Gyoza Bar "Japanese Dumpling"

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!

A friend of mine found this place on instagram and wanted to try it out. The food was very average. Nothing overwhelmingly delicious and we probably will not come back. The restaurant is very very small but it was not at all busy on a Saturday for lunch. Service was good. Price was okay but then the dishes are very small. The gyoza was not special at all. The most tasty dish was the crispy rice with spicy tuna. Everything else was just not memorable.

The best pork bowl i ever eat!!
Gyoza is really good too.
Attendant was very nice :)

BOMB!!! Absolutely obsessed with this place. Gyoza Bar is hands-down one of the best new spots in Silverlake. The vibe is effortlessly cool—minimalist yet warm, with the kind of laid-back energy that makes you want to settle in for hours. But let’s talk about the food: next level.

The gyoza are chef’s kiss—crispy on the outside, juicy and flavorful on the inside. You can tell they’re handmade with care. The pork and chicken were standouts, but the vegan option was just as delicious. Don’t skip the dipping sauces—they elevate everything.

It feels like a ramen counter straight from tokyo. The crimson glow lighting. The bar-only seating. You won’t find extra flourishes, just well executed staples. From every staff member, service is swift and polite.

The pork gyoza arrives crisp-bottomed and sizzling with a juicy filling that’s both savory and soothing. The tsukemen dipping noodles are cool, firm, and deeply enjoyable. These noodles are meant to be dipped into a heady broth, a blend of heat and warmth. Like a ritual: you dip, you slurp until nothing remains. The crispy rice with spicy tuna seemingly never disappoints with this one exhibiting genuinely spicy, fresh jalaneño. The well-spiced ground pork in the bean sprouts with spicy pork complements the fresh snap of sprouts and the subtle sharpness of leek. Finally, the buckwheat tea. Healthful wonderfully aromatic brew that is entirely gluten-free despite its misleading name. Ultimately, the restaurant delivers on its promise: an excellent journey into precise, authentic japanese flavors.

Amazing tsukemen and crisp rice. Quick, delicious and great service.

I had the privilege to visit this establishment recently and with that being said, I was expecting to be blown away by the Gyoza, but instead I was pulled in by the pork belly and noodles instead. The atmosphere inside is great and the service was well overall. The rice on the other hand was very sad, especially being paired with such great pork. My overall experience was okay, but honestly for the quality of the food not worth the price in my opinion. Buy give it a try if your searching something a little different.

Not even open on time

TODAY WAS MY FIRST TIME I CAME TO THIS PLACE AND AM EXTREMELY SHOCKED AND DISAPPOINTED WITH THE SERVICE I RECEIVED. I was came in to sit with my friend and I started speaking in SPANISH with my friend because she is learning Spanish (and getting good at it), because I am Mexican and I can speak two languages, yes. And at one point the server, whose name I did not get but is a man of older age, grey hair, wears glasses, and who mentioned he was from a Mormon background (information no one asked for) told me to “say it in English” referring for me to say whatever I was saying in English instead of Spanish. I HAVE NEVER experienced this before, being a woman of color this completely shook me. I AM ASTONISHED that in this day and age people still think that it is okay to say something like this. Going to places like these who have these kind of people serving is extremely disappointing, hopefully someone who is more decent can take his place because seriously I don’t know in what world he thought that was okay to say, I’m here to tell you it is NOT. Please LEARN to THINK before saying whatever you are going to say. This is Los Angeles, I am born and raised here and this is a diverse city where many languages are spoken and if you don’t like that, then you obviously are in the wrong place and need to seriously reevaluate yourself.

A perfect night out in echo park would start here - line your stomach with yummy gyoza, sashimi, a rice or noodle dish, the spicy tuna crispy rice FOR SURE and pair with a sake or beer - then go out on the town and drink more! Or simply come especially on a weeknight for good vibes and great food. The red light is very flattering for a date night and so is the cozy seating.
