Conveniently located in the heart of Englewood, NJ, this restaurant offers street parking out front and is close to public parking and public transportation. The menu is diverse, with vegetarian options available, and the atmosphere has a lounge vibe with a red and black theme. There are plenty of seats available and the staff is friendly and knowledgeable. The owners are very welcoming and attentive. The food is consistently fresh and satisfying. The drinks are also excellent - I recently tried the Lychee Martini and it was delicious. Akai Lounge is perfect for any occasion, whether it's a girls' night out, a date night, or takeout. Don't miss out on Akai Lounge!

Ordered Rock Shrimps Tempoura for appetizer. It was very good, especially with the cucumbers on the ground. I ordered Sushi and my wife got a fantasy role. The food was very good. Very high quality fish.

Very tasty, the miso soup is the best I've had, though I'm not a Japanese food connoisseur. Service was New York style, on point, energetic staff, all COVID masked and keeping some distance. California roll can in 18 small pieces. Total meal was under $20. plus tip, bargain I'd say. Couldn't finish it all, doggie bagged half a dozen.
