Akira

My wife and I stopped in as 1st time diners on a date night after having seen a movie at the AMC Voorhees. We chose Akira because of the existing Google reviews. The restaurant did not disappoint! Quality of the food was beyond excellent and the service was superb. The menu is varied, with many options at different price points. If you love sushi, as my wife does, this is definitely the place to stop for lunch or dinner. I opted for an item under "kitchen entrees" which was a delicious combination of flavors. As we ate, the restaurant was doing a significant take out business so it's quite popular. We sat at a standard booth but there is another side of the restaurant with hibachi tables. There is also a sushi bar where you can watch the sushi artists create.

We were looking for a quick bit to eat. We were very happy that the GPS suggested this restaurant. The food was very fresh, the staff was very nice and the atmosphere was perfect. I was also extremely happy they offered lunch special on the weekend!!! Family of 4 under $40 and there was a lot of food. If we are in the area again I will definitely make sure we visit and maybe try the hibachi next time.

Akira is always great. The sushi is on point, sashimi is delicately prepared and presented beautifully, rolls are good. Kitchen entrees I think I've almost had everything at this point. Some are better than others of course (ginger and scallion with protein of your choice is always a winner), but I've never walked away unsatisfied. The only part I can't speak to is the hibachi but the folks back there sure sound like they're having fun. Staff is attentive and the premise is clean.

The food was fresh and quickly served. The wait staff was very attentive and kept checking. Even though there was only one other table seated, they kept trying to clear the table which felt like we were being rushed even though that’s not the case. We wanted to stop in for hibachi but when we asked we were seated in the dining room. We asked again but it was difficult to understand, so we ordered since we were hungry. The food was very good, and the filet mignon was cooked perfectly. Next time I might get the udon noodles instead of the yaki soba. I will come back here for sure!
