Amazing food. Chef kiyoshiro Makes beautiful delicious food. The care and attention to detail for all the ingredients is amazing. The flavors and taste profiles are near perfection. Nothing overwhelms. Perfectly balanced. Subtle yet sublime.
TL:DR: You have to like uni and truffles. Chef Yama is extremely generous with these two. You will get to the point where you can't eat anymore and still eat it because the meal isn't cheap. LOL.
To eat here you'll have to go to their website where they will contact you and request a non-refundable deposit. Once you arrive you'll find the place in a tiny shopping mall with blacked out windows and no signage which adds to the exclusivity of the place. Definitely worth the experience and a try as the dishes are unique. He likes to explore his own style of food. I liked the various dishes minus the A5 wagyu which was peppered too much and unfortunately, that overpowered the taste of the meat.
Higher end omakase restaurant. Food was nothing short of amazing! With the higher price tag, you're also paying for a unique experience.
Best Japanese cuisine in LA. Excellent quality of food and delicious preparation. If you like uni, Toro, truffles, etc this is the place for you. It's a great to come here and we fall in love with the food every time.
