“ Came in to try the sushi. We had the ell avocado roll and added cream cheese, and we also tried the shrimp tempura roll. Both the rolls were great, very tasty fresh made and good size. The restaurant is new and very clean, and the service was friendly and prompt. I will be going back for lunch to try the other food , the orange chicken pictures look great but i will update the total review, today the only negative was we asked for lemon and ice for our water and we never received it. Again, it's not a big deal. we didn't even ask again, and we did tip over 20%. Our server was very nice, but still, it's something still worth noting. 5 stars regardless because of overall experience, I will update after lunch visit soon. ... ”
“ SO GOOD!!!! I saw good reviews and it did not disappoint. I got the Szechuan chicken wontons, pork gyoza, and pork soup dumplings. If I come back to the springs I WILL be coming back here!! ”
“ My family and I are absolutely blown away. We scheduled a reservation for a party for 10 and had stellar service. Princess was such a great host, the food came out quickly and it was so delicious. I was able to try the BBQ pork buns, 3 of their sushi rolls, the Korean BBQ Beef, Orange chicken and white and fried rice. It was all unbelievably tasty. The fried rice was the best I have ever had! Beyond that, the music and decor was so fun and lively!! ”
“ The food was absolutely beautiful. We ordered a variety of the menu and spent more than we normally would per person because it was the first time going. The plating was wonderful and a beautiful work of art. The food was really tasty and interesting. Sushi was extremely fresh and awesome. Can't wait to try more of the menu. The lunch specials look super promising. The Creme Brule cheesecake was also very tasty. Everyone should try this place. It's head over heels better than the last place that was in this spot. ”
“ Delicious all around. Nice presentation and good flavors. Crispy spring rolls & sesame chicken. Onion soup dumplings were unexpected, but delicious. Nice variety of Asian cuisines, and we'll definitely be back to try more. ”
“ I was browsing Google Maps for a new place to try and stumbled upon Akarui. It’s a great find, and I'd recommend others check it out too. We began with the Dim Sum menu and ordered the shrimp dumplings and the fish and shrimp dumplings. Both were delicious. We also ordered a couple of sushi rolls and a few pieces of Nigiri. The Nigiri was particularly good, featuring generous portions of sushi and excellent flavor. The waitress was very friendly and helpful. ”
“ Went to eat sushi and had a good time. Small sushi menu, but it has all the favorites. Lots of options for noodles dishes and traditional dishes. Sushi was good and the staff was friendly. ”
“ Great service, food, and environment! Hidden gem! Went during Mother's Day. Happy to say we will be returning and can't wait! Everything was hot and fresh! Must try the spicy duck soup it was delicious! My kiddos enjoyed the orange chicken. No pictures since it was devoured! ”
