    Chicken Yaki Lo Mein (Pan Fried Noodles) with Onions $12
    Bay S.

    I visited Akami Sushi & Grill two days in a row and I'm happy to say, they're my new go-to Japanese restaurant. The service is nice... everyone's friendly. I have to remember to take photos of the inside during my next visit. I ordered the chicken Yaki Lo Mein with onions and it was good. The next day, I ordered the Lovely Roll and chicken fried rice with onions. Everything was tasty, my only complaints are, I wish they hadn't put the sushi rolls in the same bag as the fried rice. The rolls were warm and by the time I got home the seaweed was really chewy so I had to remove it. It would be nice if they had a spicy fried rice option as well, like the Japanese restaurant I always went to before finding them. I highly recommend this establish and glad it's in Dawsonville.

    I was pleasantly surprised by this place. They had just opened this location a couple of weeks ago and hasn't had a lot of advertising BUT it should definitely be on the map! The service was excellent, the ambiance was fun and bright but the music was odd. Straight up rap music was a bit strange but it was definitely...entertaining? Now, on to the food. They have a wide range of sushi to choose from as well as an hibachi menu. The food was excellent. Freshly made sushi by a sushi chef and it didn't take forever. The prices are excellent as well. They have quite a bit to choose from and if you go at lunch they have smaller portions if you like. I will definitely be back and telling my friends about this place!

    The service was excellent, and our waiter was very attentive. I've been to several sushi places, but this one is my favorite so far in Dawsonville. Unlike many other restaurants that overload their rolls with rice, the sushi here is well-balanced and proportioned. Overall, it's a spot I'd definitely recommend.

    We had such a great experience!! The sushi was awesome, delicious and fresh. Will definitely be back for sushi when in Dawsonville

    Sweet potato and avocado rolls

    This place is a gem. We've stopped eating anyplace else in Dawsonville. The atmosphere is beautiful, and the staff go out of their way to take excellent care of you. Bento boxes are a great value, and we've tried the teppanyaki meals and sushi as well. Everything has been excellent. This place takes great pride in what they do. Refreshing to see, and amazing to experience.

    sunshine roll

    Great sushi! Lovely ambience. Very clean and pleasant atmosphere. Prices are very reasonable and tons of options on the menu.

    Dinner was excellent! We shared the shrimp dumpling appetizer and shared several different rolls. We tried the Spicy Girl, Four Seasons, Foxy Lady, Valentine, and American Dream rolls! They were so yummy and fresh. Service was great and quick! Highly recommend.

    We usually visit the same ramen shop every time we're in the Atlanta area but this time we wanted…read moreto explore more since we knew there were so many other options. We decided to try Slurpin' Ramen Bar first. I had read that they originally started in California so I had a good feeling about it and I'm so glad we went! Their tonkotsu broth was probably the best I've had in the US. It was rich and full of flavor without feeling overly heavy. It was so good that we didn't want to leave any behind so we actually took the leftover broth with us for the 5-hour drive home (thankfully we had a cooler bag!). I immediately had to tell my son who's currently living in LA for college so he can visit one there too. This place is definitely going on our must-visit restaurant list from now on.

First, when you walk into the restaurant, it is very cute, has a bar for solo diners and booths incase you are in a group. The location is very cozy and the employees were great! Our server was very patient and had no problem explaining, re-explaining, and confirming with the chef if he wasn't 100% on an answer. I got a tofu rice bowl, which I typically don't get and it was delicious! I asked if the salad could be put on the side rather than in the bowl and was given a full side salad that I wound up mixing into my rice lol. I also added broccoli to the bowl, which I probably wouldn't do again because it was pretty bland, but overall the bowl was good. Now the vegan dumplings... were FANTASTIC! We shared the dumplings and everyone agreed that they were easily the best thing that we had eaten the whole day. The green color threw me off at first, but the crispiness and texture of the dumpling was amazing. I would love to go back and try the ramen to see how it measures up, but again, great experience. Also, when you are paying the check, they bring you a small bucket full of dum dum lollipops, which I thought was a great touch. Me and my adult guests all left like happy children, which is exactly how eating out should make you feel.

    Solid Korean spot with homey, feel good options. I had the seafood kalguksu, which was comfort food…read morethat I needed after a long flight to ATL. The broth was deep in flavor, piping hot, and the noodles cooked perfectly with a good bite. The banchan - loved the variety and flavors - spicy, sweet, savory. My personal favorites were the broccoli, kimchi, and potatoes. Service was great, attentive without being overbearing. Beautiful interiors in this charming part of Alpharetta.

    We came here exactly the same time last year...but I remember we were bit disappointed in how…read moreridiculously spicy-hot the Galbijiim was! Still, I really liked the vibe of the restaurant, and all that they had to offer, so we decided to try again. Well, again, we ordered the Galbijjim...and this time, there wasn't a Regular or Spicy like last time. We also ordered a small size of Seafood Pancake. Well...Gotta be frank. This time, the Galbijjim was TOO mild. In fact, it even had this brown watery soup base (which I don't remember was a thing with Galbijjim??). WOW. Just can't seem to find the right balance here. Quite disappointing because we both were knocked over by just how AMAZING it was in the original Duluth location. Unfortunately, the Galbijjim at this location is just not the same. It's either too hot-spicy...or too mild (and soupy?!?). Also, the portion is WAY smaller...almost too small. If you look at the hot pot, it barely fills the bowl (?!?). Too mild...too soupy...and too skimpy. So again, we were quite disappointed. We agreed that if we're to have Galbijjim, we'll be going to the Duluth location over this one. Two Strikes, and OUT for me! Their side dishes were good...but again, I felt that the Duluth location offers a much more spirited variety of sides as well. Not sure why this is the case? I found this surprising as well...given how high the ratings were here?? Luckily, there was something we were impressed with...and that was their Seafood Pancake. It was MUCH crunchier than how I remembered it in the past...and both my husband and I agreed that this was THE best version we've had to date! We regretted not ordering the large size of this...as we enjoyed this more than the Galbijjim! It's so unfortunate that I'm still not able to upgrade the review to 5 stars...especially given how I love the vibe of this restaurant! Service is quite good too. But their Galbijjim continues to disappoint...so must dock another star. Maybe if I/we revisit, I'll order something else from their menu...and hopefully, it'll be better than their version of Galbijjim???

When I first had their ramen that's all I could think about when we visited Atl. After moving in the area and having this on a random Tuesday night idk what it was but I got their spicy kimchi ramen and my husband got their tonkotsu ramen and it lacked flavor. I asked for spicy Sichuan pepper sauce on side and all it was doing with a tiny bit in my ramen was making my tongue tingle the whole time. It kind of ruined my appetite. I had this better and not sure why that happened. I was charged extra without being informed of this and I gave her the whole sauce back after telling the server about this. I just like being informed of what I will be charged extra for, that's all. Anyways, overall did not appreciate this location at all.

The place is beautifully structured and I love the concept. The menu is quite intriguing, they have interesting menu items. We ordered Classic Japanese Omurice, Crispy Chicken Rice Burger with Purple Sweet Potato Fries, and Yinyang Bowl. My Crispy Chicken Rice Burger was quite hard to eat without it falling apart and eating it layer by layer. The Thai Iced Tea was pretty good and so was a Purple Sweet Potato Fries. The Omurice was also good but lacking great as well as the Yinyang bowl. Overall my expectations were not met but glad I got to check out this popular franchise.
