Our Philosophy
At Akira Sushi Bar, we pride ourselves in having the freshest and highest quality of ingredients used to prepare your food. Our sushi begins with the breakdown of every atom in creating the perfect vinegared rice. We invite you to enhance your epicurean palate by exploring our traditional and new flavors which are achieved by pairing unique ingredients and elements of Japanese cuisine for an exquisite dining experience at Akira. We fly in special item fish such as: Toro, Bluefin Tuna, Ahi Big Eye, and Uni every Tuesday and Friday from certified license providers to guarantee you the best taste and quality.  At Akira, we also offer the traditional hot towel (oshibori) before your meal and oranges at the end of your meal.
