Was contemplating walking in here for some time and happy to say that I am pleased not disappointed with the food or service. The Salmon roll with avocado & sweet plantains, Chicken Chow Fan & Coconut Mojito were all delicious. It was a slow night where workers outnumbered patrons but that only made for a relax Covid19 post world dinner for me free from crowd.

My cousin mentioned this place specifically because they have "fusion" sushi rolls so we decided to…read moretry the $55 platter of 5 chef's choice rolls (there are only 6 on the menu) and although I liked the one that had some sort of Seafood mixture on top and the maduro on top, the rolls were very basic and took a long time to come. The smell of hookah coals being lit is very unappealing while trying to eat. They do charge 18% gratuity automatically and while the $8 happy hour margaritas were not bad they charged us $12 for two (not very cool in my opinion when we are only one of two parties there during happy hour). The calamari was almost too chewy to be good- but the seasoning and sauce saved it. The waitresses were excellent and seem to only speak Spanish- but I was able to get by with what I know to say. This is close to where my family lives and not far from where I grew up so it's nice to see new places- I would just come for drinks and hookah in the future though.

My first time going to this spot. It's literally a hidden gem. It's in a very secluded street so if…read moreyou don't know it's there you will definitely miss it. The food was great. They have a prefixed brunch for only $35 with bottomless sangria or mimosa for 2 hrs. You cannot beat that!! The waitress was so kind!!!! I told her it was my father in laws bday and I wanted a cake for him. I was so impressed by how discrete she was at asking if my father in law was the one sitting in the corner. I wish I would've remembered her names The machine for cards wasn't working which was the o my disappointing aspect. But that was very minor and I'm sure it will be fixed soon.

My meat came extra well done. I sent it back and it looked like they sent the same meat back again. I couldn't eat it and I eat everything.

I ordered the shrimp tempura , sashimi and California rolls. The shrimp tempura was 7pc for about $18 and the others were similar $18-20. You get a side of white rice and or miso soup. The food arrived fresh and tasted good. My only complain the rice was not my favorite way to sticky and bland. It's hard to find sushi spots in the Bronx so I'm glad this place delivers. This is not my go to spot but for delivery I would recommend prices are decent I think I would order from here again.

My husband and I were in NYC on business and Akura was only a few blocks from our subway stop and…read moreour meeting. We were surprised to see it was highly rated and decided to give it a try. We were not disappointed!! This restaurant on the Upper East Side looks unassuming but the quality, service and prices were all excellent. We started with pan fried gyoza and fried shumai. Not every restaurant offers fried shumai and I prefer it to steamed shumai, which sometimes has a slimy texture on the outside. Both appetizers were some of the best I've ever had, crispy, fresh and delicious. I ordered the lunchbox special with beef teriyaki. I couldn't believe the portion for the price. A lot of places make you choose soup or salad. This came with both, along with a California roll, white rice, some veggies, steamed shumai and the protein -- a choice of teriyaki chicken, beef or salmon. You could also order a sushi or sashimi lunch box for a bit more. The ginger dressing tasted fresh and delicious, with just a little spice. My husband ordered California rolls and spicy tuna rolls, also a lunch special. He said it was the best spicy tuna he's ever had! Akura is a bit off the beaten path for places we normally visit in Manhattan but we may just have to come back! Downside? No alcohol but you could bring your own with no corkage fee if you wanted. They served water, soda and even hot tea in stainless steel tumblers. I liked them for cold beverages but it was a bit odd for green tea. Not a dealbreaker at all - but interesting enough that I noticed! I kinda want the same glasses for my house as they kept drinks nice and cold! Very friendly staff, quick service - well deserving of 5 stars.

They set up the space beautifully, complete with a sushi bar, backdrop, and an attendant/server who prepared plates, made recommendations, and answer questions for those who were new or unfamiliar to sushi. I'm not new to sushi, but generally reluctant to eat raw fish due to past and unfortunate incidents related to the quality and freshness of the fish. Kiki assured me that their fresh was sourced from known sources, and though she didn't pressure me to try anything I wasn't ready for, I was later surprised to find that the raw salmon nigiri was probably my favorite among all the offerings. Attendees were able to watch two sushi chefs expertly prepare each and every offering, and it was a treat just to watch them work. I would highly recommend SKO for any event, and can't wait to give their restaurant a try in the near future.
