Suggestions for Dining and Drinking near Little Tokyo, Los Angeles

Kevin R. • December 27, 2017Charming bar that specializes in Japanese whiskeys. Special cocktails are beyond. Definitely recommended the Yoshi Island for something different.

Jess K. • July 20, 2017must get the sea bass and scallop ! The snap pea is also a nice side

Tea • October 6, 2017I loved the matcha smoothie with macadamia. Very good quality. Not watery at all. Can’t wait to go back and try everything else.

Kirk Y. • September 3, 2014Try any of the green tea pastries. Or the maple bacon donuts are excellent.

Steph S. • July 2, 2015Sit at the bar and talk to your sushi chefs! Amaebi, uni, and snapper all day 👌🏼

Allyzon T. • March 27, 2013I suggest the seafood ramen. It has a tomato base! Delicious

Olive • April 20, 2015WAGYU!!!!! Remember to make reservations ahead of time and definitely try the wagyu beef! Service is very good here as well!

Tonio B. • January 17, 2016Personally, my favorite ramen in LA. The Tonkatsu-Shoyu is where it's at - broth is super rich & savory. Take it to the next level by adding the spicy habañero miso.

Samuel J. • May 29, 2015Fantastic low key sushi spot. Good yellowtail.

Jole P. • November 20, 2020Delicious, creamy japanese and italian fusion pasta dishes!

Miguel C. • May 25, 2014California tempura and shrimp tempura rolls are great! Mimosas are awesome too!

Emery M. • April 20, 2018Pearl salt ramen, Spicy Miso Ramen, eggplant, and takoyaki is delicious.

Adrian P. • June 9, 2015This delicious truck is at Stumptown in the Arts District on Saturdays. The fried chicken sandwich was fantastic. Juicy, tempura battered fried chicken goodness with coleslaw and honey mustard.

Hanh N. • October 7, 2012Try one of the specialty cream filling flavors, like green tea or pumpkin!

Jean-Louis N. • December 8, 2014The best Ramen experience since moving back from Fukuoka. The wait for seating is ridiculously long, but the Ramen is worth the wait.

Jason • August 26, 2018Pop by between 5pm and 8pm for daily happy hour, which includes $1 off beer and wine, $6 wells, and deals on food.

Anna S. • June 22, 2014Salmon cheeks, seared salmon, seared scallops and salmon skin rolls is the stuff here:)

Pingie P. • December 27, 2016Pork udon soup is light and delicious. Great for a cool winter day. Pork ramen was spectacular and sushi was fresh and good. I will definitely come back!

Karla U. • July 22, 2013It's amazing and wonderful! Soft and delicious! Doesn't crumble right away like other places! :) my fave place! Try some Earl Grey and Rose

e g. • March 18, 2018Sicilian and the Grandma! Square Pies.

Mere • June 23, 2015The saimin is delicious and super filling. A great find for Hawaiian food in Little Tokyo.

Berny • November 24, 2010Try classic doner wrap, street-car style. Use the aioli garlic sauce for the sweet potato fries not the wrap; it will overpower the great blend of flavors. Cinnamon pita strips w gelato is a plus!

Ron • January 25, 2016My fave is #50, Tenshin Chahan Ankake with curry flavoring in the fried rice. It's a shrimp omelette w/gravy over pork fried rice.

Ashy M. • November 13, 2011Miso Ramen: extra chashu or the Bacon gachas! If the chef makes oxtails, get them! They go fast!

Cyndi • July 11, 2013great tea service. Afternoon high tea is super filling. Get the groupon! Great deal :)
