Sushi Akio - Forest Hills

We originally made a resso for 7 people for 12 on Sunday. We weren’t able to make it until 1:30 so we called ahead and luckily they were too busy that day and were able to accommodate. We wanted to do omakase so we took over the sushi bar (which fits about 8). For $90, you get 16 courses. I can’t remember all the pieces we ate but I do remember that my favorite pieces included the sweet shrimp (especially the fried shrimp head), wagyu, uni with caviar, fatty yellowtail, scallop, and monkfish liver. I think this was my first time trying monkfish liver and it was great. It’s rich but it came served with some kind cucumber mango lime salsa, which sounds like a weird pairing but it just worked. They also kept the sake flowing for us, which made for a fun brunch. From the outside, it looks like a regular sushi takeout place, but don’t sleep on the omakase!

This is my favorite sushi place in Forest Hills. There's something about their authentic sushi quality here that really appeals to my palate. Thanks for all the delicious rolls you make!Food: 5/5

I ordered a delivery ofMiso soup, salad, and some hand rolls. I have recently moved into the neighborhood and I have been trying new locations. The salad and soup were tasty. The rolls did not really have flavor specifically the shrimp tempura roll. Tasted as if the panko crumbs were not seasoned. The food was alright.

Would NOT recommend. Can't believe that they would serve this.. disgusting, you just lost a customer.

After being in 100s of sushi places in NYC, I’m certain this is the best I had.
