First class service. The staff is very attentive, food was delicious and served quickly. Nice place to have lunch. Would recommend to anyone

This review is for a pick up order I placed tonight. I won't return. This is the first time I've ever felt hesitant about the raw fish I just ate, first piece I had was just a little off then I had a tuna nigiri to give it another shot, and it was SO extremely fishy. Furthermore, I had ordered a sushi + roll combo with a spicy tuna roll but I got a California roll instead. We get take out all the time and I ate this almost immediately after I picked up, so it's not a matter of the food sitting out for too long. read more

Best sushi I've had in a while. The salmon sashimi was perfect. Very kind front end service. I had my meal to go but the inside looked very clean and nicely decorated. read more

First time trying this place after searching nearby for some sushi. My boyfriend and I really enjoyed the food. It was delicious and the edamame was our favorite part. We already have plans to come again and try the Shocking Lobster and Gyoza. They do not sell fountain drinks but they have a big selection of drinks to choose from. Service was great and the host/cashier was attentive and nice. We ordered at the front then sat down to wait for the food and it was later brought to us. It was empty when we arrive but slowly picked up with people. There's plenty of room to sit and it's a cute little spot. I would recommend this place to anyone in the area. read more

Come on all the time for their lunch special. chicken teriyaki plate is great and filling. Great value and great service!

Restaurant is accessible from freeways, no issues finding parking on a Saturday night. Located just off Cherry street. Food was amazing! We ordered several rolls and nigiris, as well as some miso soups. We were satisfied with the amount of food as well as quality. Food came fast, we did not wait long despite being a party on the larger size (7 people). I highly recommend Akii Sushi! Staff were very friendly, space is clean, and prices are very affordable. The next time I'm in the area, I'd come back again. read more

Cool little sushi shop in a random little plaza right smack on Wardlow and cherry . I believe it's all other food places here in this small plaza so there is parking available to patrons. I have been here on 3 different occasions & have done both dine in & take out ! Usually a creature of habit so have got basically the same thing every time and it's been the crunch roll , gyozas, & miso soup & they smack every time. Service here is good , it's always the same lady and she's very nice. I've noticed they have lunch specials but have not come on during those times ! Plenty of room to dine in . Very nice and neat in there ! read more

Drove Past This Place Too Many Times, So My Husband And I Finally Decided To Give It A Try. The Place Is A Bit Small But Welcoming. I Don't Like The Fact That We Have To Order And Pay At The Front Before Being Seated. Been To A Different Sushi Place That Did The Same And Had A Horrible Experience But I'm So Happy That This Place Didn't Disappoint ! I Ordered The Angry Roll And Sunset Roll. I Love Spicy Sushi And Their Angry Roll Was The Spiciest Sushi I Have Ever Had. It's So Delicious ! The Sunset Roll Was Also Delicious And It Help Calm Down The Spiciness Going On In My Mouth LOL.... My Husband Ordered The Beef Teriyaki. He Said It Was A Bit Too Dry. He Won't Be Having That Again... I Would Defiantly Be Back Again But My Husband Would Have To Try Something Else On Their Menu read more

loved this spot!! It's a very intimate space tucked away off Cherry, but don't let that deter you. The service was so friendly and welcoming and the food was great. I came in with 7 friends and even though there's not a lot of seating inside, they helped accommodate our large party and got us seated right away. We ordered a lot of sushi, some rolls, and some starters (the tempura was great, and the chicken wings were actually SOO good and super juicy and tender) and the food came out pretty quickly too. The fish was really fresh and the proportions of fish to rice was perfect. The rice texture and flavor was really nice too. Would definitely recommend this spot if you're craving sushi in the area! read more

Came here with a group of 7 friends and we had a great experience! We got seated and received our food very quickly. We ordered a variety of rolls, sashimi, chicken wings, miso soup, and tempura. Everything was delicious and flavorful! The location is a little lowkey tucked away but I would def recommend this for lunch or dinner! Parking was easy since there is a lot in front of the restaurant as well. read more

Food was delicious and the food was served in a very timely manner. We ordered the Philadelphia roll with a teriyaki chicken plate. The plate was enough for two! Even though they may have had some AC problems I couldn't tell as they had two fans going to keep the room at a good temperature. read more

After waiting in a short line, the cashier explained the lunch specials and gave a nice warning about the heat on the angry roll - I almost changed my mind. The restaurant space is cozy and decorated with real plants, but wasn't crowded. I started with a delightfully stuffed fried jalapeño followed by the 6 piece garlic chicken wings - crispy, somewhat sweet, and well-seasoned. The angry roll was indeed spicy (not overwhelming) and delicious! Typically sushi can be too rich for me, but I was able to eat the entire roll without issue. The tuna portion was generous to the degree that it was enjoyable and filling. There was a strong selection of sake, beers, and soft drinks - I chose Sapporo. Other diners ordered several entrees that I'll have to try on another visit. read more

A hidden gem sit down sushi spot. Delicious salmon nigiri, albacore, and unagi. No frills, just good food at a very good price. We also got the (spicy) Korean fried chicken the variety veggie tempura and miso soup to end off the meal. Easy parking behind the main road during Saturday dinner hours. Overall a very pleasant experience 10/10 would recommend. read more

The food, service, and the dining space were AMAZING. I tried many of the rolls, chicken wings, tempura, and nigiri and everything was absolutely fire. The server, Ivy, was so friendly and the owner, Janney, was also the best. Definitely a must try in this area! read more

Akii Sushi - Unagi Sushi, Mix Tempura (6pc), Tuna Sashimi, Salmon Sashimi - Japanese Near Me - Long Beach, California

Location: This place is in a tiny busy center with other food places. Parking: They have parking, but during the lunch hour can be a bit hectic. Food: I ordered to go since it was my lunch hour, and I needed to head back. The order process was easy and fast. I ordered the salmon plate. It came with salad, gyoza, white rice, and California roll. The salmon wasn't anything special, and I will admit I'm very picky when it comes to salmon, so please keep that in mind. It was bland; it had no flavor whatsoever. The gyoza was okay, and the California roll was OK, too. I didn't try the salad. Service: The lady who took my order was pleasant and quickly took my order. However, once my order was packed and ready, I asked for hot sauce and was told it would be 25 cents. I didn't have it, so I told her never mind. She gave it to me anyway. Once I returned to my desk, I noticed the container with the hot sauce was half empty. (See picture) I mean, I get not giving utensils or sauces unless requested, but come on! If you are going to charge me, you better give me an entire container of what I'm PAYING you! This annoyed me for sure. I will try this place again, but it will be a while. read more

This was dinner tonight. 09/27/22. It was good! Party of 3. We ordered the following: Garlic chicken wings. They had a great crispness to it. The flavor wasn't saturated in if that makes sense. It's like they just put garlic on top of the wings. 3/5 Edemame. Could've used a little more salt. And no, there was no table salt and yes we could've asked for salt but we didn't. 4/5 Mix tempura. Shrimp, yam, broccoli, squash and a russet potato. Lol 4/5 California rolls 8 pcs x 2. They were Cali rolls. They satisfied my daughters craving. 5/5 Crunchy roll. The pieces were a little too big but they were good. 4/5 Lobster roll. Great presentation and it was good but a little overwhelming with the sauces - Mayo and eel sauce. 4/5 Overall, the fam and I were satisfied. The staff was very nice and polite. They offered complimentary rice balls that were really good! We will definitely be back but not anytime soon. I think we ordered too much tonight and are on sushi overload! read more

I noticed this place driving by. The restaurant is located in a small little shopping area. Very hard to see ! They're in a corner and honestly if you miss it you'll probably keep on driving. I am glad I came here though! Sushi was delicious! I had one , can't remember the name but it was fresh. I also noticed that they have a happy hour. I told my husband that we need to come and eat here. I recommend you try it! Prices are average and sushi is gr read more

This place has probably one of the best sushi rolls I've ever had (the other being quite far from me)! It's a good sign when every roll you order turns out to be super delicious. We went on a Saturday night and the place was pretty much empty, so I was surprised. It's also a bit small, but this seems like the kind of place where people go to on their lunch break, rather than a sit-down restaurant? You order by coming to the counter in the front, and then they bring it to you wherever you're seated. The lady at the counter was super kind, and she gave me and my boyfriend a free appetizer while we were waiting for our food. I forgot what it was, but it was so good! We ordered the Hawaiian, Tiger, Baked Salmon, and Hot Night rolls if I am remembering this correctly. The baked salmon roll was my favorite one! There was so much flavor in all of these rolls. It was a lot for the two of us so we had to take some to-go, and I was pleasantly surprised that the lady from the counter even put in our rolls in the to-go box for us! Most places I go to, you always do it yourself. So I thought the service here was amazing. I'll definitely come back. read more

This place was very meh. It seemed like there was only one worker and it took a while to be helped. I expected this place to be a restaurant but it's more quick service. also the food was very bland for the price. wouldn't go back, very underwhelming experience. read more

Horrible service. The old lady served people who got here after us while leaving us with no water or utensils. Had to ask for every little thing. Dirty tables as well. Sticky and gross. The lady didn't check on us once even though the other table and us were the ONLY ones in there. She was clearly treating the party that bought alcohol different. She checked on them and brought them water and condiments right away. read more

Service was friendly. We went there at opening so no one there. Mostly 4 top tables accommodating to requests. Kids had edamame udon avocado roll and gyoza good portions. Had the volcano roll would recommend. Easy plaza parking read more

On a hunt to try a new Sushi spot in LB, we found this hidden spot. Here was our experience Parking: Plaza parking was pretty small with room for about 10-12 cars. Seating: Inside seating and counter seating good for small groups or individuals. Feels: This is not your popular touristy area of Long Beach. It's moreover your casual blind spots of the city. It's a really small plaza with a few eateries. The spot itself is pretty small and intimate. It's decorated with Japanese Kimono pictures and a TV with the food. It's not a sushi bar but they do their best to provide that connection with the customers and services. Great for a quick grab-and-go or low-key spot. FOOD: Rainbow Roll (Recommend) Wonderful. A great classic roll with various fresh fish flavors and a reasonable serving. Garlic Chicken Wings Deelish! They said it was their most popular and I could see why, it was calmly breaded yet juicy. The fried garlic gave it a good kick. CUSTOMER SERVICE: Great! Warm welcomes and follow-ups throughout our time there. :) TL; DR OVERALL: 4.5 Stars. Super! Steady amount of food items, reasonable price, and good food. It's a small spot but they do their best to make it comfortable and a good hideaway from the touristy spots of Long Beach. Tips: * Not only sushi spot but Ramen as well (Must come back and try). read more

i love this restaurant. the poke is really good. our server itzel was so friendly and on top of it!

Hole in the wall sushi joint in a tiny plaza. Amazing quality fish and great customer service! Didn't expect that quality of service for a place where you order up front. I ordered the albacore delight and mixed tempura. The albacore delight was extremely good! Huge fan of spicy tuna and it was loaded with it. Mixed tempura was fried extremely well and crispy without it being burnt. Will definitely come back to try out their other rolls! Everything sounded too good. Would recommend this place to anyone looking for sushi in this area. read more

Food was good, service is terrible , asked for boxes for leftovers, lady says let's go and proceeds to hand pack the leftovers without being asked to with a gloved hand and ask why food wasn't finished, Ambiance just as bad, same song playing for half an hour with a glitch TV screen in corner. read more

New local love. Clean & cozy little spot between Jr Mex & Pita Pitaki on Cherry / Wardlow. Greeted and welcomed right when I entered for lunch and continuously provided attentive service through my visit. Now I notoriously love i Luv Sushi. They've had my heart since iLS first opened. However, Akii Sushi is a close competitor. Plus--the BEST part--no crazy busy crowds!!! read more
