" I came here to try their spicy ramen after hearing such high praise. The Spicy Akira did not let me down! It was nice and flavorful, and I appreciated the generous portion. The only complaint I have is that the tables were a bit too close together. I could hear the conversations from adjacent tables. Other than that, I had a pleasant waitress and enjoyed my meal greatly. " (*Curated Review*)

" The ambiance is quaint, though a bit rushed when it is full. The food had its moments. The ramen was tasty, and not overly salty which I appreciated, but the pork was a little tough. The prices are reasonable, and I think it's a lovely place for casual dining. I would probably return but maybe during less busy hours. " (*Curated Review*)

" It was a pleasant surprise to find such great ramen in a small spot! I had the Takoyaki as an appetizer, which were delightful. My Spicy Tonkotsu Ramen was flavorful and had the right amount of spice. The waitstaff were attentive, and they checked on us regularly without being intrusive. A fantastic experience overall! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had an overall pleasant experience at Akira Ramen. The atmosphere was cozy, if a bit cramped. My Spicy Tonkotsu was creamy and satisfying. The service was friendly, but the wait was a bit longer than I expected. While the ramen was decent, I think there are more flavorful options elsewhere, thus wouldn't be my first choice. However, it was good! " (*Curated Review*)

" I came in expecting a solid ramen experience based on reviews but was slightly disappointed. The ramen was fine but didn't stand out compared to others I’ve had. The service, however, was good, and the place itself is quite cozy. I would lean towards going elsewhere next time, but it was fine for a quick visit. " (*Curated Review*)

Archived Reviews (209)

" I recently visited Akira Ramen with my friends, and while the food was good, I expected more in terms of flavor depth. The broth was flavorful but not as rich as others I've had. However, the service was quick, and the atmosphere was lovely—cozy and modern. I would suggest trying the Spicy Volcano Ramen if you're into a kick! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had high hopes based on the reviews, but my visit was just okay. The ramen was decent, but I felt like I could have made something better at home. The service was polite, but I felt neglected during peak hours. Maybe I’ll give them another chance later, but I wasn't blown away this time. " (*Curated Review*)
