" The wait was a bit long, but the food was worth it! The sushi was fresh, but the selection was more limited than I anticipated. Prices are reasonable for the quality, and the service was friendly, if a little overwhelmed. I would recommend trying their specialty rolls! " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a lovely experience here! The miso soup was an excellent starter, and our main sushi dishes were delightful. I recommend the spicy garlic edamame! The atmosphere was nice, although the restaurant was quite busy. Just a bit hard to find parking, but overall, a great outing. " (*Curated Review*)

" While the sushi was decent, I found it lacked the authentic Japanese flair I was hoping for. The service was friendly, but my order took longer than expected. The decor is lovely, but it felt a bit cramped during peak hours. I might give it another chance to try different items from the menu. " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a delightful time at Akita! The rolls were inventive and packed with flavor. I especially loved the dynamite roll, it was a real treat! The staff were courteous and checked on us often. The restaurant was quite busy, but they handled it effectively. This place definitely captured the essence of what sushi should be! " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited Akita on a whim and was absolutely thrilled by the experience! The sushi was crafted with precision, and the freshness of the fish was unmistakable. Each bite was a joy. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, making it a perfect spot for an evening out. If you're a sushi lover, you won't regret your visit. " (*Curated Review*)

" Highly recommend Akita for anyone seeking authentic Japanese cuisine! The sashimi was incredible and the handmade rolls were delightful. The chef came out to chat, which made the dining experience feel personal. The food is a bit on the pricier side, but totally worth it for the quality you get! " (*Curated Review*)

" We had high hopes for Akita after hearing the buzz, and for the most part, it delivered! The sushi was delicious and very fresh, but we did find some portions to be smaller than expected. Overall, we enjoyed our meal and will likely return to try more out of their extensive menu. " (*Curated Review*)
