Midoh - Sawtelle Reviews
We wanted some omurice. We found the perfect place.
It is just so perfect! I usually can't finish tonkatsu because it makes me feel sick after a few pieces, but this place had a great tonkatsu, with think fried surface, and quite some good amount of vegetables and enough sauce to dip in! This jas just become my favorite Japanese restaurant!
Really chill restaurant! It’s very roomy and wasn’t too buy. Great for large groups.

Midoh - Sawtelle is a Japanese comfort food restaurant with a clean and modern setting. The menu features excellent drinks and curries, including curry udon, tofu curry, and katsu with curry, although many of the specials and menu items contain pork. The restaurant is attentive to dietary restrictions, but it's best to inquire about specific ingredients. Parking can be challenging in the area, but the restaurant offers validated parking in the underground lot for one hour, with charges for additional time.
The restaurant is spacious and suitable for groups, with plenty of seating available. The booth seating is nice but may lack support and be uncomfortable for some. The food is delicious and reasonably priced, with highlights like the rich and flavorful curry rice with cheese on top, hamburger steak, and udon. The service has been described as fast and friendly by some, though others find it just "ok" with minimal attention, needing to ask for drink refills and assistance.
The ambiance is cozy and somewhat casual, making it an ideal spot for a relaxing lunch or dinner with friends. Some customers recommend sticking to the dishes Midoh excels at, like the pork katsu with its spicy mustard sauce and the Hamburg steak with teriyaki sauce, while others note that not every dish hits the mark, such as the overly heavy Carbonara or the udon that was sweet but lacked salt. Despite these mixed reviews, Midoh - Sawtelle remains a popular hidden gem in Sawtelle Japantown, with many customers eager to return for different dishes.
