Recently renovated with new staff and chef, Arata has a new Yelp listing- unclear if menu still the same, but AYCE and a la carte are offered, with some bowls and bento boxes available for lunch. Note that the sushi combos are a poor value (8 pieces plus a California roll is $18?!), so dine in and stick with AYCE. Service was very friendly and attentive.
The appetizer selection is most interesting, and includes oysters, various pokes, sashimi salad, screaming o salad, lemon tako sashimi, jalapeno yellowtail sashimi, and seared tuna sashimi (most limited to one/person, dinner only). Nigiri selection was solid, with long, generous slices of fish and small portions of rice.
We only tried two rolls- the namesake Arata roll, which was odd and used mango (but it was underripe and had no flavor), and their one riceless roll (Rock N Roll). I feel like the apps and their nigiri are their strengths, preferred them over the rolls- but they did have a few interesting specialty rolls named after Strip casinos, which was fun to see.
