Had a great 7 course meal. My wife thought it was really good with every dish really tasty and well presented. I considered it one of the best meals I have had in years. Gluten free options were well catered for but make sure to let them know in the booking

We had a memorable evening at Akaiito. The restaurant has a very romantic ambience. The staff are warm, attentive, and very knowledgeable about the dishes. We went for the 5 course menu, which was incredibly delicious. You can tell they take time to ensure the dishes are perfect and beautifully presented. If you are looking for unique Japanese experience, a variety of flavours, and top-notch perfection, then this is the place! We shall definitely be back soon.
