Me and my friend always pick a new place downtown to try for some snacks and a drink. This place did not upset! The Big Buddha and the red glowing bar is what drew us in. The hostess was very nice and pointed us to the bar. Christina was our bartender, she was great and recommended the pot stickers and yellow tail sushi roll. The food came out pretty quick and it was so good. Great experience all around, we will be back!!

This place is incredible! Teagan is the absolute best! She is unbelievably attentive and insightful to say the least. If I was to recommend any place in downtown San Diego it would be AKA! More importantly Teagan!

Highly recommended their craft old fashioned. Their prime steak was a 10/10. Cool decor and in the edge of Gaslamp so you can hop around anywhere after too.

Not really a fan of this place even though I really try to like it. Its definately on the expensive side for sushi and looks like everyone there was there for a special occasion. Regardless on the price, the food was just okay. The best thing there was the poke. The presentation looked good. The server was very nice. I couldnt see myself going here again, the price really doesn't justify the taste of the food. It is a fusion restaurant but the combination of the ingredients just didn't match up. Even the drinks were a lil of... read more
