" I had an ok time at Akarui last week. The food was decent and the service was passable, but I felt like I was missing that warm and inviting atmosphere I read about. The menu had a variety of choices, but I think some of the dishes could use better seasoning. Overall, it’s a decent option in Omaha but not the best I’ve had. " (*Curated Review*)

" Disappointed with the quality of food at Akarui this time. The ramen was all right, but lacked the usual delightful taste I had in my previous visits. The boba tea, however, was still excellent and refreshing. It’s a great place to hang out with friends, but next time I’m sticking to the drinks. I’ll be back, just with lower expectations on food. " (*Curated Review*)

" Restaurant Akarui was a fun place to hang out with my friends. The service was prompt and friendly, adding to a really nice evening out. The ramen was delicious, and I loved the clear broth! I especially enjoyed how the ingredients felt fresh and well-balanced. It’s got a nice vibe for conversations too. A good stop if you’re in the area and looking for some great Asian cuisine! " (*Curated Review*)

" Overall, I had a great experience at Akarui. The atmosphere was chic and modern, and the ramen had a good taste, though I found it a bit on the salty side. The service was prompt, and the staff seemed truly happy to help. I would recommend this place to anyone looking for good Japanese food in town. " (*Curated Review*)

" My first visit to Akarui was pretty enjoyable. Ordered the pork buns and miso ramen, both of which were good but not great. I was hoping for a bit more complexity in the flavors. The waiting staff were very kind, but it did take a while to get our drinks. It’s a nice place overall for a casual meal in town, but it could use some refinement. " (*Curated Review*)

" Akarui is simply a hidden gem in downtown Omaha! I had the opportunity to try their new sushi roll creations, and they were phenomenal! Each piece was fresh, full of flavor, and beautifully arranged on the plate. The atmosphere is cozy and the staff are super friendly. I also appreciated how clean the dining area was. I can’t wait for my next visit to try more from their extensive menu! " (*Curated Review*)

" The experience at Akarui was delightful! My family loved the poke bowls; they were not only tasty but beautifully presented. The staff was attentive and the atmosphere felt lively yet comfortable. I highly recommend this restaurant, especially if you’re looking for a place that caters to both young kids and adults alike. Be ready for a small wait during peak hours, but it’s worth it for the food! " (*Curated Review*)
