    Cool ambience. Reminds me of a traditional Japanese sushi bar. Great service. Excellent sushi for a good price. Highly recommend and will come back!

    Ordered delivery a few sushi rolls and omakase sashimi combo. Wait time about one hour. Definitely missed the decoration of Japanese food, but fish are edible. Costs are inflated for the delivery as we know. White Akita roll is really good. Recommended. Will try the in house next time.

    Great little hole in the wall sushi spot! We over ordered-we shared the Akita beauty combo which is chef's choice nigiri and your choice of a special roll. We got the rainbow roll. It came with soup and salad and for a few bucks extra they added a soup and salad since my husband and I were sharing. We also got the mix tempura which came out piping hot and was really good-especially the shrimp. Service was fast even though they were busy. Will return.

    We were traveling and found Akita in Escondido. On entrance, it looked like the typical family style restaurant, but that's where the comparisons stop. The quality and preparation I look for was there and it was reflected in the taste. We had the caterpillar roll, Tonkatsu Ramen, cucumber salad and agedashi tofu. Each takes a certain amount of technique, whether it's actually making a smaller, tighter roll on their sushi, the level of acidity in the cucumber salad or the fried consistency for the agedashi tofu. Akita hit the spot. Service was polite and attentive. Overall, I'd award an extra half star for the overall experience. It's a place I'd like to visit again.
