Amazing recommendation and it's easy to see why it's won such high accolades as Australia's best restaurant 2016. We decided to try a number of dishes and share between two people.
The first to arrive was the beef short rib and without any exaggeration was the nicest and most tender piece of beef I've ever eaten and subsequently was the winner of the night.
Next dish to come out was the kimchi pancakes. A simple dish done well with nice flavours.
Next we had the king prawn fried rice which while our least favourite dish in the meal was very tasty. Our meal ended on a high with the divine duck soup dumplings. Again easy to see why these won best people's dumplings.

Great food, service was poor, my water was never refilled even though I was sitting at the bar - had to request a second drink by waving down staff. We booked for our anniversary so I thought that we would get table seating but unfortunately we got the bar, maybe I needed to request a table ?? The icing on the cake was being told by the bartender that Australian wines are not good hmmm.
I have recommended many businesses and personal friends to Akiba and will continue to for the quality and experience of the food.
Great environment and outstanding service. Although the fusion style of food taste good but the portion is too small and pricy. The drinks are nice. But overall not very appealing... maybe on some special occasion I might want to go if my friends feel like it at the same time

It's a highly buzzy Japanese restaurant with a diverse clientele. If you don't mind sharing a table and sitting on stools this is a groovy place to be. Two courses and of four ordered were fantastic and two did not meet expectations. Service good. Give it a go.
The kingfish tastes special and delicious. Octopus with half-cooked egg is also good. Duck dumplings are just so so. Akiba's atmosphere is excellent but the drinks are a little bit expensive.
Good vege options, food is yum. Service inside is okay, much better outside (get a table out there if you can). Book book book. Agadeshi tofu - get it!
Fun a buzzing place, service is great. Cocktails are yummy and the food is like fine dining
