I'm here on a mini vacation trying places I've never eaten before. This place came highly recommended by the locals at other places I've eaten at on my trip, so I decided to give it a try!! Let me just say the people and food were amazing!! Very friendly folks! And the food was so flavorful! I got the Oceano Roll, Mississippi Roll, the miso soup, and the Mochi Ice cream! All amazing! Will definitely be back again!

Absolutely wonderful place, from the service to the drinks and to the quality of the food. All of my party had sushi and/or sushi rolls. We all ordered a hibachi dish: chicken, salmon, and shrimp-filet mignon. The wait staff, although busy, was attentive. We paid well over $100 for 3 people but we ordered a lot of food and drinks - it was worth it.

I spent a lot of years in Japan and moving to the Midwest made finding really good Japanese food tough. We vacationed in the area and stumbled upon this place but had to come back every day of our vacation because it was so good. Great sushi, great Tonkatsu Ramen, great experience. If we come back to the area we will certainly be back!

Dylan (sushi chef)is absolutely phenomenal. I sat at the sushi bar and he was delightful along with being extremely talented! Alice was the only waitress for lunch but you would never know it. She was on top of everything! I had the lunch Chirashi Bowl. Amazing! A LOT of fish! I am full and HAPPY!

A large selection of sushi. I have enjoyed sushi on the university campus by expert Japanese sushi chefs and this place offered what seemed to be a wider selection. I ordered some of the more common sushi and not the gourmet ones. The pickled radish doesn't sound appealing but prepare for a surprise! Bathrooms were clean, ambiance was fair, effort was put more into taste and price- so I understand and appreciate that. The waitress was very nice. Sushi is made fresh so it doesn't come out in 2 minutes. You'll have to wait a little but we were served at a reasonable time. I like this place and I believe it is a good place for a healthy meal.

My family and I go often. We adore this restaurant. The food is always fresh and has the perfect taste. The portion sizes are very decent. They do not skimp on the food. The staff are attentive and nice. Has a very good atmosphere. Priced lower than the other local sushi restaurants. Child friendly and has a kids menu.

We found this sushi place on Google Maps coming through Hot Springs. We decided to try it because of it's high ratings! We got 2 orders of the crab/cream cheese wontons with sweet and sour sauce. Those were delicious!!! Some of the best I have had. We got a Southern Philly and an AR Roll. It came with soy sauce, pickled ginger, and wasabi. The sushi was amazing. I haven't had sushi that compares like that from where I am from. They had cute (and delicious) mints to send with you when you picked up your order. Definitely recommend and we will be coming back the next time we're coming through Hot Springs. ☺

This is our third visit. We drive 1 1/2 hrs...and it is so worth it. Alice and the crew are amazing!!! Everything is exceptional

Great sushi, drinks, and fried wontons. Friendly service too. One thing to note, online says they are open till 9 o'clock on Sunday but we got there at 8:25pm and they told us they were closed. We had to come back the next night.

I’m vegan and although their vegetable tempura bento box didn’t carry entirely vegan items, I thoroughly enjoyed the flavors. I also had a cuvado roll and lychee juice, which were a wonderful addition and both tasted amazingly delicious! I avoided some of the items that contained animal products but I’m sure they have a wonderful selection for meat eaters as well. I’ve eaten here numerous times and have had great experiences every time. (Be sure to disclose that you’re looking for dairy-free/vegan options because apparently their tempeh batter uses fish stock).

My absolute favorite sushi place in Hot Springs. My best friend and I come here all the time! The service is always great and everyone is super friendly. Food is fresh and always displayed beautifully. Every thing I’ve tried has been delicious!!

We tried this today due to a recommendation of a family member. It did not disappoint! The jalapeño poppers were amazing! I also recommend the Blue Roll it was the first time I have ever had a sweet sushi roll. The waitresses were very polite and attentive. We will be going back next time we are in the area.

We went here for my Husbands birthday. Amazing place and amazing food. The staff was nice and we got our food so quick it!! Will come here again when we visit Hot Springs! And the sushi prices are amazing!

Everything was so so good & I got perfectly full! They have wonderful lunch combos and prices. They waitress was so sweet and enjoyable to talk to. Speedy service, high quality food. This is not a Hibachi where they cook in front of you just so you know if you were expecting that from the menu. It’s simply describing the way some of it is cooked

We had the pork dumplings & shrimp & vegetable tempura. It was all so delicious. Will definitely go back next time we are in Hot Spring!!

Had a great takeout experience. The menu is online, and we called it in. Unexpectedly great food given these parts of the world. Great prices to top it all of.

On a trip to Hot Springs, we picked up dinner at Ai Sushi & Grill. The quality of sushi was surprisingly good. I would totally stop here again and have sushi and drinks The staff at the restaurant were also lovely to chat with.

My boyfriend grew up in Hawaii. Most authentic food he has had since he left. It was delicious. Robin was a wonderful server. Two thumbs up.

My boyfriend and I love it here! Great lunch menu with affordable prices.
