Had the luxury omikase. Every piece was amazing... All 21+ courses. We loved the ambiance, food, service and couldn't believe we had to tap out early. For this price and quality I have never seen more food. Would and will definitely return. read more

Tried this sushi restaurant for the first time and overall had a good experience. We did the luxury omakase, and the staff throughout the night were incredibly attentive, friendly, and made sure everything moved smoothly. One thing that stood out was how quickly the courses came out -- almost too quickly at times. It felt a little rushed and didn't really give enough time to fully enjoy or appreciate each piece before the next one arrived. At one point, we had 4-5 different things in front of us to eat. As for the sushi itself, some pieces were solid while others felt a bit average and not especially memorable. That said, for around a $100 omakase, I think the experience and quality were fair for the price point. You probably shouldn't expect ultra high-end, top-tier omakase quality at that range, but overall it was still enjoyable and worth trying at least once. read more

My hubby and I tried their lunch Omakase and it was absolutely delicious! The seared black cod was our favorite and we enjoyed it so much that towards the end of the meal (you get an "encore" 1 fav item to try again) we chose the seared black cod I highly recommend getting reservation ahead of time. Overall, prices are decent, credit cards are accepted, and there's parking available read more

Came here for dinner because I wanted to try the treasure box! The restaurant is very nicely decorated, and the main seating area is around the sushi bar. The treasure box is similar to a chirashi bowl, but with all of the ingredients cut into cubes. Overall, I enjoyed the dish, but I have to say that a lot of the cubed pieces were avocado. The uni shooters we ordered were also pretty good. It is not the best uni, but you get what you pay for with 2 shooters for just $18. The service here was excellent, the staff are very attentive and friendly. read more

Came here for the $105 luxury omakase and honestly, it's worth considering for the amount of food you get. We had 21 courses, which was a lot. I was completely stuffed by the end. The progression had a nice mix of appetizers, hot dishes, and nigiri, and the overall fish quality was solid. Everything tasted fresh for the most part, though the uni leaned a bit bitter compared to the rest. I was especially excited about the chawanmushi (one of my favorites), and while it was included, the portion felt a little small. I definitely would've loved more of that. One feature I really enjoyed was the encore round at the end, where you can order an extra piece of your favorite. Some selections have a small $5 upcharge. Such a fun touch. Dessert was matcha ice cream, but the matcha flavor didn't really come through for me. The ambiance was nice and clean, making for a comfortable dining experience overall. Definitely a filling and satisfying omakase option. read more

My friend chose this place and it was a good choice. Some sushi pieces were a bit on the fishy side for us, but overall, my experience and the food were wonderful. The service was great. The staff was respectful and polite. The place was cozy and clean and not too busy. We both got the Luxury Omakase. It came with 21 courses. We weren't planning on eating that much food, but when the waiter told us about it, YOLO. Our bill for two people was $272.52. It included the Luxury Omakase x 2, two Cokes, and a 20% tip. read more

My friend and I frequent Akafuji for their omakase, and their quality remains unmatched. Reservations for dining at their sushi bar are a must! You can probably grab them the same day if you have just a party of two, but will obviously want to call ahead if you're coming with a big group. We usually order their starting tier for omakase and it's just the right amount of food. My favorites in the past have been their ootoro nigiri, blackened miso cod nigiri, A5 wagyu nigiri, and ootoro rice bowl. In the past, I've ordered their soft shell crab appetizer, but found it on the oilier side, and thus didn't enjoy it as much. At the end of the omakase, they also offer an "encore" where you get to choose the course you liked the most and receive it free of charge. This is the only restaurant I've ever seen that does something so generous, so big ups to them on their hospitality! The staff are very friendly and parking is generally available right in front of the restaurant, despite the lot being shared with multiple other restaurants. It's a quiet and quaint spot, which is an introvert's dream. I will say that the sushi chefs don't interact with you much compared to other omakase experiences I've had, so that's something to keep in mind if you're looking for that kind of meal. All in all, I will be returning and sharing this spot with all of my friends and family for years to come! read more

We made a reservation for their Valentines Day Omakase Special and was seated promptly! The atmosphere was quiet and welcoming, and the server was very attentive in clearing our tables or refilling sides/waters. I wasn't sure what to expect for my first omakase but this was a delightful meal! Every bite was well thought out and expertly made on the spot by the chefs. Whether it was the perfect smoky sear or buttery texture, each course was delicious and paired amazingly. There was a hiccup in our orders for the encore dishes (the wrong courses were ordered) but John came by to sort it out and we were pleasantly surprised by how accommodating they were! read more

Wow. Found a new hidden gem! Food 5/5 Service 5/5 Ambiance 5/5 Store is clean, restroom clean and smell good, food and service is top notch. Price and value 5/5 I did the $105.00 omakase "luxury omakase" worth every dollar honestly. 16 courses; 20+ plates and bowls. I was in food heaven. Here is what I got today: Miso soup Salad Cucumber salad Yellowtail belly sashimi Oyster with caviar and abalone with intestine paste Monk fish liver *All courses are great and no dip required! None of the fishes taste too cold to the touch, smooth and full of natural flavors. Tuna sushi Japanese steamed egg (mushroom, mild to taste) Black cod sushi (fatty, buttery, torchy, melts in mouth ;best piece) Sea bream sushi A5 wagyu sushi (torched, fatty, full flavors) Dungeoness crab and bay crab Halibut sushi (bouncy, soft, velvet texture) Kanpachi sushi (Japanese amberjack; but more crunchy than the halibut; mild, clean flavors) Scallop sushi (unlike cooked scallop, flavor is mild and Gentle) Otoro sushi (super creamy and melts in the mouth feel and full of flavors of tuna; one of the best pieces) Uni half hand roll (super full creamy buttery flavor topped on rice and it is a perfect bite) Mixed tempura (kabocha squash, shosito pepper, shrimp, hand crafted, freshly fried; so good!) Blue crab hand roll (full of flavor; deep rich handrolp to end your meal) Encore sushi (pick of your choice!) I got Uni Fish soup!

This is not just "another" basic sushi restaurant. Come try!! read more

WOW what an amazing omakase experience. The outside of the restaurant looks unassuming and the plaza it is located in is a little eerie especially late at night but don't let that fool you. We opted for the omakase luxury menu- the quality of fish you get for the price is a steal! Each piece is thoughtfully prepared, seasoned perfectly and the chef goes at your pace (I'm a really slow eater compared to my partner and the rate at which my courses came out was adjusted accordingly). Service was great and the ambiance in the restaurant is a little bit small and cozy but there is still enough room between each party for an intimate experience. I also love the lighting which was perfect for taking photos of your omakase experience. I would happily go out of my way to dine here again. read more

My girlfriend and I were getting pedis nearby and had a craving for handrolls. We found this spot on Yelp bc her usual joint was closed on Monday. The restaurant is really well lit & has a nice ambiance. There wasn't many people on a Monday. While the server did forget a couple items we ordered (repeated twice but he's brand new so it's ok), the dishes we got were pretty tasty. Everything was very fresh and good, but we'd both say all the dishes lack something to make it truly special/hit the spot. I think if we could taste the truffle ponzu sauce more, it would add complexity to the flavors. Still a great meal. I did see how affordable the omakase was & would be willing to try it out if we're ever in the area again. read more

got the omakase and we found it being worth it for the price. every fish was cut well, and so fresh. it leans into the more traditional taste of omakase with its highlight on the freshness of the seafood. the lychee sorbet at the end was one of my favorite parts of the meal. read more

Booked this place because it was a good middle meet up between me and my friend in Orange County and they offered reservations! We showed up a little early and they quickly took us. We both ordered the premium omakase and loved it! So much food and the you could tell the fish was so fresh, we loved pretty much everything! I hate taking pictures during omakase so I only grabbed a few, but it was such a fun experience. Loved the vibes of the restaurant, small and intimate. Would absolutely come back! read more

I'd give this place 3 1/2 stars. The atmosphere was nice & the food was decent. They don't have too many tables so we sat at the sushi bar but that set up is not conducive to conversations for three people. They had tables outside but too many flies around & it was still a bit hot. One person in our party got the Omakase and said it was decent. I got rolls, damago by itself & chawan sushi. They gave me damage hand roll (so got the order wrong but didn't offer to take it back immediately so I just ate it as I didn't want to bother. Chawan mushi was just OK but wouldn't order it again here as I've had better. My husband had the "treasure box" & said it was pretty good. If we are in the area, we may go again but wouldn't go out of our way to go to this restaurant. Service was friendly. read more

Been enjoying Akafuji for years. Good ambience, good food. Recently tried their luxury Omakase and it was one of the best I've had at that price point ($105). The chef was attentive and threw in some extra tastings. The service is good, but not great in a way that adds to the value and enjoyment of the meal. Maybe not a drive-to destination in terms of wow factor, but if you live in the area, it's definitely worth a visit or two. read more

Truly so sad to be updating my review because akafuji used to be one of my favorite sushi spots with high quality fish and great service. When I visited for the first time in a few months tonight, I had such a bad experience that I was shocked. Firstly, they forgot 2 of the items I ordered and I sat there waiting for quite awhile. I let my server know I was still waiting on a few items and still nothing happened. Eventually I had to flag down another server and confirm that the orders actually went in. When I eventually got the 2 items I ordered one of them was a complete mess. It was a roll that I had ordered multiple times before here but it came out looking so awful and quite literally falling apart on the plate. I couldn't even pick up a piece of the roll with my chopsticks because it was splitting apart. I was shocked because I've never experienced that here and I had to ask the server to take a look at the state of the roll. They did take it back to the kitchen and have it remade but even the second time wasn't nearly as good as the quality I've experienced in previous visits. All that to say- I was very disappointed by the quality and service and am wondering if they've had an ownership change in recent months. Unfortunately I will likely not be returning since it truly seems like a completely different restaurant now. read more

We chose Akafuji for a team dinner with 11 people, and it was such a great decision. We had an amazing time together on the beautiful balcony--it had a great atmosphere, and they even turned on the heaters, so it was warm and comfortable the entire evening despite dining outdoors. The food was absolutely outstanding. Every dish was thoughtfully prepared and high quality. The bluefin tuna literally melted in our mouths, and the halibut sashimi, salmon, oysters, and uni were all incredibly fresh and delicious. One thing we really appreciated was the private space that comfortably fit a group of 10+ people. With every dish that came out, our team kept saying how impressed we were--it truly felt like one of those moments where you realize, this is what happiness feels like. Highly recommend Akafuji for group dinners, special occasions, and anyone who appreciates exceptional food and a great atmosphere. read more

If you're looking for great bang for your buck when it comes to omakase, Akafuji is the place to be. The premium omakase runs $105, while the regular omakase is about $80--but trust me, go for the premium. It comes with lobster tail, and every bite is worth it. One of the standout features? Their truffle ponzu. I put that on everything, and honestly, you should too. It adds an extra layer of umami that takes the meal to the next level. The service? Impeccable. The only downside? It's a long drive from DTLA, but once you're there, you'll forget all about the miles. Great service Incredible flavors & fresh ingredients Reservations available on Yelp Check out my photos--don't they look amazing? 10/10, would absolutely come again. Akafuji is great! read more

Had my Galentine's dinner here tonight and our experience was absolutely amazing! Love the seating arrangement and how we were all seated at the bar We all opted for the premium omakase which was 15 courses and 80$ per person It was more than enough food.. we got miso soup, chawanmushi, kake soba, salad, fried white fish and a bunch of fresh nigiri Every single piece of nigiri was absolutely amazing but we definitely had our favorites which were the A5 wagyu, hotate, Kanpachi, chu toro and uni. The chef really ATE... like he put his whole bussy into each sushi like we were clapping and mmmming after each and every bite like omg Service was really great too. The servers were extremely attentive and so nice! They took away all the empty plates and bowls very quickly and it made our experience so great I highly recommend to anyone looking for some great sushi because the omakase options are great and sooo worth!!

I ordered the premium omakase and was quite disappointed. The sushi flavors were completely monotonous and the other dishes did not elevate the course. I had expected more innovation and thought in the menu for such a highly-priced course. The highlight of the course was actually the lychee ice cream we were given for dessert. I wish there were more dishes that stuck with me, but unfortunately this course was overall forgetful and not worth the price. I will say that I was quite full after the meal. The service was also subpar. It seems like the restaurant forced two seats at the end of the bar. The couple sitting next to me got the slowest service and very limited view of the counter. They also didn't prepare enough truffle ponzu, and I was awkwardly asked to share my bottle with four people even though every other bottle was only shared between two. read more

I ordered the deluxe omakase and was very disappointed with the experience. The meal has a live oyster that had a broken shell, which was off-putting. The amaebi was served without the head, and I was told it was sold out--which i never had this experience from any japanese restruant. One of the dishes was a half-steamed, half-fried squid, which felt odd and poorly executed. The steamed egg (chawanmushi) was served in a large cup but was only about 20% filled, which felt misleading and careless. Unfortunately, the issues continued throughout the meal. Overall, I would honestly rather get sushi from Mitsuwa than return here. It's disappointing, and frankly a shame, to call this a Japanese sushi restaurant given the quality and lack of attention to detail. read more

This place doesn't mess around with its omakase. Its premium omakase, which is actually one of the less expensive omakase, was excellent. The quality of the fish was great, but what really impressed me was the portion. At most places I only got 9-10 pieces of sushi and related items, but this place gives you 16 pieces, plus miso soup, salad, chawanmushi (steamed egg custard), warm soba noodles, and a dessert. My wife and I felt somewhat full just half way through our course. Just when we thought we were done, more stuff started coming out. Just before our dessert, they offered us another sushi of our choice from its premium omakase list (items in white had no additional cost; green ones were $5 extra). So it actually ended up being 17 pieces plus all those other items mentioned above. Service was prompt and omakase items came out at a good pace. It will be hard for me to go somewhere else for omakase after trying this place. read more

The wife and I made a reservation here for our anniversary. The dining space was nice looking and had a good feel. I have been to Tokyo via my brother's wife being Japanese and they took me to an underground phenomenal sushi restaurant there. My wife is Taiwanese, so we are often on the quest for great food and exceptional sushi/sashimi. I will do my best to recall what we consumed based on what the sushi chef stated as he handed us each dish. We did the OMAKASE "luxury" dinners. TONIGHT's MENU: Bluefin tuna (from Spain) Oyster and abalone Yellowtail sashimi Seabream mackaral dungeonness crab fried battered shrimp with creamy smooth avocado underneath jumbo scallop neck toro uni fish soup shito/shrimp/pumpkin tempura pieces with dipping sauce toro hand roll deep fried shrimp seared black cod halibut amber jack mini piece of flan cake (what it tasted like and looked like) yuzu sorbet (awesome) My 4 winners of the night were as follows: #1 = neck TORO sushi #2 = toro hand roll #3 = seared black cod sushi #4 = amber jack sushi The ponzu truffle sauce was nice but I basically ate nearly everything as presented as you should with omakase. The STAFF provided excellent service, and the quality was EXCELLENT. Everything tasted super fresh and tasty with great presentation. The restaurant and restroom are clean and tidy. It's a hefty drive from us at over 28 miles but it would be worth the trek when we choose to indulge in stand-out sushi cuisine. read more

I sat at the sushi bar and had the omakase again last night. Ken served up the usual great nigiri sushi. I recommend getting any fish seared Great food and great service. I know a lot of restaurants are struggling to find help and sometimes it can seem like it a service issue. When a restaurant is short handed it's tough, but if you enjoy the restaurant cut them some slack. Aloha.... read more

(4.5) I've been wanting to try Omakase for a while, and this spot lived up to the hype based on the reviews. I made a reservation in advance and was seated within five minutes of arriving. The interior is modern and cozy, featuring a large central bar for seating and a few tables on the side. One thing I noticed was the atmosphere: lively yet peaceful. Great spot for you and your partner. I chose the premium luxury Omakase, which included 16 pieces of premium sushi, 4 pieces of premium sashimi, house salad and miso soup, monkfish liver tasting, scallop tasting, tempura, clam soup, oyster, Japanese egg custard, and ice cream. At $95, it was an incredible deal! The variety of exotic, high-quality fish really made it worth the price. Each dish was delicious in its own unique way. It was a fun experience tasting the different textures and sensations of each fish. Some of my favorite bites were the raw sweet shrimp, otoro, uni, and oyster. The otoro was divine--it melted in my mouth, leaving a rich, luscious, and oily texture from the fat. Absolutely sensational! They also had truffle ponzu soy sauce that you could drizzle on top, it's really good! A few things could have made the experience even better. At times, it was hard to hear the chef announce the name of the fish, so a printed list of the courses in order would have been helpful. There were a few fish I wished I knew more about. Also, some bites had a bit too much wasabi for my taste, causing that strong burning sensation through my nose. If you prefer less wasabi, it might be worth mentioning to the chef in advance. I really liked how the last piece of sushi they let you decide what you want. There were serval fish that had $5-$8 up charge due to its luxury. But, I chose sweet shrimp as my last bite and it was great. The dessert you have the option for lychee or yuzu icecream. The lychee really was the perfect ending. It also came with the moist Japanese egg bread that they make in house! Overall, this was an amazing value and a delicious Omakase experience! read more

Celebrated our yearly early Christmas dinner ritual. Bff and I visited a familiar sushi spot and splurged in some delectable dining experience. A hidden gem in La Habra, Akafuji is a medium, trendy, bar-style sushi spot, with a classy/casual ambiance. Missing in the picture is the blue crab handroll and 1 nigiri... went straight to my mouth :) We got the omakase special- 8 pieces of chef's choice nigiris. I got an extra octopus nigiri and black cod (TY!). No fishy taste, melts in your mouth, and rice was perfect. It comes with a salad, dessert, & miso soup so we just ordered an extra miso. We also got scallops and some sashimi, shishito peppers, Chilean seabass, & a large sake. My favorites are otoro, black cod, seabass, and the sponge cake dessert! No wait time, seated at the bar, multiple chefs are working happily, friendly staff, clean, reasonable amount of wait for food. Omakase can take a little more time but we splurged on other items as we waited. Akafuji has been generous to us last night giving us "on the house" extra 2 nigiris, another plate of their sponge cake dessert (fkn delicious!), and a 15% off Manager's special! Don't know what we did to deserve it but I told them we've been a big fan and complimented the sushi chef at every nigiri he served- because it's that good! If you're in the area, it's a must try! Highly recommended read more

Saw this place on Instagram so I had to try it out. And we were blown away. Surprised I had not heard of it before since it's been around for 6 years. Prob one of the best omakase I've had. First off, the service was superb! Our waiter noticed that my husband was eating the cucumber salad and he continued to bring more cucumber salad several times even when we didn't ask. It was great! The omakase prices are really amazing! I couldn't believe how full we were when we were done. Plus they gave a free encore price! The area is small though, mostly bar space but nice intimate situation. We live this place and will definitely be coming back for more! read more

Last weekend, my friend and I got to visit Akafuji to try out their Omakase menu for the first time ever and both of us left pretty satisfied with our experience! Food: 5/5 + Omakase Sashimi Special $80 The Omakase Sashimi special is an assorted selection of 15 sashimi pieces that the sushi chefs curate for diners to try. It also comes with appetizers such as miso soup, Chawanmushi (Japanese steam egg custard), salad, fried Amadai, and yuzu ice cream dessert. In all, this was an absolute steal for its menu price point. For our sashimi, all the pieces we were given were so fresh and delicious. However, my personal favorites were the seared scallop, the blue fin toro, and uni, all of which were creamy and absolutely melted in my mouth. To be honest, since I have been to Japan twice now and had the opportunity to try omakase there, I haven't been impressed by sushi I have had back in the States. (Usually, it's either the quality of fish or the extreme price points that I get disappointed by.) However, due to the quality, quantity, and price point of the meal provided at Akafuji, I felt brought back to the countertops of Tokyo again. Service: 5/5 Service here was impeccable. You could tell from the staff to the sushi chefs that everyone loved and put so much care to their job. It speaks so much to me as a diner when the waitresses are raving about their personal favorites in the restaurant. In addition, the chefs always made sure to provide background and introduce each part of the meal, which as a foodie, I deeply appreciated in order to keep track of my favorites for future visits. Although my friend and I made a prior reservation, the restaurant was not too crowded when we went. We went right at opening and were able to snag seats at the bar where we could see the sushi chefs make all their tasty creations for us to consume later. Furthermore, the ambience is elevated, with modern sleek white decor. There is high top seating around the sushi bar as well as individual tables that larger parties can sit at. There is also seating located outside as well. This spot is perfect for intimate get togethers or celebrating a special occasion with your loved ones. One thing of note the restaurant is located in a cramped parking lot so I would keep that in mind if you are coming with a larger party to potentially carpool. Even though we came early, we still ended up parking a bit further from the restaurant since the spots closest were already full. Overall, I highly recommend stopping by Akafuji. I definitely know that I would return here again! Food Review link: https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZT2cqHmYq/ read more

overall: 8.5/10 Insta reel: @rach.foodie food My first omakase experience! So grateful that there's an affordable omakase spot right here in oc. Akafuji in la habra serves premium & fresh omakase.They start you off with the house salad, miso soup, & chawanmushi. Then onto the 16 piece premium sushi. I appreciated that every piece was handmade carefully by the chefs. My favorite was the black cod and I love that they have a dropper for truffle ponzu. It really elevates the taste of the sushi and adds a little unique touch to it. And the a5 wagyu beef was heavenly. It was soo tender and just melts onto your tongue. Towards the end, they brought out a tempura set which was such a warm & savory palette cleanser after the sushi. And of course we always need a sweet treat after a good meal! (Yuzu Ice cream + egg bread) service Everyone here is so respectful and kind! They're always checking up on you and making sure the finished plates are cleared after each round. The chefs put a lot of care and effort into making each sushi a delicious experience. ambiance Came as soon as they opened on Friday at 11:30am. The seating is mainly bars because it's an omakase house. Interior was very clean and modern, however I do wish the music they played was a little more relaxed. I had a hard time hearing my brother when we were eating. read more
