Service was well paced with the first course arriving in a few minutes followed by the main. We didn't have high expectations for the cold tofu and okra but it was delicious and the tofu soaked up the soy based sauce and was balanced by the slight crunchiness of the okra. The waffle fries were exceptional - double fried with a curry aioli sauce. The tonkatsu and ramen were also great. The tonkatsu had a light, crispy batter and the ramen was so delicious, with the addition of corn, peas, black fungus and bamboo shoots, truly comforting. The burger was a hit, too. Juicy and flavorful. The small details here didn't go unnoticed, the unique plates, nice bamboo chopsticks and cute hippo candy plate. We chose to sit in front by the open windows since it was such a nice afternoon but the dining area further inside was welcoming, too. I've also been here outside of DineLA and it's just an overall solid experience.

The katsu was crispy and flaky - so that was a plus. Most of the dishes are kind of pricey in my opinion.

We made reservation for a weekday dinner and got seated quick. FOOD Crispy Rice with Spicy Tuna (8.3/10): *9 with the Serrano pepper A must have for appetiser whenever I go to a sushi restaurant. Love the presentation, it's easy to eat. Fresh tuna, great rice to tuna ratio. Wish there's mini jalapeño or Serrano pepper on top for more depth. For the cold dish specials, we ordered Yellowtail Jalapeño and Toro Yuzu Miso to share: Toro Yuzu Miso (9/10): Ponzu sauce in here is so nice! Love the citrusy touch to balance out the fatty toro. Love the mini sprouts garnish that balances out everything in here. Yellowtail Jalapeño (9.2/10): Very well balanced, along with the cilantro garnish everything compliments each other so nice! Love the Serrano pepper (I transferred one onto the crispy tuna rice and that's delicious!). Fish is super fresh, melts into your mouth ^Both cold dishes are excellent but I prefer this slightly more. Nigiri (8-8.5/10): All nigiri's are pretty good, we ordered a bunch of it. Our favourite one is definitely the Akamutsu, it has the toro texture and it's not usually seen everywhere. Scallops, Blu fin toro, salmon are top tier. Ikura was good but not amazing. Lobster ceviche taco (9.5/10): MY FAVOURITE OF ALL! The lobster is so fresh, the seasoning is refreshing and citrusy. With the hard shell taco, everything just puts together so nice that we had to encore this! (I believe the lobster ceviche is off-menu, our server recommended us to substitute with lobster, good call!) DRINKS For drinks. They have an extensive sake collection, we had the Nobu sake which is pretty smooth and nice. Service is great, our server knows the menu well and gave the right recommendations. Food comes in on time and in great orders. SERVICE & AMBIENCE Love the warmth hospitality, also love the Nothing special about the interior decor, Japanese light wood ambience. It's a very cozy place to have dinner with, ambience is clean and not with loud music. Nothing instagramable, I think this is more of a food-focus place, rather than a special occasion spot. For the way how they market themselves I feel like the service or the plates could go an extra mile to make it a better experience. I've never been to Nobu, but this restaurant lives up to the standard. Recommend, might not be everyone's #1 sushi place but you won't go wrong with this place. I'm not sure if this is a place for omakase or rolls/ handroll, but their raw fish and nigiris are nice.

Dad liked that lobster more than the caviar gf loved everything - salmon, halibut, Spanish mackerel, scallops, and uni. I had the artichoke appetizer. It doesn't say that it comes also with red peppers and scallions - so I got a version without. I liked the sushi I made - cucumber asparagus plum sauce . Didn't like the cucumber appetizer. Didn't hate it either. We alllll lovvveeedd the deserts. Rice pudding and cappuccino desert thing.

Wagyu will never be the same for me after this. I went for the highest-tier wagyu omakase, and it…read morewas worth every penny! The first plate was the 3-item wagyu appetizer, which was a strong start. Then the two cuts of Yazawa wagyu came and you could really taste the quality. I can't remember which cut included the egg wash, but that was hands down the highlight of my meal. The silky, buttery texture was absolutely unreal. I was especially lucky to try their Kumamoto wagyu, which was said to be on their menu for a limited time. The cattles were raised in the Kumamoto region known for its pristine spring water. Every bite was tender, rich, and unforgettable! I also tried their Sohomare Tuxedo Jumai Daiginjo sake, which was so smooth and perfectly balanced. Highly recommend adding it to your meal.

Me and a girlfriend decided to go to Yazawa to catch up since we haven't seen each other in a long…read moretime. I was looking forward to Yazawa since I've heard such great things about this restaurant. We got their egg drop soup and a couple of their meats from their à la carte menu. The soup was delicious. They were able to split one order of soup for two people. In regard to the meat, I was shocked to find out that we had to cook the meat ourselves. I would've thought if we were paying premium prices that the staff would cook for us. I hoped we cooked the meat correctly. Nonetheless, the wagyu selection was delicious. I ordered assorted vegetables but I was sad to hear that they were all out. We finished our meal with an order of tiramisu. The dessert was fine. After paying for our meal, the server asked us why we didn't tip. I thought this was highly unprofessional for Yazawa to ask this. I did not think the service reflected the high price point of the restaurant. If I will be paying top dollar for quality meat, I expect service to at least educate us on how to cook it.

Been a sugarfish fan for years and finally got to try another location. This one is small and…read moreintimate per usual. We came for an early dinner and beat the crowd which was great. This location actually had the Hirame sushi which was so exciting since we haven't been able to get it at any other locations in years since it's always sold out. The service was quick and they were kind. I will say the busier it got the less attentive they were and forgot to fill our water and ginger. Though I love sugarfish, the proximity of your table to others will always be really uncomfortable and awkward for me as people literally have to press up against your table to sit in the booth directly next to you which has always been really weird to me. But the food was great as always. It's sadly over $100 for us to get the trust me and nozawa trust me which feels pretty high but the quality of fish is always exceptional.

Stopped by here as the kids were craving sushi, and we were nearby. It was delicious! The fish was…read morefresh, and service was friendly. It also did not break the bank which was a bonus. Service was on point. Cups were always filled, and they described each dish as it came out so we knew what we were eating. My recommendation is to get the Trust Me omakase (we got the Nozawa Trust Me) so you are able to try a bit of everything. They even offered to change a hand roll into regular rolls since they knew I was sharing some of the courses with my kids. Nice touch. The bathrooms also have both scented and unscented soaps, the latter for prior to your meal. There's a parking garage across the street which was very convenient. If you haven't tried Sugarfish before, it's definitely worth stopping by. I imagine all their locations are pretty tasty.

I'd make a quick reservation just in case. In terms of food, we really enjoyed the pork belly, beef short rib, and Chilean sea bass skewers!! They were grilled so well and delicious. We also liked the kimchi carbonara, yellowtail jalapeno, and the assortment of sushi we ordered à la carte (especially the yellowtail belly & scallops). I would pass on agedashi tofu (it was a big miss) and the miso crab salmon..was really odd..I know it was supposed to be crab but the texture felt like salmon wrapped with tuna..and it just didn't taste good imo.

So... I'm a bit lactose intolerant. This place did NOT hurt the tummy…read more A friend invited me here. I was afraid that everything was going to be extremely heavy, like French cuisine can be with all the cheese and butter. But I ordered the Combo of the Lemon Butter Chicken Ramen and a side of the Miso Teri Bowl (in case the ramen would be too much for me), and I was blown away by both dishes. The Lemon Butter is NOT heavy at all. It felt light and savory, but had a depth of flavor that's hard to identify because this is a dish I have never had anywhere else before. I can see why it's the most popular item on the menu. I took the side of Miso Teri Bowl home for dinner as the ramen was filling enough. There's a hint of wasabi in the dressing they drizzle over the shredded green onions that elevate this dish from other Teriyaki Chicken bowls I've had. Just DELICIOUS. I'd come back to Tonsho just for this rice bowl. My friend got the Dan Dan Ramen which he said blew his mind. He was surprised by the lightness of the broth, which is unlike the Chinese Dan Dan which is usually made of heavy creamy sesame paste. He actually drank most of the broth, and didn't feel like he was cheating on his diet. Additionally, the design of the restaurant, from the layout to the choice of bowls and utensils reminded me of a certain 2-Michelin Star restaurant in Culver City. The service was bar none. The waitress was attentive and thoughtful, even getting us a glass of water after we had been sitting there for another hour after paying our check. We never felt rushed or pushed out. Five stars, period. Coming back for more.

BEST RAMEN I HAVE EVER HAD!…read more We dropped by this on a whim, and I'm SO glad we did. They had just opened for the day, so there was no wait to be seated and the service was good. The space is cozy, but pretty much all you need to have some amazing ramen! We started with the drunken sake crispy wings, which tasted like nothing we'd had before. They're super crispy, juicy and very tasty. For my main, I got the #9 Chashu supreme and added dumplings. SO bomb!! From the moment it arrives at your table, the aroma of truffle is just divine! The flavors are perfectly balance with just enough spice. 10/10 recommend!

I ordered the Creamy Fusion #3 with pork, and while I enjoyed it, next time I'd probably try something with a little more bold flavor. The soba noodles in the ramen were excellent fresh, smooth, and cooked nicely. Service was fast and efficient, which I appreciated. I do wish they had physical menus instead of only QR codes though. We also tried the Wagyu sando and thought it was just average compared to the ramen. Overall, it's a solid ramen spot with high quality ingredients, and I'll definitely be back to try more items on the menu.
