    Baked Lobster Roll
    Joanna G.

    First time trying this place after searching nearby for some sushi. My boyfriend and I really enjoyed the food. It was delicious and the edamame was our favorite part. We already have plans to come again and try the Shocking Lobster and Gyoza. They do not sell fountain drinks but they have a big selection of drinks to choose from. Service was great and the host/cashier was attentive and nice. We ordered at the front then sat down to wait for the food and it was later brought to us. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It was empty when we arrive but slowly picked up with people. There's plenty of room to sit and it's a cute little spot.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I would recommend this place to anyone in the area.

    Miso Soup Gyoza (6pc) Crunch Roll
    Ashley C.

    Cool little sushi shop in a random little plaza right smack on Wardlow and cherry . I believe it's all other food places here in this small plaza so there is parking available to patrons. I have been here on 3 different occasions & have done both dine in & take out ! Usually a creature of habit so have got basically the same thing every time and it's been the crunch roll , gyozas, & miso soup & they smack every time. Service here is good , it's always the same lady and she's very nice. I've noticed they have lunch specials but have not come on during those times ! Plenty of room to dine in . Very nice and neat in there !

    Restaurant is accessible from freeways, no issues finding parking on a Saturday night. Located just off Cherry street. Food was amazing! We ordered several rolls and nigiris, as well as some miso soups. We were satisfied with the amount of food as well as quality. Food came fast, we did not wait long despite being a party on the larger size (7 people). I highly recommend Akii Sushi! [[HIGHLIGHT]]Staff were very friendly, space is clean, and prices are very affordable.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The next time I'm in the area, I'd come back again.

    Angry Special Roll Sunset Special Roll

    Drove Past This Place Too Many Times, So My Husband And I Finally Decided To Give It A Try. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The Place Is A Bit Small But Welcoming.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I Don't Like The Fact That We Have To Order And Pay At The Front Before Being Seated. Been To A Different Sushi Place That Did The Same And Had A Horrible Experience But I'm So Happy That This Place Didn't Disappoint ! I Ordered The Angry Roll And Sunset Roll. I Love Spicy Sushi And Their Angry Roll Was The Spiciest Sushi I Have Ever Had. It's So Delicious ! The Sunset Roll Was Also Delicious And It Help Calm Down The Spiciness Going On In My Mouth LOL.... My Husband Ordered The Beef Teriyaki. He Said It Was A Bit Too Dry. He Won't Be Having That Again... I Would Defiantly Be Back Again But My Husband Would Have To Try Something Else On Their Menu

    Mix Tempura (6pc)

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]loved this spot!! It's a very intimate space tucked away off Cherry, but don't let that deter you.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The service was so friendly and welcoming and the food was great. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I came in with 7 friends and even though there's not a lot of seating inside, they helped accommodate our large party and got us seated right away.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We ordered a lot of sushi, some rolls, and some starters (the tempura was great, and the chicken wings were actually SOO good and super juicy and tender) and the food came out pretty quickly too. The fish was really fresh and the proportions of fish to rice was perfect. The rice texture and flavor was really nice too. Would definitely recommend this spot if you're craving sushi in the area!

    Came here with a group of 7 friends and we had a great experience! We got seated and received our food very quickly. We ordered a variety of rolls, sashimi, chicken wings, miso soup, and tempura. Everything was delicious and flavorful! The location is a little lowkey tucked away but I would def recommend this for lunch or dinner! Parking was easy since there is a lot in front of the restaurant as well.

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]Peaceful, cool, clean sushi sit-down and take-out place to grab a quick bite to eat.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The Dragon Roll and California Roll were delicious and just what we needed on a hot day. Thank you to the employees for being courteous and welcoming.

    Philadelphia Roll
    Eva O.

    Food was delicious and the food was served in a very timely manner. We ordered the Philadelphia roll with a teriyaki chicken plate. The plate was enough for two! [[HIGHLIGHT]]Even though they may have had some AC problems I couldn't tell as they had two fans going to keep the room at a good temperature.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    Jalapeño, garlic chicken wings, Angry Special Roll, Sapporo
    Jemila P.

    After waiting in a short line, the cashier explained the lunch specials and gave a nice warning about the heat on the angry roll - I almost changed my mind. The restaurant space is cozy and decorated with real plants, but wasn't crowded. I started with a delightfully stuffed fried jalapeño followed by the 6 piece garlic chicken wings - crispy, somewhat sweet, and well-seasoned. The angry roll was indeed spicy (not overwhelming) and delicious! Typically sushi can be too rich for me, but I was able to eat the entire roll without issue. The tuna portion was generous to the degree that it was enjoyable and filling. There was a strong selection of sake, beers, and soft drinks - I chose Sapporo. Other diners ordered several entrees that I'll have to try on another visit.

    Food was amazing! We appreciate the lady that assisted us. She held the front down. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Inside is very small. Not most for big groups.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I will definitely be back.

    Sushi Beluga is quite unassuming, yet one of the best sushi places in all of Long Beach. Their fish…read moreis definitely higher quality than the majority of sushi restaurants you'll encounter. I've had a wide range of their sushi rolls and nigiri, and they've all been amazing. Some standouts: Salmon Sample, Aburi Miso Salmon, Toro, Salmon Lemon Roll, and Yuzu Roll. My favorite appetizer is the Agedashi Tofu. The flavors are insane! They also have a "bento box" type of option where you can choose two or three items for a great price. This is a great option for non-sushi eaters and sushi eaters alike because the options include chicken teriyaki, chicken katsu, tempura, and several roll options. Service is usually pretty good. They have some outdoor seating available in front of the restaurant, which is lovely during good weather. A great place for a solo dinner, date, or a friend/family dinner.

I was the only patron at around 6 pm on a Wednesday night. The server was fantastic; attentive and very friendly, but the food was mediocre. The Edamame was mushy and the Tempura was so so and also mushy. Both seemed overcooked. I ordered a variety of Nigiri Sushi which was adequate but very average at best. Nowhere near the 4.7 starts this place was rated. I will say the Toro Maguro was good but the rest of it was average.

The atmosphere was warm and welcoming, and I believe the owners were there that evening, they were incredibly kind and even toasted with me a few times, which made the experience feel extra special. Every dish was beautifully presented, incredibly fresh, and packed with flavor. I wish I could tell you exactly what everything was, but my ADHD memory isn't doing me any favors . What I do remember is that every bite was delicious. The sashimi melted in my mouth, the nigiri was perfectly prepared, and the presentation was stunning from start to finish. If you're looking for high quality sushi in Long Beach, this spot is absolutely worth a visit. I already can't wait to go back. P.S. The photos probably do a better job of remembering what I ordered than I can.

I went with the teriyaki beef ($2 up charge), mixed tempura (one shrimp and mixed veggies), and spicy tuna roll. Deb went with the chicken teri, mixed tempura, and salmon roll. The bento box comes with miso soup, and green salad with a ginger miso dressing. We both enjoyed our bento box. However my teri beef was tough. I probably should've sent it back and got the chicken instead. We loved the mixed tempura. It was crisp and not too greasy. I also liked my spicy tuna roll. Service was friendly and attentive. There's plenty of parking which is shared by Target and other smaller stores in the same lot.

The ONLY downside for us was the service. About 7 min before we received some water and out in drink order. Another 10 before they even returned to obtain an appetizer which was the cebiche- so good! For dishes I highly recommend trying the sushi nikkei tasting (they also have a sashimi tasting): the flavor profile was WILD - nothing like I've had before in the area, perhaps even riveting some well known LA/ Hollywood/Culver city areas!! Definitely distinct flavors. We also had the Acebichado Roll and Oba Roll - OMGoodness, so delish! Anyway, although service was a tad slow in the beginning (they were busy, we went on a Friday, sat by the wall behind a beam), the owner was on top of it and my partner and I kept complimenting the food! So 5 stars it is - can't wait to do a double date with my folks who both LOVE sushi/sashimi

The food is delicious and Eduardo keeps adding new items to the menu. We tried the scallops with aji amarillo and some other items that he ordered for us. The grilled scallops are still the best scallops I've had anywhere in South America. The blue crab handroll is another not to miss item on the menu, you can order it with scallop. The staff are like family, the nicest and friendliest team. Daiwa and Eduardo run their restaurant as a family business and everyone involved is extended family. Her friendly ese and grace is what has driven us to be regulars. The place is modern, dark and moody. It highlight Peruvian artistry in both the kitchen and the salon. If you're looking for elevated and different sushi In the LBC, sushi Nikkei is definitely your go to spot.

I did not come prepared for a chilly night. We were supposed to just have coffee and go for a walk, but we needed a warm place, so we stumbled upon this place. It's actually pretty good. We sat at the counter/bar. The servers were nice. What we got: Salmon/tuna poke bowl: quite yummy. A mixture of both salmon and tuna in a great poke sauce over a bed of rice and salad. Salmon skin salad: if you like salmon skin, this is yummy. A perfect crunch seasoned really well to complement the bed of greens. Furikake fries: thinly cut potato's with furikake seasoning paired with a sweet mustard dipping sauce. I would have enjoyed more Furikake on the fries, but that's just me. This place has real wasabi if you ask for it instead of the watered down stuff you usually get. It's actually pretty good! Overall great food and great service. I'd come back for sure!
