Akira Back

An excellent dining establishment with the ability to see the amazing chefs working as well as the charming sights of Bangkok. The fusion Japanese menu offers an array of high quality dishes for all diners.

Great service and a very tempting menu. We tried the Truffle Bomb, Wagyu Short Rib, Tobata Tiger Prawn, and Crab Fried Rice, plus the Yuzu Blossom cocktail (sake + vodka). Everything was delicious—especially the crab fried rice, fragrant and perfectly cooked. Prices were reasonable. Will definitely be back!

Nothing negative to say..both the vegetarian and non-vegetarian options were absolutely out of this world! Loved every bite. A must-visit, and I’ll definitely be back! Spectacular!!!!

Review: A Culinary Journey at Akira Back, Bangkok Akira Back at Bangkok Marriott Marquis Queen’s Park offers a truly memorable dining experience, blending Japanese and Korean influences with a modern, international flair. From the moment you step inside, the restaurant's chic and sophisticated ambience sets a high standard. The decor is sleek and stylish, and the lighting is perfectly dimmed to create an intimate yet lively atmosphere. What truly elevates the experience are the stunning views of the city, which provide a beautiful backdrop for the entire meal. The service was impeccable throughout the evening. The staff were attentive, friendly, and knowledgeable, providing excellent recommendations and ensuring that every part of the meal was a pleasure. They struck the perfect balance between being professional and approachable, which made the experience feel even more special. Now, for a look at the inventive and delicious menu I enjoyed. Starters and Small Plates The meal began with a refreshing Cucumber salad. It was a simple yet elegant dish, with thinly sliced cucumbers served in a light, slightly sweet dressing. It was the perfect palate cleanser and a great way to start the evening. I also tried the Pork baby back ribs. These were a definite highlight. The ribs were tender and coated in a rich, Korean spicy glaze, topped with sesame seeds and chopped chives. The flavour was a fantastic mix of sweet and savoury with a touch of heat, and the meat simply fell off the bone. The signature Tuna pizza was a creative and unexpected dish. The base was a thin, crispy crust topped with thinly sliced tuna sashimi, which was a fascinating twist on a classic. It offered a delightful combination of textures—the crispness of the base with the silky-smooth fish—and was a dish that perfectly encapsulated the restaurant's fusion concept. Main Course For the main course, I ordered a bowl of Kimchi fried rice. This was a comforting and flavourful choice. The rice was well-seasoned with a generous amount of kimchi, providing that signature spicy and tangy kick. It was a satisfying and hearty dish that showcased the Korean influence on the menu. The Perfect Storm maki roll was a stunning creation, both visually and in terms of flavour. It featured a tempura shrimp at one end, adding a satisfying crunch, while the roll itself was topped with salmon and a savoury sauce. The combination of textures—the soft rice, the crunch of the tempura, and the creamy filling—made for a truly fantastic roll. Dessert To finish the meal, I had the Honey yogurt panna cotta with coconut ice-cream. This was an artistic and delicious conclusion. It was a beautifully presented dessert in a glass, with the smooth, tangy panna cotta providing a lovely contrast to the sweetness of the fresh berries and the creamy, refreshing coconut ice-cream. The combination of textures and flavours was superb. Overall, my experience at Akira Back was exceptional. The ambience, service, and, most importantly, the dishes were all top-notch. It's a fantastic choice for anyone looking for a fine dining experience that pushes the boundaries of traditional Asian cuisine.

I’ve been here several times, and as always, it was a great experience. Went here for a friend’s birthday lunch. The food was very tasty — fresh ingredients, flavorful dishes, and cooked just right. The meat was tender, the fish and sashimi were fresh, and the signature pizza was excellent. Even the vegetable dishes were delicious. Ann and Peach, who served our table, were really friendly. We had a great time and my friend enjoyed the day
