Best Sushi Restaurants in Richmond

There’s a lot of overrated, overpriced fine dining in the city. This is not that. Every cent you pay for this meal is worth it, and the service is just excellent. I’ve never had a more thoughtful, delicious meal (aside from grandma’s, of course). My friend took me here for their birthday because it’s their favorite steak in the city, and it’s my favorite too. So delicious that I had to come back twice in one week! Plus, they are mindful and considerate of allergies and have an excellent bourbon and wine list. I love that it’s one of the few places that isn’t super cold—I can wear my cutest outfits here. Best steak I have ever had, every time. Don’t pass up those potatoes, either!

The experience of last night was super fun well taken care of. The fact that this birthday experience was notes was the best. We will definitely be coming back. 

I am extremely satisfied. Food was great, incredible atmosphere, impeccable service. Will be back!!

Every Valentine's Day we go to teppanyaki! We've tried Bennihanas and the one in Alameda and a few others, but Hana Japan is the best! A funny cooking show, very attentive staff, and excellent food and drinks. You want everything with garlic butter!!

Dining at Akemi is always a satisfying experience: the food is delicious, fresh and a good value for the quality and size of portions. I typically order the Salmon miso bento, it comes with delicious white miso soup, salmon grilled with umami rich miso sauce and extra on side, cabbage salad, roasted brussel sprouts with honey mustard glaze and rice; enough food to take a portion home for next days lunch. Love the ambience when they play soft Jazz : pop music not so much since I still like to have conversations with my dining companions. I’ve come here many times over many years and it is one of my favorite Japanese restaurants for all kinds of occasions.
