Akoya in Karlsruhe

Six of us were here and tried the all-you-can-eat option. You order with a tablet, and the food is delivered to your table by a robot or an employee. The staff weren't very friendly, unfortunately, but the atmosphere in the shop was good, and the restaurant is decorated with great attention to detail. But now for the most important thing: the food. The selection is very large for an all-you-can-eat buffet. There's grilled meat, mussels, various fish dishes, cakes, ice cream, sushi, and much more. I've eaten at other all-you-can-eat restaurants many times, but the selection here really impressed me. The quality of the food is average. The sushi and appetizers are good. I especially loved the gyozas! Some of the meat is very tough and simply dry. All in all, we had a nice evening. I think you can try the restaurant and form your own opinion, as the reviews here vary quite a bit. But you'll probably find a better option for all-you-can-eat sushi in Karlsruhe.

Always happy, it was very tasty

I often go to all-you-can-eat restaurants. And unfortunately, this one is a bit of a bad one for me. The food is just okay, but the sushi selection isn't as extensive as at other restaurants (everything else is plentiful here). They only served soy sauce with alcohol (all the other restaurants serve it without alcohol). The staff weren't particularly friendly. Unfortunately, it was a rather bad experience. The food came quickly. You could spend €70 for two people elsewhere and get friendlier service and tastier food with a wider selection of sushi.

The visit was a complete disappointment. The staff was unfriendly and disinterested; you almost felt like you weren't welcome. For an all-you-can-eat restaurant, it's completely unacceptable that you have to wait far too long between courses – it seems more like a delaying tactic than good service. Anyone who goes here shouldn't expect hospitality or a smooth process. Definitely not recommended.

We've visited several times in the past and were satisfied. We were there yesterday and were shocked. It's unbelievable how rude the service is. I can't understand how unfriendly people can be. We were super nice and left a tip at the end. The waitress threw the remaining change into her wallet and left in a bad mood without anything. Our food and drinks were thrown on our table every time, which made us feel very uncomfortable. Our questions weren't answered. And the quality leaves a lot to be desired. We won't be coming again and sincerely hope that your staff gets some training on how to deal with paying customers.

All-you-can-eat with 8 rounds (8 dishes per person) over 2 hours for about €17 per person. There was a large selection of sushi, appetizers, grilled dishes, soups, salads, desserts, etc. – you simply order via tablet. Even as a vegetarian/vegan, it was worth it, with a relatively large selection (although the dishes aren't labeled as vegetarian/vegan, so you have to read through them), and the food was really good! The drinks menu also has a very extensive selection. We will definitely go again.

Asian restaurant with an all-you-can-eat menu; Mon-Sat lunchtime, 2 hours for 16.90, really affordable. Sushi, soups, salads, fish, beef, duck, seafood, chicken, noodles, vegetables, fruit, and ice cream. You order via tablet, and shortly after, a little robot arrives with your food. Cool 👏

I'm familiar with several tablet restaurants and the competition in Karlsruhe, so I was thrilled to see that there's another all-you-can-eat restaurant in Karlsruhe with tablet functionality. The ambiance is quite cute at first glance, and there are more than enough umbrellas on the terrace. The food was served by robots. We received a brief, but not particularly friendly, service and was quite irritating. The food was mostly cold; spring rolls, squid rings, and shrimp were ice cold. The selection is very limited; other restaurants are better. I wouldn't go again.

I've rarely eaten such a bad meal. Unfortunately, I can't recommend this restaurant at all.

I've wanted to eat there for years but never had the time. I drove almost 50 km for junk! We love eating sushi there but the sushi is awful and not fresh. The roll is half loose, you order food and then a robot comes and stops at other tables. Disgusting food, no protection from spit etc. On top of that, it's very dirty and hasn't even been cleaned while we were there! The warm food was much better, seven and a half sushis, however, all three of us had diarrhea when we got home! 100 euros wasted! I would always recommend eating in a restaurant or an all you can eat restaurant instead of going there.

Good all-you-can-eat sushi. The price is reasonable. It's quite large, and unfortunately, you can't sit outside.

Best tablet-ordering restaurant in Karlsruhe

Food was great, waiters were very kind, great sushi quality, atmosphere was ok.

I went there for the first time today with my husband, my cousin, and her husband. We found it online and wanted to try out the tablet system. (It's a one-hour drive.) The ambiance inside was very nice, but the rest was unfortunately unsatisfactory... The photos of the dishes are either completely unappealing or blurry, or you can't even tell what it actually is from the name. The selection of dishes is very limited, and there are only a few options that seem truly appealing. I paid about €65 for two people and was overall quite dissatisfied. Especially since we were kicked out at 10:40 PM with the explanation that they were closing. After I mentioned that the sign outside said they were open until 11:30 PM Monday to Saturday, they replied that it was only like that on weekends and told us to leave. Unbelievable, never again 👎🏼

My wife, my sister-in-law, and her husband and I went there for dinner. It took an hour to get there and we wanted to relax and unwind. The food was okay, as was the atmosphere. However, the service was absolutely terrible. Towards the end, at 10:40 p.m., they came up to us and told us to leave because they were closing. We replied that the sign said they were open Monday to Saturday until 11:30 p.m., but they said no, it was only on weekends. It's a shame!

Thank you to the super waitress who helped me as I was struggling to find somewhere to buy some take out food on a Sunday evening. The food was super healthy and DELICIOUS THANK YOU.

Cheapest quality! I've never eaten such bad fish and substandard meat. Even the German caviar was disgusting. We had to spit out the scallop. Disgusting Never again Service was okay

The waitress doesn't seem so enthusiastic. The quality of the food leaves much to be desired. It's not worth €30 per person.

Wow!!! The sushi is simply divine. The food is delicious. However, the staff is very busy, resulting in poor service. The ambiance is very nice.

Service was good; one employee with glasses was a bit unfriendly and lacked patience. The food was partly okay, but the sushi wasn't fresh, and the rice was unsalted and dry. The only positive aspect was the service with the robots.

As always very tasty, recently also a cute robot that brings food and drinks to the table

UNBELIEVABLE! You call 2 hours in advance for 1 person reservation, wait 30 MINUTES inside for them to find your RESERVED TABLE, and somehow they "don't have space anymore"... Horrible service!

So we were there for lunch, and I think it was terrible. The service was good, but that's it. The food comes very quickly, but then you have to ask yourself how long it's been sitting there. And that's how it tastes. Many dishes are missing from the lunch menu, like wakame or avocado maki. And the sushi is also inedible. It's not fresh, and you can tell it's been sitting there for a while. The chicken dishes were okay, though. Dessert is nothing special. For the price at lunch, around €17, it's OK. But being robbed for €6.50 for a bottle of still water is pretty painful. As far as I know, dinner costs around €25, and I would definitely not go back. A few years ago, this restaurant was very good; now, unfortunately, it's inedible!

The food was lousy for the price. Service was unfriendly. The iPad ordering system wasn't great either; it was constantly overloaded even though there weren't many customers.

The place is very nice. But the food is so little and tastes absolutely nothing.

Lunch with colleagues Ordering via iPad, 8 servings and (in our case) 8 orders per person. If you don't eat something or send it back, you pay 1 or 2 euros per "unit," which I don't think is bad. The quality is mediocre; the plastic plates on which the appetizers/units were served bothered me. I was also not entirely sure that the pictures when ordering sometimes looked different than what was actually served, and I didn't really know how many appetizers were in each unit. Instead of 2 dumplings (gyoza), I suddenly had 6 or 8 in front of me, which weren't particularly good. The concept isn't bad, but in my opinion, a bit too complex or uninspiring for a casual meal. The quality of the food was rather mediocre, but OK. The ambiance was more like a train station concourse, and I didn't like it. In the end, I paid 25 euros for a lunch menu (AYCE) with 0.5 liters of water. Just within the limits, it definitely wasn't worth more than that.

Complete nonsense. The staff is just unfriendly.

The service was bad, and the food was too salty. I had to drink water all night and suspect they used too much Glutamat. Not coming back.

We came to all you can eat for lunch. Miso soup was okay. Gyoza and lachs nigiri were not bad. There is very little variety for all you can eat, especially sushi, the food is not tasty. It is surprising that there is no yuzu and edamame. We will not come again and I do not recommend it for dinner.

The service was rather average. After the meal, I got home with severe bloating and diarrhea. I could barely sleep all night. Unfortunately, it wasn't a good experience.

So, I was there this evening, and the food was cold. We ordered tempura, and it was cold even though it seemed fresh. We felt like we were being watched, and for 60 euros for two, it was very expensive. We didn't get full. The chicken was black, and the avocado was also black and squashed. We got sushi with salmon, and it was warm and smelled. (So, it's not my recommendation.)

Unfortunately, the service there and the feeling of being welcomed as a guest are misplaced. The food is served rather carelessly. It's a shame, because we were really looking forward to it, but we won't be coming back. The food itself was okay.

Sushi Togo; we had, among other things, maki

Hello everyone, I would like to share my impressions from my last visit to this place. It was my first time there, and I was with my girlfriend. I used to walk past it often, see lots of people inside, and think it must be a great place – unfortunately, I was disappointed. From the outside, everything looks very good – the design and atmosphere inside are really nice. But ultimately, you go to such places to eat well – and that's exactly where the problem lies. The table we were seated at was dirty and not cleared. The tablet ordering system is a good idea in itself, but unfortunately, the implementation is very poor. The photos of the dishes are either completely unappealing, blurry, or, for about 30% of the dishes, nonexistent – ​​often, you can't even tell what it is from the name. The selection of dishes is very limited, and there are only a few options that look particularly appealing. The rice clearly showed that it had been prepared for a long time – it was hard and dry. I paid about €65 for two people and was overall quite dissatisfied. Perhaps others had better luck, but unfortunately, my impression was not positive.

Food was subpar. I know it was an all you can eat buffet but the food lacked flavor and salt and the beef/steak was extremely tough. The shrimp was watery and the steam pieces were tough, but they also seemed to be cut with the grain instead of against it, so it was super chewy. Wait staff didnt speak german. One waitress spoke broken german at best, which was super difficult when she explained the iPad ordering. Also, this might be kind of petty, but they were extremely stingy with the napkins. This proved to be a bigger issue because none of the shrimp was shelled and your fingers got pretty messy after having to shell all the shrimp. Also, quick note for allergy for sufferers, the fried sushi, which contains chicken also contain avocado, but this was not listed on the ingredients list. Braised beef was ok but also dry. Lamb chop was probably the best menu item

Some foods taste better, but not all. It's a great offer if you have buffet lunch except Sunday or public holidays. It is still a good value for money for people who can eat 8 rounds of food orders.

First of all, there isn't much choice and the food arrives cold. It's not fresh! The service is okay, but the staff are very unfriendly! Every time I go there, I regret it and won't go back. The atmosphere is okay.

A truly disappointing visit. We went there for the all-you-can-eat sushi – and that was unfortunately a huge mistake. The quality of the food was abysmal: the fish tasted old, the rice was mushy, and much of it was simply inedible. We felt sick for hours after eating – and that's unfortunately no coincidence; it clearly speaks volumes about the questionable freshness and quality of the ingredients. The only positive thing: the staff were friendly, the service was fast, and the ambiance was okay. But that unfortunately doesn't salvage the overall impression in the slightest. If you don't want to risk your health or your appetite, you should avoid this restaurant.

I've been a frequent customer since it opened. Unfortunately, the service, quality, and friendliness have deteriorated over the years. It's a shame, I always enjoyed it.

I've been there several times. The selection is large and the concept is clever. The food arrives hot at the table. Unfortunately, everything only comes with sweet and sour sauce. Choosing a sauce isn't possible or costs extra. It's a bit of a shame. The number of rounds and 5 tokens per round are nice. Unfortunately, if several people at the table order the same thing in one round, everything comes on one plate. Beef is generally not recommended; it's usually tough. Chicken and duck are very tasty. All in all, a solid 4 stars. I can highly recommend it.

Delicious😋 Affordable, wide variety, comfortable dining environment

The food came quite quickly after ordering, Unfortunately the service was unfriendly, so only 1 star for the service. The taste of the food was very mixed, we didn't have to have it a second time...

Very exceptional food in a great atmosphere. Any time.

Very good quality sushi and all the other dishes were great too. Unfortunately, 3 items ordered in the first round didn't arrive. Problems with the tablet cost us a lot of time. Here you have 2 hours for 8 rounds of 5 items each... whether it's sushi, salads, grilled skewers or other delicacies. The freshness is convincing right up to dessert. One point deducted from the service because unfortunately we were often noticed but ignored or forgotten. For example, with the problem with the tablet. The ambience itself is chic and appropriate... but there is hardly any space to get between the tables and if you want you can follow other people's private conversations without any problems. Unfortunately everything is pretty cramped. Nevertheless, I would definitely recommend Akoya thanks to the delicious food 👍🏼

Worst buffet ever, very overpriced and food options is limited, dry and stale. Do NOT come, you WILL regret. Drinks are not included in the buffet and overpriced. Absolute scam of a restaurant. Restaurant staff are tired and annoyed of customers and wish they could stop working here.

Staff very unfriendly. It was my first time there and I was greeted and treated very unfriendly. When we were eating we were constantly looked at strangely. When we asked for something to be served she looked at us angrily and finally gave us one. I'll never go here again too unfriendly. NOT RECOMMENDED

+Nice restaurant, lots of seats +Very quick and friendly service +Grilled food was delicious +Large selection of good cocktails +Delicious desserts +Nice presentation of the food -Table and especially table mats could be renewed -Sushi didn't taste fresh -Only a few own creations, somewhat boring food combination -Very pleasing to the European palate, personally I would like more courage to be more authentic -Sauces cost €2 extra, but not sashimi 🤷

I've been there twice and the food was very tasty both times. The problem was that out of the 5 people who ate the food on both occasions, 4 people were sick the night after. I would really like to recommend the place because the service was good and the food was delicious, and maybe we were just unlucky, but it was probably the last time I went there after the experience the night after.

The service was completely bad. There was only one small slice of ginger. The table was piled up with plates and bowls and there was no time to clear it.

Very nice service but unfortunately the quality of the food leaves a lot to be desired

From service to food, top! Absolutely cannot understand the negative comments. The staff is super friendly and helpful. The food is great and there is a lot to choose from. Highly recommended! Always my pleasure

BOTH of our drinks were cleared away half full, nobody was motivated to clear anything away beforehand, the table was completely full of empty glasses and plates... the restaurant had 4 occupied tables at the time. In each order, 2-3 dishes were missing. The meat was hard and everything looked like it was left over from the day before, the kimchi and the shrimp were gray, so we decided not to eat it. The napkins were also torn away during the meal and not replaced. Unfortunately, Akoya has completely neglected it and for the price you can't get anything better away. Maybe you should also address the behavior of the employees or increase their salary so that there is more motivation and you don't have the feeling of not being welcome.

The food is very tasty. You can order 8 x 5 dishes. You can't really eat that much. The service is very good. It's a bit noisy in the surrounding area, but not disturbing.

Excellent evening with the finest sushi etc. Can only be recommended. All you can eat of course.

Delicious sushi and small warm dishes. Good service. That was once! Went there with a friend yesterday at lunchtime, not too busy. It started with us wanting a separate tablet because we have different eating speeds, which forced us to order together because there is a 10-minute break after an order. This was rejected by the service as not feasible. Among the sushi variations there is a crunchy roll that used to be very good, but now it was a tough, cold thing. The passion fruit spritzer we ordered only had homeopathic aromas and was just a water spritzer. The espresso afterwards was definitely an impertinence and only had the same name as this drink. For me the restaurant is history, which is a shame.

Went to Akoya at the weekend for a long time. Since we didn't have a reservation, the waitress was in a bit of a bad mood. We got our seat and the tablet to order quite quickly. You have a total of 2 hours in which you can order 5 dishes in 8 rounds. After the first two rounds we noticed that some dishes simply didn't turn out. This got worse from round to round, so that after 2 hours we only had 5 rounds with warm dishes, over half of which never arrived at the table. The service staff was made aware of this in between, but that didn't help. At the end the woman also wanted us to pay the full amount, even though we had hardly eaten anything. After the boss was called and she just said “I don’t know anything, I can bring food now” they agreed on a voucher after some back and forth. After the rest was paid, the receipt flew into the middle of the table despite an outstretched hand with only a dirty look and absolutely disrespectful behavior. This was DEFINITELY the last visit to Akoya, and I would recommend everyone to avoid this place and find a decent all you can eat place. Ordering via tablet isn't worth it, the taste of the food isn't a sensation, it's more in the lower segment, and the service is absolutely horrible and unfriendly.

Nice restaurant with an ordering system via iPads on the tables. Ordering works very well and the orders come to the table quickly. In terms of quality, the sushi in particular cannot compete with “real” sushi restaurants, where the sushi is freshly prepared. Other dishes were more convincing. The All u can eat is limited to 8 orders with 5 (mini) dishes each. That's clearly enough to fill you up, but it's not really "all" you can eat. In terms of price, the whole thing isn't exactly cheap at almost €30 per person - although drinks are of course not included. Overall, visiting Akoya is a special experience and it's fun to try your way through the dishes. But there is still room for improvement in terms of quality.

He has a good attitude towards white people, but he is really like that towards Chinese people.

It's slowed down a bit but I still enjoy going

Akoya in Karlsruhe offers an all-you-can-eat dining experience with a modern twist. Instead of a traditional buffet, diners order via tablets directly from their tables, selecting from a wide range of dishes including sushi, grilled items, and various Asian specialties. This system allows for up to eight ordering rounds, with a maximum of 10 dishes per round, ensuring that food is freshly prepared and promptly served.  Patrons have praised the quality and taste of the food, noting the efficiency of the tablet-based ordering system. The ambiance is described as pleasant, and the staff generally friendly and accommodating.  However, some guests have raised concerns. The pricing, especially during weekends, is considered by some to be on the higher side. Sushi variety is also very limited for such a high cost. And the hot sake, for example, barely allows for 1.5 “shots” in the small container provided and half filled. Additionally, while the tablet system is convenient, first-time users might find it a bit confusing without proper guidance. It’s also important to be mindful of food waste; some establishments implement charges for excessive leftovers to discourage wastage.  For a positive experience at Akoya, consider visiting on weekdays when it’s less crowded and prices might be more favorable. Familiarize yourself with the tablet ordering system to make the most of the diverse menu. Be cautious with portion sizes to avoid unnecessary leftovers, and if you have any questions or need assistance, don’t hesitate to ask the staff.

Bottomless! I reserved a table a week before Valentine's Day so I could take my girlfriend out... I arrive at the restaurant and unfortunately find out that no one has written down my reservation. When I talked to the waitress, no matter what I said, she always said: "No reserving 7 p.m. only 7:30 p.m." After I explained my situation to her, it obviously annoyed me a bit and the situation was now bad DID SHE JUST RUN AWAY AND GO CLEANING.... In general, I can understand that mistakes like this happen sometimes, but the fact that I didn't even get an apology really upsets me. All in all, I will never enter this store again.

We called them 10 times before leaving the house but they didn't answer the phone. As we left there was a very strict lady at the door. She said the store was full and left the store.

Always worth a visit and very tasty 😉

Unfortunately no longer recommended. Most of the service is not friendly. With all you can eat you get to eat what you didn't order. Meat not raw in places. Other dishes still half frozen. There are leftover food and receipts everywhere on the floor. The tables aren't really clean either It's a real shame, I always enjoy being there

Still good, but the food was better a few years ago.

Were there for the first time today. The food is very good. The food was warm and the portions were sufficient. The service is friendly but somewhat inhibited and reserved due to language difficulties. The price is ok, the drinks are a bit too expensive. Still a clear recommendation. We will definitely come back despite the 30 km journey.

We went to AllYoucanEat yesterday and it was delicious. There are 8 rounds of 5 portions each that you can order. You can order every 10 minutes. 2 hours time. During the meal we always looked at what we would have next. Or after eating. Simply order via tablet. Food comes quickly. Nice service. We liked it. Only the tables are a bit narrow. But there's no reason not to come back and we'll definitely do that.

Very tasty food. My favorites are of course the sushi variations. You can also get meat and salad there. Dessert was also very tasty. We've never made it to Round 8/8 at AllYouCanEat.

The Akoya Sushi & Grill restaurant is highly recommended! The all-you-can-eat concept via tablet makes ordering easy and convenient. The food is served quickly and fresh, which creates a great atmosphere. The food is delicious, the quality of the ingredients is impressive, and the selection is impressive - from sushi to hot dishes to desserts, there is something for everyone. Particularly noteworthy is the friendly staff, who are always attentive and helpful. Another plus point is the price-performance ratio: the buffet is cheaper in the morning than in the evening, but there is a slightly smaller selection during the day, which is still completely sufficient. Akoya is a real highlight for lovers of sushi and Asian specialties - I've been a regular for a long time.

Good food at a fair price. All-you-can-eat is implemented here with an iPad ordering system, which in my opinion seems much more high-quality than a buffet.

Unfortunately, the quality has never been massively lost again over the years... Sushi completely full of rice with a hint of fish just as an example... The remaining dishes were an imposition. I never want to badmouth anyone, but if you want to take advantage of the win all you can eat offer, it's different everywhere better off.

Very impressive restaurant, very courteous service, fresh, delicious food, good value for money

I often go there for good all you can eat food in Karlsruhe, the table service makes it very relaxed

once you get comfortable with tablet orders. That's really great...and the food was delicious! 😋🍀👍

So service wise it's quite good because one of them is very nice and fast. Ordering system also works. So now to the bad part, unfortunately the food. Sushi was bought ready-made from Gott from Rewe. Food wasn't regularly fresh and meat and everything else wasn't seasoned at all lol. And every second dish has sweet and sour on it. Unfortunately, hearty food is not the strong point here ahahahahahah. But the buttermilk is king and ice cream is of course awesome

Lunch in the restaurant. Menu only with ready-made combinations, no detailed menu to be able to choose individual dishes - a shame. Unfortunately, eating was not recommended, sushi from the fridge instead of freshly prepared - that's actually not possible (especially with sushi/maki that should be crispy because it's fried when it's cold in the fridge, it just doesn't taste good anymore). Ambiance is ok, really quite Chinese. I won't visit again.

Best no comment! I'm not going there anymore.

With all you can eat, the ordering process is very easy and works well. Only problem: The food is far from good. Sushi initially consists of 70% rice, and the trend increases with each subsequent round... Sauces and breading are used so generously that it's not the satiety that makes you sick, but the fat and sugar. Anyone who has ever eaten reasonably good sushi will have the horror. Rewe To-Go sushi lovers could barely cope with this. Overall, a good concept with the right ambience, now all that's left to do is make the food taste good ;)

Never again!!!!!!! I had high expectations for my visit to this all-you-can-eat restaurant, but was unfortunately disappointed. The selection of food was limited and the quality left a lot to be desired. Many of the dishes tasted bland and were not freshly prepared. The sushi was dry and the Asian dishes were often cold and unseasoned. Chicken balls were absolutely horrible, let alone the beef fillet pieces like 10 year old tires. The service was also unsatisfactory. The service was inattentive and we had to wait a long time for our drinks. In addition, the cleanliness in the restaurant was poor - dirty tables and dirty dishes didn't exactly contribute to a pleasant atmosphere. For the price I expected much more. Unfortunately, I cannot recommend this restaurant and will not eat here again.

To be operated digitally via tablet, there is a large selection to choose from and it is served. Food is delicious until my stomach is full to the brim. I'd love to come back...

Concept aimed at all-you-can-eat. We didn't like the sushi here and couldn't finish the package we ordered. Worn furnishings.

Eating Solala, very unfriendly to our English guest and also tore his pants on a protruding nail on one of the benches. Being there once is enough.

Ambience is quite okay. Some of the dishes are tasteless and do not come as what they are described as. The grilled squid is not grilled. The images on the tablet are very unsightly. So there is still a lot that can be improved here.

All you can eat with a tablet sounds good at first: no crowds, better quality and no waste. But in practice the price-performance ratio is not right. On the one hand, you are only allowed to sit for 2 hours, but you can only order every 10 minutes and then the food arrives with a delay. Sometimes not at all. That's why you order more food, which may not taste good. Since you are penalized if you don't eat, the father of the family is allowed to choke down the children's 10 vegetarian sushi and noodles with eggs at the end. Of course, drinks cost a lot extra.

Price/performance fits. Unfortunately, the beef is a bit tough for the third time - not a recommendation. Otherwise, fast service and cleanliness.

Unfortunately no decent vegan options with tofu on the menu. Otherwise only dishes with vegetables for vegetarians/vegans. This is a shame because of the many uses of tofu in various dishes. The waitress looked at me in shock after I asked if you could put tofu in the sushi.

Service underground. We came in, sat down and were asked if we wanted the all you can eat. two wanted it and two wanted the normal card. Nowhere did it say that the normal card doesn't work. We had to discuss it for 20 minutes until it was okay for us to do it that way. Then the prices on the menu were increased and we were shouted at. Food was okay but nothing special. Nevertheless, the restaurant has a nice atmosphere.

The bad Asian food .dirty greasy whole place. Staff rude supposedly don't give any answer when asked.

Absolutely recommended. Modern Asian restaurant, you order with a tablet that stays at the table so you can reorder at any time. Within a very short time, small bowls with various delicacies arrive. Very good value for money!

First of all, it should be mentioned that this review refers to subjective impressions and experiences and I have not seen the kitchen or the preparation, but we go out regularly and have high-quality Asian food. Which brings with it a certain amount of previous experience in good cuisine. We've eaten there several times over the years because we just wanted to give the place a chance, but the quality fluctuated each time, from "quite okay" to "really good." But our visit yesterday was just "absolutely bad." - Sushi seemed like it had been prepared ahead of time, was slightly dried out and definitely not fresh... - Gray broth came out of the mushrooms we ordered, either because they weren't fresh or they weren't cleaned properly before processing. - In general, all grilled foods, from meat to vegetables, all tasted the same, as if the grill surface had not been cleaned once between meals. - The chicken balls that were made from minced meat were still RAW inside!!!! - the sesame balls weren't fried long enough and were just soggy - The service delivers the individual plates with the table notes IN the dish and then removes them from the sauce or other ingredients beforehand. Aside from the fact that I don't want any pieces of paper left in my food, the waiter also fingers around in said food every time I fish it out. - Some portions have recently had coriander in the dish, but this is not declared in the menu, which is unfavorable for me because I am part of the population for whom coriander tastes like soap. I wanted to kindly point out to the service that this should be declared in the menu in the future, but they didn't understand a word. People didn't even know what "cilantro" was. In short, I haven't been as disgusted by a visit to a restaurant in a long time as I was here, so I stopped eating early and left. Unfortunately, the larger selection of dishes cannot hide the poor quality. And the increased price on the weekend of €30 per person is just audacious considering the bad food. Unfortunately that was our last visit and we prefer other restaurants again.

Well, I had something completely different in mind for a 4 star restaurant. The restaurant was almost empty, there were maybe 4 other tables occupied and the free tables had no reservations and that says a lot about a restaurant. The service was also just so-so. First of all, the menu, if you can even call it that, was just carelessly thrown laminated sheets of paper. Then if you don't take all you can eat, there are only large portions. I ordered sushi, which was ok, but the kimchi on the side was completely watery and bland. We were only told that the cash register was broken after we had already received our food and started. At the end, when we paid, we didn't get a receipt and she left immediately without saying goodbye or anything. If you ask me, it smells a lot like "I'll pocket the money myself" taxes who?? 🤯🤑

Not good food, several dishes I didn't want to eat after trying them. Duck is just tough and old, chicken balls that don't taste like chicken. The butterfish gave me an unpleasant burning feeling in my mouth, as did my companion. The rice in the sushi is not really fresh. It's reminiscent of the sushi you get in the discount supermarket, maybe a little better. The only thing you get here is a bunch of food. More than you can ever eat. I won't come here to eat again.

First and last time at AKOYA Karlsruhe. I honestly don't know where to start. I've never had to think about what's worse in a restaurant. The food or the staff. Let's start with the harmless things. An unfriendly woman, with no ambition to work, who first emptied our cola across the table without apologizing, let alone cleaning up the mess. The food was the culinary highlight or low point. Sushi that I could swear I've had at the Penny around the corner. “Beef fillet” where they probably accidentally fried an old shoe sole. Chicken that was so firm it almost bent my fork, and fish that makes me wonder if I'll have to go to the hospital tomorrow for food poisoning. I'm currently sitting here at the table and am currently googling whether I actually have to pay for food of such poor quality. All in all, today was definitely an experience, a terrible experience. I wish everyone who eats here a good immune system.

It was our first time eating sushi. Ambience and food were good. Explanation about ordering via tablet was good. Service rarely came but was always friendly. Something didn't fit once when ordering, but it was manageable. We will eat sushi again, but there are still several offers to discover in Karlsruhe. The highlight was the nighttime walk through the nearby park. 😉

Staff not hospitable, the lady with the glasses collects money and leaves. No goodbye or nice evening or anything like that. I won't come anymore.

Highly recommended. Nice staff and very good food. Top!

What can I say, it was just a disaster and not worth the money. I can only recommend you not to eat there. Sushi was soggy like it had been sitting there for hours. When I bit into the "meat" I felt sick and that almost never happens. It ruined my whole evening. Bottom line: never again

Unfortunately the taste was very bad. The quality of sushi is on the same level as ready-made sushi from Aldi or Lidl. Sticky, soft-boiled rice. Some of the sushi were not cut properly, so you would have to laboriously separate one from the other. Service was unfriendly. A plus point for quickly clearing plates. Unfortunately the visit was a flop. This restaurant has nothing in common with Japanese cuisine. Also left an unclean impression.

Service seats six. Metro goods warmed up in the microwave.

Overall good. It would be nice to have more Japanese specialties on the menu, not just sushi. But it tastes good and there is definitely enough time to get full.
