I’m on the road for my job and I was in the area. Sushi is usually a go-to of mine so this one popped up and as a photographer, the pictures looked enticing. I did order pretty early and before I could get to pick up my order the owner called to remind me that the order was ready. When I got there he reminded me again that I was late to pick up my order. But the food hit all the right spots and that is the most important seeing that it was take out LOL

I love how big their menu is. It can be hard to find restaurants with more than one kind of veggie sushi and they had lots of options. I got the avocado/ cucumber maki and triple A maki. Both were delicious. I also got spicy mayo.. it didn’t really taste like mayo to me. The sauce was really dark orange but I was fine with it. More sushi for less money than nori sushi. This was a good find on grubhub!

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!

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

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.

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.

Vlad Bychkov
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.
