"Ignore the status “Closed” for an earlier Arakis Japon Iteration in Lake Forest, the lady and I went to the location at the Food Court in Foothill Ranch in the Towne Center. Without getting into crazy crowds of those what was done to who and how it was done, I'll just say that the sushi is some of the best I found here in Southern California. The chief/owner is talented beyond the comparison. Its driving sensation is texture, unlike the football instruction of so many Asian chefs, “all flavors in balance.” At this point many western diners are familiar with the refrain, and hear how someone the dish is both sweet and savory is not nouveau or even very interesting. Instead, Araki dominates the tactile sensations of food. Whether it's a salmon dish or a carpaccio of the tenderest flounder, it's serious. The palate is constantly honed, seduced and filled. The fresh lobster shell was particularly remarkable. Arakis is a place for lovers out in one night, a family to join again, or for businessmen to print a deal. Arakis Japon appreciates the highest I can offer. And frankly, everything I can say will just be hyperbole. Go and dine and fall in love with sushi."
