I liked the food better here than when I chaperoned a trip to Japan! Granted I was with a group of students and we ate within a budget but our party of four adults were really pleased with everything about our varied menu choices at Akai Hana. Well presented and Very pleasant dining room.

If you're looking for fresh sushi in Ohio, this place is a gem! You can really trust the quality of the fish - I've never had any issues. I'm usually a little hesitant about eating raw fish, especially since we're not near the coast, but they handle their ingredients really well. Everything tastes super fresh. My favorite rolls are: Tuna Bliss B, red dragon, rainbow, spicy scallops(just less mayo). Their king salmon sashimi is 😚 I've recently tried their Korean dishes, the Bulgogi and Kal Bi and they were both wonderful. Edamame is great too. Wasn't too impressed with vegetable spring rolls but they weren't bad. Place is always busy, service remains top notch even during busy times, the staff is kind and professional.

Fish was amazing! They had a variety of more uncommon fish all were super fresh. If you prefer traditional sushi and focus on sashimi then this place is for you. Spent about $200 with tip mostly sashimi so we tried a good variety. Will be going back.

This is absolutely one of our favorites in Columbus. We have been coming here for years. I do miss the warm towels, but everything else is still amazing. My favorites are the asparagus roll and the sweet potato roll, and inari. We love the spring rolls and veggie tempura. We have a few servers that we like the most, but haven’t had one that is bad. Tonight, our reservations were for 4pm. It was quite empty, more so than usual, and we were out by 5:15. The food was wonderful. I would’ve liked to see our server a little more than he was around, as it would’ve been great to get a second glass of plum wine. But, of course we will be back!

Had an exquisite dinner at Akai Hana. The king salmon nigiri truly melted in my mouth and was the single best bite. Service was absolutely perfect and so attentive. We visited on a Saturday night around 8pm and didn't have to wait. I would definitely recommend the sushi and the entrees, will have to come back and try more things on the extensive menu.
