Akashi is just in the heart of Eixample and though the front door is not appealing, this is one of the sushi places you should know in Barcelona: friendly staff, top food, and not flooded by the tourists (OK, in March, tourists were not yet flooding Barcelona!). Not on the cheap end, but not too expensive either. Do not forget to try the toro tuna, of course...

Great service! From the starters, the gyoza was excellent. Thin dough and it has the perfect amount of filling. We then had sushi which was very fresh. The only reasons for a 4 star are the price and that I didn’t like the seaweed salad. Overall great experience!

All foods are great...well served and feels like we are in Japan. Great atmosphere though..Served food are being combined with photographies from different cities in the land of the rising Sun. Good ambience..will be back for sure..

Very welcoming and excellent service, however the food had some ups and downs. The miso soup was fine, but the gyoza (normally fried in the Japanese style) were boiled and tasteless. The sushi was excellent, however the desserts not quite as authentic as I was expecting.

For the quality the set menu was good value indeed.

That says it all, right? After Japan, Sushi is just not the same anymore, living in Barcelona. But Akashi Gallery is the one who is 100% authentic and the quality and perfection behind every single piece of fish is just marvellous. You have to make a reservation before going as it's usually fully booked, which also says it all!
