Aki Asian Restaurant — Restaurant in Olyphant

It is a cozy and clean restaurant. I like how they remodeled the place. Prices are about average for the type of food they serve. I had the Teriyaki Chicken. It came with a salad with ginger dressing. It was a good ginger dressing with a touch of something a little different in it than I am used to. Whatever it was, it was good. It also came with Miso soup, but I ended up trading my son for his clear broth soup because his clear broth had too many mushrooms in it for him. It had a lot of flavor to it. The chicken was served on a hot skillet with the sauce rapidly bubbling. It was a large portion of chicken with a nice amount of scallions and onions under it. The sauce had a nice consistency (it wasn't watery, but not gravy like) and flavor that was just right. Everything was fresh and good quality. My son liked his soup and California rolls. The only thing he mentioned is the rolls came apart easy when trying to eat them with chop sticks. He had no problem when using his fingers. He also had Thai bubble tea with bobas. I tried it and it was delicious. We might just stop by for a bubble tea to go every once in a while. Overall, I really liked it and will be stopping back to try the Yaki Udon.

---Update--- The Shrimp Yaki Udon is delicious. There are a few more shrimp under the noodles in the pic that I dug out while I was eating. Just like last time, my plate was clean when I was done. My son loves the California Rolls. I tried a coconut with milk bubble tea and it was delicious. They are huge. I didn't finish it, but they have to go cups. Service was excellent. I am told that these are the employees (not owners) from another place that closed because the rent was suddenly jacked up way too high. They banded together to start their own restaurant. Their quality food and pride in their restaurant show that they are invested in this place. I hope they are around for many years to come.

2023 and still good. No more skillets. Just...

This has been one of the very best places I have tried in the NEPA region. The food was fresh and delicious. Friendly customer service, quick delivery of food ordered. We ordered the gyoza dumplings as an appetizer. They came out very quickly and had very bright colorful flavors that were each unique and distinctive. I enjoyed the chicken & shrimp Pad Thai, it was delicious, I would of liked to had more. The presentation was clean and neat and visually appealing. My wife had the chicken teriyaki bento box. The chicken had good flavor and the sushi roll was very fresh. The crab wrapped wontons were nicely cooked, crispy on the outside and had a heavy blend of cream cheese with a tiny bit of crab. They also had some type of wrapped and fried fish that was very good. Her plate was also served with a bowl of soup (miso?) That had a nice light taste with a couple of bites mushroom in it. The side salad was a little heavy in the dressing but had a unique taste that played with a sweetness of pineapple and a watered down thousands island's blend. Over all we were very happy with the food here and would enjoy returning to try other dishes that they...

Look at the pictures i posted . $100 worth of food, and no extra for spending. Most places do, spend $65 get a certain food free, not here. Can anyone see the difference between the spicy salmon and spicy tuna roll? Me either. Spicy crab roll was just chopped up imitation crab no sauce. Sexy Jalepeno platter is super unattractive lol. 3 poppers for $8. Where was the tuna on top? Why fry bread crumbs on top? Weird and so not worth the money. Fried calamari was ALL bread crumbs! and looked ridiculous, like long squiggly not the normal round circles and was not worth it. Beef udon was good, beef was literally the size of a pinky nail, no kidding, but good none the less. General tso was very good, just leave out the pineapple, never seen that before. Crab Rangoon was real good and Egg roll was good, eel roll is all avocado, as you can see in the picture. It's just sad they are rated so high. Im just being honest, it was a waste of time, just like the place O town right next door to this place. Both Rated so high, it seems to be by locals only, because they both are not worth a second...
