I got the angus cut steak with basil rice pilaf and it was delicious! The steak was cooked perfectly medium and the sauce that went on top was just the right amount of flavor. The rice was cooked with basil and bacon and had so much umami. The dish also came with a side salad. We finished everything. I would come back to try their omurice next time. This restaurant is located at The Shops at Santa Anita across from Ding Tai Fung. It is causal and with good quality beef.

US Kobe Slice Beef Don

Came by on a Friday for lunch and was pleasantly surprised that there was no line at all. I ordered the US Kobe Slice Beef Don in the regular size and added a Jidori raw egg on top. My friend got the Omu Curry & Rice with Cut Steak. Both dishes were delicious. One thing to note is that the regular size beef don is smaller than the large tower version pictured on the menu, which our server explained beforehand. The beef itself was served at room temperature, but the warm rice helped heat it up. At first I was a little surprised, but our waiter explained that the beef is roast beef and intentionally not cooked well done in order to maintain its tenderness. After trying it, it made sense because the beef was incredibly tender and flavorful. My friend also really enjoyed her curry and said it was packed with flavor. Overall, a solid lunch spot with friendly service and great food. I'd definitely come back to try more of the menu. A small little spot, but so many dishes to try!

They don't have very many tables, but the servers helped us get ordered before we got sat. The food was really delicious.

Omu-Rice with Hamburg Steak
Kim B.

We've been missing Japanese omurice and wagyu since we came back from Japan, so we decided to check out Red Rock. We waited for about 10-15 minutes before there was a table available. Once we ordered our meal, the food came really fast. I really liked the Angus Cut Steak Don. It was medium rare, tender, and flavorful. The omurice with hamburg steak and shrimp was ok. We were looking forward to cutting the fluffy omurice open, but it wasn't made that way here. The rice was wrapped with the omelet. The curry was strong and a little spicy. Overall, the steak and omurice was tasty, but it didn't blow me away.

Great little restaurant on the second floor food court of the Santa Anita Mall. Quick way to navigate to it is that it's right next to Din Tai Fung. Seating unfortunately is limited to like eight tables or so, but the menu more than makes up for it. Red Rock specializes in Japanese Don dishes. So if that's your jam, come at them bro! Prices are steep, but worth it in my opinion. They use quality meats that's direct-fired on a grill. Everything is made-to-order and it comes out quick! Ordered the following: - Omi-Rice/Hamburg Steak - 8.5/10: Hella good. Thick, tasty patty on top of skillfully crafted and silky scrambled eggs that blankets a large serving of rice...and all of it smothered with their original sauce. Sauce isn't too overpowering, so the dish is well-balanced. You will be full after this meal. This would be my go-to if I came back, but there's so many other stuff on the menu! Will definitely be coming back as a good time was had by all!

6/7/2026 3 Stars for food. 2 Stars taken off for rude customer service from the guy behind the counter! Not my first time at Red Rock, but first time at the Arcadia location. OMU-RICE HAMBURG STEAK As always, I chose the demi-glace sauce. Demi-glace was lacking in depth of flavor. It was good, but not excellent. Rice was done well with light ketchup flavor and not overcooked. There were bits of onion and red bell pepper in it as well. Egg was soft and fluffy. The hamburg steak was soft, like meatloaf. It was slightly underseasoned. ICED GREEN TEA Iced tea did not taste like green tea. It was very light in green tea flavor. Yes, probably from a tea bag, but still there's got to be some green tea flavor. It might have just been iced water. Got some samples of house hot sauce and pickled jalapeños. The hot sauce tasted like gochujang with soy sauce and maybe rice vinegar. It was not spicy. Underwhelming sauce. The jalapeños are spicy and they were sliced thin, which was better! You can order any of these sides by paying $1.50. SEATS This is a very small, corner restaurant. There were two bar seats on the side, about 10 tables and seats. LOCATION At the Santa Anita Mall. On the second floor, right across from Din Tai Fung. Come through Nordstrom's side and it will be easier to find. CUSTOMER SERVICE I was there on a Sunday and it was not busy. The server was kind and did his job well. But there was one Asian guy behind the counter who was just standing there. He was extremely rude from the moment I got there. He just kept on giving me weird and dirty looks. All I was doing was taking some photos of the outside of the restaurant and he just kept staring and giving me dirty looks. Went to the front to be seated for lunch and the server seated me. Server was very kind. Service was good and food came out at a reasonable time. But after I ate and paid, I took more pictures of the restaurant. The same guy who stood behind the counter, who was not doing anything but just standing there kept on looking with a scowl on his face. I just ate there. It's obvious I was a customer and he was rude still! Due to his poor customer service and extremely rude attitude, I will not be back at this location again!

Premium beef bowl spot that surprised me by how good it was. Located in the Santa Anita mall next to Din Tai Fung and Uncle Tetsu cheesecake. We went on a Saturday night and didn't have to wait long. Food/Drink- 5 stars US Kobe beef don- this was fantastic with the raw egg. This was so rich and flavorful. I loved how thin they cut the meat and how fatty it was. The horseradish sauce was so good as well. My only feedback is that I wish they had pickled ginger or some sort of pickled vegetables to balance how rich the meat was. I walked out of the meal feeling like I ate an entire A5 wagyu steak Hamburger steak- this was rich and flavorful as well. Same comments as above. Really wish they had some pickled vegetables to clean the palate between those rich bites of beef Service- 5 stars Food came out quickly and servers were helpful with the menu Bottom Line Excellent Japanese beef bowl spot that offers a quick and enjoyable wagyu experience

Omu-rice /Hamburg steak
Katelin V.

We came here after we couldn't get off the waitlist to dtf lol But I'm so glad we did! The omurice hamburg was so good and filling! It was juicy and the demiglaze sauce was a perfect condiment!

We were in the area so we had to go here again. Even my mom, who never likes new food, liked Red Rock and completely demolished her meal. No a single grain of rice was left after she was done. I was craving a katsu so I went with that this time. The tonkatsu was so crispy and the sauce kept the meal from being too dry. The husband got a bowl where they gave a generous amount of demiglace sauce, which was so rich. We keep wanting to try new places, but it's hard when you're in Arcadia and Red Rock is there to welcome you.

US Kobe Slice Beef Don
Rachel D.

Expensive for what it is, but definitely worth a try since you can't find this around the area. We missed the opportunity to try this in Japan. We got the Kobe Sliced Beef Don and Curry Rice with Hamburg Steak. Both are very flavorful and use high quality meat. The hamburg steak was very juicy and not too salty, which I love. For the price, we'd rather eat at a sit-down restaurant instead of a food stall. Despite the location, the service and ambiance were not bad.

US Kobe Slice Beef Don w/jidori raw egg
Jennie H.

Yall have no idea how many times I've walked past this place at the Santa Anita Mall but every time, I wondered how it was Food: Ordered the Reg size US Kobe Slice Beef Don ~ $25.99 for 5oz **highly recommend you add a Jidori raw egg for $2.50 Slow roasted and hella tender def worth! ‍People: they are very busy and have very limited seating available and don't let you save your place in line so you'll have to actually wait in line Vibes: it feels very similar to Japan restaurants as their culture is more of 'hurry and eat and leave' as the people waiting in line are staring and watching Overall, I would def come back and try other things in the menu as they do have a special menu and curry

Jennifer C.

My bf and I go to the Torrance location pretty often and was excited to see them open in his hometown. Food is just as good however, the pricing here is wild. The regular 5oz don is $25.99 and the large (10oz) is $41.99. My bf always orders the large at the Torrance location and it is $29.99. Granted I believe it's only 8oz for the large there, but that's a pretty steep increase! Seating is also real minimal, mostly just at the bar and it's awkward being served food from behind and sitting so close to other parties. m

Angus Rib Eye Steak Don(Rib Eye Steak)
William H.

There's a new Japanese steak bowl spot that recently opened next to Din Tai Fung, and while it's not bad by any means, it didn't quite hit the mark for me. The bowl itself is clean, well-prepared, and made with quality ingredients. The steak is cooked nicely, and everything tastes fresh and relatively healthy--which I can definitely appreciate. That said, for the price point, I was expecting something more filling and flavor-forward. The overall profile felt a bit restrained. I kept waiting for that extra punch--whether from seasoning, sauce, or umami depth--but it never really arrived. It's the kind of dish that's pleasant and inoffensive, but also something I genuinely feel I could recreate at home without much trouble. Not a bad meal, just not memorable enough for me to return. If you're looking for something light and clean, it may be worth trying once--but personally, I was hoping for more.

Really good potato salad

I've been to multiple KazuNori locations, including Pasadena, Downtown LA, and Koreatown. If I had…read moreto rank them, Pasadena would be #1 for cleanliness, easy parking, service, and overall hand roll quality. Koreatown would be #2. The service and hand rolls are just as good as Pasadena, but the parking isn't free, which is the main reason I rank it slightly lower. Downtown LA would be #3. At this point, I'd rather go to the Pasadena or Koreatown locations because I've had a better overall experience at both. I came to the Pasadena location on a Wednesday around noon. It was pretty empty when we arrived, but about 30 minutes later, right as we were leaving, it started getting busy with the lunch crowd. Every hand roll was well prepared and tasted fresh. The waitress who greeted us and helped seat us was very kind. She was wearing black glasses and kept checking on us to make sure everything was okay. She was attentive and very professional. The only negative was that I noticed a slight fishy smell from the water glass. Hopefully they can make sure all the glasses are thoroughly cleaned. Overall, Pasadena is still my favorite KazuNori location, and I'll definitely be back.

Stop by here for lunch on the weekend and the wait wasn't as bad as it first started…read more We got the 5 handroll, everything was fresh and tasty. Service is fast and friendly. My favorite handroll place in the area.

Came here to try the Dine LA deal, since they extended the dates. It lined up with Yakiniku Week,…read morewhere they were offering a complimentary course, so the timing worked out great! A5 Wagyu Tartelette with caviar 9/10: delicious tartare and truffle flavor paired well, it had a bit too much truffle where we couldn't appreciate the Wagyu flavor as much because of it Smoked ribeye tataki 10/10: delicious smoked flavor. Typically I'm skeptical that are as just extra fluff for visuals, but these micro greens actually paired so well with the smokey meat flavor. Chawanmushi 7/10: classic Chawanmushi, egg was cooked well, not particularly better than others I've had. The Dine LA menu says it is with uni and okra, but ours today was abalone and mushroom, which were still delicious. Prime ribeye 9/10: delicious soft and tender. They cook each piece for you Dry aged ribeye 10/10: not part of Dine LA deal. this was the complementary course for Yakiniku week. Had some extra flavor due to being dry aged 3-4 weeks. Wish it was part of the set menu! Wagyu short rib 10/10: favorite of the night! Melts in your mouth and delicious beef flavor Filet mignon 7/10: classic filet, soft. They serve it with the bone marrow rice. It was a bit bland so I'm glad they serve it with wasabi. If you haven't tried steak with wasabi, give it a shot. Bone marrow rice 10/10: prepared table side. The kimchi, mushroom, seaweed all pair well with the rice. Rice itself was cooked well. It wasn't overly salty or savory, it was a good balance of buttery flavor. Miso cappuccino ice cream 4/10: the vanilla bean ice cream was a bit icy rather than creamy. The miso cappuccino foam was too salty personally for me. There was a strong coffee flavor, but it was overpowered by the saltines. Imperial palace cocktail 9/10: not part of the set menu. It was a good balance of Yuzu and whiskey. Often times when you order a Yuzu cocktail it just has a generic citrus flavor, but this one was a true strong yuzu flavor. Refreshing and complimented the savory meat dishes Overall, it's pricey for the amount of food you get, but that's expected with a premium wagyu set dinner. Especially if we did not get the complimentary course, it is a small amount of food for the $78 set and you won't leave full. But the quality and taste were premium. Service: very kind and attentive staff. They even gave us a complementary palate cleanser dish, and a scallion sauce to try. Ambiance: spacious dining room, we did not leave smelling like smoke or barbecue. The bathrooms are clean and have fancy Japanese toilets. There's a big parking lot out front, which was easy to find parking.

Ambiance: elegant and high class, darkened room for the romantic vibe, open kitchen concept, posh…read moreService: exceptional service, but towards the end of our meal when the restaurant was filled people, I can tell that it was hard for the servers to upkeep the back to back delivery of the food for every table and we were left waiting longer in between the last few courses of the menu. Food: the quality of the food is in no doubt high-end. My favorites from the 15 course were the a5 wagyu tartlette, the black cod, and the white chocolate dessert. However, I felt that at the same price point, the wow factor left room for improvement compared to a prix fixe menu elsewhere. In addition, perhaps because the meat has to be cold before hitting the grill, even though the cook to rare was perfect, it left the mouthfeel of it being lukewarm albiet being freshly off the grill. For this reason, this would be one and done for me. I can't say that it justified the price tag of $128.

Not sure about street parking. There's not a lot of lightning at night except for the business signages that do give off lighting. Upon entry, I was greeted and seated right away. Came here during late lunch so they weren't super busy. Not a big restaurant with a capacity of about 40 people. One all gender restroom available for customer use only. Lunch special menu was available. Other menu had main items, appetizers, and drinks. Prices were fairly reasonable. They are known for their famous pork katsu. I am not a big katsu fan so I didn't get it. Mochi Udon looked interesting so I got it with the Chicken Karaage (free offer from food passport... stamp #10) plus water. While I was waiting for my order, I was fascinated by all the different designed ducks displayed on the window sills and front counter. I am curious about their duck story. Inquirer wants to know. Mochi Udon bowl came out piping hot and steamy. A small plate of cabbage came with it. The bowl's nice presentation made it pleasantly appetizing. Broth was savory and slightly sweet in a good soothing way. Udon noodles tasted homemade... very bouncy and slippery. YUM! Two mochis were soft and chewy. Fish cakes were fresh and delicious. One chicken piece was moist and tender. Wished there was one or two more chicken pieces though... one was just a teaser! Chicken Karaage was the best looking and tasting plate I have ever had. I was impressed with its presentation and the mochi-like batter taste. Chicken was very moist. I enjoyed it very much. SO GOOD! Highly recommend. Thanks Ducks! Staff was friendly and nice.

The beef was also very tender and juicy. However, I wish the flavor of the curry permeated more into the beef as the beef tasted a little underseasoned.

It was chewy but bordering a little too chewy/ hard. I wish it was cooked for 30-60s longer! Other than that, flavor of he broth was good. The lunch set was a good amount of food and I left feeling full (couldnt finish my rice as it was too much carbs). Service is good and the restaurant was not too crowded when I was there. Would love to come back again to support a local restaurant and try out other stuff on their menu!

My wife found Tendon Tempura Carlos Junior, which looked promising. We just had no idea who Carlos is. We arrived at around 11:52 am and put our name on the waitlist. While we waited, we scanned the QR code and found out that Carlos is the Peru-born chef and owner who moved to Japan to perfect the art of tempura. This obviously meant that tempura was a must-order item, but there were other tempting menu items such as tuna donburi, sashimi, and sushi. After about fifteen minutes, the two waitresses seated us indoors and grabbed our waters and menus. The restaurant itself was on the smaller side but had counter seating, five tables, and outdoor seating. We think Carlos was actually working diligently behind the counter. I couldn't take my eyes off the Carlos jewel box, tempura scallop, shrimp, and squid served with fresh ahi, salmon, and yellowtail over a bed of rice. I ultimately ordered the Carlos jewel box AND the premium tendon bowl (eel, shrimp, and mixed seafood tempura). My wife opted for the tuna bowl with cold soba and mooched off the kid's shrimp tempura. Now, we have been to Japan before and indulged in fresh sashimi and fried tempura. One bite of Tendon Tempura's food transported me back to a small mom-and-pop shop in Japan.
