Akari - Hamburg

At Akari you’ll find a piece of Japan in the heart of Hamburg. The restaurant is run by the Ohira family. The interior is best described as minimal elegant the staff is very friendly but sometimes overwhelmed when the place os fully booked what is actually the usual situation. A reservation is highly recommended. The food is fantastic yet follows typical Japanese values and quality. The menu offers Japanese classics from Ikuraoroshi, Agedashi and sometimes Shishamo. A true classic starter is Akari’s Yakitori served with home made teriyaki sausce. The chicken meat for all chicken dishes is cut from the chicken thigh the secret of the rich taste. Besides excellent Sashimi and Sushi the Ton Katsu and the Ebi Fry Curry is mouth watering. Overall the Akari is not the right place for a fancy modern Japanese food experience but you find traditional dishes perfectly executed

A small local Japanese restaurant serving a variety of cold and hot choices. Can get very booked up on Friday and Saturday in particular so make sure you book. Not an extensive range of sushi and sashimi available but what they do offer is always nicely presented and fresh.

Personal service and tasty food is to be found in this unassuming old school local. Its been there for years. A good spread of Japanese dishes. You dont need to do the sushi which looked good. We did tempura and ramen yummy.

Tiny restaurant, so reserve them in advance if they want to come to dinner. here is really great authentic eating offered

Cozy, very small Japanese restaurant. vegetarian and vegan options available. it is better to reserve as it is quickly full.
