This was a very unexpected dining experience. I had seen many reviews online but had never been here before. But when I suddenly saw it again, I wanted to try it. I arrived at almost nine o'clock and there were no tables, so I sat at the bar. It didn't matter where I sat when I was eating alone. But fortunately, the bartender Jina was a very nice person! She chatted with me during the meal and her smile was very contagious. She was really super beautiful! Our names are a bit similar, and she sent me delicious wine and very thoughtful desserts. The manager is also a person who makes you feel happy when you see him. This restaurant is very suitable for dating, the environment and food are good, and I will come often in the future. Recommend everyone to come

Excellent service. Very friendly. Food was phenomenal. We took our kids (unfortunately no sitter) but they were very accommodating.

Beautifully presented dishes, great attentive service and great ambience. This is a spot to bring someone to impress. It is a pricy place but that is to be expected by attached to a fancy hotel and also being the restaurant of a Michelin star chef

Really tasty food and incredible interior design! Each dish was thoughtfully presented and tasted so so good. We got about 6 dishes between 2 people and that was more than enough food. If there is one thing you must get, get the wagyu tacos!!!! They were spiced perfectly and so flavourful and juicy. Edamame was tossed in a savoury kimchi butter which added a little touch of spice. We also got the tuna belly sushi and wagyu nigiri with truffle (also so good!!). And sushi rice and salmon tataki. 10/10!

Celebrated a friend's bday. The restaurant was giving great vibes, beautiful decor and service was pretty good. Food was on the higher price point but the quality definitely shows through and presentation. The drinks were a hit or miss though. But overall a great experience.

If you're looking for a cozy place to celebrate a birthday with close friends, this is the ideal spot. The restaurant is called Akira Back, conveniently located in downtown, making it easy to get to. The service quality is an 8/10. Basically, all the dishes are delicious, but the best one and the best seller here is the tuna/mushroom pizza ($29). I had to order it twice. Next is the Wagyu Taco ($26), which I rate 9/10, it’s very tasty. The sushi dishes ($24) are also okay. The chicken with mashed potatoes is an 8.5/10. Even the drinks and other dishes are worth praising. The space isn't too big, just small, decorated like a cave but it looks very classy. The photo spots are amazing. Remember to tag your friends to plan a birthday gathering here!

I was looking for a restaurant for my birthday. About Akira Black there were many reviews and a good rating here. I liked the interior in the photos and how the dishes look, too. But when we entered the hall, it turned out to be much smaller than in the photo, with a low ceiling and extremely noisy. The waiters were very attentive and friendly. They tried to spend a lot of time for us. But unfortunately, this did not cover the fact that I waited more than 40 minutes for my food and the noise was very disturbing. Sometimes I didn't even hear what the waiter was saying to me. I ordered corn, but it turned out to be whole grain pancakes. My dish absorbed too much oil and I couldn't eat it. The crab was very tasty but a little spicy and small portion. The dessert was exquisite and interesting to taste. Due to the fact that we left the restaurant earlier and went to another one near. After spending 101$ we left restaurant hungry.

Really beautiful presentation of dishes and atmosphere. We stopped here for a light dinner on a Sunday night and they were able to seat us without a reservation. The service was very prompt and lovely. The food arrived quickly and each one was thoughtful. As a cucumber salad lover, I expected a little more flavor from this one so it was the only miss for me. Everything else was great. Many people were celebrating birthdays there so I guess it’s perfect for special occasions.
