This was the best hibachi I have ever had . Great flavor . Great service . I will definitely be back !

Had the chicken teriyaki bento box - $17. Quality was ok, not great, not bad. Server was depressing. Her monotone voice almost seemed bothered that she had to serve us. The food was ok but not good enough to compensate for the subpar service. read more

Great food for a good price. I usually come for the bento boxes, the salmon box is very good, although sometimes is better that others. The service is good and the place is clean, I have never been here on a crowdy day so I wouldn't know what to expect. I don't like the miso soup here but the beef soup make it up for it. read more

I have NEVER been treated more rudely than my wife and I were today. We asked for extra extra lemons from the waitress and she brings us 2 tiny mini slices. We politely asked for more and the next thing that happened was a cook, or perhaps manager comes out and say loudly and rudely "YOU GET FREE WATER AND LEMONS ALREADY AND I CHARGE YOU FOR LEMONS".... WTF! You can't imagine the astonished look we got from other patrons.... we won't be back. read more

Best shaggy dog roll ever!! Been going here for 3 years now and no other sushi restaurant compares. Probably have been here over 100 times and miss it so much when I go to college, they have the best service too! read more

Good sushi, good service, decent prices, and overall just a very good place to eat. If you live in the Spring/Klein area there's no reason to go to Benihana's or Shogun ever again. read more

The food is Great and the workers are fantastic. My favorite is Jessica, Sam, Yao...Tito...Tony...Ronnie...The old mexican guy that looks like how I imagine Jeremy Renner will look like in 30 more years!As a frequent patron of this fine establishment, I can see why some folks are a little standoff-ish when it comes to Tye ( The owner ). He's not the friendliest guy to meet, but he runs a tight and effective ship. I can't tell you how many times people go into the restaurant and complain about meals...AFTER THEY FINISH ALL OF THEIR FOOD... If I were a business owner, this would set me off. Tye is a business man and if he doesn't like you, he'll tell you to leave. The food is pretty great. read more

I only put a star because I had to. I ordered the orange beef, chef BURNT the chills to the point that the dish tasted burnt. I told the waitress (very nice lady) about it. She brought the manager/owner me over he said he will not make me a new one but he will take it off my tab the guy was a complete ass read more

Food was o so yummy... Our server was great and welcoming. I will be a return customer haha... I got the hibachi chicken with shrimp lunch with akachi sauce. read more

This has become one of our favorite places for family dinners. The staff is so kind and the food is fabulous. It is always clean, and the atmosphere is calm and friendly. (They also go out of their way when we mention any food allergies. ) Highly recommend this fabulous restaurant! read more

First time and I'll give them high rating. My adult kids have been here multiple times for the rolls and tuna sushi. They also had the hibachi and the cook was pretty entertaining with the grand kids. My wife and I will certainly come back again! read more

Horrible food and not good service. No offense but I have never seen Spanish sushi chefs. Just not fresh at all. Yuck!

I visited this place twice in one week. Very good service and food. Love the atmosphere.

Best hibachi I've ever had! Sushi was phenomenal. I ordered the shaggy roll and it was so tasty. Had the hibachi chicken, shrimp and steak. All three, along with the fried rice, were perfect. Somehow, I had room for dessert in the end and ordered the red bean ice cream. Again, delicious! I had no complaints about the service. I will DEFINITELY be back again. read more

Firecracker roll is a must have. Hibachi is great filet mignon and scallops I highly recommend. I prefer the flavor and quality here to Benihana anyday. read more

Such a great restaurant, staff is always friendly and food is yummy. They have hibachi tables and regular dinning. The food is always out quick-I recommend the atsu atsu roll, samurai roll, & hot sour soup. Everything is good you won't be disappointed with fairly good prices too. read more

Just had the worst experience ever at this restaurant off louetta & stuebner airline. Sat down to eat dinner with my co-worker. Ordered a few appetizers but the calamari wasn't good so I sent it back. The owner/manager came out, snatched the menu from the table and began yelling saying he is going to make sure we like what we order next because we are the only people sending food back to the kitchen. Now I've been to this restaurant a few times before and I've never had any problems. I couldn't help but look around and see that we were the only black people there. Call it what you want but I felt this was a racial attack. Guess he thought we were gonna eat a bite of everything and send it back . read more

Get the shaggy dog and filet mignon fried rice (best bang for your buck) and it's delicious!!

Headed to this restaurant for a Galentine Happy Hour on February 14th at 4:30. When I was seated, I asked the hostess for a happy hour menu. She said they don't do Happy Hour on holidays. I asked to see the manager (based on Dawn's review I am guessing it was the owner Ty). Before he came, one of the other ladies arrived. We were thinking of staying even without HH because I really like their drinks and food.When the manager came, he did not say hello or ask what we needed. He started yelling at us that they never have happy hour on Valentines and pointed out the "crowd" in the dining room (2 tables -one family and a group of teenage girls) which I am not sure what he was trying to tell me. (Maybe no HH was why there was no one there.) I mentioned the website had no notice that there was no HH (http://www.akaihiouston.com/index.html), he said they had no website. When I said we were leaving he started screaming at us to get out and followed us yelling to the door. This is not the first time he has yelled at me. We had a group go several years ago (happy hour)and he yelled at us that we all had to order at one time and one time only. We were ordering extra drinks and appetizers!! I don't care how good the food is, I will never go in that place again. read more

I've been coming here for some time. But recently the portions have become so small that I recommend trying another spot.

Pretty good Hibachi. Clean. Very friendly staff. I am not a sushi person so I can't be really objective.

My sister and I love to eat here. But when We came to dine-in on Tuesday my sister ordered something she didn't like. I tried it myself and I didn't like it either. I told our waitress that we wanted something else and to take it off the bill. She said she's not able to handle that and left to get the owner/manager. He came to the table and immediately started shaking his head. He said he will take it off the bill but that we ate some of it and he started to complain and get upset. I still said thank you and I appreciate you taking this off the bill. He snatched the plate off the table threw his hand in the air and said for us not to come back. I could also hear him yelling at his staff in the back. I have no idea why he treat his customers so ugly over something very minor. This manager/owner treats his employees and customers so disgusting and I will not ever come back here . Good luck with your business. read more

For a first time coming here it was great. Great and very helpful waiter service wise and Q/A for sushi beginners. Good place to come for sushi. They don't have a giant menu for sushi but it does the job. You would have to know what's in every roll bc they do not list what it contains which could get annoying having to ask which they all contain. But overall great food and great spot! read more

I love sushi and was really looking forward to getting some.. unfortunately this sushi was very plain and by far the worst quality of sushi I have ever had. Don't waste your money.. read more

I really enjoy finding a relaxed but cool place to meet up with my girls and have good food and drinks and Akaihi Restaurant fits the bill! This restaurant has so much more quality and charm then meets the eye! Don't let the fact that it's in a strip center deter you! Their happy hour is quite incredible with very affordable saki and cocktails. The calamari was crispy and delicious and my friends and I gobbled it up! I love their inventive sushi menu! Of course they have rookie sushi options like California roll, and shaggy dog but they also have a badass menu of specialty rolls like the Samurai and volcano rolls! The volcano roll is geared toward local foodies as it's main ingredient is the ever popular crawfish! I had 3 drinks, an app and a specialty roll but my bill was only $25!!! Next time I'm meeting friends in Spring I will definitely drag them here! read more

My favorite local restaurant hands down! The food is excellent, and the staff is top notch! Thank you for serving our community!

I had the Hibachi Filet Mignon and Shrimp which was a special. The meat was very good, the veggies were a little salty but otherwise everything was really good. read more

Lunch is so cheap. Very good all the time. Would have been 5 stars but i dont care for fried veggis. Just ask for steamed bento box is 9 bucks and great for lunch. Kids love the saltwater fish tank. Staff very nice and sushi always fresh and wonderful. I eat here every sunday when possible. read more

We visited this restaurant early last Saturday evening. It was almost a full house, but we were seated within ten minutes. The waiter was friendly and quickly got our water and drink order. He asked small or large Sake and we ordered large- but it looked more like a slim & tall, small. We went with mostly Unagi & Maguro Nigiri; and Louisiana, Shaggy Dog, Tiger Eye, and Red Dragon Roll. All were ok. I thought the salmon tasted a little bland. All in all not bad, but nothing jumped out and made either of us say yum. The service was good. If I was in the area I would eat here again and try some other things. read more

My wife loved the Red Dragon sushi roll (if you are into that). I had the Ninja Shrimp which I had to have partly because of the name and partly because it was labeled as "spicy" (which it wasn't very). Felt like I got a decent value for the money as the dinner was a combo (soup, small egg roll, one crab puff, grilled veggies, rice, and the spicy peanut shrimp). It also come with ice cream but I declined due to issues with milk products. Will definitely be back to sample the huge sushi menu! read more

Great atmosphere and exceptional customer service. I recommend the habachi grill with the steak. The chefs are quite entertaining and I have yet to get hit with a spinning knife. read more

The food and atmosphere is great, but the customer service from the manager / owner is deplorable.

Used to enjoy coming here because it is close and because of the happy hour. Tonight I had a horrible experience. We came into the restaurant and requested a booth. The teenaged hostess told me that only one booth was free and it was only for parties of 4 or more (We came in as 3). I explained that I had a hip injury and that it would be painful for me to sit in a hard, wooden chair. I also added that 2 more people would be joining us. The owner came and told us that the booth is reserved in case a family with a baby comes in. I tried to explain my reason for wanting to sit in a booth, but he did not want to hear. Finally, I admitted that I have a disability and needed the booth. The owner told me that I did not look disabled. I pointed out my disabled license plate. He told me that I thought I was special. We decided to leave because the owner was raising his voice and told them this. The hostess also spoke up and told us that she could care less (I think she meant couldn't care less). I was upset because we go there often, and I just cannot see us going back again when the owner of the restaurant does not care about making his customers comfortable. Their food is mediocre, but until tonight, the service had been acceptable. We went on to eat at a different Japanese restaurant that I knew was much better, but was further away. So this restaurant does not care about its customers and does not care about people with disabilities. read more

I've came on two occasions, both for lunch.. You can't beat their Saturday lunch specials here on this side of town... Nothing pretentious about this place, clean establishment, awesome service, and good food for a reasonable price.. read more

Went here on a Friday night around 7:30. It was kind of crowded, but there wasn't a wait at all. The service was prompt and once we ordered, the food came out right away. I can't speak for the hibachi because we only had sushi, but it smelled delicious and will definitely get that next time I go. The sushi rolls were all amazing - spicy salmon, mizu, firecracker, and some kind of shrimp crunch roll with a great flavor. Beautiful presentation, fresh taste, and delicious. The ambiance is casual, but not too laid back. I will definitely be back for takeout or dining in for sure :) read more

I love this place! It's affordable and the hibachi portions are great! I'll keep this review short and sweet. This place is delicious, affordable, has great service, and wonderful portion sizes. GO VISIT THEM! read more

We have probably been here a dozen times. It is 3 star on its best night. Last night was a 2 star experience. They were understaffed with hibachi chefs and so the wait for food was long. The server was a complete dunce. We asked for soy sauce and he took it from a couple across the table who had just received their food. After they spoke up he returned it to them. We ended up having to get up and get our own from the other side if the restaurant. Chriashi was the weakest example I have ever seen. Only reason to go here is to entertain the kids. read more

I went here with my family and I have to be honest, this was the worst sushi I have ever had. A few years ago my 10 year old daughter had a school project and selected to make sushi for her classmates. I have to say that hers was far superior. Don't waste your money or time with this restaurant. Worst sushi ever! read more

Food was your average hibachi. It was good, but to me it all tastes the same. The service on the other hand was far above average it was exceptional!!! The chef was hilarious and the waiters were polite and prompt! We will be back!!!! read more

Love the sushi! Spicy tuna, Firecracker, Red Dragon, and Unagi are my favorite! Went with the whole family and everyone loved it! I took a star off because the sushi was falling apart a bit, but otherwise amazing! :) read more
