This place is amazing! The service is exceptional and friendly, and they make sure you have whatever you need. The restaurant is clean, the seats are comfortable, and there is very aesthetic, color-changing lighting. There are plenty of tables equipped with a bottle of soy sauce. But what really matters about a restaurant is the food, and Akashi absolutely nails this aspect. I ordered sushi at a restaurant for the first time here, one California roll and one Philadelphia roll. Each roll consisted of 8 pieces. I really enjoyed the Philadelphia roll. The California roll was good as well, though I personally think that I would enjoy sushi with fish. Like I said, this was my first time having sushi at a restaurant, and the sushi here is delicious. The family dinner is also tasty and gives you

★★★☆☆ 3.0 Kelly Moody · Apr 2025

Akashi, a restaurant offering a mix of Chinese and Japanese dishes, provided an overall pleasant dining experience, though there were a few hits and misses in our meal. My husband opted for the sashimi platter and a spicy scallop hand roll, both of which he absolutely loved. The sashimi was fresh, and the hand roll had a satisfying balance of flavors and a slight kick from the spice, making it a standout. I went with the family entree, which came with a choice of soup. I chose the wonton soup, but unfortunately, the wontons didn’t meet expectations. The texture was off, though the broth itself was flavorful and comforting. The appetizer platter included an egg roll, which turned out to be my favorite part of the meal, along with a fried shrimp and a crab wonton. While the shrimp was fine,

The customer service is super friendly and helpful. However, the food is OK. I tried the hot and sour chicken and it was extremely underwhelming. The atmosphere itself is nice and vibrant.

★★★★★ 5.0 Moi Nevarez · Oct 2018

We came last night, food was great, restaurant was very nicely done, (feels and looks very trendy). If they can train the hostess on at least the basics of the business, (she told me she hasn't read the menu yet), so many customers left because the waiting time was extremely long, even though several tables were empty. And if they get a couple of professional waiters, this place will be very successful, I really really hope so. Will be coming back in a later day. 5/25/2021. We came back a few days ago. Food was fantastic! The service was incredible! The improvements are very noticeable, way to go guys!

had to sit an wait for our waitress who didn’t come out for maybe 15-20 minutes. She never came out and I tried to wave down another waiter, he proceeded to look at me and then walk off. I was shocked and wanted to order something for my friend’s birthday. I proceeded to get up after waiting another bit hoping the waitress would just come out. She never did, so I went to the bar and the guy had AirPods in. After a couple minutes I just walked back to my table and had to call the restaurant to get someone to the table. Decided just to take the check and leave. Food was good. Service sucked. Very disappointed.
