The menu was terrible ! the staff were on their phones. They don’t have any menus. They will give you a menu that is 2 years old and they said they can’t guarantee they will have the items on the menus . If you want sushi you will have a problem if you go there. They don’t have undon noodles they will give it to you as a soup And the bibimbap they used to have they don’t. My family has been going there for years. I had to go from a 5 star and drop it to a one star

I have never written a review before, but this is unacceptable. I ordered two orders of the salmon sushi, totaling to a little over $15. The order arrives and I got only four pieces of sushi.... I called to ask if this was right, and before I could even finish my sentence the waitress rudely interrupted me saying that it's four pieces. She went on to say that the salmon is really expensive these days. I said thank you and hung up the phone. The fact that she already knew what I was going to ask before I finished my sentence tells me that other people have called the restaurant asking to double check the number of pieces because the prices are astronomical. I will never order from here again and I am still hungry. Sincerely, a broke college student

Love getting sushi delivered from Gari. Favorites include the Idaho maki (sweet potato tempura) and shiitake maki (shiitake mushroom tempura). Seaweed salad and miso soup are also very good and both vegetarian. Delivery is always fast and fresh through DoorDash. Prices are very reasonable.

Amazing Japanese fusion cuisine and the nicest staff. Before the pandemic we would bring our young children for lunch frequently and everyone was so accommodating. Now, we do frequent takeout which is always delicious and ready on time. Can't wait to get back to our lunches at the restaurant someday soon!

What a great place for a first date as well as a place to take your family! There is a parking lot in the back of the restaurant which is large! The staff is friendly! The sushi is great! The noodles are tasty! Appetizers are wonderful! Staff very attentive! Prices are great! Before COVID we went there frequently! Hope people check this place out!

SHOCKINGLY BAD. AVOID. Extremely rude manager working on Friday nights. Received wrong order and waited 25 minutes without any updates or apologies. When I finally received the order, I was informed they would not be able to accommodate my request next time for no sesame seeds or soy sauce (I have a life threatening allergy), and they acted if it was my fault for having allergies. If there are any customers out there with allergies or special requests, please do your self a favor and find some other location that will respect you much better. There are way better options in the area as well.

Pretty plain sushi place, nothing to be excited about. They run $5.50 per any sushi roll (from a special page of the menu though) deal every Sunday, must be paid-in-cash. The deal is good but the quality... eh... Friendly service. We gave this place the 2nd try, but probably not going back, there are definitely better places around.

The sushi was incredible! I ordered the crazy maki, spicy shrimp with mango maki, salmon monster jr. maki, and unagi avocado. Each were incredible, and the spicy sushi had the perfect amount of spice so that your mouth didn't burn. The sushi was wonderful, highly recommend this place!
