Reviews for Akiko's Restaurant in San Francisco, CA

San Francisco has so much culture and delicious food throughout the city. Akiko's is one of the good ones that provide... sushi!! Here, we went with there omakase and each dish was mind blowing. Everything from the smoked sashimi & uni to their snowcrab soup and unique creations tasted great!! We made a reel/TikTok on @phidingthefam that showcases each dish. Only reason wedidn't give it 5 star, is the price. It was expensive and it may deter people. Read more

The quality of their seafood are worth the money except one we had; however, the seasoning is a bit off. A few dishes are too... salty. I normally find some Japanese food are too sweat, but it's just the way they are. The sesame ice cream is not pleasant.We like Otsumami and wish the fern charred instead of taste watery. Wagyu dumplings and Chawanmushi are yummy. Nama Uni aredivine. Read more

I cant say for sure that what I ordered was worth $70 but its what I paid. I walked down bc of the reviews. The place sits maybe... 16 but there were definitely less diners between 8-9. In any case I initially stepped in to take out and then someone left so Iasked the male waiting tables if I could sit, he said yes cleaned the table and then I was asked to wait outside to allow atable of two to be seated. In any case- I wasn’t impressed by the food, its exorbitant cost or the service. This was alsothe amount of soy sauce I was given… the packets give you more! = wish the reviews were right! Read more

This was a fantastic experience. It was like a perfect dance from start to finish. The kitchen and sushi chefs we perfectly... synchronous. The food was elegant with breathtaking delivery. One of the best meals of a lifetime. The cost is quite high at 250for the experience plus plus for saki and tip… but worth it for the once in a lifetime experience. It may be useful to haveone tier lower of an option to get more repeat visits…but… if they can sustain on this then keep the magic going. Read more

We had the tasting menu. Impeccable food, service and presentation. I absolutely had an amazing experience at this unique... restaurant. Excellent wine selection as well. Read more

Food was delicious. We had the tasting menu and most of the dishes were excellent, though some were oversalted, which really is... unnecessary for sashimi. Service was attentive in serving dishes and clearing plates but I would have expected more conversationwith the staff about how the food was. They were talking amongst themselves and to just a few of the guests they appeared toknow. Prices were exorbitant. While I can expect that for top of the line Japanese, the aforementioned service gaps made it feeloverpriced. Read more

Dinner was amazing. The food was excellent and the service was stellar. They serve an Omakase style meal which tends to be a bit... up there in price, but the presentation and quality makes it worth it. I would definitely recommend this place. Read more

A lovely meal overall. Nicely designed dining room with a lovely staff. Sushi was on point for the most part. Nigiri was all... solid. Chawanmushi was stellar and a must do. It went a little sideways on a roll that should have been amazing but a bitunbalanced with too much salmon roe overpowering the rest of the fish. Also, a recommended last bite was otoro with caviar,where the toro overpowered the caviar. Overall, the fish and service was great, just a couple missteps. Would give it 4.5 starsif I could. Read more
