Big shout out to the front desk staff tonight. I’m always treated well here which is why I always grab a bite at Akahana when I’m in the area. I always look forward to my meals here

The Sushi is always fresh and they have an awesome BOGO standing menu. Service is really good and the atmosphere is comfortable. I am so glad this place is close to my house.

I love the seafood pho, the seaweed salad, the BOGO sushi rolls (my favorite is the Sunset roll), the fried calamari, tempura shrimp and vegetables, and mixed vegetables stir fry in white sauce with fried rice are my go to dishes, but I haven't had a dish here I didn't like. Good atmosphere and service as well.

I’ve eaten at this location 3 times now. The chicken fried rice is very good (I’ve had it twice) but I feel like for what it is it’s very pricey. My latest experience I got two spicy tuna rolls and a house salad. The house salad was almost 7 dollars and looked like a side salad - a small one at that. The spicy tuna rolls were warm when I picked them up. I put these in the fridge and even when properly cool they weren’t superior to some much less expensive sushi I’ve gotten. The buy one get one is really not even worth it considering the slices are quite small. I’m pretty disappointed with the quality of the sushi and serving sizes. I would consider carefully what you order and skip the salads/spicy tuna. Just overall very bland and small amount for what you pay.

Stopped in here for dinner. I sat at the bar. The bartender was friendly and attentive. They have a special every day of buy one get one free. This was the perfect opportunity to try different rolls! The sushi as fresh and delicious.

this is my go-to Sushi take out spot because you just can't beat the BOGO deal! I love their spiral ecstasy roll, cherry blossom roll, orange blossom roll, and deep sea roll. They are always are on my order right away and I'm thankful for the quick service!

Great little place. Tucked in the corner of the strip mall. Food was great. Beef tataki was excellent & the pho with chicken was great. Very large portion on the pho. Service was outstanding.

Akahana is consistently excellent! The food is top notch and very reasonably priced, and we had excellent service. Love this place!

Very mediocre and pricey for just ok food. Probably won't come back. I'd rather spend a little more money somewhere else and get a higher quality meal.

We have been going to Akahana for many years and it has been our Asian food go-to. However, since the new owner has taken over, we have been more disappointed with each visit and have finally given up trying. The food is not prepared as well, recipes have changed for the worse, amenities inside have undergone changes toward obvious cost-cutting (no more nice napkins and a ramekin for sauces/soy is now a small disposable ketchup cup), drinks made at the bar are not prepared well, the overall experience doesn’t feel special anymore, it’s just not the same restaurant with the high standards the former ownership had. Still on the hunt for our new neighborhood Asian place and saddened at the loss of this place that holds so many memories of family and friends gathering for a great Asian dinner. ?

Tried dining this place, liked the calamari fry, ordered Singapore noodles, shrimp tempura, I felt their taste was okay, we ordered sake and it was too good, service was excellent and the place was ok for normal dining and catch up place with friends, should try going back again for trying their spl dishes.
