Address - Akira Back, JW Marriott Hotel, 30 Beach Road, Level B1M Singapore 189763 The many paintings we saw here at JW Marriott Hotel’s Akira Back really put a spark in the interior environment! The colours and abstract lines added an air of refinement and elegance to the place. All the way at the end of the restaurant was a semi-private dining area, with the centrepiece being the huge LED art piece! It morphed into various shades and hues but I can imagine if diners were facing the screen, it’d get annoyingly bright after a while. My overall rating of the experience: 4 out of 5 stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ #exploresgtogether #momentssg #tripmoments #artshunting #art #paintings #staycation #luxuryhotel #hotel #restaurant #japanesecuisine #singapore

Address - Akira Back 30 Beach Road, Level B1M, 189763 Ambiance/Facilities - fine dining Highlights - never get tired of the food and service here. I was first introduced to this place when tripfam meet up. It's the beginning of tripfam gathering. From then on, whenever I come back, I will order the cod fish (super yum!), mushroom pizza, wagyu friedrice, and 48hrs beef. That are the most delicious thing in this place. Bonvoy member got 20% discount. They will also give free dessert for birthday celebration. Came back here recently with 2 fellow brothers and we ordered sweet moscato too. Although not filling, still taste good. I really love the cod fish! Be reminded that the place is super cold! Drinking alcohol alone doesn't help me to shiver. Avg.

Address - 30 Beach Road, Level B1M, Singapore 189763 Ambiance/Facilities - Great for couples and friends gathering Highlights - Food for The Eyes Avg. Price per Person - 100 Rating - Must Visit It was indeed a surprise. Their online reservations ran out on New Year Day and I just tried my luck and I got a table at 8pm. I took their Festival Menu and it was indeed a great choice. I was kinda afraid that I might need supper after my dinner. But their portion was filling and I took about 1hr ish to complete my dinner. Many thanks to Sue Wong for penning me in for dinner and her great knowledge on wine and dine was indeed a good tip. My dinner was successful and my taste buds had experienced some amazing flavours that night. What a great start for 2022. Their tuna pizza is highly recommended and I can confirm it. If I was there for a tuna pizza lunch, I tell you I will need like nine tuna pizza to satisfy myself. It may seems to you that nine tuna pizza maybe too much. But their tuna pizza is not exactly a pizza, but still extremely tasty. In one of the dishes, it had yuzu sake foam. Wow! That taste was exploding, never really thought that foam can be so tasty too. Probably, I am a yuzu lover and like my yuzu sake served hot. So I like this yuzu sake foam too. Their soul mate which was uni on toast was so decadent to enjoy and you paired it with their tosa jelly. For sure, you can taste soya sauce in tosa jelly. After finding out, yes it does contains soy. Another great find was the truffled potato puree served with Jidori chicken, I just cannot stop with the potato puree, so soft so creamy. Ending the course with king crab fried rice was a good idea too. Last but not least, the Hokkaido milk ice cream desserts served with dry ice (presumably) and champagne jelly!!!!!! You know what? Just take my money $. Thanks to everyone at Akira Back and keeping my drinks full. I will revisit for their CNY menu soon. #momentssg
