“I’ve found a new favorite Japanese restaurant! Real Japanese food made with actual Japanese ingredients, not the same as the stuff you find in mall food courts or at that [FAST]way chain joint. I ordered the Chicken and Steak Hibachi and the Chicken Yakisoba, and they were both delicious! Portions aren’t generous though, but healthy; you won’t feel overstuffed after eating.“

“The service is super quick, and the food is well worth the prices. I love the fluffiness of their onigiri--it's a simple snack, but one that keeps me coming back! The food is flavorful and has a really fun presentation for dining in. Lovely plates and bowls and pretty cool chopsticks. 1.6 starsThe atmosphere for dine-in eating is nice too. It's in a Lotte supermarket as part of the "epiQ Food Hall". Somehow though, the space has a vibe entirely of its own, separate from the hustle and bustle of noisy shoppers. You can definitely have a comfortable meal dining in with your friends, or a nice one-on-one lunch with your partner. 1.6 stars.If I had to detract full points from a 5 star review, it would be on price. The prices are not bad for what you get, but they could stand to be a dollar or two cheaper on some of the larger meals. I think that would really round this place out as a 5 star spot for quick Japanese food that doesn't skimp on portions, but also brings a quality meal to the table.Overall, I'd say 4.8 stars.“

“I don’t usually write reviews, but this stop honestly meant more than I expected. I’ve been searching for good uni for months…just hoping for one decent bite, something to remind me that life still has little joys. I thought I was ordering California uni (the price made me do a double take), but when it came out, it was actually from Japan. Real Japan uni. And it was everything I’d been craving.

The sushi bar itself was quiet, kind, and welcoming. They didn’t know it, but I’ve been going through a lot lately…and for just a few minutes, sitting there and soaking in that perfect flavor before running off to the next 500 things on my plate, I finally felt like I could breathe.

I’ll absolutely be back. That moment mattered. Thank you!“

“Best Sushi! Great atmosphere and staff!“

“Outstanding sushi, salad, soup and tempura. Great and attentive service. Akira Sushi hits the ball out of the park.“

“Come here every year for my birthday. The service is always great and fast. It’s dinner and a show. Jesus has cooked for us many times and he always recognizes my family and I. The chicken and steak teriyaki hibachi are my favorites. I love when they do the food toss at you to catch the shrimp in your mouth. The veggies always taste fresh and the food overall is amazing. If you tell them about a birthday they will come out with a big drum thing and sing for you- it’s hilarious. Overall a great place with amazing food!“
