Possibly one of the best Japanese spots in all of South Florida. The prime rib sushi roll was something like you’ve never tasted before. This place is absolutely unique. The tuna pizza for an appetizer was a game changer and like nothing you’ve ever had before as well. Cocktails were on fleek, the server was absolutely giving.

We had an amazing evening at Akura Back Restaurant. The food was absolutely outstanding — every dish was perfectly prepared. The wine list was impressive, with plenty of options for every taste and preference.
We had a small issue, but the managers handled it very professionally and resolved it quickly. A special thank you to Michael and Losan for their attention and excellent service — they truly made our evening special.

Absolutely the best in Delray. The concept is second to none! Amazingly delicious food that is unique and interesting which invigorates all the senses, but yet still so satisfying. The ambiance is truly elite, beautiful design, and great music to match. What puts Akira Back above all the rest is the top tier service. Michael is a connoisseur of all sorts and an expert in many realms. Shout out to Juliana as well. Congrats to the entire team from kitchen to FOH to support, I highly recommend treating yourself.
Edit: I went back again in the same week because it was so good. Matthew Moll is the epitome of class and a true leader. There’s no wonder why this place is so special. Val the bartender is just the cherry on top!

Located next to The Ray hotel.
Tuna pizza exceeds expectations despite misleading photos. Food is Pricey but worth it for quality. Portions are small. Bar seating had excellent service by Kelly. Sleek spot for a special night out.

This is one of those places where the flavors, the presentation, and the service always shine. Everything just feels right every time you go. And don’t leave without ordering the two must-haves: the tuna pizza and the short rib, they’re always a hit. It’s also a great spot for a double date, with the perfect mix of good food and a fun atmosphere. We always make reservation to go.

Fantastic experience. We were here for a work dinner and every plate looked like a piece of art. Things just melted. The Baked Crab Roll and Perfect Storm were good. Truffle Bomb is an experience. I tried my first tuna and sea urchin. Gosh, it’s one thing to eat food but this one is called relishing. A must to try in Delray. Reservation is recommended

What an amazing experience! We were walking by the restaurant, decided to stop by and see the menu, and ended up having one of the best Japanese meals of our life. Helvio the general
manager was the nicest person ever, treated us so well, we will get back there many times just for him, he gave the BEST suggestions for dishes, we tried all the ones that he suggested and loved them all! Matthew the director of food and beverages, treated us the best, what a team! The server suggested the best white Portuguese wine, thank you! We already shared this restaurant with several of our friends, and will go back many times.

Atlantic Avenue has stiff restaurant competition, so e proceeded with caution when heading the The Ray Hotel’s resident Asian cuisine spot with the founding chef’s namesake. Skip the suspense….Akira Back will have us back. All aspects kicked butt. Service was spot on, with shout outs to Mike the manager, Connor our server, and Ellie who was passionate about her presentations. There were no bad dishes. All the rolls were tasty (hot mess and protein rolls were exceptional). Everything is served as it is ready and in small portions, so order early and often. Great space, great food, great cocktails!

We’ve eaten here multiple times over the past few years and every single time they’ve been nothing short of amazing. They’re not a typical family friendly restaurant, but we did make an early evening reservation for my husband’s birthday dinner with our 2.5yr old daughter in tow. Our server was fabulous with her and made us feel very welcomed and comfortable. Aside from that- the level of cuisine you get here is what really keeps bringing us back. From the presentation to the taste ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Absolute favorite restaurant in Delray, and probably all of FL! Stephanie is our favorite server, remembers our favorite order and is always so friendly! All of the service there is exceptional, and the food is the best. The drinks are all amazing here, can’t go wrong with the cocktails, but the lychee martini is the best. Kimchi Butter edamame with the kimchi butter on the side, cow wow roll, and baked alaskan crab handroll are a few favorites and must get every time. They also have great seaweed salad with 3 different varieties. While it is very expensive, if you are going to splurge on dinner, I would say its worth it! I love this restaurant!
