I met up with friends at Akira Ramen recently, and as always, I ordered my favorite—Akira Volcano Ramen soup. It never disappoints! The broth is rich, flavorful, and perfectly spiced, and the noodles have just the right texture.
The prices are very reasonable for the quality and portion sizes, and the service is consistently good—attentive, friendly, and never rushed. What I really like is that it’s also a great place to hang out with friends. We were able to relax,...
