Had a date night with my husband at Ikigai during our LA trip, recommended by a family member that lives around the area. We were mind blown of how delicious and fresh everything was. Then 24 hours later I realized I left my purse with absolutely every ID I own and had to fly back to the East Coast REALLY soon. They were so nice, answered my DM right away, I picked it up and made it to my flight:) thank you!! We’ll see you again
