“Akira Moorestown is now one of my favorite sushi spots! The food is incredibly fresh, delicious, and beautifully prepared. Their sushi is outstanding, and everything we ordered was excellent.

A special thank you to our waiter, Andy, who went above and beyond after I mentioned my allergies to onions and scallions. He carefully checked every dish—from the appetizers to the sushi, chicken teriyaki, and even the sauces—to make sure everything was safe for me. His attention to detail and genuine care made all the difference.

If you have food allergies or dietary restrictions, I highly recommend Akira. They truly take care of their guests, and the food is amazing. I'll definitely be back for many more sushi nights!“

“As soon as we saw this place open up and learned that they had authentic Chinese cuisine in addition to sushi, my family knew we had to try it. We got their pan-fried dumplings, mapo tofu, spicy crab, and house special fried rice. Everything was delicious! Pan-fried dumplings were juicy, flavorful, and tasted homemade. The mapo tofu was soft and tender, and covered in chili oil (a bit on the spicy side, but we all love spice). The spicy crab was REAL soft-she’ll crab deep-fried in a seasoned batter and quickly stir-fried in dry chilis. And the house special rice had a wonderful smokiness from the wok. SO MUCH BETTER than the rice at Volcano Hibachi down the road. If you want the best of both Japanese and Chinese (Sichuan) cuisine, RUN to this place!“

“Had dinner there last night was so disappointed that they no longer doing the hibachi cooking at your table…over all meal was good (shrimp fried rice was very good) …our server Nicole was gracious & very attentive…would go back but would try something different…“

“Great food! Convenient since they deliver!“

“Best Chinese food in the area. Good quality restaurant and service.“

“Absolutely incredible experience here at Akira. Came on a Tuesday evening and the place was packed! Both sides (regular and hibachi). Our server was so sweet and was so fun with our son. The place is loud so our son fit in just nicely.

Food is absolutely incredible!! The little slivers of ginger were the best I’ve ever had. I just wish it was the coarse sea salt on the edamame instead of table salt.

Will be back 100%.“

“I had a unique situation with my food last night and I wanted to thank the staff on duty for handling it so quickly and professionally!“

“Five stars delicious food“

“I've been coming here 15 plus years. Did take out last night. Food is always good, sushi is fresh - consistency is the key here. Lady who owns and her family are the nicest people. Can't go wrong here for eat in or take out. Very fair prices as well. Highly recommend.“

“Great food great service lots of fun“

“I got the $9.99 teriyaki chicken meal with fried rice and the new potato side. The portion was very generous, and the chicken was nicely seared outside and tender inside. Amy was very friendly and recommended the potatoes, which were really good!

I also ordered a mango lemonade separately. It tasted good but was a little too sweet for me. Overall, great food, great value, and great service!“

“The food is the best! Along with good service, friendly people and freshly made to order.“

“Good spot to grab something different from a burger and fries. The meal filled me up with spicy chicken teriyaki, rice, and vegetables. Employees are very friendly and engaging. As Arnold would say, “I’ll be back.”“

“They served us some of the best quality sushi my family and I have ever had.👌“

“Excellent quality with unique specialty rolls. A quick turnaround to plate & serve. Our favorite spot for sushi!“

“Delicious, fresh food but its ashame they dont give you much of it. I ordered the myabi bowl with extra salmon. It must have been 5 minutes before the waitress came back with my food. And when I looked down at my bowl I saw fresh colorful food ready to be eaten. The service was very good and I never had to ask for a refill of water. But when I was finished eating I was still hungry. This was when I realized why the restaraunt wasnt full of coustomers. There was not nearly enough food to satisfy me which made me really annoyed. I could have easily eaten 2-3 of the bowls, and thats saying a lot since I got extra salmon. I would only come back here for lunch since there is not enough food for a full meal. Ignoring the portioning though everything else about the place was excellent, and I will be coming back for lunch sometime.“

“we ordered delivery from Asian chef tonight, and when I got my order (bento box with salmon teriyaki, rice, shrimp shumai, and cucumber avocado roll). Instead of salmon, I ended up receiving shrimp teriyaki. I wasn’t going to call but I figured I may as well just let them know- the employee who answered the phone was so nice and apologetic, and immediately offered to bring me the correct protein that I ordered. I accepted the offer and asked if he wanted me to return the untouched shrimp order, but he said to keep it! then, I expected them to just deliver me the salmon to add to the meal, but they brought me an ENTIRE other bento box with the salmon! I was so shocked! not only that, but they also returned the cash to make up the difference in price on the order. they did NOT have to do that, but it shows so much about their restaurant. we also ordered some sushi, drunken noodles, and a seaweed salad and it did not disappoint at all. we will be ordering from asian chef again soon thanks to their kindness, and their excellent quality food!!“

“Just great Sushi and it’s all you can eat!“
