best in Sacramento generous portions quick service
Came with my wife and got the ramen and katsudon.
Ramen was good. The katsudon had more rice than I would have liked and also lacked enough liquid to really get through to all the rice. I probably wouldn’t order that again.

Akebono is a popular neighborhood spot for sushi, known for its consistent quality sashimi and friendly service. The restaurant is larger than it appears, with a spacious back room for larger groups. The menu offers a wide variety of options, from bento boxes and curries to appetizers and sushi. While some dishes may be better than others, Akebono is praised for its consistency in quality and portion size. Prices are on the higher end, but many customers find it to be worth the cost.
The sushi is tasty, and the restaurant has tons of options. It can get very busy, but they have a lot of seating to accommodate. The staff are nice, and the restaurant has a high-energy atmosphere. Customers have enjoyed the fresh sliced lemon on top of some rolls.
The quality of the food has remained consistent and good over the years. The portions are large, and the service is friendly and quick. Eating at Akebono is a comfortable experience, like "comfort food" for some customers.
The Saba Shioyaki, lightly salted and grilled mackerel, is a standout dish, with one customer describing it as the best tasting fish they have ever eaten. For those who enjoy Saba, Akebono is a must-try restaurant.
