AKA-ONI Izakaya & Ramen is a long-established Izakaya located in the Times Square Plaza, known for its quality food and lively atmosphere. The restaurant boasts a traditional Japanese decor with booths, curtains, and J-pop music, creating a memorable dining experience. Guests say the restaurant offers a good variety of food options and is not too crowded at lunch, making it good for large groups. The sashimi platter and the big thick pieces of ox tongue skewers are favourites, and the Hokkaido Uni is among the best. The yakitori is also great.
The standout dish is the Angus Beef done medium rare, which receives high praise. However, some menu items, like the Black Diamond "Roll" and the Oyster Bomb Roll, are hit-or-miss, with the former being too rich in texture. The complimentary ice cream, particularly the Taro flavor, is a delightful addition.
The restaurant is always bustling, so it's recommended to make a reservation. The service is excellent, and the servers are great at helping guests decide what to try from the daily specials. The overall atmosphere is upscale and authentic, and the selection of Japanese drinks, beers, and sakes is great. While the dine-in experience can feel a bit claustrophobic due to the limited space, the take-out option is just as satisfying. Overall, AKA-ONI Izakaya & Ramen is a must-visit for those seeking a taste of high-quality Japanese cuisine in a lively setting.
