Akira - Modern Asian is a restaurant at Westgate Shopping Mall, 18 Mwanzi Rd, Nairobi, Kenya. The venue focuses on modern Asian food and provides a restaurant setting within one of Nairobi’s shopping malls. Its category places it among dining venues rather than a café, bar, or takeaway-only outlet, while the available service options cover both eating at the restaurant and taking food away.

Dine-in service makes Akira suitable for meals planned around a visit to Westgate Shopping Mall, while takeaway offers a separate option for food enjoyed elsewhere. The venue is also listed as good for groups, making it relevant for shared meals and gatherings where several diners are looking for a restaurant setting. Group suitability is a practical part of the venue’s character, without requiring the restaurant to be limited to large parties.

Akira’s drinks offering includes beer, wine, and cocktails. These options give the restaurant a broader drinks selection alongside its modern Asian food, with choices covering alcoholic beer, wine, and mixed drinks. The drinks available make the venue appropriate for diners seeking more than a meal alone, while the restaurant format also supports a straightforward food-focused visit.

The Westgate Shopping Mall address places Akira in a well-known Nairobi retail and dining destination. The location can suit a meal combined with time at the mall, as well as a separate restaurant visit. The address is 18 Mwanzi Rd, providing a clear reference point for locating the venue in the Westlands area of Nairobi.

Akira - Modern Asian is therefore defined by its modern Asian restaurant format, flexible dine-in and takeaway service, and selection of beer, wine, and cocktails. The venue suits groups as well as diners seeking a restaurant meal in or around Westgate Shopping Mall. Practical details such as reservations, dietary choices, opening times, family arrangements, and outdoor seating should be confirmed with the restaurant before a planned visit.
