“ Hands down, one of the best dining experiences I’ve ever had at Akira Back! The recommendations were spot-on, and every dish was a masterpiece. The tuna pizza is an absolute must-try—those tiny bites pack an explosion of flavor! The sushi was incredibly fresh, and the eggplant miso was next-level, perfectly balancing sweet and savory. The Wagyu beef paired with mushrooms was a divine combination, so rich and delicious. The scallops, cooked to perfection with a bold ginger flavor, melted in my mouth. The signature drinks were phenomenal, adding a wow factor to the meal. To top it all off, the chocolate cake was the perfect finale. The service was impeccable, with staff attentive to every little detail. Akira Back is a mind-blowing experience that I highly recommend! ”

“ If you're in Dubai, Akira Back is an absolute must-visit. The food is nothing short of extraordinary – every dish bursts with flavor, creativity, and finesse. It’s one of those places where you savor every bite and don’t want the experience to end. From the sushi to the signature mains, everything is executed to perfection. The service is top-notch. The staff is professional, attentive, and well-versed in the menu, always ready to offer recommendations or pairings. You feel genuinely looked after from the moment you walk in. The atmosphere is just as memorable as the food – dim, moody lighting sets the tone, a live DJ provides an energetic yet sophisticated soundtrack, and the view from the windows is breathtaking, especially in the evening. It's the perfect blend of modern luxury and vibrant ambiance. If you’re in Dubai and appreciate high-end dining with a stylish twist, Akira Back should be at the top of your list. ”

“ Dinner at Akira Back was a hit. The sushi, tacos, and octopus tempura were packed with flavor, and the wagyu fried rice and salmon were just perfect. Ended with dessert that was as beautiful as it was delicious. Amazing atmosphere and service too definitely worth it. ”

“ We had such a wonderful time dining here! The restaurant has a beautiful and elegant vibe with a warm, cozy interior and just the right touch of luxury. The ambiance felt inviting and thoughtfully curated, with great music playing in the background that really enhanced the overall experience. We were seated indoors, but still got to enjoy the stunning sea view through the large windows – a perfect setting for a relaxed evening. The service was top-notch – attentive without being intrusive – and the menu was well-balanced, offering a variety of flavorful dishes without feeling overwhelming. Every dish we tried was fresh, beautifully presented, and cooked to perfection. The desserts stood out too – rich yet balanced, sweet without being too heavy. It was a lovely experience from start to finish, and I’d definitely recommend visiting if you’re looking for a spot that’s both refined and welcoming. ”

“ An unforgettable culinary experience! From the moment we arrived at Akira Back, located in the luxurious W The Palm hotel, we were warmly welcomed by name, a personalized touch that set the tone for exceptional service. The entrance takes you through a stylish lounge bar, where you can watch the bartender craft refined cocktails. The breathtaking view of the Palm Jumeirah is simply stunning, especially from the beautifully designed terrace. The staff is extremely attentive, professional, and genuinely responsive to our preferences. A particularly clever detail: due to the dim lighting, which adds to the ambiance but makes reading the menu a bit tricky, we were provided with small clip-on reading lights — a thoughtful and elegant solution. The dishes are true works of art, both visually stunning and bursting with flavor. The fusion of Japanese and Korean cuisine is masterfully executed. You can even watch the chef at work in the open kitchen, adding a dynamic and engaging element to the experience. There are also two private dining rooms available for a more intimate setting. I highly recommend Akira Back to all lovers of fine dining and unique culinary experiences. I will definitely be coming back. ”

“ First time at Akira Back Dubai and it feels like stepping into a rooftop retreat with one of the best views of Palm Jumeirah. The design is modern and stylish which makes the whole place special from the start. The menu is Japanese with Korean influences and every plate feels bold and creative. If you are not sure what to order the miso black cod is the dish that really stands out. We took photos and videos to show the view and the atmosphere. Take a look before you visit. ”

“ I can write an essay about how amazing this place is! Yes, the restaurant continues to impress us with its spectacular menu for food and drinks. Japanese cuisines curated to its finest version. My son claims that this place offers the best Japanese food in the world :-) Vegetarians worry not, as they have an exclusive menu for you too! The must tries are tuna pizza, sake sake rolls, spider rolls (veg) and tofu dishes. Other items are also delicious. I had ordered the special tequila drink on the menu. The staff from the bar named Viraaj specially visited our table to explain the two day process of preparations that go into making the base of the drink. Highly intriguing! Also, a special mention of Ave who assisted us with our orders. She understood our requirements and suggested the best in the menu. Special shout out to the Chefs who offer such amazing dishes with superior quality and impressive presentation. Will be an honour to meet the great man, Chef Back one day, to thank him personally for creating such a delightful collection of food items for us :-) ”
