One of the most original Japanese restaurants in Hamburg…read more There are not many places like the Akari in this city. Minimalist interior, Japanese staff, Japanese guests, and very tasty Japanese food that is worth every cent. I had the seafood salat as a starter and a sushi and sashimi mix for my main. Super fresh fish, very tasty and nicely textured rice (which is really important for good sushi), and good service. I'll definitely come back for some Udong noodles and some grilled dishes.

The food was delicious for me (a noodle soup), though average for my friend (cooked vegetables). Appetizers and desert were awesome too. Overall I can't give 5 stars because of the service: the girls seemed to be busy with paperwork, I don't know if we were unlucky or if this is a regular thing. Still a very good addition to any foodie map. (it seems to be a good idea to make a reservation first - though there was no answer when we tried)

Thus, we shared a Shabu Shabu in a friendly space, sitting in a traditional Japanese way. Shabu Shabu is a fondue made of vegetables and beef. The price is high: 29 €, but the service is good because the waiters help us prepare and cook our food. There is also a Shabu Shabu menu for € 59 where you have different dishes such as chicken skewers, traditional soup, fresh fish and a dessert.

It's a small, quaint shop and has been owned by a very kind Japanese man since 1990; he doesn't speak much English but always gives me a smile when I'm there. There is also an English menu available. There's some non-sushi dishes hand written in German on a chalkboard on the wall. This includes a salmon miso soup which I enjoyed, although I like the sushi a bit more. It's pricy like most sushi places (you'll probably pay 10-15€ to eat), although the presentation is nice and it's of high quality ingredients. I could easily recommend this place if you're looking for sushi in Hamburg.

As soon as we were seated, the waitress served us a sample sushi piece as an amuse bouche. First time this has happened in a Japanese restaurant for me as I'm used to edamame, not a sushi roll! We tried the sushi roll and it was actually really good! I would like to know what roll it was so I could order that next time! For drinks, we just ordered jasmine tea and for our entree, we went with the Misaki mixed plate 2 which comprised of 2 special rolls (your choice) 2 nigiri pcs (your choice) about 8 pcs of sashimi, a tuna roll and 4 pcs of shrimp tempura. It's a pretty good deal for only 28 euros. There's also a 48 and a 98 euros mixed plate. The 98 euro sushi boat looked really good! Anyways, for our 2 special rolls we ordered the duck roll and the peperoni roll. For the nigiri pcs we ordered one sake and one hamachi. The mixed plate came out pretty quickly and we enjoyed everything! The sashimi pcs were really fresh. The duck roll was interesting. The duck pcs tasted like peking duck. The peperoni roll was good as well. Not sure why it was called peperoni, it looked like it had tempura asparagus in it topped with salmon? It was tasty though. After our entree, we had plenty of room for dessert and ordered one of each - the fried bananas w/ honey and the ice box which was vanilla ice cream with crepe and raspberry sauce. Both desserts were really excellent. The vanilla ice cream was actually a good addtion for the banana and honey dessert. All in all, we'd definitely recommend this place for their sushi! Everything was delicious and the service was great!

I feel bad writing this review because the server actually seemed like a nice individual. However…read moreat a restaurant of this quality there are certain standards that should be at least the bare minimum. We had a reservation at 8:30 pm and weren't seated until 8:40 after arriving 10 minutes early. There was only one host working and a line of 5 reservations waiting to be seated. One of these tables happened to get their starter before we had even been given a drink menu (they gave us food menus to start). It took another half an hour for us to get our drinks and put in our food orders. When that did happen, one of the appetizers we ordered was sold out. (I know this happens, but they included it on our bill at the end of the meal). When our entrees did come out, they brought the wrong entree for my girlfriend and she had to wait another 20 minutes for her food (sashimi). All told it was almost 3 hours from the time we were seated until we were able to pay the check. I'm sure some people would not mind not being rushed, but when this length is due to your table largely being ignored and continuous mistakes being made by the staff it is very frustrating. All we were offered was a "we are very sorry! This is not normal. Please give us another chance." I don't see this happening as our customer experience was so poor. The only reason for this being two stars is the food is actually good as well as the ambiance. And although that combination is a majority of the experience the service and professionalism was so poor I can't in good conscience recommend this establishment to anyone.

My meal was really tasty and tasted very authentic. The tofu was also very good! I also had the Thai tea which was delicious. The restaurant itself is really nicely decorated and the service was fast. We made a reservation to sit at one of the Thai Tables, even though there is a hole underneath to put your legs through so it isn't really a traditional "sit-on-the-floor" type of situation. The only complaint I have is that meal sizes are a bit too small for the price. I don't have the largest appetite in the world but I still left feeling not 100% full. But maybe that's just because my meal was good and I wanted more of it
