Our party of six went to Ariake Japanese Restaurant in Reston for dinner on Monday night. Although the restaurant isn’t very large and was quite busy, we were seated within 10 minutes. Our waitress, Cindy, was friendly and attentive.
We ordered the sushi regular, à la carte items (nigiri and rolls), stir-fried udon noodles, and katsu curry. The sushi was fresh and delicious, especially the toro salmon sushi, which was tender and flavorful. We also enjoyed the udon noodles and the katsu curry.

I thought we ordered too much but we ended up finishing everything. Highly recommend this place!

I was born in Japan in October many moons ago! This year we went to Washington DC for my 3 day birthday trip, and I was hoping to eat at a Japanese restaurant, but not one in a shopping center or storefront. On the way to Dulles Airport we stopped in at the most quaint and authentic japanese looking atmosphere restaurant! It was so amazing!!! I was happy to get my favorite Sapporo Beer and the best hot sake I ever tasted! As I looked around the restaurant I noticed so many japanese customers! The food was so delicious and reasonably priced! I highly recommend this restaurant! The service was spectacular and so curtious! This was a real BIRTHDAY treat!

Excellent Japanese restaurant which located a very quiet, beautiful place. I visited the restaurants in both Fairfax and Reston, I prefer the latter. I ordered three different types of sushi’s: Toro power sushi, salmon skin sushi, and shrimp tempura sushi (all them are come with 8pcs), Tonkotsu Ramen, as well as Una Don. The Ramen is awesome: soup, egg, pork chashu, everything is perfect. The sushi also got unique flavor, my favorite one is the tempura sushi. Una Don it’s not the best one I’ve been tasted. The environment of Fairfax one is noisier than Reston, the staff are friendly and react quickly. The one in Fairfax has limited parking lot, so be sure to come early. Will come back in the future!

Always get the French kiss roll. It is not on the list, but if you know you know, and you can write it on top of the little ordering sheet that they give you they also have a good eggplant appetizer as well as very lightly fried tempura. The toro had a good rice to fish ratio as well.

I mainly come here just for the specialty rolls since in my opinion that is what they specialize in but they have something for everyone.

Nice stuff relatively quick service, but you do want to make a reservation because it gets very full very quickly even on weekday nights

First time in the Reston area and wanted to find out if Reston had Japanese/sushi game.

Happy to report that Ariake passed my test with flying colors!!

Ariake has a pretty extensive menu besides sushi. They offer Japanese favorites like tempura, teriyaki, katsu, and even donburi.

Wifey ordered the fried oyster appetizer and Assorted Sashimi (15 pcs of sashimi) and I ordered the chicken katsu curry. We also added a few nigiri pieces: hamachi belly, unagi, and hotate (scallop).

All of the nigiri and sashimi pieces were very fresh as the pictures can attest. It helped that this restaurant is quite busy, even on a Wednesday night, providing a quick turnover of sushi orders. It appeared that every table ordered some kind of sushi rolls and nigiri.

Chicken Katsu curry was also quite delicious and definitely satisfied my curry cravings. Chicken was properly breaded with panko and fried to perfection. Curry sauce was made in-house and had a nice tangy, unique but familiar Japanese curry flavor.

Wait staff was courteous and efficient, but don’t expect them to engage in long conversations. Luckily, we were able to have small talk with one of their servers and she even recommended her favorite Thai restaurants in town!

Only drawback for some people is that this restaurant can be quite loud owing to its popularity and lower ceilings.

If I ever decide to move to this area, I can be assured that my Japanese food and sushi cravings will be met here.

Genuinely my favorite restaurant, and it has been for years!! The quality and flavor of their rolls is unmatched; I love every item I’ve tried. I have my regular options that I adore, which are the Super Dynamite and the Florida Rolls. I also ALWAYS get fresh water eel unagi, it’s phenomenal! The bento boxes, soba, Katsu, ramens, etc. are also really really enjoyable. Both locations are 10/10s and have similar options.

I really enjoyed their fresh and high quality sushi. Although it was a bit expensive, 10$ for one piece of toro, the piece itself was exceptionally delicious and the fish would just melt in your mouth. I do feel like however that I would have preferred a bit more rice for the sushi itself. The fish was quite a generous piece but the rice was so small. I also quite enjoyed the soba but I was really confused as to why they chose to separate the noodles in two parts for the presentation. The service was decent. I was first greeted by an enthusiastic and welcoming waitress but then I was served by a waiter that seemed lethargic for the rest of the night which was not as enjoyable. Even though they were polite and fast, they were quite unenthusiastic. I also enjoyed the wooden interior design. It was simple yet sophisticated and made you feel pretty cosy in my opinion.

Hidden find in Reston that will make you feel full and satisfied with the overall quality and quantity of the meal when you leave. We got their chirashi bowl that costs $33 but it’s worth it as there are a variety of sashimi and a lot of it. The salmon and tuna rolls were also very good. The shrimp and vegetable tempura was decent; I wished the batter was lighter and crispier. Overall I had a very good and filling meal.
Their bento boxes are a good deal.

I had an outstanding experience at Ariake Japanese sushi restaurant! The sushi was incredibly fresh and delicious, and the service was impeccable. The staff’s attention to detail and warm hospitality made the meal even more enjoyable. Only thing I didn’t like is that the staff kept keeping aside and looking at us while eating which made me uncomfortable. The food was great and we literally liked all the sushi and ramen we tried. Even the tempura was flavourful. My favourite was avocado sushi. Highly recommend for top-notch sushi and excellent service!

Food was absolutely outstanding. Top notch. Wait staff was attentive without being intrusive. The restaurant is small, so it’s likely advisable to plan visits carefully. This really is a don’t miss dining experience.
