AKA Sushi - BRISTOW

The 4 rating is because the decor is boring and strip-mall like. For the price, I wanted more ambiance. We were a party of 4 on a Wednesday evening. We were seated right away and greeted like old friends. We ordered Aka balls, house salad, seaweed salad, and two of the combo platters. The sushi was among the best I've had. The rolls were creative and flavorful and the fish and vegetables were very fresh. Overall, It was an awesome sushi experience. Highly recommend.

We went to Aka sushi with a group and sadly it wasn't my favorite! The service was good but I thought the food was a little bland with what I got, but others said their dishes were extremely spicy. It seems like there wasn't a lot of consistency. The gyoza in particular was a little disappointing in that it didn't have much taste; I don't expect a lot from just a cucumber roll ha. I will say that the scallion dumplings were delicious and I would order them again. It was mostly just fried cream cheese as there wasn't a lot of scallions from what we could tell but they were good.

Aka Sushi is a Korean owned sushi restaurant located in the Bristow Center. It 's a smaller place, and it gets busy during the lunch and the dinner rush. The menu is pretty extensive, offering various appetizers (gyoza, Aka Ball, Ika Tempura, etc. , soups, salads, sushi, rolls, lunch and dinner specials, and desserts. If you look around the sushi bar, there are also specials posted. We came here for an early lunch, and we ordered: +nigiris (which comes in 2 toro, sake belly, and botan amaebi +the Bob Roll filled with grilled eel, avocado, cucumber, and crunch, topped with spicy salmon and sauce +the Captain Crunch Roll filled with shrimp tempura The sushi was fresh, and I actually preferred the nigiri more than the specialty rolls. Some of the toro pieces were a little 'wet ', though, so I wished these were patted down before the send off. Prices are definitely on the higher end, and note that as other sushi places, there are some options that are of market priced. Service was very friendly and welcoming. Plenty of parking in the shared plaza lot. +fresh sushi +friendly service +located in the Bristow Center +plenty of parking in the shared plaza lot

I went here with my friend and we were able to find parking right in front, there are plenty of spaces in the lot. When we walked in we were greeted by the friendly staff and seated right away. The ambiance was casual. We ordered the takoyaki and fried wontons for appetizer. The fried wontons were really good, but the takoyaki was a little on the mushier side so I probably wouldn't get it again. We ordered the playboy roll, salmon belly, salmon sashimi, salmon&avocado rolls, and I forget the name of the last roll we ordered. My friend and I enjoyed most of them except the last roll and playboy roll. The sushi quality is average here. Not very fresh but not the worst we've had either. Service was really good, our waitress was really friendly and attentive to our needs.

AKA Sushi is the best sushi place around IMO. Only 4 stars because there hours aren't as regular as I would like. Like why are they closed on Sundays? I also LOVE that they have a lunch special. The spicy roll combo is so good and it comes with a side of miso soup. All of their ingredients are so fresh and everything always tastes wonderful. The people who work there are also extremely friendly which I appreciate. Definitely give this place a try and maybe they will drum up enough business to be open on Sundays!
