26 Best Asian Restaurants in Los Angeles

“Everything was amazing, the tea was heavenly. I just wish I knew what kind of tea they use. I fell in love with the toast, and I was so surprised that I couldn’t get it to go — I wanted to take three more with me 😭 Can someone explain why that is?“

“A really wonderful dining experience! The food is so creative while maintaining integrity to both Thai and Japanese cuisines. It was really fun to be all seated at the bar for the Autumn kaiseki menu. The sommelier was so fun and friendly and recommended not only incredible wines, but bonus sake tastings well. it's the kind of place that does a fixed menu, but you wanna keep going back because it rotates and everyone's so friendly a perfect blend of upscale and Neighbourhood vibe..“

“Rasarumah is a great find and well deserving of its Michelin Bib Gourmand recognition. I came here with a friend and we ordered a few dishes to share, and everything we had was excellent.

The char kway teow stood out right away. The stir-fried noodles had great flavor and texture, with Chinese sausage and fried fish cake adding a nice balance of savory and slightly sweet notes.

We also ordered the fried Hainan chicken with garlic rice. The chicken was crispy on the outside while still juicy, and the garlic rice was fragrant and really satisfying.

For dessert we finished with the cendol sundae with coconut pandan ice cream. It was refreshing and a great way to end the meal, with the pandan and coconut flavors coming through nicely.

Overall, a really enjoyable meal and a spot I would happily come back to.“

“The food is sooooo good!!! It’s my comfort food now but the service is awful…We were the only customers in the restaurant at that time. When I asked for two pairs of chopsticks at the counter, the staff member appeared to ignore me completely. I had to repeat my request twice before she reluctantly looked up and threw the chopsticks at me. The service was disappointing and unnecessarily rude.“

“RUN DONT WALK to this restaurant the food was truly phenomenal, ordered the sushi omikase for 80$ a person the variation of different fish and the quality of the cuts was amazing. The staff was super friendly and attentive. Parking is a bit limited but it’s definitely worth the trip.“

“Really excited about this restaurant, one of the few Chinese American restaurants serving refined Chinese dish with a twist. We were seated immediately once everyone in our party of 4 has arrived. It is an open kitchen concept so you could take a peek of the action from the dining room. We visited this place after it just made the Michelin guide list, so there was quite a buzz on that Sunday evening. The cocktail selections are great and tasty, interesting mixes of East and West. The sesame sourdough and the seaweed butter are excellent. The wagyu beef tongue carpaccio is a bit too saucy. The duck sausage meatball and the Poached scallops are good but nothing special. The Roasted fish, Grilled short rib and the fried chicken are amazing and well prepared and seasoned. However the Roast Pork is chewy and not very good. Vanilla sponge dessert is delicious.“

“My first time there and I had a really great time, the food was delicious and our Servers were Amazing. Loved it!!“

“good. service the. Lady. snow. that's. does. my. pedi. she. does. a. good job“

“I’ve been coming here for years because I literally live a block away. The place has increased in price since I first came here and the menu has changed and what I used to get is no longer on the menu. LION KING ROLL is my goto. It’s delicious. However….. Today as I approached the counter to get my food, a homeless girl walks in barges right next to me as my order is being processed and given to me, and asks “y’all got any miso soup?!?” Stinky and obviously covered in filth, no bath for probably years and a dirty soiled blanket wrapped around her, I was instantaneously disgusted. Miso soup was given to her and I don’t know what else because I got outta there before she could even ask me for money or whatever! You feed a pigeon and what happens??? A dozen or more come. This is a simile; a point I’m trying to make. Homeless are the root of the problems here in Koreatown. You feeding them is the hand the feeds the problem.“

“I finally made it to Chibiscus and had an excellent meal. It is a small shop with a few tables and has some cute decor. And it has parking!!!  There is street parking as well if the lot is full. It is not a huge book of a menu. But the choices are well done, and everyone should be able to find something they want here. I started with the veggie potstickers and a spicy tuna hand roll. And then had the chicken curry dish as my entrée. Do not order too much at first, save some room for dessert. Oh my gosh! The desserts look amazing, and folks drive from all over for the brick toasts here. My food arrived after just a bit. The potstickers were good. Good flavor and not overcooked, along with a nice dipping sauce. The spicy tuna handroll was huge! What a deal! Maybe 6-7 bites to eat it all. The curry came out and was a good amount of food, just like everything else that had already been served. A large scoop of rice, some pickled ginger and a big bowl of Curried chicken came out. It was really hot, and I needed to let it cool a bit before digging in. It had a nice flavor, like a brown sauce with curry added maybe(?). Potatoes, carrots, and plenty of chicken, it was a good amount of food. I probably should have taken some food home but ended up just eating everything there. Next time, dessert!“

“First time tonight, but definitely not the last! They have a great delicious variety of Thai & Vietnamese food. It is a cozy spot with a great vibe. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable. Their prices are reasonable and they have free parking available (limited) as well.“

“We've been coming here for 20 years and I think this is the best Thai food in Los Angeles. They use high quality meat and seafood and the taste is very authentic. Their chicken basil and spicy shrimp are a couple of our favorites. The staff here are so sweet. Family owned and operated. Thai food absolutely does not get better than this!!!“

“Going here is a trade-off: you get good food quality and quantity, but the service and vibe are bad. You’ll eat well, but the hostess might be rude and you’ll likely have to wait. $30 for all-you-can-eat sushi is a fair price for those concessions.

The tablet ordering is good because you don’t have to deal with the staff. Once you actually sit down and start ordering, the service is quick. The sushi was high quality and Menu A has enough variety. They constantly nag you about the 90-minute limit, the wait times between rounds, and the extra charges for unfinished food. It’s annoying, but it won't stop me from stuffing my face.“

“10 out of 10!!!
Wow exceeded my expectations
A Must go! I’ve been to so many Asian bowl places! This is my fave!

Got the rainbow don (included piping hot miso)
Lots of warm rice with furikake-like seasonings
It doesn't even need spicy mayo and all those other things poke places have“

“Delicious food, Always good quality. I have been going here weekly for over a year. The only thing that is frustrating, is that their closing time is not accurate with what they have it listed on google, I’ve had doordash orders go through that never came in, and i showed up to the location to be denied.. 30 minutes before listed closing time.“

“Seeing other customers throwing money at the server, seemingly because they scanned a takeout qrcode to dine in, and seeing the server cry on Thanksgiving，anyway treating a server like that is rude and barbaric. I also hope the restaurant can adjust the spiciness of their hot pot it's just too spicy“

“Good food, I got the #1 and the portions were very filling. They offer samples of the teriyaki chicken which got me to order the dish. Although the actual dish wasn't as sauced, the meat was still tender and tasty. Only downside was that some bites of rice were uncooked.“

“First time visit, it was a beautiful establishment. The servers are wonderful and the food is amazing. I highly recommend this place. I don't like crowds so it was perfect for lunch I'm sure this place would been super busy for the night life.“

“Vegan review:

The food quality is really great. Tastes fresh and crunchy and its really good. I got the vegetable roll and it was good. Only reason for 4 stars is price. For what it is and where it is and how much was in the roll, especially it being only vegetables, it was quite expensive. I mean not too much but for the price a larger quality would be better.“

“The ambiance, food and service is great! Will be back definitely 💯!“

“This place is amazing. I crave it every week. Get the spicy lamb skewers, peanut noodles, cucumber salad, and 100% at least one order of the sweet and sour pork. Dip in the peanut noodle sauce! Got the leeks for the first time this time, eat it with the lamb sooo good.
Imo is so kind, and the prices are very reasonable!“

“Have been to Eagle Rock Kitchen many times and like it. Fast and friendly service, delicious and nutritious meals, vegan included. I recommend ERK whether your vegetarian or not. A lot of choices.“

“Muy buena comida y buena atención!💯“

“Was recommended to me by two people so decided to try it. It was busy for a mid-week evening. I quickly sat at the bar since most seating was full. I ordered a Spicy Tuna Handroll, Rainbow Roll, and the Spanish Mackerel. The price was definitely more than I usually pay but it was definitely fresh quality. The staff was nice and attentive. Would definitely stop by again and try some other items that caught my eye. Parking was not hard to find.“

“Excellent bahn mi! Pictured is the classic cold cut sandwich that comes with a deliciously salty sauce on the side. The bread is the ideal texture of crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside. If you love bahn mis, this place will not disappoint! The staff is also very friendly.“

“Food was good. Pork estofado is the best.
But their system is kinda chaotic the labels for the food dont match the food it is on. Or sometimes the food doesn’t have label/name on it so you would have to guess or point the food out to the server which is inconvenient if there is a long line. Please put names on the individual food.“
