| - Came back for another date night with the hubby without a reservation this time but we were seated quickly after a short 10 min wait. With their revised (very lengthy) menu with much of the focus on their sake offerings, we took a lonnnnnggggg time browsing through the Chinese only explanation menu. Most of the menus were listed in English but all the excerpts were in Chinese which was not problematic but certainly not ideal.
We ended up ordering 6 oysters special (yum! at $18), a seaweed salad (decent), 22 pc sashimi platter of chef's choice (pretty good at $55) and shared their donkotsu ramen ($11). With 2 - 10oz hot sakes, the meal went down very smoothly.
The selection of the fish for the sashimi platter was very good and included the usual salmon, squid, scallops, shrimp, octopus (very tender), uni, otoro...etc. All the fish were fantastically fresh and we were very happy with this offering.
The donkotsu ramen was also quite good, very flavourful broth without being too heavy with two excellent pieces of chasu on top.
All the food offerings were very good and we'll be back to sample more of AKA-ONI's food soon.
