Akira Back: Modern Japanese Cuisine with a Korean Essence
Panning across two levels of the hotel, this signature restaurant specializes in Japanese cuisine with a Korean essence. Akira Back imbibes flavours from the ancient back alleys of Tokyo and metamorphoses them into a contemporary gastronomic experience. Replete with a robatayaki grill which originates from a centuries-old country style of cooking by Japanese fishermen, the restaurant distinguishes itself with an eight-metre tall sake wall which houses some of the finest sakes and wines in the sub-continent.
A Korea native and former professional snowboarder who was raised in Aspen, Colorado, Chef Akira Back brings his sense of adventure and boundless creativity into the kitchen at Yellowtail Japanese Restaurant & Lounge By Chef Akira Back, which opened in the Summer of 2008 at Las Vegas’ Bellagio Resort & Casino. Back’s menu embodies classic Japanese cuisine, which features innovative dishes that utilize fresh ingredients from top purveyors. As a result, Chef Back was awarded the title of “Rising Star” by Restaurant Hospitality in October 2008. In 2008, 2010, 2011 and 2012 he had the distinct honor of hosting a multi-course dinner at the prestigious James Beard House and recently was awarded Best Chef in Las Vegas in the Las Vegas Weekly publication.
Chef Back appeared on an episode of the Food Network’s Iron Chef America and battled Iron Chef Bobby Flay. He acts as the single spokesperson for the Japanese knife company Suisin knives. Also, he can be seen on NBC’s “The Today Show“, Food Network’s “Best Thing I Ever Ate,” as well as Cooking Channel’s “United Tastes of America”, and KBS in Korea, “Success Mentor”.
