“The sashimi at Shirube is absolutely top-notch — incredibly fresh and beautifully presented, with a level of care and attention to detail in every single piece.
Our server, Rozabelle, was exceptionally kind and attentive. She went above and beyond to make our dining experience truly special.
Highly recommend this spot for anyone looking for outstanding Japanese cuisine paired with warm, thoughtful service!“

“Best seafood and Japanese food I've ever had in my life — not exaggerating. The freshest seafood you'll ever taste. I brought multiple people here and they agree I'm not exaggerating. The quality is unlike anything else in LA. Everything is incredible but the raw seafood gets the most special shoutout.“

“Izakaya Mi Young (美荣) in Ktown is a hidden gem tucked away in a basement — perfect for a late-night drink. It’s relatively under-the-radar; you’ll need to walk down a stairwell to find it, giving it that “hidden in plain sight” charm. But the food and drinks? Truly impressive.
The decor has an atmospheric Tokyo vibe — exactly how I imagine an izakaya next to a subway exit in Japan. Each table has a ukiyo-e curtain for privacy, but sitting at the bar also has its own cozy appeal.
The menu covers everything from yakitori and sushi to traditional Japanese street snacks and sashimi. I especially loved their highballs — the yuzu and Earl Grey flavors stood out. We ordered several pieces of the chef’s special sushi, all incredibly fresh. The uni-scallop sushi was heavenly. The yakitori, cheesy eel, okonomiyaki, and agedashi tofu were all perfect drinking snacks, but our top favorite of the night was the butter-grilled abalone — so good we wanted an encore!
After just one visit, I already can’t wait to go back. It’s officially my new Ktown treasure. Bonus: they have parking validation, the prices are reasonable, and it’s just the perfect place for a slightly tipsy, blissful night.“

“The service is on point and the food selection is perfect for a variety of hunger levels. From nigiri to udon (curry udon has stellar flavor for vegetarian or non-fish-lover friends), I haven't found a single thing to complain about. I visit LAX every few months and look forward to the next dish I get to try out next.
Vegetarian options: Curry Udon was delicious.“

“Great spot tucked into a tiny strip center area. Plenty of seating, including sushi bar seating. My orders of maguro nigiri and yellowtail nigiri were very fresh. The spicier tuna roll was delicious as well. Complimented by attentive service and a laid back atmosphere, this made for a perfect spot. 👏“

“Hidden gem. Noticeably high quality ingredients and great service. Even my Korean mom, who is germaphobic and difficult to impress, enjoyed her meal very much. Will be coming here again.
We ordered the oyster/uni (!), the baked scallop roll (!), the chirashi bowl, the sea cucumber, and the spicy japan scallop roll. Everything tasted fantastic and we didn't leave a single grain of rice.
In my opinion, it's rare to encounter Japanese food in America that I end up loving. Every raw ingredient looked and tasted fresh. Uni here was creamy, the green tea was well-steeped, and the sesame seeds on the spicy japan roll were aromatic.
I highly recommend that you come here for a special occasion or whenever you crave extremely FRESH Japanese food.“
“my boyfriend and I made a reservation the day of at 10:15 and there was no wait when we arrived. ambience was lively. host and staff were so friendly and welcoming. we ordered a total of 6 dishes because they are small portions: mixed rice with duck, squid plate, duck meatball, broccolini, pork gyoza, house ramen (total came out to ~100$)
everything was so amazing (especially the squid) and as someone who doesn't eat much, I could've honestly kept eating forever.“

“Unexpected find in a quiet little plaza in West Hollywood—easily the best unagi don I’ve had in SoCal. Two styles, both incredible, but the hitsumabushi stole the show. Could’ve eaten three more bowls without hesitation. 😋“

“While the ramen is quite good, try their other non-ramen offerings. Katsu curry rice is very good here (katsu pork was prepared perfectly and curry flavorful) as well as their gyudon (beef over rice). Service as fast, friendly and attentive and the dining area was very clean. Value for the meal is excellent especially for West LA! Cannot recommend enough!“

“Shoutout to our server Danny for being so friendly, and accommodating. We asked for a few extra things that were weird asks because I’m pregnant and he didn’t say no, but figured out a way to make it happen.
The food is also very fast and delicious and the presentation was on point. This is our favorite sushi spot in our neighborhood by far.“
