    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. 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. I would recommend this place to anyone in the area.

    Miso Soup Gyoza (6pc) Crunch Roll

    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! Staff were very friendly, space is clean, and prices are very affordable. The next time I'm in the area, I'd come back again.

    Drove Past This Place Too Many Times, So My Husband And I Finally Decided To Give It A Try. The Place Is A Bit Small But Welcoming. 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)

    loved this spot!! It's a very intimate space tucked away off Cherry, but don't let that deter you. The service was so friendly and welcoming and the food was great. 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. 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.

    Peaceful, cool, clean sushi sit-down and take-out place to grab a quick bite to eat. 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! 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.

    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.

    California roll.
    Gabby J.

    Location: This place is in a tiny busy center with other food places. Parking: They have parking, but during the lunch hour can be a bit hectic. Food: I ordered to go since it was my lunch hour, and I needed to head back. The order process was easy and fast. I ordered the salmon plate. It came with salad, gyoza, white rice, and California roll. The salmon wasn't anything special, and I will admit I'm very picky when it comes to salmon, so please keep that in mind. It was bland; it had no flavor whatsoever. The gyoza was okay, and the California roll was OK, too. I didn't try the salad. Service: The lady who took my order was pleasant and quickly took my order. However, once my order was packed and ready, I asked for hot sauce and was told it would be 25 cents. I didn't have it, so I told her never mind. She gave it to me anyway. Once I returned to my desk, I noticed the container with the hot sauce was half empty. (See picture) I mean, I get not giving utensils or sauces unless requested, but come on! If you are going to charge me, you better give me an entire container of what I'm PAYING you! This annoyed me for sure. I will try this place again, but it will be a while.

    The sushi is good and the workers are nice and if you get to go and you ask for extra sauce they will give it to you like the spicy Mayo .

    I had a scallop skewer, pork belly skewer, sashimi, and the famed Shinsyu premium Wagyu steak…read more Service was great in the beginning, but when my original server went home for the night, his coworker didn't hold the same standard. Its a small place, and it wasn't overly busy. Its likely that it was a slow night and server #2 appeared to be socializing with some friends seated at another table. In other news, I don't understand the hype over the Wagyu. In my opinion, it was oddly greasy but overcooked. No one asked how I like my steak - which is fine if that's customary in Japanese cuisine - but the end result simply missed the mark. However, I want to add that the owner was absolutely lovely! He made me a drink that resembled an Old Fashioned, and it was delicious. I can tell the owner truly cares about his restaurant - and for that reason - I'm willing to come back and try something different.

    Finally a good curry place near me. Tanuki (raccoon dog) is a Japanese curry spot that recently…read moreopened. While curry is their specialty they have other items such as udon, teriyaki, and donburi bowls as well as a few typical appetizers such as tempura and karaage. The restaurant is not very big but has a fair amount of tables. Its style has a mix of modern and traditional Japanese elements with lofi music playing in the background. We were given a friendly welcome upon entering and the service was great. We started with the mixed tempura which was light and crispy - a perfect starter that won't fill you up. For dinner we tried the beef curry and chicken katsu curry. Both were delicious. I had the chicken katsu. I really liked the breading as it was light and crispy - not too thick or greasy. The sauce was also rich and flavorful. I made it a combo which includes miso soup and a salad of choice. I selected the cucumber salad which was a little sweet but refreshing with the meal. I hope to try their donburi next.

    So stoked that there are more proper East Asian restaurants west of the 605 and south of the 91…read more My order was a chicken katsu curry takeaway. I called it in on a lazy Tuesday after hiking. Food didn't take that long but I like that there was a wait because I know it'll be freshly made. When I walked into the restaurant to pick up my order, inside was cozy and I noticed that it was pretty busy for a late Tuesday lunch. A really nice young woman who rang me up and handed me my bag of goods. When I got home, I was pleased to see that they had separated the Katsu from the curry sauce, so my meat didn't end up being soggy. Their curry sauce is different from most curry houses. There are some herbs in it that I can't put my finger on, but I love it because it's not like any of the others. Chicken was juicy and rice was fluffy. I also like their kizami ginger which had a nice solid crunch. Even though it took me a while to pick up my food, it was still nice and warm when I sat down to eat it. Very happy with the presentation and the flavour. We'll try to visit and eat at the restaurant next time. Parking lot is small and can get a little crowded with all the other businesses open. But there is also street parking available. Also, because it's a Japanese restaurant, they are not open on Mondays.
