TOP restaurant in all Louisiana. Texas should be jealous and Alabama's desperate to have their recipes . Of course we are the lucky ones to be living close by and enjoying the sushi at AKI, is just delightful. WE can not explain how delicate and tender the fish that the chef selects every morning is. He is proud to serve the top of the line fish in the market. we have never been disappointed at this amazing establishment. The wait every evening is a testament to this fact.

This has got to be some of the best sushi I've had anywhere. Love the intimate feel. The service is great and Oui and his staff are incredible.

Hands down the best sushi in Louisiana! The Atlantic Salmon Appetizers is one of the most delicious things I've ever put in my mouth. The Rachel roll is also tasty. Oui is talented, sweet & worth every penny. Do yourself a favor and check it out.

The best sushi on the northshore. Ordered the pink lady roll, the Atlantic salmon, tempura, and v roll. Everything was great. They don’t take reservations on the weekends. We waited about 45 mins but it was worth it. Will def be coming back!

I ate there for the first time last Saturday with on of my girlfriends. The sea bass and Hawaiian seafood salad were amazing. I definitely plan on dining here again.

THIS is the place to go! First time trying Aki and they knocked it out of the park. I never leave reviews good or bad but I felt compelled to praise this restaurant. The service was impeccable, the food was sensational and the atmosphere of the quaint location tied it all together even for a busy Friday night. This was not just an amazing dinner but more of an experience I wont forget. I ordered the Nigiri sampler entree and the fish was so fresh that it melted in my mouth. %1000 chance I will be back very soon.

I was so thankful after a long day to come here as a respite. I didn’t expect an atmosphere both home-y and refined with their beautiful ceramic plating and understated interior design that reminds me of a super cool grandma. Plus larger portions than expected for a higher-end sushi restaurant! They were kind and attentive even though I was a small party of one. I got the Hawaiian dish and that marinade was so refreshing and light. And the octopus was awesome too, thankfully not the fried kind haha with plenty of tentacles. I’m grateful that there’s places in covington like this that have consistency and therefore a reputation! I would definitely go back on my birthday.

Great food. Great service. Unique. Pricey. Parking is difficult. I recommend, it's worth a try.
Been to many sushi restaurants around the US, this is hands down the best sushi I ever had in my life. Terrific staff, delicious choices of sake and beer, and sushi that will steal you away to another world. Love the cozy home aesthetic as well making this a MUST go to for any sushi lover of any kind. You won’t regret it I promise!

Outstanding high quality sushi; higher end pricing but generous portions of tuna and salmon
