AKA was the best! Our server Roberto took amazing care of us, for my mom's 46th birthday! The food was great and reasonably priced. Will be coming back!

Aka was indeed 'Zen' experience! We've been planning to go for a while now, but finally managed last night. As they say was worth the wait. The place has a great vibe, the service was good and the food looked as superbly presented as it was to eat. The desserts are superb! Well worth a visit to enjoy with family!

Was in town for sports and stumbled across the lounge. AMAZING experience even just for drinks. Bartenders were attentive and responsive. Drinks were sharp. Presentation is great. The crowd is definitely hip and this is the new hot spot. Dancers. Entertainment. Music. The vibe is right.

Came here on a Sunday for Happy Hour. James was our server and super attentive. You cannot go wrong with any of the food on the HH menu! Everything is shareable with a nice helping. Highly recommend the shrimp tempura and orange chicken karaage! This establishment gives a nice Japanese ambiance; very will decorated.
