Just moved to the city and was searching for a good sushi place, it was very small (seats about 12) I ordered the terryaki chicken 4 pc. california roll special which I liked because I usually like my sushi with eel/unagi sauce but they put some kind or seasoning on the rice where it tastes great without. I also ordered the smoked salmon (Sake Maki) which was alright but, a bit dry (my boyfriend liked it).My boyfriend ordered the spicy salmon roll (only 2 pc.) both of us weren't too fond of it, it was a strange roll and the salmon was very mushy(shredded?). Also there were 2 things flying around that looked like mosquitoes or something that scared us but, overall i think I like the place my food was good and they didn't charge me for the glass I broke. I really wish there was more of a selection of rolls though. Pros: warm, woman sushi chef Cons: small, humid, mosquitoes?

I was looking for a place to try sushi while in the SF area, and came across Akiko's. My fiance and I decided to give it a try & were pleasantly surprised. The sushi was so fresh and was delicious! IWe loved the ambiance of the place, being a small "hole in the wall" type of place it made us feel at home. The staff was friendly and prices are also pretty good considering it was in the city. I will definitely be coming back here on my next trip to SF!!

I'm from the east coast and I love finding good sushi places in SF. This wasn't one of them. I ordered takeout at 9:00 pm and when I got there to pick up, the first thought in my mind as I opened the door was "fishy". This is never a good sign. I took the sushi and sashimi combo back to the hotel. The salad was good, but all the shashimi tasted bad. I should have refused the order as soon as I smelled it. The sad thing is that since I don't live here, I won't be giving this cozy place another chance.

OK, I had to see this place for myself when I read the sushi chef was female. I am from L.A. but I was in S.F. for work and I went to this place one night before it got busy. There are only like six tables in this "hole in the wall" sushi place. Our waitress was very nice; most of the sushi I ordered was good (don't order the Philly Roll, it's too salty). I would recommend the Toro (fatty tuna) and Rainbow Roll. If I am ever in S.F. again, I will definitely go back to this place. Pros: fresh fish, reasonable price, intimate setting (small) Cons: small restaurant, parking (luckily I didn't have to park!)

i love this place. it is extremely small- only holds about 10 people at a time. the sushi is great and reason, and the environment is really cozy. the best part is that it is a female sushi chef and an all female staff! way to break those cultural barriers ladies. drawbacks- they often do not have more exotics fish like uni

I live nearby and there are a few sushi joints in the area. Out of all those, I come here the most. The place is a bit too cramped in my opinion, but the sushi makes up for that. It is remarkably inexpensive considering how good it is. The miso soup isn't that great but the fish is sparkling fresh. I usually get one of the chef's specials. I just wish they had green tea ice cream. Pros: cheap, great food Cons: cramped
