My experience at Volcano was so unprofessional and off-putting that it reflects a serious failure…read morein management not just a bad night. Our party arrived at 9:12 PM, nearly an hour before their posted 10:00 PM closing time. Before we were even seated, we were told that if we didn't place our order within five minutes, we would not be served. We hadn't sat down, hadn't seen a menu, and hadn't been greeted properly yet we were immediately met with pressure and dismissiveness. This is not a staffing issue this is a management issue. Properly run restaurants do not treat paying customers like an inconvenience simply because the staff wants to close early. If your kitchen closes before your posted hours, that needs to be clearly communicated and enforced professionally not thrown at guests in a rushed, borderline hostile manner. What's most concerning is that this behavior felt normalized, as if management has allowed or even encouraged staff to operate this way. That speaks volumes about the leadership and standards of this establishment. First impressions matter, and this one ensured I will never return. I would strongly caution others to reconsider before dining here, especially if you expect to be treated with basic courtesy and respect. Ownership should take a hard look at how this restaurant is being managed, because experiences like this don't just lose one customer they damage the reputation of the entire

Akami Sushi & Grill was a really pleasant surprise in Dawsonville. I honestly did not expect to…read morefind a sushi spot this good on the north side of Atlanta, but this place absolutely delivered. First off, full transparency: I am NOT some sushi expert. I'm not going to pretend I can break down every fish and technique like a professional critic. What I can tell you is simple -- I grabbed sushi, put it in my mouth, and it was yummy yummy in my tum-tum. That's my expert analysis. But seriously, the sushi was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. You really do eat with your eyes first, and everything coming out of the kitchen looked excellent. The rolls looked clean, colorful, and well made without being overloaded. Add in the soy sauce, wasabi, yum-yum sauce, and the whole experience just worked. The gyoza was an excellent starter. Nice crisp on the bottom, soft on top, and the sauce paired with it really well. We also tried the Beef Tataki. Flavor-wise, it was good, but I do wish the beef had been a little more tender. Personally, I'd probably skip that dish next time, but honestly this is a sushi restaurant, so I'm not going to hold one beef appetizer against them when everything else was very strong. The chicken tonkatsu with fried rice was excellent. Super crispy breading, juicy chicken, and the sauce on top tied everything together really well. Next time I actually want to try the pork cutlet because they clearly know how to fry food properly. Service was A+. Spencer took care of us and was a gentleman from beginning to end. Friendly, attentive, and made the whole experience even better. The inside of the restaurant deserves its own paragraph because they did an AMAZING job with the design. It's modern, spacious, clean, and honestly feels much more upscale than you'd expect in Dawsonville. The booths and tables are roomy, we never felt cramped, and the whole atmosphere makes it feel like a great date-night spot or somewhere you can actually relax and enjoy dinner. Pricing varies depending on the sushi rolls. Some are around $13 while others go into the $15-17 range depending on what you order, which honestly feels pretty normal for quality sushi these days. Also, one final important detail: When you leave, grab one of those little guava candies by the entrance. I'm telling you right now, those things are ridiculously good. Plenty of parking too since it's right there by the North Georgia Premium Outlets area. Overall, very happy with this place and definitely one of the better surprises I've had in Dawsonville in a long time. We'll absolutely be back. And yes... all of this was enjoyed properly with a Coke Zero because they are a Coca-Cola spot. PS: They gave me a membership rewards card that helped me save about 8 bucks Accumulate points as you continue dining in

The drinks were very strong so they have that going for them! There were a couple mistakes with our order. One item was forgotten and one item was prepared wrong but the manager came over immediately and removed the items from the bill. They offered to replace my sandwich and I declined, but then the chef named tommy came out from the kitchen and he had made me another one and he apologized for his mistake which really wasn't a big mistake but very very much appreciated how attentive they were and how they made things right. The food is good pretty much what you would expect no surprises everything tasted good. Would most likely go back to this location. Should also mention that there are tons of TVs if you want to go there and watch a football game.

I expect more than that from my willingness to spend money as long as the food, the Service, and the atmosphere is decent.

However, if it were located closer to Buford or Duluth, where there are many other KBBQ spots, I would rate it a 4. Lunch AYCE ($20 for BBQ or Hot Pot | $25 for both) *You cannot find a KBBQ for $20 lunch nowadays - so at this price point, it's great! Meats are solid. The SK steak is tender and highly recommended. I also enjoyed the brisket and pork belly. The meats were good cuts, without excessive fat. The hot food items are plentiful with japchae, cheese corn, tteokbokki, chicken wings, fried rice, egg rolls, and mashed potatoes. I also saw shrimp cocktail, seaweed salad, kimbap, kimchi, and edamame. For dessert, they have fruit, banana pudding, mango jelly (yum!), and a variety of ice cream. The service was exceptional. The servers were incredibly friendly and attentive, ensuring that our needs were met throughout the meal. The bathrooms are clean and well-lit as you make your way there. Overall, we had a great experience and will be recommending this to our wedding guests!

Well an ice cold Horchata or a grande Guanabana will take care of any thirst or heat. We received much help and great service from Vanessa and kitchen staff.
