Akai Hana - Morehead City

The sushi here is incredibly fresh! There's a sizable menu featuring a wide range of local seafood options. The warm and friendly staff contribute to the clean and elegant atmosphere of Akai Hana. I will definitely return to sample the rest of the dishes.

I've visited this restaurant several times, and it consistently delivers an excellent experience. The sushi chef usually remembers my regular order, but since he wasn’t there tonight, I decided to try something different. I ended up having the best sushi I've ever tasted—it's called the Banzai roll. We also enjoyed some delicious soups and various other sushi and dishes, and everything was fantastic as always!

The sushi was great, but I think they should offer the buy-one-get-one deal daily for lunch. The staff was very friendly, and the sushi chef was especially nice. I plan to return on Tuesday or Wednesday for another round if you buy one! Definitely sit at the sushi bar; it's a fun experience!

If I could get six stars, I would. Amazing sushi and incredible service. I was in Japan and would say the sushi at Akai is definitely in place. The ginger tastes fresh and the Wasabi is definitely not the cheap stuff like other places. This has become my food stop once a week.

The only place I will ever go for sushi. By far this is the best place around. Staff are always nice and helpful. We have grown a strong relationship with San who always takes care of us. Ingredients are always fresh and everything is always delicious everytime.
