Every time I come around anything Japanese, I always get interested. Having studied Nihongo for one year back in college, it seems like I have a familiar attachment with anything Japanese. And the food is no exception!
Yesterday was another perfect time to try a relatively newly-opened Japanese restaurant in Cebu. Stepping inside Akita Japanese Restaurant isn’t intimidating and despite the rather small space they have, the place felt spacious to me. They have a simple set-up and although you don’t get the typical Japanese-themed interiors, the food totally didn’t disappoint.
Akita is a casual dining restaurant and is best for those who want to try Japanese food without having to shell out over a thousand bucks. The servings are really big and plenty for very reasonable prices.
Together with some of the Cebu Food Bloggers foodies, we happily filled our unforgiving tummies with delicious Japanese food — and with a twist (read: salads and chicken). It was a feast!

I always say that no one can just make me eat salad or leafy greens but I promise you these salads have really fresh veggies! Good to know, knowing that these were served by dinner time. The freshness really made me devour them.
What’s good is that you can also order their bento box! It’s like a value meal!
Overall, it was a very satisfying foodie experience and yes, the food is delicious and worth the value for your money. Try it on your next food trip!
Big thanks to Akita’s manager, Ms. Jackie, and the crew for the great service and accommodation they provided to us; also to Mr. Toshiro Ishihara for letting us experience and share their cuisine. Plus to Master Caloy Olano of Kalami Cebu for bringing us there!
