Sushi Katsu

Been coming here for at least 20 years. Tried going over Xmas break while we were in town, and saw they are closed until further notice due to medical reasons. Hope you get well soon!

This is my new fave sushi place in the area! The sushi is so fresh. I ordered take out and waited inside. All items are made by order which is why it takes slightly longer. They have 1 sushi chef who does it all. If you sit at the bar counter, you can watch him make the sushi in action. It only took 30 mins for my takeout order (&I ordered as a walk in) but he was also finishing 4-5 other tickets. Sushi will always take longer then reg hot food so come in with the expectation that you sushi is made to order and can take a bit longer. You can't rush greatness. The whole technique takes time. Overall, loved the staff! They were super nice while I waited. The food was amazing! I even had left overs. Would recommend a combo to try it all. But really, just try it all!

Sushi Katsu, is one of the best of the best in Sushi. This restaurant makes you feel like you're sitting in Tokyo not Akron, Ohio.

OK, first off, sushi katsu does not have katsu. (Imagine if spaghetti warehouse told you they have no spaghetti on the menu.) Yes, even the katsu dinner on the menu is not katsu- it's a California roll and seaweed salad? No, there's no description on the online menu. Second, why did it take 45 minutes to make 3 rolls of sushi and an order of dumplings? It's always dead and the service is always slow. I really wanted to like this place but that was the last straw... :(

Being rude to potential costumers who walk in because you are busy and feeling overwhelmed is a great way to assure that a business doesn't have to worry about being busy in the future. They are busy tonight so cannot seat people. Understandable. It is nice to see businesses making money after the rough years we have all had. However they offer carry out so we asked about this since the problem seems to be the availability of a table in this small restaurant, but received a terse response. A woman came in behind us and asked the same thing and received a downright rude response. Maybe we will try them again on another night. Not sure.

The best sushi in the Akron/Fairlawn area. You can tell they take care in what they make. The large chirashi is well thought-out and is amazing. You can tell how good a Japanese restaurant is by how well they do that dish and how it's composed. I've never been disappointed in anything I've ordered. The wait may be a little bit longer, but that's because it's popular which is because the food is good and it's sushi and Japanese cuisine done correctly.

Small restaurant. Good ambiance. Sushi is excellent. Beer is cold. Prices are comparable. Strong 8 out of 10.

I've been to dozens of sushi restaurants in Northeast, Ohio, and I have to say that Sushi Katsu stands out as the best, most authentic sushi. They easily have the best spicy tuna roll around here. It's actually spicy and you can really taste the freshness of the tuna. It's not the biggest, fanciest sushi restaurant, but the food is genuinely special. The staff is friendly as well. I highly recommend trying it out.

Walked in at 8:08 to be greeted by an extremely rude employee that just said "No" and proceeded to exclaim that they can't seat us because they "close in 45 minutes". They close at 9pm.Cannot speak to the food, but the attitude and temperament of the employees has encouraged me to never step foot in this establishment again.

Good sushi and the chef is always very engaged with the patrons at the bar. Only drawback is that your sushi will take quite while to get made.
