    Christmas Eve and they were under staffed. Food was delicious even though we had to wait for each dish separately. Staff was great and apologetic. I know everything is expensive these days but seems as if the prices here are high and the portion sizes are small.

    Ate here many times but this was the best it’s ever been. Probably due to a newer manager. Food quality was great. Quick, efficient service and the sweet manager took our picture and printed for us. A really nice touch!

    We make it a point of dining at the RA Val Vista location as often as we can when we are in the valley. The food is fantastic and always consistent. Friendly and attentive service is on point and I have never visited without at least one person from the management team stopping to say hello and check on how the evening is going. (Kelsie's service was great last night) With so many restaurants increasing prices and shrinking portion size, I find that there is still great value at RA.

    Made a reservation for 12:45pm. Upon arrival the manager came up the host & said out loud to not seat anybody for at least 10 minutes. Well 15 minutes of sitting around, they finally seated me outside. Then it was another 15 minutes before anybody came up & took my order. I placed my order finally with the sweet server. The manager did come out to me to explain that he was having staffing problems & a brand new bartender, (because the current bartender did not show up). I told him I understand that running a restaurant can be tough. Then nobody came around for another 10 minutes, so I moved from the outside to bar, where I could at least order a beer. They finally served me in the bar. I have been a pretty loyal customer at RA. However, this was not a pleasant experience & I believe I will take my business somewhere else in the future.

    This is a great all-around eatery with outstanding service. The sushi bar staff was friendly and engaging, making the experience even more enjoyable. The food was fantastic, but what truly made my day was seeing all the employees wearing breast cancer awareness shirts. As a survivor, it was heartwarming to see the community actively supporting awareness and showing their solidarity.

    Haven’t been here in few years actually before Covid, decided to make reservations and I strongly recommend you do this if your going to this restaurant got about six seated right away. Server came over we ordered our drinks. We tried the sake sangria so good. I followed that with a cucumber margarita, even better, had the Las Vegas roll, some of the dumplings and had the RA-Men soup it was delicious. did this with a side of fried rice threw the fried rice in the soup and it made it even better. If you haven’t gone here, you will love it.

    First, why do they serve the sushi dishes before the non sushi dishes. I had to watch mostvif the table eat, then they had to wait/watch me eat. Sushi was good but my chicken Katzu was undercooked and tough. The prices are fairly high for what you get, would at least expect them to be well prepared. Service was rushed and impersonal. Just a poor overall experience for a semi upscale place. Had a similar experience prior and wanted to give them a second chance. There will not be a third.
