“HOURS NEED UPDATED. Facebook/online/their front door (everywhere) says they are open until 9:30 on Sundays. We went there to order takeout at 8:40 and were told we couldn’t because they supposedly close at 9. We love this place & work late on Sundays so this was really disappointing.“

“First time at this restaurant and what an experience!! I definitely recommend that everyone try this place out for a good time coupled with delicious food. The building inside and out was very clean. The hibachi chef was funny and nice as he cooked our food in front of us. We ordered hibachi, an appetizer and sushi. All were very good and came out quickly. I will be coming here again 100%!“

“Love this place! Great food, prices, and service!“

“We recently visited Taste of Japan on a Saturday afternoon around 3:30 PM and were honestly surprised to find a wait but after dining, we completely understood why! The estimated 30-minute wait flew by, and the experience was well worth it. The hibachi buffet was fantastic, offering fresh ingredients along with some unique options you don’t typically see. The sushi selection and hot bar were both well stocked and absolutely delicious. One of our favorite parts was being able to take individual pieces, which made it easy (and fun!) to try new things we might not normally order. We also loved that all the sauces were conveniently available at the end of the buffet so you could customize everything to your taste. The dessert bar could easily be the star of the show. They offered individual ice cream cups in multiple flavors, novelty ice cream treats, and a variety of bite-sized desserts cakes, puddings, brownies, and more perfectly portioned so you could sample several without feeling overdone. They also had a salads with ginger dressing that we unfortunately missed at first since it was located in the dessert case area, but we’ll definitely remember that for our next visit! The staff was polite, attentive, and quick throughout our time there, which made the experience even better. Overall, a great dining experience, and we can absolutely see why it’s such a popular spot. We’re already looking forward to going back!“

“Great people. Great food.“

“Excellent sushi rolls and service. Also such a beautiful atmosphere! It was our sons first sushi experience and he loved it!“

“Akitas Sushi is a very nice and organized Japanese restaurant to enjoy lunch or dinner. The inside is very warm and welcoming. Great customer service and great menu options. They offer other dishes besides Sushi, if you are not into Sushi. They also offer vegetable meal options, if you do not want meat or Sushi. The chicken hibachi was fresh, enjoyable and came in a large serving size. I recommend getting the Tea!“

“I ordered two 10 piece chicken to go and it was still crunchy after I got home (hour and thirty minute drive) and it tasted so good. the fried zucchini with spicy mayo was also delicious! I would say eating any kind of fried food is best as soon as you get it, but this place never disappoints!“

“Had the Mongolian Beef for lunch. It was so delicious. Maddie was my waitress and such a sweetheart, so helpful and attentive too.“

“My family has been getting food here for years and the food is always really great for a quick bite to eat at the mall and we have never been disappointed. My kids love the teriyaki chicken and my husband and I love to treat ourselves to their amazing poke bowls. They use quality sushi grade tuna and salmon. The salmon just melts in your mouth and all their fish smells fresh. The manager is so kind to our family and one quick witted jokester and makes us laugh. Our kids love seeing him and refuse to leave the mall without saying hi to the manager and his staff. Sad to see some negative reviews from people who seem to have 5 star restaurant food expectations on a economical gourmet budget. Can't accommodate everyones food preferences.“
