Service was EXCELLENT. Went Sunday afternoon when it was not crowded. Omakase was delicious. Staff was lovely.

Sushi of Gari is the place you go when you want to have perfect sushi served with a bit of avant garde notes. They do it day in and day out, no one can or will imitate this wonderful combinations done by the staff of Gari. The Umeshu I must add is a must try ! Omakase is KING here. So no other will do.

There's so much mediocre sushi on every corner that it's refreshing to eat high quality, well crafted sushi in an unpretentious restaurant. The preparations are inventive, but DON'T cover up the fish. Highlights include: AMAZING fluke sushi topped with a small dot of salty plum paste, salmon with tomato, kumamoto oyster with jalapeno, and mackerel with a dollop of soy sesame seed sauce. If you're an American sushi traditionalist, the spicy tuna and spicy shrimp tempura are out of this world with just the right fish to rice ration (not TOO much fish PLEASEEEEEEE, it's not balanced!). Try to sit at the bar if you can, it's fun and you can order stuff on the fly directly from the sushi chefs. Two of us had in all 10 pieces of sushi and 4 rolls and it was 117 (not incl. tip). To me, that's a fair deal.

The food is awesome. Service was good and very attentive. De core was very nice. This isn't your traditional Japanese restaurant but it's very very good food. Try the omakase and you'll be happy. Just the right amount of food as we were full but not too full. Plan on spending some money but it's worth it. Highly recommend.

top 3 or 4 in terms of fish freshness/quality in the city. Several reviews criticize the overly inventive preparations. For me, this is a plus. The fish always manages to shine through and they still offer the straightforward selections which are perfectly executed. If you aren't looking for omakase, the "sushi special" is a good choice, offering many pieces one would receive on the chef's tasting menu.

To preface I really like fish. I like the taste f it, I like its' texture and everything else. So I prefer very traditional sushi. Gari is not traditional, they drown the fish ouot with weird presentations including dairy products. This may be wonderful for people who don't really like fish but enjoy the thought of sushi. myself? Not so much,I will stick to fish alone with no embellishments.

Their sushi is good, but it is obviously overpriced, it is a crowded place, tight and a bit uncomfortable, service was fine, not great, and I would hesitate to recommend it.
