Tried this place for the first time, and we loved it. We did the option to be able to choose from the whole menu and it was definitely worth it. The sushi was fresh and we loved all the ones we tried. One of my favorites was the crab taco, so good!if you have a big appetite, you have to try this place out.there was not anything we didn't like. Go treat yourself to a great dinner. We will be coming back no doubt.

Honestly. This was the best AYCE sushi I've had in Roseville. We thought the food was fresh, it has an excellent veriety of things on the menu, the Nigri my friend had he loved, I loved all the rolls I had! They were great on flavor, and quality! I enjoyed this meal more than some of the other sushi restaurants I've had recently in the area! They had lots of sides to order but the Chinese food sides were delicious and they had a Coconut shrimp, which was exactly like a Honey Walnut shrimp, but without the nuts! It made me so happy!!! The service was fast tbh despite the reviews, all the rolls came out quickly but were nice and fresh! I was skeptical at first of even trying it because of the 3 Star review on Yelp, as well as it being the Old islands building's negative reputation! But I definitely will be back! It was a great meal!!!

The food is AMAZING, but customer service...not so much. In the beginning, the hostess ignored the ladies in the front who were waiting and called to help those behind them. The waiters were so focused on getting orders that they didn't take time to allow their parties to order. The customer service dragged their rating down drastically.

My boyfriend and I came Wednesday evening to try it out. We got seated immediately, however the service was very slow. The servers took awhile longer to reach our table when we cleared the plates. The food was okay but I would not order the Uni nigiri again. (the Uni was very fishy in taste) The Salmon sashimi and the Louisiana roll was delicious. The booths are very old and should be replaced. While we sat at the booth, the leather seats were very uncomfortable to sit on.

I've seen a lot of places a come and go from this awkward corner of Taylor and E Roseville, and I'm glad Akame has landed. I've visited a few times in the past year for AYCE, and I've always had kind and timely service from the staff here. I typically order a bunch of hand rolls and 1-2 speciality rolls right away, and they have always come out so quickly - sometimes even before staff has had time to drop my hot tea off. They give me plenty of time to enjoy before returning to order more, and the swoop by so quickly to clear plates. The fish has always tasted fresh, no off smells, and the cuts are generous. I honestly can't get enough of the hand rolls, and have gone down the course A menu trying each one - I always come back to the tuna one, as it's a classic. Akame also does full 8 piece rolls, which is a lot so I don't always go for them. As a spice and tuna fan, the Akame and red flags are ones I'd return to. Haven't tried much of the prepared food, but I like to finish off my meal with miso soup, which you really can't go wrong. There's always tons of TVs playing movies and sports, and I appreciate that tables are spaced out so I'm never on top of the next diners.

I've been here several times now and can say it's worth it. There aren't many sushi buffets in sac that serve decent sushi. This is a bit of a drive for me since I live in Sacramento, but I'll go out of my way to come here if we're craving sushi. We usually go with option "B" for the all you can eat since I don't eat a lot of the additional items from option "C". I really like the hibachi steak, the cream cheese wontons and the Habachi Kama. All the sushi dishes are good also. I like the yellowtail. The habachi kama is a must try. For the sushi rolls, they are good, but I feel like the portion of rice is more than at other sushi places. It makes you full faster. So I limit my sushi roll orders. You also get your choice of different flavored and different types of ice cream. Service is great too. The servers checked in is and refilled our drinks. They also make great great recommendations. The restaurant itself is nice and can take large crowds. Parking lot is laid out weird, but there is decent parking. Akame and it's sushi are on my list of 2 decent all you can eat sushi. Both are similarly good to me.

I hope this place stays for the long run, because I've seen so many different names on the building that Akame is housed in. The restaurant is spacious when you walk in and we were seated right away. The staff were super attentive to our orders and the food came out pretty fast. The price point was not too expensive and the amount you receive is a good proportion. For the limited items, try them because you might as well since you are paying for it and with that said it was the first time I tried Uni and it wasn't bad at all. We utilized getting the sashimi an each piece was fresh and delicious. I would suggest a thinner cut on the sashimi next time but overall the food was good and we didn't feel stuffed after spending an hour ordering rounds after rounds. This is our go to spot now for AYCE sushi. Update: the Limited items for the Uni is one piece per person, when i went it was 2 pieces per person

Cups and plates did not appear clean.

Maybe 3.5 stars. We drive by this location multiple times in a week and have talked about stopping by to check it out. We had been to the previous establishment that was at this location, Maneki, but weren't too impressed by it. Decided to stop by on a weekday, to avoid any potential weekend crowds. When we first entered, we noticed they had kept the Maneki cat artwork on the wall that the previous establishment had displayed. Seemed fitting, since it was a Japanese restaurant. No one was at the host stand so we stood around awkwardly while wondering if we were supposed to seat ourselves or what. No friendly call-out from the sushi chefs that we're used to at other locations either. Finally a server who was standing at a table noticed us and walked over to us slowly. No apology for the delay, no friendly greeting, nothing, just a question of how many. Walked us to a roomy booth, which looked promising until I realized it smelled like a wet mildewy rag must have been used to wipe the table. Tried to find a sanitizing wipe to clean the table again, to get rid of the smell. Ice water was dropped off at our table in cups that did not look very clean. The plates did not seem very clean either. I stopped by the restroom and while walking back to the table was a little concerned about the cleanliness of the restaurant. I don't know what it was, maybe something I noticed subconsciously that made me feel like they don't put a lot of emphasis in deep cleaning. The sound of the servers' Crocs-type shoes keep catching my attention and my gaze going to the floor, noticing discarded chopstick wrappers. Menu was vast. Definitely a good place to go if you like variety. Price didn't seem bad. Taste was just ok. Felt like they add salt or something to their sushi rice, which was odd. Either use plain sushi rice or add the vinegar mix. But not salt. Unless they're trying to sell customers more drinks? It wasn't bad, I guess, for an AYCE sushi place but I think I prefer the taste and feel at other establishments like Its Sushi or even just a Japanese restaurant where you pay for each item. But I'm glad we got to try it and check it off our list.

Came here for dinner on Friday night around 7pm. The restaurant itself is super spacious with a nice open layout, and you can see the sushi chefs working right in the middle which was cool. However, when we first walked in, there wasn't anyone at the host stand to greet us. The chefs noticed us but didn't say anything, so we ended up waiting a few minutes until a server came over to seat us. Once seated, you scan the QR code for the menu. They offer three different AYCE options, and we chose Course C ($46.99). The selection is pretty impressive that includes appetizers, soups, stir fry, sushi rolls, hand rolls, nigiri, sashimi, and even desserts like ice cream. They also hand you a separate drinks menu with milk tea, Thai tea, and other options (those aren't included in AYCE). I did like that they give you a pitcher of water in a hydro flask style container to keep it cold! Service wise, it could've been better. Our server wasn't very attentive and we had to wave her down a few times just to order another round. The food itself, though, was good. Fresh and flavorful! My favorite was definitely the pepper fin salad, it had the perfect balance of spice and citrus. Overall, not a bad spot for the price with plenty of options to choose from. Just wish the service matched the quality of the food.

Went here on a brunch our Sunday. There was just one to two customers other than us. I was satisfied my Japanese cravings. One person might need a bento box order plus other orders to make yourself full. In that case dollar sign gets higher because you need to order more food than just one order.But, otherwise, everything is appetizing. Staff was friendly and kept on checking on us.clean restroom. Moderate noise overall.

Nigiri - salmon, yellowtail, octopus, escolar, garlic salmon

I came to Akame Sushi in Roseville for AYCE sushi and had a pretty good experience. We came for dinner on a Monday and there was no wait for a table. The front door is oddly located, all the way around on the other side from the parking lot. There are 3 options of AYCE to choose from. The first, A, is $27.99 and includes rolls, hand rolls, and appetizers. The second tier, B, includes nigiri and is $36.99. The top tier, C, includes sashimi and is $46.99. We opted for option B. We tried the salmon, yellowtail, octopus, walu, garlic salmon, and garlic yellowtail. I liked all of the fish, but the salmon and yellowtail best. The fish was fresh and delicious. The garlic versions were really good too. The hamachi kama was really good. The grilled oysters were okay. I enjoyed the soft shell crab and sesame balls. I tried some of the udon, which was good. The ice cream desserts were just so so. The salmon tacos (salmon kingdom) were so good! Salmon, rice, avocado, and ikura on crispy nori. I really enjoyed that one. Our server was very nice and came to take orders every so often. She forgot to bring one or two items, but we were full by the end. The restaurant was cool and had large booths to dine in. Akame is great for all you can eat sushi.

Came here for AYCE on a weekday and was surprised how busy it got for a Monday! Our server was super helpful, bummed that I didn't catch his name to give him credit! We had Course B so that we could try the tacos and nigiri. We pretty much ordered everything we wanted in the first round so we didn't need much afterward except for a couple things! The salmon lava roll was cute and shaped like a heart but I wasn't a fan of the spicy salmon texture. The lemon salmon roll was a little underwhelming, needed way more lemon. The Mr. Krabs was our favorite of the specialty rolls because of the torched salmon and overall it had the most flavor. Overall appreciated that these specialty rolls didn't have too much rice. The nigiri was all pretty decent but wish they would include pickled wasabi in their AYCE price!! The best nigiri were actually the garlic ones, again they had the most flavor. I enjoyed the tacos the most - the Salmon Kingdom slightly more than the Salmon Lover Taco. The texture from the crispy nori was the best part! Loved my ube mochi to end the meal! Overall it wasn't a bad experience but also wasn't the best AYCE either, so the 3 stars reflects an average experience. There are so many AYCE sushi places now in Sacramento so any new ones are going to have to do something to stand out in order for me to want to come back!

U see the taco.

We got seated right away. A waiter came by and took our order right away too. We did get our food, but it came out one by one, and the drinks we ordered, like hot tea and the extra items we requested, took a while. No one really checked on us to see if we needed anything else. A lot of the time, I had to wave someone down. It just so happened that when a waiter was serving food to a table nearby, that was the only time I could get someone's attention to ask for service. We got the Blue All-You-Can-Eat option. I ordered quite a few raw specialty rolls, and some of them had good flavor. The taco was good too. This was my first time here, and I thought their portions would be small, but they were actually big. They don't limit how much you can order, which is nice. I'm not sure if they offer half rolls, but I would definitely do that. The miso soup comes in a bigger cup, not the usual small one, so if you're coming with a partner, you can just get one and share. I'm not sure if I would come back. I'd rather go to Shabu Hot Pot in Elk Grove to get my sashimi or sushi fix along with hot pot. The service here was just lacking, and it sounds like other people on here are complaining about the same thing.

So much better than delta shores location! The nigiri was BOMB! Yuzu yellowtail, super white tuna,…read more& paprika seared salmon were all so good! Also tried their mushroom bomb (it was more crab meat than mushroom), shrimp lollipops (worth it), & yellowtail hand roll. Service is super quick and every server was so kind and attentive to refills! We would order and not even 5 min later our food arrived. It's smaller than delta shores but so much better overall!

4.5 STARS its sushi…read moreis very popular, so the wait can be long during peak times - around 90 minutes to 2 hours. there are three options for ayce, with different dishes included in each option. my boyfriend and i like course B because we think it's the best value, and it includes all of the nigiri, which is mostly what we like to order. we don't think course C includes enough additional items to be worth the increase in price. service is friendly, and we're always checked on often! they offered a wide selection of appetizers and hot dishes. the seafood dynamite included baby scallops and mushrooms in a mayo and sweet eel sauce mixture. i thought it was a little too heavy and wish it included other seafood besides scallops. the tako wasabi was one of the best versions of this dish i've tried, and i'm usually not a huge fan of this dish! the wasabi wasn't too strong, and the sesame seeds added such a nice flavor and texture. the sesame flavor complemented the wasabi and made it easier to eat. the monkey brain was a fried crab mix and mushrooms with spicy mayo and eel sauce. the portion was pretty big, so it was filling and heavy. the baked green mussels were very yummy! the white sauce gave it a creaminess and sweetness, and it came out super hot. the yellowtail collar was very juicy! it came with a slightly sweet soy-based sauce, and it was overall a light app. the spicy garlic edamame had a great garlicky flavor with a small kick. i liked that it came out hot, and it was a good portion! the sauce pooled at the bottom, and it was very oily, although the edamame at the bottom also had more flavor. i enjoyed the coconut flakes in the batter for the coconut shrimp tempura, which provided most of the flavor. the sauce was the same as the one served with the soft shell crab. the corn cheese was slightly sweet and cheesy, which i liked. the cheese was a little too liquidy but otherwise solid. the quality of the soft shell crab varied between different visits. i wasn't a fan of the chewy shell when it came out lukewarm, but when it came out fresh and hot, the texture was much better - crunchy and easy to eat. overall, it was seasoned well, and the lemon added freshness. the sauce was very light and thin, so i couldn't place the exact flavor. there were lots of options for sushi rolls, and they allowed half-size rolls, except for baked or 6-pc rolls. the lemon x salmon roll was one of my favorites! the lemon was thinly sliced, and the salmon was soft. it was very fresh and light. the washington roll was similar to the lemon x salmon roll in terms of brightness from the ponzu. the salmon was so soft, and there was salmon on top and inside of the roll, which i loved. it was also one of my favorite rolls, maybe more so than the lemon x salmon. the sauce on the henry roll was a little too much for me, but the lemon helped cut through it a bit. it had the typical combo of spicy mayo and eel sauce. the shrimp tempura was so crunchy! the sexy bomb roll was a regular shrimp tempura roll topped with salmon, spicy mayo, and eel sauce, but with the addition of cream cheese. again, the shrimp was crunchy, but the cream cheese was too overwhelming for me. the flavor was otherwise standard. the something wrong roll included shrimp tempura and spicy seafood mixes, including spicy soft shell crab, spicy tuna, and spicy crab mix, topped with more seafood. i liked the idea of the roll, but together, the spicy and tangy flavors were overwhelming. since it had so many components, it was also very filling! the nigiri was as good as ayce nigiri gets! we tried the tuna, garlic tuna, cajun tuna, super white tuna, salmon, xxx salmon, cajun salmon, smoked salmon, garlic salmon, salmon belly, paprika seared salmon, yuzu yellowtail, squid, spicy octopus, freshwater eel, and mayo scallop. the fish was soft and didn't taste too fishy. the fish to rice ratio was great! there was a tiny amount of rice for each nigiri, so we didn't get full on just rice. i wasn't a fan of the xxx nigiri, which came with a dollop of spicy sauce and thickly sliced jalapeno on top. i liked the seared flavor of the cajun tuna and cajun salmon, and all of the regular fish were good too. for ~$40 per person, the menu is very extensive, and we feel like it's really worth it! they offer a wide variety of appetizers and lots of great options for nigiri and rolls. we also appreciate the portion size of the dishes, which allows us to try more menu items. although a lot of the menu is tasty, the nigiri makes the price worth it alone, and we will definitely come back to its sushi whenever we're in the area!

I've been to a few of their other establishments years ago but it was my first time in the Roseville location. As expected around 4PM, there were quite a bit of patrons in line.

The establishment itself was fairly large and fit quite a bit of people - but at this time of day it was definitely packed. I ordered the Incredible roll. Yep, lives up to it's name.

For the price, I expected much better food quality and portions. On top of that, our drinks weren't refilled, and the service overall felt unfriendly and inattentive. The lack of hospitality made the entire dining experience even more disappointing. Given the restaurant's prices and reputation, I expected much better food and customer service. Unfortunately, this experience fell far below my expectations, and I will not be returning to this location.

If you're looking for seriously top-tier sushi in Placer County, this is it. We've had sushi all…read moreover the area and the sashimi here is in a league of its own. The most "popular" chain doesn't even touch it. Fresh, beautifully prepared, and just so good. But, honestly? The food is only a part of the reason we keep coming back, the service is what drives it home. We got to see Tae tonight (and I say that like it's a privilege, because it is). Whether she's our actual server or just making sure our meal gets to us in a timely fashion, she is a phenomenal human, truly. The best. We love talking to her, picking her brain about the menu, and simply just being around her. She knows exactly what the jackpot menu items are and somehow has a gift for putting together a meal that feels completely fit for royalty. My advice? Live a little, you deserve this.

Part of me didn't want to write this review because I didn't want this place to get even more busy…read more But this place is the best sushi you will get in Sacramento/Placer county! I, honestly, think the sushi and sashimi are better than Kru. The fish is so tender, buttery, and will melt in your mouth. The appetizers and rolls are SUPER yummy, with good flavor combinations. And the sushi chefs, servers, and staff are friendly and professional. They really know their fish, and are happy to explain the different cuts to you. They treat their customers well, and as a result, it is obvious that they get a lot of regulars. The one down side is that they don't take reservations, and depending on the day, it can be a long wait to be seated. So, I recommend that you don't come starving. But they are good about taking down your phone number and calling you when a table is ready. When it is a long wait, we usually go to the brewery across the street to hang out, and that works well for us. The ambiance is casual, so if you are looking for a fancy dining experience, this might not be the place for you. But the food is first rate! I highly recommend!
