Umaya LA - Kaiseki & Sushi offers a memorable dining experience with its inviting atmosphere and beautiful presentation. This upscale Japanese restaurant, located in the heart of Koreatown, Los Angeles, is known for its fresh fish, creamy desserts, and attentive service. Chef Nao Sugiyama, with over 50 years of culinary mastery, specializes in kaiseki, the traditional Japanese multi-course dining experience that emphasizes seasonality, balance, and artistry.
The lunch omakase provides a fun and interactive experience, allowing diners to create their own sushi with a variety of ingredients. The beautifully curated kaiseki menu features stunning and fresh sashimi, alongside exquisite dishes like grilled lobster with uni, melt-in-your-mouth black cod, wagyu beef on hot stone, and Chef Sugiyama’s signature dashi seafood broth, rich in umami flavors.
The knowledgeable staff can recommend the perfect sake and red wine pairings to enhance the meal. The restaurant also has a full bar with a good selection of Japanese whiskeys and other spirits. Despite being more spacious than it appears, the place can get busy, and service may slow down during peak times. The attentive service explains each dish as it arrives, contributing to the overall experience. With great food, drinks, and service, Umaya LA is a must-visit for anyone seeking authentic, refined Japanese dining in LA or OC.
