Service is ALWAYS amazing and such a modern and clean restaurant , food is always top notch when it comes to the sushi . I got the calamari salad, not my cup of tea, was too rubbery for my liking Bento box for lunch was a good value but not sure I would do it again because I couldn't eat most of it due to texture But again I LOVE their sushi!! Crab Rangoon roll' spicy tuna roll, spicy Cali roll!! All must haves in my book!! read more

I would never expected to find such and enjoyable Japanese dinner in Jackson, MI. AKA Sushi has become my "go-to" whenever I'm in town on business. I'm not the biggest sushi eater so sometimes want a Japanese entree and some miso soup. This was the case on this particular visit. The sushi bar looked great but I really wanted soup, rice and protein. If you eat beef, I highly recommend the Beef Wrapped Asparagus appetizer. A serving of this and rice could be a meal itself. My main was Chicken Teriyaki. It arrive well seasoned and most. So often teriyaki chicken breast are dry and basted in thick sauce to give flavor AKA's sauce and as light and could have been omitted given how succulent the chicken breast was. The space is small but perfect for meeting up with friends or solo dining. The overall ambiance was extremely welcome with an accommodating staff. read more

This charming little spot was a place right off the highway, which I happened to see while stopping off for gas. The front doesn't quickly shout "awesome sushi", but once you open the door, you may be presently surprised. On a Friday night around 5:30, the place was close to being full, so I took a seat at the sushi bar. Immediately I was attended to by a server who took my order for drink with menus in hand. I am a sushi snob so while not expecting much, was pleasantly surprised that service and food service was quick and looked elegant. I was then asked how my food was a few times a something I feel has been lacking even at the best restaurants. Sushi quality is above par and the portions more than filling. If I lived in the area, this might be a spot I would frequent. I will have to remember this little gem the next time I'm in the area! read more

Ordered 2 sashimi rolls they came out a dime size roll. basically an appetizer. Had to go pick up something else to be full. And normally two rolls anywhere else is plenty. Very clean very nice place service was awesome but the rolls were not rolls. read more

The sushi rice either isn't being seasoned anymore, or the ratios of vinegar are way off. My last two orders were almost inedible. I'll be back but just for sashimi. read more

I've gone to AKA several times and find that the food and service is very consistent. The adult beverages are good and some rotate depending on season. The staff is attentive and the area is usually very clean. read more

Good Sushi ! Went here with my work buddies today. The food was very good and the place was busy at lunch. Service was not bad either. I would definitely visit again , especially if i am driving somewhere on I-94 through Jackson. My favorite was the Angry Bird Sushi Roll and the Mach E. I didn't quite like the Beef and Asparagus read more

I never had sushi before until I went in there it was delicious I never thought I would love raw fish but I did love the way that they prepared it for me. And I got drunk drinking one of the more popular whiskeys or the best buzzes I ever had thank you AKA read more

We have eaten here since they opened and have always enjoyed the food. We preordered pickup, online, for the first time today. BEWARE - some of the pictures on their order site look nothing like what we picked up. The sashimi appetizer picture had (8) large pieces salmon sashimi and the actual order had 3 thin pieces of assorted sashimi. When I called to talk to the manager he said sorry, those are not our pictures on their website. read more

So the food at AKA is always decent. The server was probably having an off day. She put in my wife's order wrong and when she double checked with me she put on of my rolls in wrong. Also...she was like "I'm going to discount the incorrect order $7, which is the price difference." Which kind of blew my mind considering you messed up the order so you should eat the cost. I donno. So far 3-5 stars, I go for the food not the service. Definitely nothing special but decent sushi like not winning awards, I mean if they do it's because they're like one of two sushi restaurants in Jackson, and the fancy place downtown is a health and safety hazard read more

Great service and very well prepared Sushimi. The decor is pleasant and appropriate for the food served. Also made a mean Martini.

Happy to find a sushi place in Jackson as we are new around here!! We went for lunch and had four sushi rolls. The spicy California, shrimp tempura, volcano II, and Vegas crunch! Vegas crunch was our fav!!! The crunch and the eel sauce combined with all the goodies tucked inside made it our top choice. The spicy California, although simple, was super satisfying! Volcano II was good but it may have been too fishy for us (the irony when ordering sushi). Our waitress was super friendly and attentive and we will be back! read more

Love this place, especially for lunch! Quick friendly service with delicious tasting food. Bento box is a great deal!

I had dinner with my neice, she told me to meet her at AKA Sushi in Jackson, Mi. It exceeded my expectations! Our waiter, Noel, was lovely. The decor is minimal, everything is white with accents, gave me a nice feeling. I had the Tuna and avocado roll and a giant scallop nigori, the scallop is like eating a cloud, I considered it my dessert . I was surprised they actually had the sea scallop, most places give you bay scallops, that's 2 totally different textures and tastes. My neice ordered the Salmon & Avocado roll. She was very happy. They do have specialty rolls, noodle dishes and entrees. I will definitely return to AKA Sushi when I'm in the area. read more

EXTREMELY DISAPPOINTED. To say the least, I have been here a few times for lunch. Last night was our first AND last time for dinner! We always take out as we live close by, but the food for take out last night was absolutely horrible! Every item was either cold or very old and stale, as if the food had been sitting around for the whole day! Very small portions left us still hungry, $95 worth of junk! I called to complain and all the manager said was we're very busy! Sadly, AKA is no longer the good restaurant it used to be!! I'm going to stick to SAKURA sushi from now on , their food and quality is always consistent and much less expensive prices! read more

91.00 for cold flavorless food. Im very upset and don't want to ever go back. We only live a few miles away and the food was refrigerator cold. The beef asparagus rolls were shoe leather jerky, the noodles were just flavorless cold ramen. The dumplings all had ice cold centers the food was very lousy we are very upset. We got ripped off at a $91 from this place the food was absolute garbage!! read more

Overall the food here is terrible. Surprised the reviews are as good as they are. We got two rolls, Vegas crunch and tiger and both of which were extremely mushy. The tiger had spicy tuna, topped with salmon and it was so fishy. We've been twice now and feel like after two attempts we can give an honest review. The edamame was good if that helps. read more

The food was good, miso ramen had an interesting flavor but delicious. Seaweed salad was nicely flavored. Edamame portion size was sufficient, however, providing a salt grinder rather than a shaker would have added the finishing touch that it was lacking. Los Vegas 2 roll was different but delicious! The wait was supposed to be an hour, but took an hour and 1/2. Once we finally got in, I figured out that the slowness is due to them COViD spacing tables, as well as slow wait staff. There were some tables which sat for a very long time before being cleaned. The rest of the city has opened up... time to get on the ball Aka! Our server was friendly but very slow to return to bring back basic things we asked for ie: spoon, salt etc... I would probably come back for the Vegas roll but definitely wouldn't wait for an hour n half to get in. read more

I am not the right person to analyze this business, as an event in Ann Arbor had a great Sushi Reputation. I sat with 10 young people who were thrilled by the beautiful California rolls and treats. I saw a small bowl of one of my favorite foods, Guacamole!! I scooped it on my plate, took a big spoon of it, only to find, it was extremely Hot, and I have some digestive problems with hot and spicy foods! It was actually Wasabi! I ran to the bathroom, just in time to throw up. My face was beet red! I came back to the table, to find all of the College students laughing! I wasn't amused. They thought it was so funny, they were rolling in their seats! Later, months went buy and I realized the funny part of my experience, and how unique the food was all wrapped up in rice, or other attractive food items, that looked adorable. The food ambiance, atmosphere in these establishments were attractive and adorable! read more

Best place in Jackson for Sushi hands down. Kinda pricey but it's the best place in Jackson in my honest opinion.

Overall this is a solid stop for sushi. The place is fair sized for dinning in or just to grab take out. The staff was prompt and friendly. The menu has plenty to choose from when it come to their sushi rolls. The place is clean overall and their is a view for you to watch them make your sushi. Timing seemed a bit slow but the food was great. We will be back again. read more

I've been to aka, many times over the years. Over the last couple years the quality of food has declined. This is last time I eat here, and that makes me sad because at one time it was very good sushi. read more

Yum yum. I absolutely love this place. The food is SO GOOD . I usually opt for pick up but the dining in is fun and it's clean with happy staff that smile and make you feel good about eating there. They are one of very few places in Jackson that ALWAYS gets my take out/delivery order perfect with utensils AND chopsticks even napkins! They never forget à thing. Thank you AKA! I am definitely a fan! 5 stars. read more

Great food and service. Place have a great ambiance and variety of menu. Best sushi in town!

10 out of 10 recommend. This might have been the best sushi I've ever had. To be fair though, I'm new to the sushi scene. I'm by no means a sushi expert, so I don't have many places to compare it to lol. My friend who eats sushi all of the time recommended this place to me and I know why. I walked in to place my to go order. I knew I wanted to try my friend's favorite roll, which is the Crunch Vegas, but I wanted another roll, I just didn't know what one. I'm so glad I walked in! The employees up front were seriously so good to me. It was a guy and 2 girls. I told them I was newer to sushi and wondered if they had any suggestions of could help me. They didn't get annoyed with me, they didn't roll their eyes or deep sigh, they didn't even act like they were too busy, (which they could've easily done since it was an hour til closing). They smiled and they asked me what I like and don't like and narrowed it down for me! Their customer service alone had me convinced this place is worth coming to. Crunch Vegas: so so good! I can see why it's my friend's favorite. Maki 7: my new favorite sushi roll. Ever. I literally want to go get some right now just thinking about it lol. Final takeaway: whether you eat sushi religiously or are brand new to it, this is the place to go. The 2 rolls and a soft drink came out to about $25. The only thing I'll do differently next time I go is I won't get root beer lol. Not a fan of their root beer for whatever reason. Definitely wish they had Pepsi products, but I can just get a Jack & coke next time haha. read more

Yes food is great including both sushi rolls and non sushi, my family tried several of the tempura rolls including shrimp, Philadelphia, and spicy tuna. They raved about them and thoroughly enjoyed their dinner very much. So much so they went back a day later to eat there again. I tried the chicken teriyaki and it was okay the first time, much juicier the second time. Although if you're not a fan of garlic or pepper, be sure to omit when ordering. Overall, the service and food was good both when we ate at the restaurant and take out as well. I would highly recommend l! read more

We just moved here from Washington State and didn't know where to go for sushi. I prefer soy wrap over seaweed wrap but they have both so my husband was happy too. The food was excellent and the service was amazing. Everyone worked together and looked like they enjoyed working together. I had the crunch munch and it was delicious. I highly recommend. read more

I have been a customer of AKA for over two years when I am in Jackson on business. I frequently DoorDash, and occasionally dine in. Tonight was my second evening dining in. Earlier in the week, late lunch was superb. Tonight was a different story. My nigiri was served with a piece that had a fruit fly spread eagle on top. Additionally, I battled fruit flies to protect my dinner and sake from their attack. Ewwwe. I called it to my servers attention and all she offered was to remake it. At meals end, no apologies and no adjustment even when I commented on this being the first time I encountered the fly problem and that I was disappointed. Pretty poor customer service. I will hesitant to return, despite this being the only decent sushi for miles. read more

Went here last night and it did not disappoint. The interior is nice and modern looking. Staff was very friendly and were attentive. We got the Beef Curry Rice, the Crunch Munch Roll, and the Jumbo Spider Roll. Everything came out quickly and was delicious! The sushi was very enjoyable.

We have been AKA fans since it opened in Jackson. There is no better or fresher sushi anywhere, and I mean anywhere. We have been regular sushi eaters for years, including my 9 year old twins, who have picked AKA for their birthday dinner the last two years. Thanks for a great dinner experience in an unexpected spot! read more

Second time back to this nice, mellow sushi spot. Taco salad is trusted and wonderful compared to many places I've previously ordered from. The sushi was consistently fresh and flavorful! Though, I ordered the Diablo and was not a fan of the torching addition to the roll. I would have opted out if I payed more attention to the description because it make the whole roll taste like butane to me. Others may not feel this way but I was sensitive to it. The service was great as well. read more
