Arigato Japanese Steak & Seafood House 2995 Bethesda Place, Winston-Salem, NC 27103

"The ambiance in this restaurant is amazing. It's always crowded. The sing happy birthday to you. The food is good. It's always cool watching them prepare your food right in front of you. Chef was friendly as was the server. Be ready to spend some money though. All this greatness costs money."

"This was our first time eating here and the food was absolutely delicious. I would highly suggest making a reservation. They are very popular and very busy. We were seated within 10 minutes after our reservation. We were also celebrating our son's birthday and they celebrated by coming by with a drum as the table clapped. The waitress and chef were very attentive and friendly. I requested gluten free and the chef was very careful to keep my food separate from the other food. The chicken hibachi was delicious and served without soy sauce. I was able to enjoy everything but the soup which isn't gluten free. I called ahead and the manager was very knowledgeable about gluten and what items were gluten free. The rest of my party ate the normal menu items and absolutely loved it. This is a great place for a special occasion."

"The food was good (well, it was ok). The folks in my party that ordered steaks said they were prepared to perfection (very tender and seasoned well). On the other hand, my fried rice and Norwegian salmon were somewhat bland. In my opinion, there was nothing that caused our dining experience to stand out. I'll provide high marks for the cleanliness of the restaurant and our servers' performance and outstanding attitude but my food at best was average which was really surprising as this place was highly recommended by several friends and coworkers."

"Excellent food and wonderful atmosphere. We enjoyed our meal and the food was cooked to perfection. Good value for money."
