Atari-ya Japanese Restaurant 1

Best sushi restaurant in Santa Maria. Small, local gem that offers amazingly fresh sushi. The black pepper tuna sashimi is my favorite, but you won't go wrong with anything you order.

Unlike some sushi restaurants - this is truly Japanese-owned, and you can taste that. Authentic, seasoned rice & fresh, succulent fish and seafood.

The restaurant is small, so it might not be the best for a giant group, but for a family dinner or definitely date-night, and you want Asian - this is where you need to be.

They do have a small karaoke area as well, sometimes they fire that up and that's always entertaining & fun.
