Akita Sushi

Decent little place in Woodbridge. Not the greatest or freshest Sushi. Servers were the best part of the visit and they weren’t even great. The only drawback as well is that when you order a number of things they always tend to forget a couple of your orders and they never end up coming.
We’ve visited Akita numerous times and with every single visit we can probably point out a few things we’ve ordered that were never brought to our table.
They also don’t seem to listen very well when ordering. We give them the exact pieces we want for the single orders and they always seem to not get it right. They bring you the heavy stuff first so you can get full faster which is not fun if you’re at an ayce joint. This place can definitely get better.
Also the design is very weird, a bunch of hockey stuff for an Asian restaurant, it is cozy though.

The sushi tasted stale and unfresh, the waitresses were apathetic, the atmosphere is over-​the-​top dark and the environment was simply as distasteful as the food itself. Would not recommend; neither for the price (which is steep), the food (I had to go to the washroom to avoid puking), and the service.

Sorry but this place use to be so good when it first opened. The service is not good, and when you order you feel like your bothering them lol. I don’t think I’ll be back here, it’s to bad because I did like it at first.

This place is just meh. I’ve definitely had better sushi. I feel like I’m always being rushed here and the waitress’ are quite rude.
The quality of the food isn’t the greatest. I feel as if most of the time they warm up left overs. For me it’s not worth the drive (I live in Toronto), I can find better quality sushi in Toronto.
I’m also not very fond of the 10% service charge that we’re automatically charged. I mean is that a tip?

If you are looking for good sushi/​good service/​good experience, do not come here!
The sushi is honestly gross, the menu is so limited and average. Everything is plated with absolutely no effort, and most disappointing; the wait staff barely speak English, extremely annoying when you have to ask for water 20 times, either that or they simply don’t care. For the price of Akita, there’s MUCH better places in the area.

I didn’t eat from their AYCE menu this time (I have in the past, a few years ago, but it’s been a long time so I don’t think it’s relevant), so my review is not regarding that. I ordered the shrimp tempura roll and sushi pizza, both of which were priced reasonably in that their prices are on par with the other sushi restaurants I frequent. Their décor was modern and clean — I really liked it.
However, their food left quite a bit to be desired. I came early in the evening on a Wednesday, so they weren’t very busy (probably 3 tables were occupied). Their food didn’t taste very fresh. The shrimp tempura rolls were pretty good. However, the sushi pizza tasted off and wasn’t the best.
I’ve had better sushi for the same price. However, due to the convenient location and good hours (they open until 11pm from Monday to Saturday), I will probably be back. But I just don’t recommend them if you could eat at another place.

Standard AYCE sushi. Service is fast and servers were nice.
Only complaint is that because my boyfriend and I went to eat late at night, the food did not taste fresh. Also, 10% gratituity was added onto the bill.

Not the worst, not the best.
Pros:
— Fast service
— Huge selection (more so at dinner, but you’re paying the difference)
— Butterfly cheese (Nom, so good)
Cons:
— They automatically add 10% tip to the bill (so don’t add on top of that!)
— The bill is given to you right after you order ice cream, which i think is kind of rude
Overall, I would say that it’s a pretty standard AYCE Japanese sushi place. I’ve been coming here ever since I was in high school (which isn’t saying really much if I won’t disclose my age =p); however, this is more so because of it’s convenient location than anything else. They’ve done some renovations recently which I personally think look ugly.
But hey, it’s not a bad place. Generally speaking, AYCE sushi places are quite $$$ to begin with. I feel like the past reviews are a little harsh… but then again, to each his own?
