" Wow, I honestly didn't expect to find such authentic Japanese food in this area. The grilled fish was incredibly tender, and the hints of garlic in the teriyaki sauce were perfect. I also loved the miso soup; it was such a comforting dish. Will return for sure! " (*Curated Review*)

" I have always enjoyed Aki's food, but my last visit was a bit slow in terms of service. The sushi was fresh, and I particularly enjoyed the spicy tuna roll. I hope next time the service can match the quality of the food. Still a great spot for authentic Japanese cuisine! " (*Curated Review*)

" What a delightful experience! The sushi was top-notch, and the family atmosphere is something you can’t find everywhere. Great ambiance and very inviting. The only downside was it took a little long for the food to get served, but it was worth it. I will definitely be back! " (*Curated Review*)

" Delighted to try Aki again after several years. The sushi still rocks, and I was impressed by new menu additions. The scallop nigiri definitely stood out. Nice vibe, and while it gets crowded, the ambiance is still welcoming. Will keep coming back! " (*Curated Review*)

" Aki is a family-run gem that reminds me of the cozy neighborhood joints in Japan. The tempura was perfectly cooked with a nice crunch, and the sashimi was incredibly fresh. I will definitely be stopping here again on my next visit to LA! " (*Curated Review*)

" Absolutely loved my previous experience at Aki. The sashimi tasted incredibly fresh, and the sliced lemon with salmon was a delightful surprise. The whole vibe of the place is very laid back, which makes it perfect for a casual dinner. Well worth the visit, just be sure to make a reservation during busy hours. " (*Curated Review*)

" First timer at Aki and it definitely lived up to the hype! Only downside was that it was slightly crowded, but I get it. The food was freshly made and delicious. I'll be back for sure! " (*Curated Review*)
