Arata Sushi - Syosset

Don't read any reviews before dining here... That's what I did and this place has become my home for fresh sushi, service, and satisfaction. Be brave and try the Arata-style box! I've frequent here a few times within the past few months and it only gets better every time. Thank you Jimmy and Vincent for nothing but the best

Fantastic quality that never changes even on separate visits. Great place to have sushi if you’re new to eating raw fish, because they use flavorful sauces that compliment the fish but makes it really easy to enjoy if you’re not a fan of plain sashimi. Highly, highly recommended new to sushi or not.

I don't know how this place has such good reviews. I had sushi for 1. It was average, nothing to be thrilled about. My friend's rolls were also good but nothing extraordinary. Maybe the special rolls are good? I have no idea.

Sushi here is pretty unique. Maybe a secret sauce? Anyhow, the rolls were very filling and the appetizers were diverse.

I eyeballed this sushi place with almost 5 star review and stopped by for lunch with some cold dishes and the 10 pieces Arata style sushi. I actually like the appetizer although it's overprice. For the main course, I have to say the seasoning ruined the sushi itself. I can barely taste the rice and the fish with the sauce on top. Some pieces are overly salty. Overall, I expect at least more balanced sushi with the given prices, which is roughly $70 per person. Moreover, it's inconvenient that the store doesn't have menu.
