Went to Akebono for dinner while in Des Moines for a volleyball tournament. Our group had traveled from Atlanta and Southern California so we have had our fair share of decent Japanese food. We called ahead as we were walking over from our hotel and they were kind enough to hold a table for us which we greatly appreciated on a busy Friday night. When we arrived we were seated quickly and greeted by both our server (Samantha and Nick (maybe manager/owner? . As with previous reviews, Nick was amazing. He was personable, funny, and extremely engaging as he frequently visited our table to check in or just make us laugh. Samantha was extremely attentive as well. The food was great. We ordered a c...
Needed some sushi and this came across my radar. The best part was how great the server Nick was. He saw my Greenfield shirt, realized I had just been through a tornado, and was uber kind. Brought me a complimentary soup and salad. They were good. I chose the Mulberry and the ZeeZee. They were both okay. I was soooo hungry and ate almost all of both. The flavor was fine, there wasn 't much fish in either roll. I was craving that punch of actual fish. Service was wonderful. Space was inviting. Lots of choices for seating. I was there during happy hour and the most annoying guy was at the bar right next to me. I wish I would have sat in the other section. Not the restaurant 's fault. In a futu...
I don't know what I was thinking going for sushi in Iowa, but I did learn that average ratings are very much location specific. If you don't have much to compare to, everything gets 4.7. Service at Akebono was friendly, food preparation was speedy, presentation nice. The spicy yellowtail maki was good, I did not expect the jalapeno to fit this well. However, both the maguro and the shrimp were not fresh, both tasted very off, which is the case if it was kept for too long, or wasn't fresh to begin with. That was a turn-off, I actually left the 2nd piece of maguro.
We have always loved this spot! Back in town after 3+ years and finally got to visit again last Friday night. The food and drinks are still amazing. The bartender is outstanding! Her name is Laura and her style of service is so professional, yet super cool and very friendly. She gave us great recommendations and it was so fun to watch her in action. She has great flow and is a huge asset to this restaurant. We’ll be back! Thank you Akebono for your non stop consistency and quality of product and staff. Special shout out to the Nicks!

Nam and Tim are the best host of a great time I have never met two guys who are so nice. Had an amazing lunch. I work downtown and love eating local and exploring the skywalk. Akebono is a little hop off the skywalk but a great adventure with my co-workers. The food was phenomenal and the sushi was some of the best I had including living in California. I highly recommend akebono for a great Atmosphere and a great time.
Food was ok, great old fashioned cocktails. I've had better.... But I've had much worse. Location was cool. Pricing was not bad. Overall.... Will try new places rather then just commit to the spot
The place a high-class atmosphere decorated with cool asian-inspired art and friendly staff that gives the entire place a casual atmosphere. Food was delicious and served in filling proportions.
5 stars all around. GREAT food, the bartender was awesome, the Nam#5 (cocktail) was too good. No complaints at all and I’m glad i found this place. If ever in the area again, i will be back! Reserviere jetzt einen Tisch
Nam and Tim are hands down the best Japanese restaurant owners in the area. They used to own Taki back in the day and provide the best experience possible for their patrons.
Really fun place with great service and excellent sushi and sashimi!
