Great omakase, great value, great service! Def one of the best omakase’s in Boston.
Excellent food. Each bite was described to us with detail. For the price, you really can't beat this. Incredible value for omakase.
I’m truly impressed by the thoughtfulness and quality of food given the price point. This is better than those expensive omakase in Boston I’ve ever tried.
One comment - the sauce for eel hand roll is way too sweet & heavy - and it covered the natural umami flavor of the fish. Besides this, great experience!

Akami Omakase is a hidden gem in Boston, known for its incredibly fresh and delicious omakase. The chefs are knowledgeable, providing a high-end yet approachable experience. The price is surprisingly affordable, offering excellent value at $99 for a meal that features fresh fish, flavorful bites, and sweet shrimp, which many guests have enjoyed. The service is attentive, with a modern and sleek space that welcomes both sushi lovers and those new to omakase.
While the food quality is genuinely good, some guests noted that the experience did not fully deliver a high-quality omakase due to the scale of the operation. Accommodating 10 guests at the counter and an additional 6 or 7 at surrounding tables meant minimal interaction with the chef. Pre-prepared fish and visible training of apprentices detracted from the traditional experience of watching the chef prepare each course. However, many diners appreciated the enthusiasm of the main chef during the introduction of each dish.
Overall, Akami Omakase is praised for its high-quality food, skilled chefs, and excellent service, making it highly recommended for a fun and tasty dining experience.
