"This business has new ownership, as of March 2023 I believe. I loved the old Aka Sushi, and I’ve tried this place once since the new ownership took over and I was disappointed. The people who helped me were very friendly, but the food I tried was not good. I ordered one of their chirashi bowls, shrimp tempura, and the pickles. The chirashi bowl was one of the worst I’ve ever had. The rice had an off putting, overwhelming sour flavor to it (I know vinegar is used in sushi rice, so it should be a little sour, but this tasted like it was old or perhaps they just used way too much vinegar , and the raw fish was warm. To be fair, I ordered takeout, so maybe the fish warmed up during the transit time (I live 5 mins away, for context ? I thought the selection of fish was pretty good, but it was not very pleasant to eat it warm. The tempura was ok, but the shrimp was much smaller and the batter was more dense than the shrimp tempura from the old Aka sushi. The pickles were a disappointment compared to the old owner’s pickles. They were just roughly chopped, pickled cucumbers. When ordering pickles from the old Aka sushi, you got several different kinds (I think three or four? and they were delicious. I feel conflicted comparing the new ownership’s food to the old owner’s food, but at the same time they probably should have changed the name of the business if they were concerned with comparison."
