    My boyfriend and I have come to Akira Back multiple times over the past year and a half and every time we are continuously amazed by the food and service. Every dish we try is so good and the drinks are great as well. Definitely worth the price and we continue to enjoy dining there.

    Another unforgettable anniversary dinner at Akira Back—absolutely no regrets. The food was at its peak, showcasing impeccable flavor combinations and unique presentations that consistently deliver an EXCEPTIONAL culinary experience. Our waitress, though newer to the team, truly stood out with her exceptional service. She thoughtfully brought out the Tobanyaki and King Crab dishes first, perfectly addressing our hunger and satisfying our cravings before the flawless finish with our favorite menu item—the "Perfect Storm" roll. It was exactly that—a perfect storm of flavors. To make the evening even more special, we were treated to mochi on the house for our anniversary, which we greatly appreciated. We couldn’t resist ending the night with the fan-favorite birthday cake mochi from the "Off the Current Menu" selection. It was the perfect farewell to an extraordinary evening and a thoughtful touch of celebration. Thank you, Akira Back, for making our anniversary truly memorable.

    The food at Akira is always amazing! The service impeccable and this time we sat in the courtyard instead of inside and the ambiance is beautiful and noise level is much reduced so we can actually have a conversation without shouting. Highly recommend! One of the best restaurants in the area

    Great restaurant with high quality fish. The restaurant is consistent. I have been there a bunch. They swap king crab for the imitation crab which was delicious. Miso cod is a favorite.
