Reviews
The service was excellent, and every dish I tried was outstanding. Super fresh fish and flavors that really stand out. The crab croquettes are incredible, and I’m obsessed with the tuna cheek, so good!
Prices are very reasonable, and the overall vibe of the place is really nice. Great atmosphere, amazing food , definitely worth a visit. Go try it!
On top of that we really loved how special design of everything was, the plates were beautiful, you can choose your class out of a collection when you order some sake, and just the decoration overall was truly amazing.
The excellent price and great quality of the lunch is unparalleled. The price of this tuna dong is comparable to that of Tokyo’s Seagen, and the rice and wasabi are even better than Seagen’s. The soy sauce has also been processed and is very tasty.
With this experience I decided to pay another visit in the evening. Evenings are not as cost-effective as lunch, but there are more options.
For an izakaya, they did a very good job with the buttered scallops with three types of mushrooms in them, and the scallops had a very high quality and were very flavorful. Umaki’s fire is also fantastic. The fish used for the sushi was equally excellent, the whites didn’t have that rotten taste that many restaurants have and was very fresh. That Dinner’s Chirashi wasn’t as excellent as the tuna offered at lunch, but it was still a great choice at that price.
With the aura of so many great qualities, the other flaws don’t really matter that much anymore, you guys are good enough. I can say but Bowl for lunch you guys are the best Japanese restaurant in LA.
But I think you can try to use better eggs for your dishes. the Tamago in Chirashi, and the eggs in Umaki don’t have much flavor, which is a small drawback.
Then there’s the sea urchin that I wish you guys would have chosen differently, the one we had tonight was the worst thing at this meal. After I brought this up, manager gave me a different sea urchin to try, but honestly neither were excellent.
But I actually suspect that the experience made me eat the same sea urchin, the first time it was the part that was pressed further down, while the second time I may have opened a new box or put it on the top part.
The manager didn’t look too happy after getting my feedback lol, I understand that very well, but I hope my review was helpful and expect you to do better in the future.
Everything we had was so, so enjoyable, from the really fresh and delicious fish, to the sides that always seemed to have a little something something that sets them apart from similar dishes you may have had before.
Highlights: 1. The creamy homemade tofu is crazy good. On our first night we shared one, and on the second night we had one each. You really need to try this. 2. The yamaimo with mentaiko was really unique. I’ve never had yamaimo pieces like that (they’re usually grated) and the rich and unctuous mentaiko coating was so good. 3. The tuna of course! So fresh and clean tasting with such good texture.
Finally, the service was warm and lovely both times and the restaurant has such a calm and homey atmosphere.
This place has easily become a must-visit for whenever we’re back in LA!
While it’s not a “sceney” place, the atmosphere is lovely and inviting, and the prices are remarkably fair for the exceptional quality you receive. You absolutely must try the tuna platter with five different cuts; it’s unique, artfully presented, and utterly amazing. This place deserves to become super popular – go try it now!
