"I wish I could give a better note to the restaurant, after all the service and the place itself is very nice, including the very entertaining opera singing, but let's be honest: this is a restaurant, and the food was simply sub par. The soup noodle starter was very bland, lacking flavours and complexity. The vegetable pancake was nice, but nothing to rave about: a simple kind of fritada with spring onions and a sauce to dip in...simple in taste as in existence. The rice cake with the spicy sauce was very good. Not only was the chewyness of the rice on point, but also the balance of the sauce was spot on. Next, the fried chicken was also good, moist, and crunchy with a nice sweet and salty sauce. As a main, I had the beef, which also came with rice, kimichy, and pickled vegetables. This was a big disappointment: although the beef was tender, it lacked complexity, refinement and flavours. It was like drinking decaff coffee...decent, but absolutely forgettable. The dessert, a vanilla ice cream was also not very good, and most probably not homemade, tasting like some big low brands with lots of fake vanilla flavours. All that, unfortunately, came at a very high price when included tips and drinks. While prices for food in Switzerland are generally insanely high compared to other countries, what we paid here was beyond the acceptable norm given the level of the food."

Delicious food, a friendly service and authentic Korean songs performed by a professional opera singer. Akaraka is an unique experience which we can recommend to everybody interested in Asian culture and lifestyle. View menu

This is not a place where you can have a light meal for 20 to 30 francs if you crave Korean food while traveling. They sell course meals for between 60 and 70 francs. A place where you have to be quiet rather than a place where you can eat comfortably?

We have dined NYE 2022 and sung by the owner who is an inconceivable opera maestro. We had the tasting menu and the food was solid. We were entertained between meals and this made it an unforgettable experience. Unexpected is this a unique experience in Zurich!

Excellent food on three menus meat, fish, vegetarian. Friendly and professional staff. Very good service with right pace and flexibility (eg asked for some extra dishes on top of the menu and was always possible at very reasonable price). Good wine card bottles and by glass. Last, bonus: one of the waiters/owners is also an excellent opera singer and has sung a few minutes. Very amusing. Will be back View menu

I just wanted to leave my experience here; Out Group mistakenly thought that this was a typical restaurant that ordered individual items from the menu, but despite this, the experience was unexpectedly quite amazing. And even after I found out that the restaurant was really authentic and served by high quality, I was once again surprised by the singing and the dessert that came after it. So... it was a good experience! I'd do that to other people.

If you want to eat delicious and filling food in Switzerland, you can go to Akaraka. It was so delicious and clean that it was hard to believe that it was Korean food in a foreign country. I was impressed that I was able to have a great meal thanks to the friendly clerk and nice owner. Even if you feel that the price of the weekend dinner course meal is burdensome, definitely Give it a try. After eating ice cream and coffee, you will nod your head at the price.
