    Spider roll and Incredible roll
    Natty C.

    Pretty standard sushi spot. It's very casual inside. I came on a Sunday afternoon and we were the only ones there. (FYI they open at 1 PM on Sunday) I guess most people order delivery or to go. I ordered two specialty rolls, the Incredible roll and Spider roll. They were pretty good. I have no complaints. Prices were standard. I would probably just order to go next time.

    Plastic in my tempura

    Ordered delivery & had a piece of plastic in my tempura. Called to notify the restaurant immediately (around 4:30 so should be before dinner rush) & no answer.

    2 Spicy Crabmeat & 1 Tuna Roll  L9. Any 3 Rolls Lunch

    Nope...just...nope. I had a taste for sushi last Friday so I called this spot. I've eaten their food one time before with zero issues so I figured "why not?" I was in CVS when I had this bright idea to call and order ahead of time. I called and someone picked up. I asked about their specials as I know I had gotten 3 sushi rolls before for a good price. The guy who answered was "short" with me- abrupt to say the least. I could hear in his voice he was "busy" as I inquired about his menu specials. He told me that 3 rolls would be 20-something dollars. I felt that was pricey but told him to please place my order. That's when I realized my phone automatically picked up my car's bluetooth and the guy probably couldn't hear me at some point. I realized he hung up on me for that reason. :( I called back and got the same "irritated" unfriendly guy. I asked him if he received my order and apologized that we were cut off. Unfortunately my car's bluetooth picked up again and he hung up on me very quickly...again. Okay question...as a business employee if a consumer calls - not once but twice to try and place an order and you sense there's something going on during the call that allowed the call to disconnect, wouldn't it be common sense protocol to call back your customer? Well dude didn't call me back and I felt like I'd had enough of his rudeness so I didn't call him back. Instead I called "Go Sushi" in Scotch Plains to place my sushi order. Scotch Plains is quite a bit further out then this place which is up the street from my house but...I'll take the trip to have better service AND better sushi on any given day. Oh and the price is much better also! I will not be coming back here nor will I be placing any phone calls.

    R52. Christmas Roll R7. Spicy Tuna Roll
    Roger H.

    I absolutely love sushi rolls with tuna and this place did not disappoint! I ordered my staple spicy tuna roll that I get from every sushi place as well as their special Christmas roll. The rolls were so good that I felt inspired enough to pause eating them to write this review! I'm sad that I did not discover this place sooner as today is my last day at my job up in Kenilworth. Although maybe I can justify a few trips on occasion to swing by again!

    I'll be honest when walked in the place didn't smell good. I can't put my finger on it but it smelled foul. After a little bit I didn't smell it. Almost like burnt hair... There was only 1 person working when I went around lunch time and to my surprise it was really packed! I'm glad I stayed despite the smell because the sushi was amazing!!

    End piece of the asparagus
    Hala A.

    I just ordered 2 rolls and a clear soup from here for delivery and that was just awful! It was my first time trying this place and it was quite disappointing. The sushi was not fresh and was covered by layers and layers of mayo. One of the pieces had the end piece of an asparagus that should have been thrown out not in a roll. They also gave the smallest amount of wasabi and the clear soup tasted old. I had to throw both rolls out

    Spicy shrimp roll and the incredible roll.
    kim m.

    Called in my order on a sunny Friday afternoon and 15 minutes later I'm eating a spicy shrimp roll in the sun. Easy pickup from the front door. (Parking tip - pull in and park in the strip - then walk down. There's no exit by their end). Also had good hamachi sashimi. Tasty and fresh.

    Sushi dinner combo with tuna roll
    Lea M.

    I've ordered delivery from Sakae Sushi many times. They have a nice menu with many different options. I usually order a sushi dinner combo and a bento box. The chicken teriyaki was a little dry and didn't taste super fresh. The sushi dinner was good but the tuna quality in the tuna roll wasn't the best. The delivery is quick and the sushi is decent. Not spectacular but usually a safe choice for delivery.

    Always very friendly, good food, I always get take out due to my job. Prices are a tad high, but what can you do? I enjoy this place.

    Sat outside on a lovely evening! Service was quick and friendly. We wanted to try some new things…read moretonight, so my friend and I ordered a few small plates to share. The akai tuna salad was refreshing and a great start to the meal. We also loved the soup dumplings and akai tacos. The meat inside the "tacos" was so flavorful and the pickled radish on top was such a nice crunch! The shrimp tempura roll was stuffed full!! What a lovely meal.

    My friends and I had a reservation for three on a Thursday evening and were surprised to find the…read morerestaurant very busy once we arrived. We had to wait ~15 minutes for a table to open up before we were able to be seated despite having a reservation. There was a large (and disruptive) party next to us and it seemed like the place was understaffed as our server wasn't able to attend to us much and he seemed frazzled. For appetizers, we had the vegetable gyozas and fried wontons. Both were pretty unimpressive and I wouldn't order them again. I ordered the tempura udon for my entrée which came with a bowl of miso soup which was pretty good. One of my friends got the D.E. warrior roll which was quite pricey (~$30) and was chewy since all the meat was cooked. My udon was decent and came with two shrimp tempuras and two broccoli tempura as well. However, I wasn't a fan of the spinach that came inside the soup. Overall, we had a satisfactory time at Akai but we don't think we would return.
