    I recently visited Akira Back at the Marriott Marquis Bangkok, and the experience exceeded my expectations. The atmosphere is fantastic, with a sleek, modern design and a great view of the city. It’s the kind of place that makes any evening feel special. The food was delicious. One standout dish was the Tuna Pizza, which I highly recommend as a starter. It was a great way to kick off the meal. The salmon didn’t disappoint either. The service was also excellent. If you’re looking for a restaurant with great food, a stylish atmosphere, and a stunning view in Bangkok, Akira Back is worth checking out.
