So this was my first time doing Omakase. Wow what an experience. I will start off to say that the service was fantastic. They really take care of you . We ordered some sake and waited for the 6 course chef’s choice meal to start coming out. As you can see from the pictures the presentation was fantastic. All the fish had such good flavor and buttery goodness. Such amazing flavors. I for the life of me cannot remember anything that we got in particular but all I know is that it was delicious. I know I did try some stuff that I normally wouldn’t have but all tasted fantastic. Service was just top notch , they saw our sake cup was empty they would come over and refill for us. WOW! It’s a tiny place and started to fill up after they opened at 11:30am. We had reservations for 11:30am at the bar

This has easily slid into my top sushi places of all time. Highly recommend the Blue Fin Burrata, the Simon Roll, & finishing it with the Shio Koji ice cream 👌 i mean everything we had was delicious, including the wagyu sushi. But everything listed before was highly recommended by our waiter, Daniel and everything blew us away. Impeccable service & the atmosphere was perfect. Drove by this place so many times & finally convinced my partner to try it and I almost wish it stayed a mystery so I never crave it like I do now. Give me any excuse to come back: a birthday, a bad day, a Monday... any reason and I'll be back and reorder it all

A friend saw this place on a IG reel, and we decided to ditch our favorite sushi place that we have been going to for over 15 years to try Akami Sushi. I was surprised at how many times ive driven by this place and never noticed it. Parking is very limited but its in a safe neighborhood so street parking is no big deal. We order the Yellow tail carpaccio 10/10, blossom roll 9/10, albacore onion roll 10/10, arcadia roll 8/10, Mentaiko Mazemen to share 10/10 this one i definitely recommend sharing because its so flavorful and rich it might get overwhelming to eat it all by yourself. And for dessert we got the Shio Koji ice cream also 10/10. I will say that I felt it was a bit pricey, but I also understand the current situation of the country. This place will definitely be a "let's get a trea

Top tier sushi experience. They have limited seating in a confined interior, so there will be a long wait during weekends. I waited 45 minutes on Saturday night but it was worth the wait. The sushi premium set was filled with lots of high quality options and perfect for variety and quite filling. Staff are all very friendly and the interior is beautiful and clean.

We had a nice dinner at Akami Sushi. The ambiance was peaceful and clean, with beautifully presented dishes and fresh ingredients throughout the meal. The special rolls were delicious and creative, and the tempura was light and crispy — not greasy at all. That said, a few things held it back from being a full 5-star experience: 🍣 We ordered the Premium Sashimi Set, but the cuts didn’t really feel premium — they looked and tasted more like a regular sashimi plate in both size and quality. 🟠 The uni was fresh, but $21 for just 2 pieces felt pretty steep, even for good quality. Overall, still a solid experience with fresh seafood and friendly service, but the pricing felt a bit high for what we received. Worth visiting if you’re looking for a quiet sushi dinner, just be mindful of the valu
