Visited them for lunch. The service was excellent. We tried their Octopus Dumplings, Spicy Ramen and Creamy Chicken Ramen. The Dumplings were perfectly cooked and served hot. Both the Ramens were good. The creamy chicken version was more on the milder side with 2 chunky pieces of chicken and a soft boiled egg. The Spicy Ramen was equally good made with Pork broth. Overall a great experience. Will visit again.

My husband and I love Akane. In fact we're regular customers. We love their food and the atmosphere. I usually order the Garlic Miso medium spicy and switch the Shoyu (pork) to chicken. There's nothing wrong with Shoyu I just prefer chicken and I love garlic Miso. My husband has had a lot of things off the menu- ramen and other offerings- and hasn't complained yet. The servers are amazing at their jobs and we'll likely continue to be customers as long as they're there.

I am visiting from California , my grandmother in law lives down the street so we came for lunch. The meat is tendered and very well seasoned. The broth ( I think I spelled it wrong) very smooth and flavorful. No one was there either or but the service was quick and food was fresh. The bathroom very well clean and tidy. Overall great experience.

In short Beautifully decorated, low-key, and welcoming. Great ramen and a few apps. In long I've been meaning to try this place for quite a while now, and finally made it in on a random, cold night. They're in a small strip mall on a busy 5-lane road, surround by a surprising concentration of interesting and worthy spots. The lot is tight but there's plenty of parking, especially in this corner--the big store next door closes around dinner time I think. Inside, there are a couple rows of tidy little tables, and some cool custom lighting built into the walls. They have big flatscreens, probably tuned to the game. Service is pleasant and unobtrusive, and right on point throughout. They're at your table immediately, and I almost had to call the guy back to finish ordering. They really move here! The takoyaki is legit, very flavorful. Tons and tons of bonito on top. A couple bites of tako were a bit on the chewy side but not unpleasantly so. I happily gobbled up every bite. I had the garlic miso ramen, bumped up to Hot on the spicy scale. It had great flavor but I wouldn't call it hot. Just a nice little tingle, at least for me. Nice toothsome noodles, good comforting broth, and a few nice add-ins. Prices are very fair here. It's a little ways from my place but I'd check it out again anytime, especially if I am over this way.

I keep my reviews simple. It takes a lot of effort to narrow your focus enough to do a small number of things excellently. Akane does exactly that. The menu isn't vast, but given how excellent the two dishes I had were, I am absolutely confident everything on the menu is at the same level. My wife, who takes cleanliness incredibly seriously, commented unprompted that the restaurant was beautifully decorated and immaculately clean without smelling like cleaning products, which is a feat in a small restaurant. But the food is the highlight. We ordered Tan Tan ramen and a Prawn Tempura rice bowl, both were incredible. Tan Tan was perfectly spicy without modification. The rice dish was savory and a little sweet. I can't wait to go back and try more on the menu

Akane Ramen is my kids favorite restaurant! They love the plain kids tonkotsu! I got the Spicy Tan Tan Ramen and my husband got the Tonkotsu Shoyu Ramen! Also, got the gyoza for appetizers! The flavor of the gyoza was perfect and it was delicious and crunchy! It was so good... that we ate it all up and forgot to take a picture! The flavor of the ramen was perfect and the protein portion was good! The servers were super nice. They would always check in with us and also make small conversation! I love supporting local businesses! Also, I really like how they keep the place super clean! The bathroom was also super clean!!! We love Akane and would go here regularly!
