Akayu in Portlaoise

An absolute amazing spot in Portlaoise, the food was delicious, the staff were nice and very attentive to our needs! Definitely highly recommend!

Today was my first time at Akayu there was a very lovely waitress called Valeria. Who gave me a really good suggestion of smoked salmon. It was delicious! I would highly recommended getting it!!

I come to this restaurant around once a month for lunch, and have been doing so for around 2 years. Consistently good food !

Great staff, unbelievably tasty food, beautiful place and a lot of consideration to one's dietary requirements 💯

I have dined in Akayu many times. The food and service is always very good.

Delicious food and amazing service. Food is so fresh and just perfect and staff are so friendly. Will absolutely return to try other dishes

I have to preface this as someone who travels to Japan very often that I would never expect the same levels of food here as I would in an establishment in Tokyo. The ramen here isn't the best, but the other dishes are an absolute delight. The gyoza is some of the best I've ever had in Ireland and the Ebi Tempura was absolutely to die for. The Sushi was as expected from an Irish-Japanese; a bit overpriced but still quite tasty. It's a great restaurant and worth visiting, if you stay away from the Ramen. The staff are very friendly and the service was excellent in a very cosy, relaxing atmosphere too.

A friend brought me to Akayu about 2 years ago and I can safely say this is now my favourite place to dine out. The food is always delicious and the staff are so warm and friendly. Highly recommended this little gem. 👌

Stopped of in portlaoise on the way back from the cork jazz festival last week. I went for the beef Ramen. Enjoyable

I recommend this place 100% The best ramen I've tasted in Ireland, the prices are normal Orders are made quickly, friendly staff and a good atmosphere in the establishment
