I ate Manupuku premium Omakase.
It includes from appetizer to dessert.
Every meat is US Kobe.
US Kobe “Sukiyaki” is really good.
(including the following beef;
US Kobe Filet, Boneless short rib, Chunk flap, Miso skirt steak)
I like garlic fried rice too.
Try Manupuku premium Omakase.
You will love it. ❤️
—————————–
Quality of meat is really good,
so it is a little more expensive
than normal Korean restaurants.
I would like to recommend to eat
Kobe Otoro Sashi.
Beef quality is fantastic.
When you eat this, it will
automatically melt in your mouth.
Usually, people like to eat
Jo Kabi,and Jo Rib Rosu.
Also, quality is really good
and the taste is really good
If you order assorted Seafood,
you can eat variety sea food with some vegitables such as carrot, bell pepper,
onion, corns etc.
At the end, try to order
Garlic rice or Bibimmen.
If you visit here, you will be satisfied with quality of meat and their services.
The server did not check the receipt properly and then chased me all the way to my car asking about his tip. His attitude was extremely unprofessional and aggressive, which made the situation very uncomfortable.
This kind of behavior toward customers is completely unacceptable and left a very negative impression.
Been here at this location twice this week, and the experience has been nothing short of exceptional.
Food
The food has been absolutely the best, the quality, freshness, and flavors are all out of this world. It’s amazing to taste the different flavors that each cut of meat, with seasoning brings you.
Atmosphere
Since I have travelled quite frequently around the world, when I am here, I feel like I’m in Japan. It’s a small, nice, warm cozy Japanese feeling restaurant but it’s big enough for us big Americans. Clean – super clean. They take time to clean up each table thoroughly.
Staff
We have mostly interacted with the ladies that work here. They have been so accommodating and friendly. They always have a smile, and willing to explain the dishes to you. They were also very helpful in getting us in early when another table finished up early. I really appreciate the effort these ladies took to get us in.
Overall
This is absolutely my favorite restaurant. In comparison to the Yakiniku restaurants I have been to in Japan, Thailand, China, Las Vegas, etc, this one as well as the other locations (Torrance and downtown LA) have been absolutely outstanding every time. Very happy. I will always be back to see these ladies smile and experience their friendliness and amazing fabulous food.
Conclusion: If you are in LA, you must try it. No exceptions!
Atmosphere was very nice.. you take your shoes off and walk up the steps and into the room.
Meat and seafood was really fresh and delicious. The soup was good too.
Customer service was on point. I also recommend you to make reservations. This place is always busy. A must try!
Merry Christmas everyone! =)
Really do love the small, low light atmosphere that gives it an intimate feel. For the food, just about all of the beef cuts that I had here were nicely marbled and delicious. Try the Tokyo style prime short rib, prime ribeye, prime outside skirt, and prime short rib. Certain cuts have a nicely flavored marinade to them. I’d also recommend trying their juices, especially the pear flavor as they’re freshly made in house.
Don’t forget to try the sweet potato ice cream dessert before you leave. Very unique.
We ordered the uni and beef, but the portion seemed smaller than before, and the uni was not fresh at all—it had a strong, unpleasant taste that was so unbearable I had to rinse my mouth with water. It was honestly inedible.
We went around 9 PM, close to their closing time, so maybe that was a factor, but this shouldn’t happen regardless. Hope they improve their quality control.
