Jan 2026: Ramen and sushi here in a thoughtfully decorated atmosphere. The shrimp tempura is a great starter, rates an 8/10. The miso ramen was not that great though and was not hot enough, rates 6/10. Excellent service. Will try the sushi next time.

What a discovery and hidden gem in Frederick! Stopped here for lunch, and it turned out to be a next-level experience! From the stunning décor to the attentive service and absolutely delicious food — everything was top-notch. This is easily one of the best meals we’ve had, and we travel often as international foodies. Our server Ying was amazing, and the ambiance — including the thoughtfully chosen music volume — made the experience even more enjoyable. We’ll definitely be back soon for a full dinner experience!

We tried Akira Sushi because there was a good deal on Uber Eats — the fried cheese sushi roll was buy one, get one free. We also ordered the chicken ramen. Overall, everything was decent and mostly fresh. The ramen was definitely the highlight — the broth was flavorful and slightly creamy, and the fried chicken was served on the side so it didn’t get soggy, which was a nice touch. The sushi, however, was disappointing. It was just fake crab and cream cheese, fried — and costs $18.95 per roll, which is way too high for those ingredients, especially since the rolls were just normal size. At full price, it would have been almost $40 for two, which doesn’t match the quality or what the pictures online suggest. Glad we gave it a try, but if we order again, it’ll only be for the ramen.

I recently visited Akira Ramen & Izakaya and loved everything I tried. The Coco Sushi Roll was unique and packed with flavor — definitely a standout. The chicken teriyaki was perfectly cooked, tender, and had a great balance of sweetness and savory. I also had one of their ramen soups, and it was incredibly comforting with a rich, flavorful broth. The service was friendly and fast, and the overall vibe of the place was warm and welcoming. Whether you're in the mood for sushi, ramen, or a variety of izakaya dishes, this spot has something for everyone. Highly recommend — I’ll definitely be back!

This was truly an excellent dining experience. They have many different options for Ramen, Sushi, and Sake. They also have a spicy challenge that I think would have been cool to try if we didn’t have 2+ more hours to drive 😅 Our hostess & server were wonderful, attentive, & friendly & Corina gave good recommendations on the Sake! She was also very sweet & nice to talk to! And the Sake was delicious! I am not a big drinker but I will always try Sake because rice is one of the fermented grains I can tolerate! Sushi: Amazing - so flavorful, fresh, and lots of good textures all in one dish! The ramen was also perfect - not too spicy (when you find snot dripping out your nose when you’re eating I rate that as too spicy) but it wasn’t boring. Also their bathrooms are pretty cool! Love the te
