I love Akami because they offer the highest quality sushi possible for the money you pay. I don’t usually eat at the restaurant, but every order I pick up is perfect and ready on time.

This place is my go-to sushi place. Their fish is so fresh and their service is amazing! The prices are fantastic, especially the three roll lunch special. Three rolls, soup AND salad for $16. Their ginger dressing is INCREDIBLE!

Came for a quick lunch as it is right around the corner from my hotel. Nigiri and sushi roll were bland. Miso soup was also quite lacking. Fish was definitely not as fresh as I would expect at a sushi restaurant. Wegman's to go has fresher fish. Rice was dry/hard.

Always great service, especially on work days when things are calm and food ? is coming quickly from the chef ??. This is the better option for sushi ? in the neighborhood, because of the size, price and quality.

Waited more than 20 minutes for food. Salmon rolls are weirdly sweet. Chicken is overcooked. Too much jalapeno in teriyaki.

Great little sushi and Japanese restaurant. They offer a fantastic lunch deal for $10.95 where you get soup, salad and a bento box with your choice of protein, rice, dumplings and a small sushi roll. Service was fast and polite.
This place almost never seems busy but we finally tried it and WOW it was fantastic! I particularly loved the Akami Sashimi Rolls they offer (in both 5 and 10-piece varieties) which are special rolls without any rice. I’d never seen anything like that before and it was an awesome and delicious way to have a sushi roll without all of the carbs of the rice.Will 100% go back!
If you actually go and sit down to eat, it’s probably the best sushi in the Yorkville area.

I really enjoy their lunch rolls, they are fresh and delicious and they have a great variety to choose from for the lunch menu. I really enjoyed their shumai and everything else I tried. The dressing on the salad is fresh, zesty and tasty. They always get my order right which I appreciate a lot because this does not often happen and so I really enjoy their delicious food. I want to try some other combinations so I can try more variety from the menu. The value is pretty great as well for the location. Everyone is very friendly and helpful and I really enjoy ordering the food knowing that it will be fresh and delicious. I’ll keep going there and would recommend that place.

I live close to this restaurant. I highly recommend going there and having the food. When you order food it doesn’t look and taste the same as it would when freshly prepared and served. Excellent lunch specials. Honestly the best japanese lunch specials in Manhattan.

I ordered the shrimp bento box. The shrimp looked like it was seasoned but really needed more flavor. I really wanted to add salt. Same for the tempura. Sushi was pretty good as was the salad and soup. Portions were good. I expected more. Oh well. Service was great though.
