Akemi Sushi - Langford, British Columbia

Not enough wasabi and soya in our order. Way too much cucumber in the sushi roll. They should be embarrassed.

I am extremely disappointed with the food. I came home all excited to enjoy some sushi rolls with my daughter, only to be absolutely disgusted to the point where I had to spit it out; I couldn’t even choke it down. The rolls were warm (as if they had been ... in a warmer), clearly too much vinegar was used when making the rice because it was super noticeable, and the amount of Avocado they crammed into the rolls was more than a little much. It was a mouthful of WARM MUSH that had been doused in vinegar. I’ve never experienced bad sushi in my life, I didn’t know it was possible - but I just wasted $60 on 4 rolls of whatever that was. Maybe they need a new sushi chef? 🤷‍♀️ Read more

It absolutely baffles me when I see this restaurant with nobody in it. Its great! Weve been there three times now in almost as many weeks, The waitresses are pleasant and nice. The drinks are cold., and the food fresh. Now I must say I saee skip drivers coming and ... going almost every ten minutes but WHY eat in nobody there? Great place with a fireplace and all. Now the front room kinda sucks as you have peoples headlights in your face all the time but the back room is awesome and we always request the back room. Anyway please try! Support this business and go...go eat in! get the hell outta the house. Read more

I was passing through Langford, had a craving for Sushi. Never been to Akemi before. Beyond pleasantly surprised. One gets nervous when you walk into a restaurant and it's bereft of other guests. But I am happy to report, my skepticism was misplaced. Akemi sushi was outstanding, extremely sweet staff ... that were attentive but not overbearing. I ordered spicy salmon rolls (6 pieces) and my wife ordered tuna sashimi, mine was fresh and the pieces of salmon were very generous! My wife reported that her tuna slices were thick and very very fresh, without that "partially frozen food" taste you get with sashimi at some places. The cost was as expected for sushi, average meal for two will cost around $55.00 after tip and tax, you can get better value elsewhere but not with this level of freshness. I can't give a fair rating for atmosphere as the restaurant was empty while we were there, but the decor was tastefully minimal, yet still welcoming especially when combined with friendly staff. Well done Akemi! Keep it up! Read more

I wish there was a 4.5 option. This place was good, but not my favourite so far. Generally good flavors and good quality, but one of several good places in Langford (thank god)
