Izakaya Restaurants near Glendale, CA

“A hidden gem in Montrose. Very good food, attentive service, reasonable price.“

“สนุกสนานอาหารอร่อย บรรยากาศดีมีระดับ“

“The food was amazing. The sweet potato was something I never had in my whole life. I have been to 39 countries for work and have eaten so many foods and I have never tasted anything close to it. The aburi salmon was delicious as well. However the star of the show: Our server Nic. He was one of the best most down to earth servers I have ever had in my life. He was patient, recommended the best things on the menu including the sweet potato. And my glass of water was never empty. You would think going to a trendy restaurant that maybe there would be a stuck-up atmosphere. But no all the servers and waiters were extremely friendly. Although the sweet potato is not something I had before in my life, I think Nic was one of the best servers. I got. Although pricey it was worth any penny. We'll be back in a week.“

“Everything was perfect, fave drink was lychee martini and in the morning strawberry matcha. For dinner we loved the rib eye, ceviche, tuna tartar and chicken the most. The Caesar salad was unique and I really enjoyed it. Miso eggplant also great! We were so full and didn’t think we could eat any more but The sorbet at the end was delicious, super light and refreshing. Service was friendly, atmosphere very pretty.“

“Bomb sushi!!!! Everything was wonderful, can’t say anything bad. Good rolls and gotta try the crispy rice for an appetizer😀“

“Friendly staff, excellent food, and great atmosphere all around. Staff are very attentive to your needs.

There's a very good chance you might have missed this restaurant as it slightly off the beaten path but this is one of the best dining experience I had in Little Tokyo. I've been here multiple times before and it's been exquisite experience every time.

Price of food is similar to any other sushi restaurants you'd find in the central plaza but their quality stands above the rest.

I would highly recommend this place to anyone wanting to simply eat great food.

Keep in mind of their hours of operations as they have a small break in their service to swap from their lunch menu to dinner menu.“

“super friendly staff and awesome manager who didn't blink an eye and replaced my mom and aunts order to accommodate their health conditions. bomb food and and super fast serve time. will be back again Special shout out to Damont for being an awesome manager!“

“Visiting from out of town, and happened to have dinner here. I liked that the place was easy to find, and had lots of parking. The service was top notch! Very attentive, quick, and friendly! Hubby had the lime and chili ramen and really enjoyed it. It was very flavorful. I had the yakisoba noodles with pork. The pork was lovely and well cooked. Very tender! But, for me, the sauce on the noodles was really heavy on vinegar. I was expecting/wanting a more savory/umami flavor. They were way too sour for my taste. I’m certain that there would have been a lot of other menu items I would have enjoyed! I wish I’d tried their miso ramen instead of the yakisoba.“

“spacy garlic edamame is vary delicious.!!“

“This was my first time visiting this place, and I have to say, the only ones truly making it stand out are the servers. Those girls are amazing! Even though the space is small and seating is limited, they know how to make every guest feel welcome. Honestly, I’m only coming back for their incredible service. Please consider giving these girls a well-deserved raise!“

“Izakaya Miyoung is an absolute hidden gem! We ordered the yakitori skewers, fish cake soup, and chicken wings, and let me tell you, every single bite was delicious. The portions were perfect for sharing, making it a great spot to come with friends.

Our waiter was fantastic, attentive, friendly, and spot-on with his sake recommendation, which paired beautifully with our food. The vibe here is warm and inviting, and I loved the interior design, it really adds to the whole experience.

This place is definitely going on my list of go-to spots. Can’t wait to come back, have some drinks, and try even more dishes from the menu!“

“Delicious Udon and other Japanese specialties“

“I love this place! The food is fantastic! And I’m a regular for a reason 😉“

“Ramen were super good and excellent customer service.“

“This is my second time at Hatch. Loved the ambiance and the service was outstanding! Anthony was especially great! Great customer service! I loved the soft shell crab taco so much so I ordered it twice. 2 of the dishes I tried weren't my favorite but overall food was good . Will definitely be back preferably with a group so I can try more dishes!“

“The food is all excellent, the service exactly what it should be (neither intrusive or absent), and a wide variety of price points that should satisfy any budget. Highly recommended - We’ll definitely be back! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“The flavors of all the food was amazing.... everything on the menu was intriguing , I wish I tried it all!“

“Best Sushi in LA by far !“

“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. 😋“

“The staff are amazing at this restaurant and I hope this compliment get passed all the way up the ladder. Everyone was polite, looked professional, and acted in a way that seemed genuinely friendly and personable.

Not only that but the place is spotless. They keep this place very clean.

The sushi itself is some of the best I've had and I’ve had a lot of sushi. I'll definitely be returning with friends this is a top notch dining experience in every sense and they deserve every 5-star review they’ve got and many more to come.“

“As my first time coming to this place it’s very awesome to say the least, the experience was absolutely great, the quality of the sushi exceded my expectations and the staff was extremely friendly especially our server Vee! She was the best! I would definitely come again!! Restrooms are also clean that’s always a plus!“

“This place was awesome. the fish was extremely good and the service was fast. I'm not sure why it is rated so poorly, but I had a wonderful experience here and I would definitely return if I lived in the area!“

“The best everything…so, Go!“

“Best sushi in the city! You feel like you’re in Tokyo.“

“Shin-Sen-Gumi Yakitori & Men-Ya in Alhambra is my favorite Izakaya and ramen joint in L.A. They have a lot of creative Izakaya dishes to choose from along with yakitori dishes on top of their famed ramen. If you like authentic Japanese food, this is a must as everything I've ordered is fresh, delicious and well-done.“

“Great spot for the price and the location! The fish is always super fresh, and the staff couldn’t be friendlier. 🍣

Highly recommend the fatty tuna sushi - it’s incredible, and the truffle salmon blue crab roll is a must-try! 😋

Only downside: the draft beer is out of stock often times. 🍺

Otherwise, totally recommend this place!“
