Food was great! Service was a bit slow but it was the end of the day. very clean and not a lot of people.

The food is pretty good , the service can be pay a little bit more attention ( sometimes missing some order ) but good enough, the environment is clean and modernized. read more

Came here for the first time during lunch hour. We had a unhappy hostess/waitress. Maybe they should be trained to greet customers better. One waitress ask us how many people and what are our ages, than a second one came and asked the same question. I had informed her that I already told our waitress and she kept insisting on finding out for herself than rudely yelled out in their native language to each other. The restaurant looks a bit outdated. The food was good. The special rolls were made big and they were falling apart. Aside from that, even though this is the only location in Bradford, I would rather travel a little further for butter quality and service. read more

Akita Sushi - Pricing - Sushi Bars Near Me - Bradford, Ontario

They switched the seaweed they use for the sushi a couple months back. i find it very hard to chew now to the point where it's gotten stuck in my throat and i nearly choked. Sad to say i won't be frequenting as often after this experience. read more

I'm here right now and omg the food is amazing. I seriously don't understand why they have such bad reviews ? Many Asian restaurants don't have the best costumer service because of the language barrier so don't be ignorant. They refilled our waters and food came so fast. Also right now I'm assuming because of covid they're only doing dinner so $27.99 but it's really good. I don't live near here but I would come back for sure. read more

This is the worst sushi place ive ever been to the staff cant speak english so you have to act out your wuestions like a monkey, they dont bring your food, all the fish has bones and is slimy with a stench, the wonton soup was water with dough balls and glue inside everything tastes like chemicals . DO NOT GO HERE read more

Food ok. Found girl behind counter to be rude and condescending. This is the 5th attempt to give them another try. We done now. read more

I have never been here before and ordered the chicken teriyaki and vegetables which came with soup and salad and rice. Well the veggies is cooked cabbage and onions and the chicken tasted like tofu or just really over cooked. the salad was maybe 4 small pieces if iceberg lettuce size of index finger. I don't think I will go here again. read more

AYCE sushi. I used to love these places but have realized there is much better sushi out there. I also find I over eat at these places and feel lazy and tired afterwards. This was pretty much my first AYCE sushi I went to and have been to this establishment multiple times. Of all the AYCE sushi places I've been to I do find this place to be my favorite and my family feels the same. The restaurant is run by Chinese and most of the waitresses are also Chinese. Dealsies if you can speak Cantonese with them! The service here is good for the most part but I think they need a new organizational system as almost immediately after I order, another waitress is at my table asking me for my order. Another thing that prevents me from giving this place a higher rating is that they sometimes forget my order or part of my order and after a large order, the staff seems to slow down with the attention they give you. This is generally not an issue with 2-3 people but becomes especially annoying when you come with a larger group. Location: Bradford........ Akita is close to the Wal-Mart. Not a bad location I guess. The food: They are quick. The rice is always cooked well and the amount to fish you get is usually a fair amount. I say usually because again, after a large order, if you order another piece of say, teriyaki salmon, I've found my next piece is generally a bit thinner. Fish is fresh. As far as tuna goes, they only have white tuna. Their soba is filled with noodles (too much) and it tastes like the same broth for every type of bowl you get. Yummy though. As for me, I usually get the cold rolls or sushi: California, B.C., avocado, salmon and then salmon sushi or sashimi if I'm there for dinner. And then spicy seafood soba. I've eaten other stuff that family or friends usually get and the taste is delicious with almost anything I've eaten there except the tempura. Something about it I just don't like. 4 flavours of ice cream: red bean, green tea, mango and vanilla. Pricing: Don't know the exact prices but I was there for lunch today and for 2 people without any alcohol it was about $35. Anyway, will I come there again? Of course but just not often. Like I said, there are far better places but as far as AYCE, this place is great. read more

I've been here a few times now and the food is pretty good. However, the staff don't speak very good English and are very unenthusiastic to clear your plates and take orders. Some of the servers smelled like marijuana today which I find very disappointing. Although I enjoy the quality of food for $11.99 lunch special I won't be back due to the staff and the drugs here. Don't forget the bill includes gratuity. read more

Cocnut shrimp was a disappointment. The coconut flavour was all in the mayo, that I dont eat. I just knew that because my husband told me later when he tried it. The shrimp was absolutely without flavour. read more

Used Door Dash to order sushi as they have a 4.7 star rating on that platform... Needless to say I was very disappointed.. Order was not accurate and also the sushi was just bad... Paper thin pieces of fish and tasteless soups... When I saw they're yelp rating it all made sense.... read more

They give zero fucks at this place. They treat their customers like garbage and the food is either super greasy or it just doesn't show up. We had a special diet in our group so we ordered something specific for her THREE TIMES and it never actually made it to the table. We asked for water 4 times before it actually came. We also reserved a table for 10 and we were offered 2 booths back to back instead and were still charged the extra gratuity! None of us will be going back to Akita Sushi again. read more

The best sushi place in town. Staff is always very pleasant. They have recently updated their ordering system where you place your order through their iPad and it's very quick easy and efficient. I love it because theirs photos of each item on the menu. Some of the furniture in the actually restaurant should be replaced because some of the chairs are a bit old & torn. Other than that, it's clean and their food is delicious. read more

I had the All-You-Can-Eat Lunch on a Sunday around 2pm. Lunch AYCE menu does not come with the two items I really wanted: sashimi and Beef Short Ribs. I can deal with good food and poorer service (as a lot of Asian restaurants don't have great service) but when both food and service is mediocre at best... I think I would have given 2.5 stars if they had half star options. This is what I ordered: Item 1) one Spicy Salmon Sushi. This came as 3 pieces, raw salmon mixed with spicy mayo wrapped in seaweed (like the way they do the fish egg sushi) with some tempura bits sprinkled on top. Item 2) Kimchi salad. This didn't come, then I reminded the server when she came by so that she ended up grabbing this for me. Item 3) Salmon & Avocado roll. This came as expected, no surprises, which was good. Item 4) Snow Mountain Temike (handroll), has crab meat, mayo, shrimp tempura. Decent. Item 5) one order of Shrimp Tempura. This never came. Item 6) Spicy Salmon roll. I would never order this again from here. It's mostly tempura bits and the little bit of raw salmon that is lost in the roll it seems! I specifically asked the server what was in this roll and she said in her broken English that it had salmon and cucumber. Inaccurate description! I ate one piece and left the remaining 5 there. Item 7) Deep Fried Tofu. Nothing great. I guess I was hoping for Agedashi tofu like I've had at sushi restaurants in Vancouver. Item 8) one order of Sweet Potato Tempura. This came with 2 pieces. Their take-out menu that I had at home said AYCE Lunch was $13.99 but apparently that's not updated, it's actually $14.50. My bill came to $16.55 and I didn't order anything not included in the AYCE. AND that was with a $1.50 off coupon. I should have asked for a copy of my actual bill, as they didn't give me that when I walked up to the cash register to pay. I'm wondering if they charged me for the spicy salmon roll that I sent back -- again, I had told the girl that I didn't want this and that the other server told me there was salmon, cucumber, and spicy mayo in it but it turned out there was no cucumber and it was full of the crispy tempura bits with some salmon. Barely any salmon in my opinion. Lunch all-you-can-eat is supposed to be $14.50. So minus my $1.50 coupon makes it $13.00. Add 13% HST and it should have been $14.69. They charged me $16.55. I do recall another reviewer saying she wasn't pleased with the automatic $4 tip that Akita added to her bill for AYCE. Maybe they added an automatic tip to my bill that I didn't know about. I only tipped 9% for my bad experience but it looks like they still made about a 20% tip off of me. Conclusion -- not the best sushi, not great service, pricey for what you get. It's unfortunate that I'll have to drive 30-40Km out of Bradford to get better sushi. Best LUNCH All-You-Can-Eat sushi that I've had so far is Diamond Sushi in Barrie (they have better rolls, and Beef Short Ribs). $13.99 per adult Mon-Thurs for lunch, which is $15.81 after HST. read more

Akita Sushi - Take-out: Salmon sashimi, salmon & avocado roll. The 5 pieces of salmon sashimi is usually pretty small and thin. - Sushi Bars Near Me - Bradford, Ontario

No smile. No hi how are you. No how can I help you. No sashimi on the munch menu, no items from the grill on the lunch menu. And the food is very mediocre. Not recommended however it's the only sushi place in Bradford I think, too bad because if any other place opened up would be better than here read more

Worth the read -Went today with a few friends at lunch time. Two of the girls got there first so when I went in they were seated at a back table (no one else inside at all) and there was a young lady at the counter at the front door. On her phone. She didn't even look up. So I i though are you going to look up or no... nothing. So I went to the table where my friends were. Our last friend came in and the lady was still on her phone. So I just told her to come to the table because she won't acknowledge you. Five minutes later the one server came over to get drink orders. Asked what we wanted to drink- waters great thank you. She walks away. We order all kinds of yummy food from the all you can eat lunch. It comes out so quickly we didn't even know what to say- food was fantastic. As we were eating away the server comes back (table still full of food) and tells us that the lunch menu is done at 250 and if we want anything else we had to order it now. (245) including dessert! Umm ok.... We pick a few more things and ask that dessert not be brought until the food is cleared. Not 3 minutes later come the dessert- I asked them to take it back because we were still eating! Suddenly we hear all kinds of little commotions- well it's the staff/family now having dinner at another table. Including our staff. No one came over or was even available to top up waters while they ate. Brutal!! Then silence. They cleared their plates and everyone was gone. Except for the one man sleeping on the bench. Yes. You read that right. We were done long before they were but we waited and chatted. Finally I asked for our desert from the lady that finally walked by. (Keep in mind we are the ONLY people in the restaurant) we got our dessert and had to ask them to take the empty plates so we could have the room on the table. Finally we wanted to leave and I had to go to the girl at the front - yes. Still on her phone! And ask for the bill. I paid cash and was not offered any change. She literally walked away and didn't even offer it. Oh and they add the tip to the bill and don't tell you! And lastly; not even a fortune cookie was offered. read more

There are warning signs in life. A dog with the hair on its back standing up... A wisp of acrid smoke coming from an electrical outlet... The guy with the tinfoil hat and the hunting rifle... The place was packed on a Friday evening, and I was able to get a deuce by the front door, complete with a sticky surface. Warning number one. I should have known better than to forgo the All-You-Can-Eat sushi for something off the menu, but I wanted good sushi--not a carb loading. I saw a lot of "white tuna" on most selections, which should have been my second warning. I ordered the Sushi Fall combination, and substituted the white tuna (I hear there is no such thing as white tuna) for salmon. The meal started with a standard Miso soup and a lettuce salad with what tasted like a salmon dressing. OK so far. The sushi platter was a shock. Each piece was a handful of rice with a wallpapering of fish tissue on top. I then realized that ordering off the menu at an AYCE means they likely just make up your special order with the stuff pre-made that morning for the bargain eaters. The total amount of fish protein must have been less than 4 ounces, for $15. The spicy salmon hand roll, instead of being crisp, was chewy and flaccid. Normally I find a hand roll has fish right to the bottom of the cone, but this one faded to pure rice halfway down. The octopus sushi reminded me of accidentally eating a piece of pre-chewed gum a week later. I found that if I took the fish off two pieces of sushi and put it on one portion of rice, the proportion became reasonable. However, the fish was not as fresh as most sushi restaurants, and I would rate the freshness at the sushi kiosk in the food court of Upper Canada mall better. Should I have gone with the AYCE instead? No. At most restaurants, all you can eat is made in advance, so it could be sitting since the morning. Golden Maki in Newmarket does all you can eat the right way, making it mostly when ordered, and is pure gourmet in comparison. read more

The food was below average. There are a few decent rolls but it tastes like its not the most fresh. The service is absolute garbage. read more

This place has good sushi but there is an auto gratuity on every single order. They do not inform you of this when paying so be prepared to adjust your tip accordingly! Very sneaky practice. I will give this place five stars from my one star if they change this sneakiness. read more

First time at the place. Price is a bit expensive, maybe ok for a sushi. Food is ok, some very tasty. The grade is most related to the bad service. Even the manager/owner is not so nice. We just moved to Bradford, I told my wife it will take a long time before I try again. Better gead to Newmarket to get a decent japanese food. read more

I love all you can eat sushi and I have my favorite spots I like to eat, this is not one of them unfortunately. My boyfriend and I took some friends here from America and the food was really good and quick. They brought us some wrong items a few times and forgot my friends handrolls and sushi, which was...not cool. I live in Brampton and we used to have an Akita sushi, it was only okay as well. My group still had a good time and filled up on the food but the menu is limited when it comes to sushi items, focusing more on teriyaki and other non-sushi items. Meh. I would not go back because there are much better sushi restaurants around, with a better wait team and menu. read more

Never ordering here ever again. We ordered sushi and sashimi, sushi was sloppy and the white tuna on the sashimi was the thinnest I've ever seen. The salad dressing is crap. Overall not worth it. read more

This place is definitely my favourite all you can eat Sushi. I'm from Scarborough and I must say that this was definitely worth the drive. The food was incredible, they had so much of a selection! The waiters were so quick with the dishes and so kind. A few of them didn't speak much English but it didn't bother us. 10/10 definitely going to come here again. My boyfriend's family love this place too. read more

Overall disappointment servers are very rude and had a bad attitude. Sushi tastes like they were doing drifts on it in the parking lot. Cheese dumplings are fire though need to know there supplier read more

I went here with a group of five and this was my first sushi experience and the food was excellent... When it actually came. Many things we ordered would never come to our table. We would have to remind them and order the items again. The woman working was miserable and definitely did not want to be there which was unfortunate since I was really excited to try this place and we were there to celebrate. It was very expensive ($31) and I of course tipped. I later read there was a 10% tip already added to the bill. The debit machine still did ask for a tip option mind you. The price wouldn't of been an issue if the service was good and we actually got the food we ordered. I would of loved to try a few more thinvs The food was amazing - which was kind of disappointing since I wouldn't want to go back there due to the service. read more

Food is ok but they are terribly rude awful service too frustrating to eat here or even to take out. They do not deserve my business

Really bad service. Feels like they don't want you there. Too bad this is the only sushi place in bradford. I would drive to maple sushi in aurora than eat here. read more

I went for the ayce dinner. The server didn't really greet us at the door and wasn't that friendly either. There are a lot of choices in the dinner ayce menu but the quality of the food wasn't that great. The sashimi was cut in super small slices and they fill the sushi up with tons and tons of rice. I remember ordering a spicy salmon sushi and what came to the table was a mixture of tempura and spicy mayonnaise mixed together on top of the sushi... there wasn't even any fish in it. The kitchen food was ok... I remember the chicken teriyaki was pretty good and the dessert was pretty average. I definitely wouldn't choose to go back to this place.. there's a lot of better options out there. read more

Really bad service. Just bad sushi, lots of rice essentially no seafood. Save your hard earned cash. They need to close this place. How is it still open??? read more

I've ordered from here a few times during Covid through UberEats and my experience has always been great! They have a roll with yam tempura ad avocado with creamy crab on top, sooo good! The rolls aren't too big, which is great. The only reason I can't do 5 stars is because the tuna roll tasted a bit gritty last time. I would certainly order from here again! read more

Now fully open due to the rules being lifted for stage 3 of Covid, I've been here many times, and have always enjoyed the food. I've never had a bad roll from here. I see the previous reviews talking about bad service, and I've been here maybe 6 times now and only once did I have a disgruntled server. Food is always tasty, and comes quick. Only reason I didn't give 5 stars is because chefs are in the open and they're very loud, all the servers are. You can easily hear them yell at each other in their native language, disturbs a peaceful dinner. Other than that, I would recommend. read more

Great addition to the new restaurants in the area. Consistently good quality food and friendly staff. The lunch all you can eat rate is well worth it. Many platter options for take out. read more

I went here earlier with a couple of my friends. It was my second time going, and I was extremely hungry after the exams. Since this was the only sushi restaurant in town, we went to Akita's. Honestly, I would have to rate Akita's sushi a three. The sushi was OK, it was not the best nor was it the worst. The appetizers tasted better, in my opinion. My friends and I, ordered the cheese dumplings which were very delicious. We also ordered salmon, tuna, California roll, spicy tuna etc... It was not the best. As for the ice cream, I would say it is the best. There are many flavors that you can choose from and they all tasted really good. The service was terrible. It took us a while to get a waiter, and they got our orders mixed up many times. In the end, for an AYCE it's OK. The price at lunch of $12.99 is average, considering that it is the only sushi restaurant in town, and the quality of the food. The automatic $4 tip was very dissatisfying due to the fact that I did not enjoy their service at all. The quality of the food was OK but the service was terrible. read more

The food here is just ok but the service was brutal... the don't even let you sit down before they badger you for your drink order, 3 times in one meal where we given something we did not order or was missing avocado. I also didn`t enjoy the constant yelling from the kitchen or the Eminem CD playing on repeat. To top it off when we were leaving to pay our server decided to answer the phone and take a take out order and let us wait to pay. Also they add a 10% service charge onto the bill with out telling you (and we were 2 person table not a large group) and then there is a tip option at the check out. Skip this place ... its worth the drive to Newmarket for better service. read more

Tonight at 8:28pm I placed an order with Uber eats. At 8:31 I called to request no ginger or wasabi with my order. The girl I spoke with told me it was last call and I couldn't change my order. I got off the phone and Uber notified me they canceled my order. I called back and they said 8:30 is last call. I explained I placed the order beforehand and only called about sauce. Staff refused to honour my order. The girl I spoke with refused to reference her name for this review. She slammed the phone (without actually hanging up) and refused to answer when I called back. We used to always eat here but the staff are so rude and unprofessional I doubt we will again. The owners should be embarrassed by this - I doubt it's how they want to be represented. read more

It's very hard for me to rate Akita for a few reasons. But I give this place a 2 star because for my first experience I give them a 1 star and for my second experience I give them a 3 star... I came here for ayce lunch and had a horrible experience. Their service was slow, they were only offering sushi not sashimi on their menu so when I ordered the sushi, there was way too much rice and very thin layer of fish. I guess it's because they want to fill you up with rice lol. Also, the fish wasn't fresh at all. Their meat was a little too oily....My boyfriend and I couldn't even eat more than half a spoon full. Their udon noodle soup was good though. Another time, I came here for ayce dinner another time when they were offering sashimi and I had a better time. Their service was surprisingly better and their sashimi wasn't too bad. It was a bit fresher than the fish I had from the ayce lunch. Didn't bother ordering the meat because I just assumed it would be just as oily as before. But anyway, I actually left satisfied. The prices are the typical ayce sushi price. Whenever I come here, I'm never sure what to expect of how it's gonna go. I guess you can say it's a hit or miss. At the same time, this is Bradford... we don't have much ayce sushi options so I guess sometimes you gotta settle. read more

Check your bill before paying! They charged us $65 for two adults and when I had asked the female cashier why my bill was so high, she just pointed to the bill. We were charged 10% tips mandatory tips. It was an automatic charge! Two adults for dinner at an all you can eat $65! We did not ordered alcohol, just one pop and one water. Disappointing to be charged tips when their service was terrible. No smiling, no refilling of our water, just simply miserable people working their. They are not even Japanese people making the sushi! read more
