It was pretty busy when we got here, but they were able to find us a table in the back. Service was great - friendly and attentive. Quality of the food was good, but the portions were really small. Overall we enjoyed our dinner.

I see a lot of reviews mentioning thst the price and quality was a bit if a mismatch and I would agree. The service was great. I do feels like it took a while to get the rolls. So much that we couldn't remember what we had ordered. The foo

I got food poisoning from this sushi place on Friday when I ate uni, salmon, tuna, and kama. I was sick 5 hours later in pain. It took me the full labor day weekend to recover. I will never go back.
Arigato has a well deserved reputation as the best sushi
Arigato has a well deserved reputation as the best sushi spot in SB. The fish is always fresh, the service is friendly, and the vibe is cool. Like every other sushi restaurant in town, you'll want to bring your wallet, but since you're goin
Best sushi I’ve had in ages!!
Excellent food, excellent service, excellent atmosphere. We all really enjoyed our visit last night. We got mainly sushi rolls and they were all extremely delicious. Would highly recommend.

I'm not sure if the vegan menu has changed in the past few years....but every roll we tried was just awful. My husband and I have tried vegan sushi at so many places in SoCal but this was the only time we have ever sent food back. The service wa

I have traveled extensively, and I am married to a Japanese lady who loves sushi as well and this was delish. Prices are a little steep, and it can sometimes be hard to get a table but overall this place delivers. You can sit outside or inside and th

Where is my 6th star? The freshest fish and most amazing sauces you will find in town. There is a gold oyster shot I simply cannot resist.

This food was awesome!!! We decided to come here because we saw the good vibes from across the street. The manager was awesome and very hospitable, he helped us get seated in a timely manner. Our favorite roll was the Wipeout Roll and the chicken gyo

Arigato Sushi was a welcoming place that left us feeling disappointed. While the flavors were good, the value was not matched in its pricing. My friend and I have been wanting sushi for a minute and decided to try somewhere new. Because of the rave
Not Good for Carry-Out
I want to start by saying we got carry-out. We didn't dine at the restaurant . That could be why we did not enjoy our experience. We ordered 4 rolls and 2 al a cart items. Upon opening the items at our hotel, we realized they did not put togethe
Best Japanese restaurant in Santa Barbara.
Spent a few nights over New Year’s in Santa Barbara. Had a wonderful dinner at Arigato Sushi which was a blast. Very lively atmosphere, with great staff, and delicious food. I lived in Tokyo for over 10 years and really enjoyed everything about Ari
Quality sushi with good energy overall
Went her on recommendations from friends who live in the area. Incredible selection of rolls and lots of great other dishes. We enjoyed it all and were thankfully for the quick (and friendly) service given our late start to the meal.
Excellent!!!
Excellent all around!! Great food and service. Loved the outdoor seating. Best fish in town. We will be back!! Thanks for a great evening.
Just ok
Sushi was ok, but not among the best I have had. The outdoor space is decent and gives you the ability to people watch a bit.
ARIGATO!
We were more than happy to be seated at the bar where the head chef takes your order. The sushi, nigiri and sashimi are so fresh and delicious. The soft crab tempura was excellent as were the California and Bonfire rolls. Watching the chefs prepare e
We will be back.
This is a must when visiting SB. The service is great and the food is crazy fresh. Great sake and wonderful atmosphere. The menu is packed with options for all palates. They are great about GF options and willing to convert rolls to GF when pos
Won’t be back
This was the first sushi restaurant I left still hungry but paid 3 digits. Food was great but they need to work on either prices or portions
Sushi lovers paradise
The sushi was fantastic! Fresh and well crafted. Uni, eel, hamachi sushi, snapper sushi. So good! Nice environment too!

AppointmentTrader is a community-driven platform where users can exchange their reservations or leverage their personal relationships with Arigato Sushi Santa Barbara. Buyers can make informed decisions using automated seller ratings, which reflect past transactions and reliability.
Each posting on AppointmentTrader shows you which user submitted it and along with that provides a trackrecord of that user which indicates how much experience
the user has and how many percent of their transactions resulted in them issuing a refund.
If there is no user posting that fits your schedule, you can bid on your preferred time.
Let's say Peter has a great morning and decides to take his three friends to Arigato Sushi Santa Barbara at 6 PM the same day.
He checks the restaurant's website and sees that no reservations are available. He then looks at the Arigato Sushi Santa Barbara page on AppointmentTrader, but finds that there are no user postings either.
That's where the community-driven bid process comes in.
Peter can place a bid on AppointmentTrader, which serves as a reward for any community member who chooses to work on securing the reservation. AT then notifies experienced users who may be able to help.
Step-by-Step Process
1.) Setting a Reward (Bid)
* AppointmentTrader uses historical data to recommend a reasonable reward amount for securing a reservation - let's say $100.
* Peter really wants to go, so he increases the bid (or reward) to $200.
* At this stage, the reservation does not exist yet.
2.) A Community User Picks Up the Bid
* MaternalRecord73, an experienced AT user, has a strong track record of successfully securing reservations and low refund requests, they receive a notification about Peter's bid.
* MaternalRecord73 picks up the bid, meaning they will now work on securing the reservation.
* Peter can now talk to MaternalRecord73 for any questions Peter may have as MaternalRecord73 user fills the bid.
3.) Finding the Reservation
* MaternalRecord73 now uses their connections at Arigato Sushi Santa Barbara to secure the table.
* If they successfully get the 6 PM table for four, Peter receives a confirmation that the reservation has been secured.
* If MaternalRecord73 fails to secure the reservation, the bid is returned to the pool so another user can try.
4.) Payment & Protection
* Once the reservation is secured, MaternalRecord73 receives the $200 reward which is credited to MaternalRecord73's AT balance, where users manage their own funds and can withdraw via available payout options such as bank transfer, PayPal, or Zelle.
* Peter can now enjoy the dinner with his friends at Arigato Sushi Santa Barbara!
* As with all transactions on AT, disputes and no-show fees are handled through the platform's community-driven resolution system. Users with a strong track record are incentivized to fulfill bids successfully, and community members can report issues to maintain trust in the marketplace.
