This is the BEST sushi that I’ve ever eaten in my life and I’ve been eating sushi for over 30 years.
We sat at the sushi bar and the chefs are very polite and extremely professional!
I’ll definitely be back.

Best sushi I've had on the Northshore. Prices are high and portions are on the smaller side, but the quality justifies it. The place is small and the staff seem genuinely friendly and invested in their guests experience.

This place was great!! The staff was super friendly and parking was convenient. We were greeted and seated right away. We had our sushi within a few minutes of ordering. We will definitely be back!

Definitely the best sushi joint on the north shore. I ordered the dumplings and the George roll. They also have FRESH REAL wasabi (second pic) which is very hard to find in general. They give you a free piece of pineapple after for a desert. Very good service. I will continue to come back here.

We had a wonderful lunch. They start you off with a delicious cucumber salad which is delicious. The presentation of the salad was wonderful. We then split the Spicy Salmon appetizer, sorry no picture for that, and the presentation and taste were superb. We then shared the Teriyaki Box and the taste and presentation again. Were superb. After we ate, they finished us with fresh cut pineapple, a great way to cleanse your palate. We will be back here again.

Great sushi, and great people. The restaurant is in a cozy former house. The sushi rolls were all top quality, fresh and delicious. The edamame, gyoza, and salads were all delicious. Can't go wrong. Check out the pictures!

Aki is owned by one of the best and nicest sushi Chef’s around. His sashimi is off the charts as well as the rolls. If you are in the. NOLA area and are into fresh clean, non mayo style sushi you must give it a try. Anytime we are within 100miles of his restaurant we try and make it to see him. Unfortunately my pictures are not very good as I like to spend time eating rather than photoing. On this visit, our server was well versed on the menu making the trip even more enjoyable.

It was ok. I've had better, many times. Too pricey for what's offered. Tuna did not taste fresh at all

Baton Rouge's loss is Covington's gain....
If you asked Japanese living in Baton Rouge, nine out of ten would say "Sushi-Yama" is (was) the best sushi restaurant in BTR, hands down.
Mr. Oui created and owned this gem before moving to Covington. I am 100% sure that this is the best in Louisiana outside NOLA (or possibly including NOLA). Fresh ingredients and careful treatment of these materials result in great dishes. The small operation makes it possible for the chef to check details in every dish, which wasn't possible in Sushi-Yama.
If you haven't tried it yet, you don't know what you are missing. This restaurant is that good and FB reviews show it (at this point, 51 five stars and 1 four!!!).
Recommended: Atlantic salmon appetizer, Futomaki special (not on the menu), Omakase nigiri (could be pricey, but worth it).

Extremely happy to have found this hidden gem! The diverse types of fish they bring in are impressive. Everything is very fresh and will melt in your mouth. Love the creativity in their sauces as well. The word is getting around and I’m very happy to see our community supporting a fabulous addition to DT Cov!

Really fresh sushi! They start you off with a simple cucumber salad that was very good. Then we enjoyed the salmon appetizer which was drizzled with truffle oil and was absolutely delicious! We also tried the wasabi salad, a mix of fresh seafood with an amazing dressing including fresh wasabi. Also had the Tiger Roll which was really great! And they finished our meal off with some tasty fresh pineapple-which was a great touch! We will definitely be back to explore more of their menu!

Hands down the BEST sushi I've ever had! Would highly recommend this place to anyone on the northshore. The staff was very attentive and nice and the sushi chef was very knowledgeable made sure we were completely satisfied. Will definitely he back!!

We started with the Spicy Tuna Lover starter.. worth every penny! Tuna was extremely fresh, sauce was fantastic, presentation was beautiful. We then had the Rachael Roll without rice - excellent, again super fresh and beautiful presentation. Next was the Six-Three Roll without rice and wrapped in soy - I was a little surprised that the pepper tuna was seared, but thankfully only seared. Again, absolutely delicious. The last roll we tried was the Little Rice Roll, we ordered it exactly as described on the menu. It indeed had very little rice. The special sauce had truffle oil, giving it a very interesting (and good) flavor. While delicious, we enjoyed the other two rolls more. Excellent service, beautiful atmosphere, I'll be back. In fact, I'm ordering take-out today (trying the V. Roll and the Burrito Roll, and of course getting Spice Tuna Lover again).

Hands down the best sushi I have had in a long time. A contender for best sushi of my life.
Richard Taubin
Excellent! Highly recommend ... we are fortunate to have this quality of sushi in Covington.
Clare Helena
My son, daughter in law, and grandson took me to AKI for Mother’s Day dinner and it was delicious. The fried brussel sprouts, and fried mushrooms were amazing. And the Rock N Roll was probably the best one I have ever eaten. Everything was so good that I can’t wait to go back in the near future.
Katy Baughman
Everything was amazing!!! This was the best sushi I’ve ever had! You can tell the owner and chef takes pride in his food!!
Sam Collett
We checked it out on opening night and everything was incredible. The renovations they've done to building are really great. Exposed beams, hardwood floors, etc. The staff was really friendly, service was great, and food was amazing. If you haven't checked out Aki yet, you're doing life wrong.
Shannon Carter Blossman
This place is the real deal for fresh, authentic, and delicious Japanese food! Staff is so friendly!
Susan Talmage Blackall
I can’t think of anything that could have made our dining experiences here better. Fresh is obviously the name of their game and the service and atmosphere equals in greatness. I’ve been waiting for a Japanese restaurant like this in Covington—it’s here. Don’t hesitate! This place is legit!
