Quick SummaryGreat quality Japanese food. The beef tongue is a must! Sea bass is a dark horse must as well. All of our dishes were delicious. It's a small spot, so reservations are a must during the weekendsFood- 5 starsBeef tongue- this was the star of the show. One of the best beef tongue I've ever had (probably top 5 of all beef dishes). It's so tender and full of flavor. Just fantasticSea bass- this was very good as well. Definitely a must orderSalmon don- this was very good as well. Would recommend it just to add more substance carbs to your mealWe also ordered the Anikimo salad, Kanpachi kama, monkfish liver, and tofu. All of these orders were great, but the top 3 were must-trysService...
This hole in the wall izakaya definitely lives up to the hype on yelp. We ordered the beef tongue, raw Hokkaido octopus, assorted sashimi, and kaarage. The beef tongue was the best beef tongue I have ever tasted, and I don't normally like beef tongue. It was beautifully charred on the outside and so juicy. The sashimi was really fresh and I could tell the quality the instant I tasted it. The octopus umami taste was delicious as well, but I prefer the suckers over the flesh due to the chewiness. The karaage was tasty, but I've had better. And my favorite of all time was definitely the pannacotta for dessert! The toasted green tea was a 5/5 for me; definitely get this if anything else!
Incredible! The seafood was incredibly fresh, and everything was seasoned and cooked to perfection. Since the restaurant follows an izakaya style, the portions are on the smaller side, so be prepared to order multiple dishes per person. While this place can be a bit expensive, I believe it's definitely worth the price. Their house-made black sesame ice cream, in particular, is absolutely delicious.
My friend loves this place so she brought me here as a treat the other night. The food was so good! We ordered a lot of different things so I could try a variety and we ate tapas style.We sat at the sushi bar and had wonderful conversations with the sushi chef and other customers. It was a lot of fun. Now I know this place exists, I'll be going again before I leave the LA area.

The restaurant offers a genuinely authentic experience with fresh and delicious flavors. Although it's on the pricier side, I believe it justifies the cost. The sashimi is exceptionally fresh and of high quality! I highly recommend trying the house-made ice cream as well. Food: 5/5
This is a very intimate Japanese restaurant with an extensive Sake menu. Reservations are needed. There are many small plates to order and choose from. Everything is made fresh.Highly recommend the grilled see bass. Honestly, everything was great.
It's unmarked from the outside, but the restaurant is very authentic. I tried the beef tongue, it's really good! It's a bit pricey for my usual spending, but the quality is good. I would highly recommend if price is not an issue for you.Food: 5/5
Amazing dining experience. Reminded me of eating at a nice bar in Japan. The karaage chicken and salmon and ikura bowl were both delicious, and the ambience is very lively and fun.
