The ambiance is gorgeous, the seating is awesome and comfortable, the staff is super sweet and helpful and the food takes an appropriate amount of time to be made. Overall though the food wasn't anything to write home about, worth trying once for the atmosphere. Great spot if you care more about getting a bit buzzed. Also disappointing that none of the menu items tell you what they are composed of so you have to ask.

Was hungry in Vegas and didn't want Strip food. And Ramen Aku hit the spot! Korean fried chicken was boneless! Very yummy. Interesting it had potatoes mixed into it. Loved my miso ramen. I tend to like a lighter broth so this was great. Loved the pork and egg. More than enough for me. About a 10 min Uber from the Strip! Service was great!

Aku Spicy Ramen (level 2)

Jazz was our server for our group of 6 and she was fantastic! Very attentive, helpful, and so friendly. We love her! :) There's plenty of free parking outside and the interior is clean. We love the decor theme and the story behind it. Moderate noise inside but you can still talk comfortably. The food was great but we do have some feedback. Alcohol prices were very fair and we appreciated that the glasses were chilled and pours were generous. Our group ordered takoyaki, fried gyoza, and several bowls of ramen. We all thought the ramen was about an 8/10 and flavors were good. The toppings are great (ramen egg was cooked perfectly and chashu was thick). We just wished the broth was much hotter in temperature. Overall we all enjoyed our lunch and would absolutely come again!

When you walk in you see a sign to wait to be seated. A lady told us she would be right with us and proceeded to talk to almost every table before coming over to seat us. The service did pick up once we were seated and I will say food comes out fast. The ambiance is fairly laid back, not very loud, considering its near UNLV. Not too bad. Now the food is where it started to fall a bit too quickly, or maybe we started to good with the chicken. The soy garlic chicken hit the table first and this was a bite of heaven. Super tender and amazing flavor. Great chicken to breading ratio and I loved the mixed of garlic chips. It also has potatoes to cover up the small amount of chicken on the plate though-sneaky. The Black Garlic Ramen: the broth is suppose to shine- and this truly truly tasted like water...with black specks of nothing- not even a pepper taste. The pork chashu...was flavorless- we took it out to try on its own and it was plain- put it back together and it was not it. It was also fairly tough for chashu. The noodles were also super super soft. Tiger Roll- the roll has shrimp tempura, avocado, and spicy tuna. The spicy tuna was just off tasting unfortunately. Overall I unfortunately don't see ourselves coming back unless changes are made. The Ramen and sushi which was primarily why we came were a huge miss. The chicken was a nice surprise, and it was the only saving gracep

Service was great and food came fast! The ramen was perfectly spiced but the pork could have been more flavored

Solid choice for food, the environment is super clean with fun decorations. Super bright environment. They only have ramen after 9pm. The broth was delicious, a lot of great flavors. The chicken was juicy, easy to eat and of course, crunchy. Needed food after arriving at the airport, not in the best area of town, but driving is fine. At night, it is slightly slow, but hostess was helpful and friendly. Tonkatsu ramen ($15) and black garlic ramen ($16). Added some spice, not spicy at all, very settled flavors. Noodles were chewy in a good way which I prefer. Definitely come check it out for your ramen cravings.

Stumbling into Ramen Aku was the best choice we made for our last day in Vegas. Jazz helped us choose the best Tapas to start, and everything about our meal was fabulous. The ambiance is really the sell here. We loved the little escape from the strip and a nice local place!

Birria Ramen...so good! I highly recommend the gyoza and sushi as well. Fresh and delicious. The staff were also very attentive and great!

Jas was our server and she was amazing. Very personable and had a bubbly personality. The food was amazing! I had the Aku Spicy Ramen. I got the 2nd level heat and was able to enjoy. Top tier Playlist in the restaurant. The next time I come visit my sister, I'm coming back!

I absolutely love this ramen place. It's decorated very nicely, Japanese themed. They have Service is good, helpful in explaining our questions with the menu. They have tables and also cool counter area to dine at. I had the Black Garlic Ramen and it was delicious. The broth is so good and good amount of pork slices. They have several toppings you can add as well. They also have appetizers, sushi rolls, and curry. I had a Mango Cream Soda and loved it. It is located in the Target Shopping Center on Maryland and Flamingo with lots of easy parking. I can't wait to go back!

We stopped by Ramen Tatsu for dinner to celebrate Children's Day since Japanese ramen is my child's…read morefavorite food of all time. We ordered the tonkotsu ramen with an added egg and a side of karaage. Everything came out piping hot and absolutely delicious. The chashu was incredibly tender, and the ramen egg was perfect both in flavor and texture... perfectly soft boiled. The karaage was also amazing... juicy, flavorful, lightly crunchy, and very well seasoned. The service was wonderful as well. The sweet and friendly Japanese ladies taking care of us made the experience even better. Their pricing was also very reasonable. Two bowls of ramen plus an appetizer came out to less than $40 before tip, which felt like a great value for the quality and portion sizes. They're located in a busy mall with lots of surrounding businesses, so I can definitely see this place getting packed during peak hours. Definitely worth the visit!

The takoyaki had a nice crisp to it; they seem on the smaller side, and there could've been a little more filling. I got the tonkatsu shoyu, and it was okay. The broth was a little bland the first few bites but then got a little too salty. The pork was tender but didn't have a lot of flavor. I added an egg, but it was overcooked, so that was disappointing.

A buddy really wanted to try this spot as he was recently getting really into the chef David Chang…read more We made reservations and decided to give it a try. It was an incredible dining experience, and I would certainly recommend it The restaurant is located in the lovely Cosmopolitan Casino. We had a couple pre-drinks at the Chandelier Bar while we waited for our reservation. When we arrived we only waited a few minutes for them to prepare our table. The restaurant was packed. There's a surprising number of tables/and seating options. The restaurant is elegant and trendy. The lighting is very intimate, but it adds to the ambiance The menu offers a variety of unique and intriguing Asian-American-style delicacies. David Chang is a renowned chef, and everything we tried was incredible. The pork belly bao buns were one of my favorites. We ended up getting a variety of plates and sharing. For drinks they have signature and classic cocktails, wine, beer, and non-alcoholic options The staff were incredible. Very efficient, professional, and friendly. Our food and drinks came out in a timely manner, and we were well taken care of Some tips: Definitely get a reservation. There is a chance that you will get a table as a walk-in, but not a 100% chance, and you will probably end up waiting a long time I would recommend doing what we did and grab a drink or two nearby while you wait I will say, there probably isn't a bad thing in this menu, but there also isn't much on here for the "picky eater." This is also a fine-dining Vegas experience, so, I wouldn't expect the most inexpensive prices. I wouldn't worry about any of that and just try as much as you can, share, and you will have an amazing time Cheers!!

Vegas price for dirt flavor food…read more I've had this restaurant 4 years ago and was largely disappointed. I went this time again with my spouse and we both got a Tonkotsu Ramen, Pork Belly Bun, and a Yuzu Lemonade. The ramen tasted like cup noodles but the buns were at least decent. The lemonade was nothing special. The service was good but given the price and the quality of food, I couldn't care even if their service was superb. Save your money and your time, go somewhere else for ramen.
