Kagura El Segundo Reviews
Incredibly good. Wow. We were both sad when it was gone! We got the crispy spicy tuna, niku udon, and the sushi gozen. Everything was delicious. A little pricey, but worth it.

Kagura El Segundo is a great place for Japanese cuisine, known for its excellent food and lovely atmosphere. Customers enjoy their Steak Gozen, which comes with a variety of accompaniments, as well as their delightful sushi. The service is efficient and friendly, with many diners appreciating the authentic Japanese food, including dishes like sashimi, tako wasabi, and sizzling beef on the skillet, which is often served with onions and may be USDA prime sirloin. The Gindara Saikyoyaki Bento has also received praise for its delicious taste. The restaurant offers a tiny, homey environment that feels like a hole in the wall, creating a welcoming setup for dining with friends and neighbors. While some mention that the miso soup and soba can be underwhelming, the pork cutlet and gindara dishes are well-liked. The restaurant is popular, especially on weekends when reservations are recommended, and parking is easy with street parking available. Overall, Kagura El Segundo is a beloved spot for affordable and delicious Japanese food, providing a great experience for those looking for a tasty meal near LAX.
