    Creative menu and very good service! We had a terrific meal at Akira Back for my birthday. The server was personable and professional. The food was outstanding…lots of sushi and cooked options and everything we ate was delicious! The only negative is that the noise level inside is very loud but still worth it for the experience. Recommended!
