The waitress said she was taking that off the receipt. They didn't have the sushi I wanted and was told that they really never had it because people just didn't order it. Okay, I opted for the California Roll. It was okay; nothing spectacular. The Hibachi Steak and Shrimp along with plain rice with a little soy (what was supposed to have been fried rice) was horrible and canned carrots. I've never been to a Japanese restaurant that everything was disposable; from the silver to the styrofoam cups and plastic plates. When I checked out the lady asked how was everything? I told her my husband said his alright, but I didn't like mine. The response was "that will be $56.78. NEVER WILL I GO BACK TO THIS RESTAURANT.

There is plenty of seating, it was on the louder side between loud music, the sound of people in a restaurant, and there are tvs on. A little overstimulating for me and my elderly companion. You can order from a slip with sushi rolls, sashimi, and other items. The buffet is all you can eat, and it's my understanding it's all included in the price. We ordered four different rolls, and I scoped out the buffet. We hadn't realized it was all included when we planned to eat here, but good to know. I got some fresh fruit and fried plantain for us to share from the buffet. They had lots of orange chicken, sushi rolls on display, soups, crab, and so much more. It all looked delicious. The sushi rolls we ordered were perfect, the seafood was fresh and rolls well prepared. I haven't been to a buffet in a while, but I haven't to say the quality was great. Everything on the buffet was hot and steaming. It was on the pricier side for two people, but it was a nice treat for visiting from out of town.

My "spring roll" was not a spring roll at all, but a deep fried tiny egg roll. My Tempura veggies were so overcooked and over battered that between the two of us, we were unable to eat them. Wish we had a camera to shoot photos. To top it all off, the bill was $42.00, $50.00 with tip. We are both sick from the deep-fried mess that was served to us. They need to learn to cook Japanese. Learn a great Teriyaki sauce that the locals will crave. Learn to cook tiny bites. Learn to cook wonderful noodles with shrimp, pork, veggies, or beef.

Akami Sushi & Grill was a really pleasant surprise in Dawsonville. I honestly did not expect to…read morefind a sushi spot this good on the north side of Atlanta, but this place absolutely delivered. First off, full transparency: I am NOT some sushi expert. I'm not going to pretend I can break down every fish and technique like a professional critic. What I can tell you is simple -- I grabbed sushi, put it in my mouth, and it was yummy yummy in my tum-tum. That's my expert analysis. But seriously, the sushi was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. You really do eat with your eyes first, and everything coming out of the kitchen looked excellent. The rolls looked clean, colorful, and well made without being overloaded. Add in the soy sauce, wasabi, yum-yum sauce, and the whole experience just worked. The gyoza was an excellent starter. Nice crisp on the bottom, soft on top, and the sauce paired with it really well. We also tried the Beef Tataki. Flavor-wise, it was good, but I do wish the beef had been a little more tender. Personally, I'd probably skip that dish next time, but honestly this is a sushi restaurant, so I'm not going to hold one beef appetizer against them when everything else was very strong. The chicken tonkatsu with fried rice was excellent. Super crispy breading, juicy chicken, and the sauce on top tied everything together really well. Next time I actually want to try the pork cutlet because they clearly know how to fry food properly. Service was A+. Spencer took care of us and was a gentleman from beginning to end. Friendly, attentive, and made the whole experience even better. The inside of the restaurant deserves its own paragraph because they did an AMAZING job with the design. It's modern, spacious, clean, and honestly feels much more upscale than you'd expect in Dawsonville. The booths and tables are roomy, we never felt cramped, and the whole atmosphere makes it feel like a great date-night spot or somewhere you can actually relax and enjoy dinner. Pricing varies depending on the sushi rolls. Some are around $13 while others go into the $15-17 range depending on what you order, which honestly feels pretty normal for quality sushi these days. Also, one final important detail: When you leave, grab one of those little guava candies by the entrance. I'm telling you right now, those things are ridiculously good. Plenty of parking too since it's right there by the North Georgia Premium Outlets area. Overall, very happy with this place and definitely one of the better surprises I've had in Dawsonville in a long time. We'll absolutely be back. And yes... all of this was enjoyed properly with a Coke Zero because they are a Coca-Cola spot.

I have to remember to take photos of the inside during my next visit. I ordered the chicken Yaki Lo Mein with onions and it was good. The next day, I ordered the Lovely Roll and chicken fried rice with onions. Everything was tasty, my only complaints are, I wish they hadn't put the sushi rolls in the same bag as the fried rice. The rolls were warm and by the time I got home the seaweed was really chewy so I had to remove it. It would be nice if they had a spicy fried rice option as well, like the Japanese restaurant I always went to before finding them. I highly recommend this establish and glad it's in Dawsonville.
