" The service at Akira Seabright is a bit hit or miss – my friends and I experienced very attentive staff, but I've seen others comment on slow service. However, the real star here is the food. We tried a range of rolls and each one had a unique spin that pushed the boundaries of traditional sushi, though sometimes the flavor combinations felt a little off. Overall, I was happy with my experience and left satisfied. " (*Curated Review*)

" Great spot for casual dining. The sushi is fresh and unique with some exciting flavor profiles I had never seen before. They did a nice job with a gluten-free menu. It filled our bellies at a reasonable price. I liked the experience and would come back next time I am in Santa Cruz. " (*Curated Review*)

" What a delightful experience at Akira! I came here feeling hungry and left full and happy! The sushi rolls were fresh, and I loved the unique pairings that made the meal special. The staff was polite and attentive, making it a lovely dining atmosphere. I can't wait to return! " (*Curated Review*)

" Disappointment is the best word to describe my last experience at Akira Seabright. The roll I ordered had a strange flavor that I couldn’t pinpoint, almost burnt yet mushy altogether. The server was polite and attentive, but the food quality did not match the high expectations I’d built in my mind based on previous visits. I’ll have to reevaluate if I’ll return here in the future. " (*Curated Review*)

" Visiting Akira Seabright multiple times, I've noticed the consistency in freshness and flavor among most rolls. However, they tend to vary in creativity. Some rolls pack a punch with flavor, while others are more subdued. The ambiance is perfect for a quick lunch and the staff is friendly. I always leave feeling satisfied and eager to come back for more! " (*Curated Review*)

" I went to Akira for dinner after hearing about their vegetarian options. It was a delightful experience! The veggie rolls were creatively made and tasted amazing. The atmosphere felt vibrant and energetic, although a bit noisy. Service was fast, though our server seemed overwhelmed at times. I would definitely return, especially for the happy hour specials! " (*Curated Review*)

" Akira Seabright is a bit of a mixed bag. The service was friendly, but the rolls I had were a bit bland and lacked inspiration. The atmosphere was cozy, which made it nice post-beach. I think they offer good vegan options, so I may give them another chance to see if I can sample their creative rolls. " (*Curated Review*)
