Akahana was a delightful surprise for my family! We were staying in Belmont for a few days and just…read morechecked into the hotel. Yearning for something close and good, we picked Akahana. Woah, I ordered the Special Pho and couldn't believe how flavorful the broth was! It was served with sprouts, cilantro, basil, hoisin and siracha but I didn't need to add anything to it. It was around $12 and portions were huge, at least 2 meals. We ordered the deep see sushi roll as well. It was good too. I didn't not read the entire description and was surprised to see the minced fish and that it was fried on the outside. The tuna and salmon were fresh and tasteful. The kids got chicken nuggets with some fried rice. Again, high quality nuggets, crispy and juicy. If you are in the North Belmont area, I recommend this restaurant! You will be pleasantly surprised

I got crab Rangoon, spring rolls, and spicy basil chicken with fried rice. The crab Rangoon was not super flavorful. I love this dish but didn't care for this one. The spring rolls were good. The spicy basil chicken must have had a hidden spice that my body didn't totally like. It tasted good and I didn't taste a lot of heat. I did a to go over. They were fast with preparing. I would probably return to try something else on the menu.

In Gastonia, where most local Asian establishments choose to shutter their doors on Mondays, Jia…read moreremains a shining sanctuary of availability. This consistency is not merely convenient: it's a commitment. We had ordered a side of crunchy noodles, unaware that every bowl of Wonton Soup arrived already accompanied by them. The result was a surplus that we gladly consumed and saved more for leftovers. The soup itself was a masterclass in nostalgia: steaming, plump dumplings submerged in a broth with a strong pleasant flavor punctuated by the sharp fresh bite of scallions. For the main course, I explored the Bulgogi Steak, served with tortillas. The meat possessed a surprising, sophisticated sweetness, nestled amongst a garden of onions so plentiful they promised to enrich several meals yet to come. My companion's Dinner Sushi Combo was equally impressive; the sashimi featured generous, thick cuts of fish that spoke of undeniable quality and freshness. Even the beverages offered their own narrative. The Hot Tea was bitter yet pleasant, a sharp contrast to the Southern Sweet Tea, which remains a high standard of local craft. While the Crispy Calamari leaned heavily into salt and onion, and the Crab Rangoons were reliably filling, the overall experience far exceeded the baseline of fusion dining. The Verdict: Jia Asian Fusion & Sushi Bar does more than merely occupy a slot on a Monday calendar; it excels. It provides high-quality, fresh ingredients and nostalgic comforts at a time when the rest of the city's culinary scene has largely gone quiet. Between the "unholy" generosity of the portions and the technical precision of the sashimi, it remains a staple of my consistent rotation for a reason. Rating: 5/5 Stars

She's rude and up charges me every time I go in. Last time when I asked why I was getting up charged for my normal meal instead of explaining it politely she decided to argue with me. I worked in restaurants for a long time and I'm usually very non-confrontational with anybody who works at restaurants because of that. She complained about me loudly right in front of me. Then my food was tampered with. I found a bunch of human hair in my food. She then had the audacity to say that it was because they used acid while cooking my food that there was human hair in it. It was the worst excuse I've ever heard. I will never go back.
