio. Our only complaint was that the staff were sometimes too busy to handle the takeout/cleaning/greeting..... it happened a couple of times that one or two things on our order were left out and not packed in the takeout bag.....

    Thank you, Sono -- the boat was a big hit at our Super Bowl party! The rolls were made with obvious care; our guests enjoyed everything.

    This is actually the first time I came here. I'm staying over with my sis in Arlington for a while and they told me Sono is a good place to go for fresh fish and sushi. Now, I wouldn't say the service is the best, but the food definitely is!!!!! I ordered shrimp tempura maki, uni sushi and salmon sashimi! They are all great!!!! The uni sushi got me flying.... And the price is so cheap I can't even believe it!! The boss himself is so kind cuz the waitress ordered something wrong with me, and he didn't even blame her. I will definitely come back on Thursday cuz they say they are getting fat tuna lol!

    Not impressed. Mediocre sushi. Awful crab Rangoon. They must have been deep fried in old oil. They were not fresh and delicious. The restaurant itself is really cute. Maybe I just had a bad experience here but I have to say I'm disappointed because it's a cute little neighborhood place and now I don't want to go back.

    Excellent local sushi place. I enjoyed lunch with my brother and his son-in-law on a quiet Thursday. We all enjoyed a fatty tuna sashimi starter followed by the maki special- a lot of maki for the money. Lots of choices of maki- I had the spicy tuna, spicy salmon and California. The sushi and sashimi was generous in quantity and very good, but just short of great. I've had fatty tuna which seemed to dissolve like butter in my mouth and this was just a bit better than normal tuna. The spicy tuna and salmon weren't as spicy as I like, but this is nit-picking because this place is really good and I will be back. Service was friendly and effficient.

    We are HUGE fans of Sono! Absolutely love coming here. My husband and I have been regulars since the first month they opened. They were spotty in the beginning so we didn't frequent it as much, but the last year and the half, they have improved to near perfection. I'll comment on service first. Absolutely top notch. The waitresses are friendly, efficient, and prompt without being intrusive. You really can't get much better than those attributes when it comes to customer service. The owner, Tom, is always there. I think he works 7 days a week. And he is so hands-on. Whether he's helping the front of the house, the back of the house, the sushi bar, or occasional deliveries....you're in good hands with Tom, and the people who work for him. Now the good stuff: SUSHI. Always fresh! How do I know they're fresh? We live right across from Sono. Literally a minute slow walk. Our front window faces the restaurant so I always know when their seafood deliveries come in. It's not just the freshness, although that is the deal breaker for sushi, but their cut is very generous. And I don't mean the rice part either, I mean they truly load you up with the good stuff. And the hot Sake! You can't do sushi without Sake. We usually order 4 carafes, but on occasions, we'll do 5. We walk back responsibly to our front door, looking left to right, to left again before crossing Summer St :-) We are lucky to live in such close proximity to Sono because these guys are awesome! Plenty of street parking, however they do have their own parking lot behind the restaurant. The bar counter gets pretty busy during the weekends. I guess people enjoy watching the chefs do their thing. We prefer the corner table....

Wow 33 bucks for lobster 25 for side scallops Lobster roll was small in size, I do need to say it was fresh lobster meat and good taste with light mayo ... My real disappointment wax the 25 bucks for scallops that were soggy, not a good batter, Terrible Cole slaw, basic tarter from Ken's steakhouse pre packaged. My mistake risking 25 bucks on scallops at a place hadn't eaten before... I don't see returning. Appears a locals place to grab fresh fish to cook at home. Did have fresh lobster tanks for fresh lobsters . 25-27 bucks was fair for this lobster roll compared to my lobster roll last week at Belle Island.

    Cozy little Italian restaurant in Boston. We came to Boston early on our road trip with the sole…read morepurpose of eating dinner here and was very glad we got there early, as there was already a line forming by restaurant open. The combination of it being limited seating (it holds less than 20 people) and being a popular spot makes it quite hard to get in without a long wait, so I would recommend right when it opens. Food wise, we got the Squid Ink Pasta and Calamari. The calamari was the perfect combination of crispy on the outside, but soft on the inside, which I find a lot of restaurants don't do a great job of doing. The squid ink pasta was also delicious and on par with any quality Italian restaurants in NYC. I would come back again if I'm ever in the Boston area and want a nice Italian restaurant. Also this place is CASH ONLY so be prepared before coming.

The kitchen is right next to the dining area so you can watch the chef in action. All the dishes were flavorful but I'd say my top dish was the clam pasta.
