AKAI: Japanese-Mediterranean Fusion to Share on the 30th Floor
At Akai, dining is more than just a meal — it’s a shared experience, 30 floors above Brussels. With a view that stuns and a menu that surprises, Akai blends the elegance of Japanese precision with the warmth and flair of Mediterranean cuisine.
Our à la carte menu is thoughtfully designed for sharing. Each dish is created with balance in mind — of flavors, textures, and presentation — so that everyone at the table can explore a variety of tastes together. Whether you're coming as a couple, a group of friends, or simply looking for a lively dinner with a view, Akai makes every bite part of the conversation.
Small Plates, Big Flavor
Start your evening with small plates perfect for sharing. From the classic Edamame—steamed or spiced with chili garlic—to the umami-rich Agedashi Tofu or comforting Miso Soup, these bites set the tone for a flavorful evening.
Our Bao Buns are soft, bold, and deliciously addictive. Whether it’s the caramelised pork belly, shredded duck with hoisin, or the rich Hokkaido eel bun, these are dishes made to be passed, split, and savored together.
Signature Nori Tacos
Akai’s Nori Tacos are an experience on their own. Each crispy seaweed shell holds sushi rice, marinated seafood, fresh herbs, and garnishes that burst with flavor. Choose from seabass, salmon, or Mediterranean bluefin tuna — or better yet, order them all and share.
Sushi That Goes Beyond the Expected
From delicate Nigiri and Sashimi to inventive rolls like the Crunchy Salmon Roll, Foie Gras Roll, or Truffled Beef Roll, our sushi is crafted for discovery and delight.
To experience the best of our sushi bar, try one of our Chef’s Selections, featuring curated combinations designed to be shared and explored at the table.
Warm Dishes That Comfort & Impress
Looking for something hot? Discover our signature Miso Black Cod, the tender Roasted Baby Chicken in Hiroshima miso sauce, or the exceptional Ito Sankyo Wagyu A5 ribeye — all made to be enjoyed with friends.
Seafood lovers will want to share the Unami-Glazed Lobster, the vibrant Scallop Sashimi with green curry, or the comforting Roasted Eel with Hazelnut — refined, flavorful, and shareable.
Light, Fresh & Umami-Packed Vegetables
Balance the bold flavors with some of our standout vegetable dishes, all perfect for the center of the table. Think Grilled Gem Lettuce with vinaigrette, Charcoal-Grilled Broccoli, or Sunomono Salad with chili and sesame.
End on a Sweet Note
Desserts at Akai are designed for indulgence — and for passing across the table. Highlights include the Matcha Tea Tiramisu, the tropical Passion Mango Dome, and the ultra-addictive Italian Soft Ice Cream — swirled, nostalgic, and impossible to resist. For something refreshing, share the Chef’s Fruit Sensation platter — perfect for two or more.
At Akai, Sharing is Part of the Experience
We believe the best meals are shared — the dishes, the drinks, the moments. That’s why our menu is built to be enjoyed together. Reserve your table and discover the Akai experience for yourself.
