    We came to celebrate my birthday. First time trying this hibachi restaurant. The show was entertaining and the chef was funny. The service provided was good. The waiter was attentive and polite. The food was delicious and the portions were big. We couldn’t finish our sets and had to take them away. I was suggested to join their loyalty program and was able to redeem my birthday discount today. It’s an amazing experience dining here. Will definitely come again to try other things on the menu.

He was amazing and so nice and polite :) Make sure you stay for the ice cream ! Totally worth it :)

    I came here this evening with my mom and our waiter Leo or Leonardo M was such a doll. He was warm yet vibrant and added such a good vibe towards his section. He handed out food with care, nor was he a stickler and rushing us out after we had stayed past 5. I really recommend the restaurant because the food is so good but most of all ask for Leo and give him a fat big tip

    Why did we wait so long to return to this gem? Downstairs decor is nicer than upstairs but it’s all about the hibachi show. We loved it and we loved the food too. Ample servings and delicious, even as leftovers! We didn’t have cocktails but they looked awesome. If you are looking for a cool spot to have a fun time, go here. Take the valet parking. Totally worth it.

    I came here two days ago for my Jersey Mike’s holiday party, and everything was amazing. The food was excellent, and the customer service was outstanding. I highly recommend this restaurant for a date night, family night, business event, or even just to grab food and drinks—you won’t be disappointed. Everyone working there was so pleasant and brought great energy. The chefs were incredible and had our entire group laughing. We will definitely be back!

    Tasty hibachi, quiet chef Our family had a hibachi dinner at Arirang on Staten Island in August 2025 for a birthday celebration. The food was delicious and well-cooked, with a couple of exceptions. The chicken added as an option to the fried rice was clearly precooked, pulled from some container, and tasted pretty bad. The rice and veggies were somewhat over salted by the excess of soy sauce. Our chef wasn’t very entertaining. He did a couple of standard tricks and focused mainly on cooking, which he very well. However, I’ve seen much better performances at Arirang in the past, and we saw chefs at other tables delivering far more fun. Because of this, I’m giving the place 4 stars. The interior is pleasant, with a warm ambiance that suits both casual dinners and celebrations. Overall, Arirang on Staten Island is certainly a good hibachi restaurant worth visiting.
