Akira Ramen Izakaya - Rockville

Best ramen in DC ! The Akira ramen is a must ! So good with a lot of toppings and a delicious pork broth. The chachu buns are also really good and the meat is so tender. The chicken teriyaki arrived still boiling hot that gave it a really good smoked flavor. They also have great deals for the lunch. Can?t wait to come back and try others dishes !!

PHENOMENAL!!! The best ramen I have had in a long time. Akira Volcano ramen was soooo good, with a nice balance of spicy and tonkatsu flavor. All the ingredients were perfectly done! You will not be disappointed! Sushi rolls were also on point!

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.

I recommend the gyoza but not the ramen. The broth was too oily for my liking (you can see all of the excess oil in the photo). On the other hand, the gyoza were extremely delicious and flavorful.
