Knowing we would be staying in Elgin, and wanting to eat Asian food, we read the reviews and decided on Akina's. Unfortunately, when we arrived the evening of 12/5/08, it was CLOSED. As in out of business. There is a "For Lease" in the darkened window, and the phone has been disconnected.
Lousy service. Was there for lunch with my granddaughter. Went in, the woman on front counter didn't even say hello. We went in and sat at a table. People were coming in picking up food while others were sitted. Was there about 10 mns. and not once did the woman acknowlege us. I would have left but my granddaughter was hungry. I went up to someone that worked there and asked why we weren't being taken care off. He apologized profusedly. Needless to say, the food reflected the service.
Try This Place!: This is a charming little restaurant in downtown Elgin. They have a nice decor and excellent food. The night my wife and I attended, there were two other tables with guests - the major construction across the street is probably impacting their business. However, it was a great place for some quiet dining. Our server was very attentive and was helpful in guiding us through the menu and making suggestions. Food was very good.
I hope more people come here and support them as they endure the construction across the street.
