Daichan is the best restaurant in LA. The food is 100% delicious, the interiors are perfectly homey and comforting and distinct, and the service is impeccable. I want to eat here every day.
We’ve been going to Daichan for decades and they never disappoint. The quirky Japanese decor, the kindness and care of the serving staff, and the quality of the food have all remained constant over the three decades Daichan has been serving Angelenos. They have become part of our family. ❤❤❤
Tasty. We got the baby garlic octopus, crunchy spicy tuna, curry udon and katsu chicken curry with rice.

Daichan in Studio City offers a large menu of delicious Japanese comfort food in a cozy, welcoming setting. The interior has a warm, worn-in style with traditional Japanese decor, creating a friendly atmosphere. The staff are attentive and friendly, providing great service that many customers praise. Dishes like the baby squid, miso eggplant, and Daichan special with chicken are soul-warming and flavorful. The miso soup is well-made, and the chicken/tofu meatballs are slightly sweet and filling. The Hot Pot and Shrimp Tempura Udon have amazing flavors, with the tempura being perfectly crispy. The crispy tuna rice starters are large with the perfect crunch, and the fish served melts in the mouth. The Daichan beef teriyaki special bento box is tender and flavorful. The restaurant is busy, but the food is always worth the wait, making it a must-visit for those who enjoy Japanese cuisine. Customers also enjoy the authentic feel, the fresh ingredients like organic eggs, and the warm, inviting atmosphere.
