arigato japanese steakhouseWinstonsalem

Make a reservation and enjoy some delicious Japanese steakhouse food! Wonderful food that absolutely melts in your mouth with a dutiful wait staff and amazing cooks, this is one of few meals I've had in the past couple of years that I have actively reminisced on. The reason for 4 stars instead of 5 is due to the cleanliness of the main dining area and the state of the building and restaurant itself. As a byproduct of quick cooking and a show, there is food that finds its way to the floor. So be mindful where you step. The ceilings, walls, and building itself are in a state of decay, badly needing restoration, a 21st century update, and a few coats of paint to-boot. Overall, a great experienc...

Without a doubt, THE ABSOLUTE BEST Japanese restaurant! Their white sauce is like no other! Ive been coming here since I was barely a teenager and every other place I try, disappoints and doesn’t even come close! Highly, highly recommend! The only downside is they no longer have the sponge cakes at the end of your meal.. havent for a while) but that’s due to the company who manufactured them, went out of business. Sadly.. because those were seriously the best things ever! Also, for those disappointed in “lack of a show” I’m personally there for the food.. not tricks!

Gary was an absolutely amazing server!! LOVED him and how kind he treated my sons and I. The food was delicious but the cook/chef didn 't seem to be in the best mood.

I recommend making reservations as they were extremely busy on a Wednesday but luckily, w/o reservations we were seated fairly quickly. (The ladies up front were sweet also) Although I 've been a server for many years I don 't agree with automatically adding gratuity to every check, especially for only 2 or 3 people. Larger groups I could understand. All in all a very nice dinner. I guess I was just hoping for a little mor...

I loved the food as much as I loved the experience. Downsides, the wait for enough people to fill a table even if you make reservations. Upsides, a lot. The food is amazing and delicious, the staff is friendly and personable, the chefs are engaging when they cook in front of you, and did I mention delicious? The meat was tender and cooked to my specifications perfectly. The veggies were the right amount of tender and crisp. You got plenty of sauces of your choice. It truly was a great experience and something I recommend to everyone at least once in their lifetime.

Food was really good. I had the salmon with ginger sauce; in a word, amazing! The chef was funny, and the overall service was pleasing. Nice atmosphere.
