Lunch at Akiko's Sushi Restaurant, San Francisco, Ca
We've been trying to find decent sushi in or around the financial district for ages. We heard about Akiko's, which is nestled in between a bunch of Irish pubs, and we decided to give it a try. We were pleased to find a casual, homey sushi place that was noticably better than other sushi we'd eaten in the neighborhood.
Sesame Cabbage Salad (gratuit)
This little salad was a tasty and unexpected way to start the meal. Just a few bites to cleanse the palate.
Beef Teriyaki and Tempura Combo $17
A bit pricy, but pretty tasty. The teriyaki was not too sweet, which was a pleasant surprise. And the tempura was crunchy, even if the batter was a bit thick.
Hamachi Kama $8
A pretty good price for this tuna cheek. The sweet sauce was a bit off-putting, but the cheek itself was meaty and delicious.
