Akira Ramen Izakaya - Rockville

Five Stars. Great ramen. I tried the Okonomiyaki as an appetizer. It was good. The Akira Ramen is awesome, love the sliced pork. If you like spicy try the Volcano ???? Akira Ramen. The menu has sushi too. Parking directly in front of the restaurant is limited so you may have to walk a little bit once you find a place to park. If it COLD out try to get a seat that is not next to the front entrance.

We were lucky to go inside and have a table with no reservation. The waitress was kind and helpful in showing us different dishes on the menu. The Shrimp Tempura Ramen was amazing! I wish they had miso soup broth for the ramen, but it was delicious. Lacked variety since it was mainly ramen and sushi on the menu, but that?s their specialty. Loved how they solely played bts and txt tonight.

Akira's a simple girl; she's good with the basics although she doesn't get too fancy. And when she's good, she's *great*. My go to is the Shrimp Tempura Ramen with extra Shrimp Tempura because life is too short to scrimp on shrimp. But just the other day I tried their Chashu Bun and the Okonomiyaki (Scallion Pancake) and WOW. I would 100% do that again. And again. And again My partner got the Yellowtail Belly Bowl with cold udon and was not a fan. I tried to warn him

The smallest rolls I've ever seen. It was a nice night, so I walked a little over a mile from my hotel to get some sushi. I asked if they'd included soy sauce with the tuna and salmon rolls. I should have checked. How much do we think they pay for the little soy sauce packets? I had to negotiate for two when I ??????? walked back. On the bright side, I got a little over four miles of walking. Now I'm hungry again.

So far, this is the best ramen place we've tried around the area! The ramen is tasty, we only added some salt according to our preference. The sushi are quite small in sizes but they're also good. And the gyoza taste amazing too. The place is always packed with costumers, atleast when we got there at 5:30PM.
