50 Best Asian Fusion Restaurants near Toluca Lake

“Great food and lovely owners - would recommend“

“One of our favorite restaurants! Everything here is delicious, the people are wonderful, you never wait long AND the prices are great! Also - get the "Dynamite Fries" - you're welcome. Love this place!“

“Finally stopped by for dinner on the way home after always driving by, and so glad I did! Seems like a delivery/pickup heavy spot so I basically had the dining room to myself. Very kind and friendly staff, great prices, and ridiculously good food with big portions. A good strong Thai iced coffee, perfectly seasoned crispy pork with Chinese broccoli, and delicious siumai. My food photography is trash, but good lord this was a great meal. You can hear the woks firing off in the back and taste how incredibly fresh everything is.

Will be stopping by far more often and bringing friends for sure. Thank you for the meal!“

“We had a 9PM, Sunday reservation at Sora Craft Kitchen, and when we first pulled up, we genuinely thought we were at the wrong place. The surrounding area is very dark and industrial at night, there were barely any cars around, and from the outside you would never expect what’s waiting for you inside.

The second we walked in, it was a completely different atmosphere. It was quiet and super ambient. One thing that immediately surprised me was that it didn’t smell like at all. We were greeted by the chef himself, and seeing him prepare everything right in front of us made the experience even more special. He was essentially running the kitchen himself, yet every dish came out surprisingly fast, fresh, and beautifully prepared.

We started with the Dry-Aged Tenderloin Shish Kebab, and that alone immediately set the tone for dinner. The beef was incredibly flavorful and tender.

Then the chef brought out the Mastabe and PLEASE!! If you come here, ORDER THIS. It ended up becoming the staple of our entire dinner. It’s this creamy house-made yogurt, we literally started adding it to EVERYTHING. The garlicky, creamy freshness somehow complemented every meat and every dish without overpowering anything.

Next came the Siverek Tava, and this one completely blew me away. The combination of ground beef, tomato, and roasted eggplant was incredible. My boyfriend HATES eggplant. Like, refuses to order anything with eggplant level of hate. Even he was shocked at how good it was and how perfectly the eggplant worked with the beef. Huge props to the chef because changing someone's mind about an ingredient they swear they hate says a lot.

The Grilled Branzino came next and was a perfect change of pace. Simple, fresh, perfectly grilled, and topped with vegetables. After all the richer flavors, the fish felt light and refreshing while still having plenty of flavor.

Then we had the Icli Kofte, which might have been one of the biggest surprises of the night. I wasn't expecting such an explosion of flavor from this dish.

Our last savory dish was the Garlic-Spiced Kebab. At this point I was so full and genuinely thought there was no way I was going to finish another dish... and then I kept eating it. It was smoky, garlicky, juicy, and so flavorful that I literally couldn't stop.

And somehow we still made room for dessert.

We finished with the Cheese Halva with Yuzu–Black Sesame Ice Cream, and it was the PERFECT ending. The warm cheese halva practically melted in our mouths. While the ice cream had this refreshing flavor that reminded us of mint and pistachio. The pistachio pieces underneath added the perfect crunch and texture to balance everything out.

What impressed me most about Sora wasn't just one specific dish. It was how thoughtfully everything paired together. Every dish tasted completely different. Nothing felt generic or like something you could order at any other restaurant. You can genuinely taste the freshness and the amount of thought the chef puts into the flavors, textures, and pairings.

Don't let the location fool you. Once you walk through those doors, it's this little hidden gem where the food completely speaks for itself.

Mastabe is NON-NEGOTIABLE. Order it and put it on everything.

Such an amazing dinner and the perfect way to end our day. We left ridiculously full and already talking about coming back. Easily one of the best meals we've had so far.“

“Good food big portions. Fast service.“

“Amazing food. Plate licking sauces, organic,locally sourced food. Korean fusion. Did I mention organic pickled everything. Enzyme rich food. Beyond healthy. Humble little hope in the wall run by a husband and wife team. Dude went to Korea to study with the most famous vegan nun chef in Korea. A must go to for anyone who loves food and especially loves fusion with organic and very well priced. He should charge Much more but they don’t.“

“Great service, tasty food, and amazing views. Good brunch spot.“

“I really want to give it five stars and I may come again in the future. The food is great, to be honest, the pork shoulder and mushroom rice is enough.“

“Excellent service, great food, too bad there wasn't extra room in the parking area.😊😊“

“Really good food worth of your money😊“

“Great asian fusion food. Awesome for happy hour!!“

“Coconut beef adobo and cornbread bibingka are outstanding!“

“Great place. Food tasted amazing.“

“Bento boxes are of great quality here. The attention to detail of this curated meal definitely lets your eyes feast first. All the little sides taste amazing, especially the candied sweet potatoes. The vegetables alternate between sweet and salty to balance out the meal. The Scottish salmon and mackerel are cooked to perfection. The little yolk in the rice also adds a nice touch to mix in and eat.“

“We were there opening day! It was great! Service was perfect and food was delicious. The gyoza's were the best, not dry, chewy, or doughy. The chicken and beef plate was perfect. Nice. clean interior. Best part? Walking distance from us. Welcome to the neighborhood!“

“If you love sushi and robots, Katana is it. Their sushi and robata plates are delicious (my personal favorites are the white lotus roll, fried rice, and grilled avocado). For anyone avoiding alcohol, their mocktails are also very tasty. The vibe is also great, I love the outdoor seating area.“

“Alvin was outstanding , my in-laws are Vietnamese and shhhhh don’t tell them but his food was amazing . I went with my wife and 3 kids and wow . Keep the amazing food coming and the outstanding customer service . If you’re travelling and need healthy amazing Vietnamese you just can’t go past this restaurant.“

“My girlfriend and I have been watching Jade for a year and FINALLY took a leap! I just landed back in LA from a vacay and was determined to go to Jade. My gf and I went, I resy, just decided based on timing. We ordered the DIY Hand Roll, Hamachi Crudo and Spicy Crispy Tuna. This was enough as we took food home. Every dish was fire. The fish was fresh, the Spicy Tuna Crispy Rice was unique and the flavor of all the dishes hit! Our server, Soyol was so humble and truly has a servant heart, 5 stars!!!! So glad we can this night as everyone from the door to our server were perfect and the food took the exit the experience to the next level!“

“amazing food and good for family“

“I had a great time over there. Delicious food 🥘“

“Delicious food. Fast service. Get here early to avoid a long line.“

“Great service and very friendly staff“

“We ordered the pork chop rice (豬排飯), beef noodle soup (牛肉麵), house cold noodles (雞絲涼麵), and popcorn chicken (鹽酥雞). The portions were massive, and everything tasted completely authentic to me. My absolute favorite was the pork chop rice, especially because it came topped with that savory minced pork belly. The service was fantastic, and the restaurant is incredibly clean and family-friendly.“

“The food was excellent and quite fresh. Some of the decor was nice but I didn't care for the bright neon lights and the repetitious techno music. It took me back to the 90's club scene. If they make slight modifications to make the style and make it a bit more up to date, it will be an excellent place. Also, there was one server on the floor the entire time which made the service slow and the restaurant a bit sad. Some of the folks in the kitchen, the owner, etc.. could be at the bar or working on the floor to make the space look a bit more lively.“

“beef Pho is excellent. chow fun us also very good“

“This place is the Go-To spot for sushi.. always fresh and delicious 😋“

“great food good service highly recommended“

“Excellent Filipino fusion food.“

“Food was fresh and delicious! It was very filling and not heavy. I appreciate the portions and presentation. The ladies were very kind and I appreciate the system of checking off everything you want. We took our own drinks and no issues there. Restaurant is on the smaller side (not many tables) but great if it's slow and/or if you want to pick up and eat at home or at a park. A little pricey but worth it!“

“The whole experience indoors or outdoors it is always wonderful“

“They have the best rolls! Very reasonable price. We eat here & to go very often“

“Had a great meal here before a show at the Paramount. My husband had fajitas and I had the potato dish with added rosemary potatoes 🤩. I couldn’t finish mine - very filling but absolutely delicious. The proprietor is welcoming and helpful. We will definitely return and I will make more sensible choices!“

“I don’t even know where to begin.

I was craving Korean food—specifically bulgogi and vegetables—and this place came up as a Top Eats recommendation with outstanding reviews. I took a chance… and wow, am I glad I did.

This is some of the best Korean food I’ve had. Everything tasted incredibly fresh, perfectly seasoned, and clearly made with care.

I ordered delivery, and even that was flawless. Everything was packaged thoughtfully, nothing spilled (including two drinks!), and every item that was supposed to be crispy actually stayed crispy. That’s rare.

The bulgogi is outstanding. Pair it with the glass noodles or the rice—or do what I did and get both. The house-made kimchi is absolutely delicious, and I took a gamble on ordering an entire bottle of their spicy mayo. Big mistake… because now I wish I’d ordered two.

The eggplant with crispy tofu and vegetables was another standout—savory, satisfying, and absolutely delicious, especially paired with that spicy mayo. The tofu stayed perfectly crisp, which made it even more impressive for delivery.

And then there’s the butterfly peach tea. I don’t know what kind of magic is in that drink, but it completely blew me away. Fresh, balanced, and easily one of the best teas I’ve ever had.

The bulgogi sandwich was rich, indulgent, and somehow still perfectly balanced. Every bite of everything I ordered made me think, “These people really know what they’re doing.”

In fact, I called the restaurant after my meal just to tell them how incredible everything was and to make sure the chef and the team heard how impressed I was. They were just as kind over the phone as their food was exceptional.

The portions are generous, the prices are more than fair, and every dollar felt well spent. Eating out isn’t cheap these days, but this is exactly the kind of place that’s worth it.

I genuinely can’t believe I didn’t know about this restaurant sooner, but I’m so glad I found it. I’ll absolutely be visiting in person because I want to thank the team myself.

10/10. One of those rare meals that exceeds every expectation. I can’t wait to work my way through the rest of the menu.“

“I was showing off telling a friend about this place , I have never been , but Mom and sis gave rave reviews all the time , an my nieces always talking about it out at the mall out in 6256 Topanga Canyon Blvd , So after a adventure shopping for materials for a outfit for one of her shows in England , I brought her to the 3rd street one . She loved it Thanks was amazing . Crispy onions and garlic“

“This place is a whole vibe. Purely from a food perspective, the menu here is pretty standard Chinese fare and is above average though not incredible. The dan dan noodles are spice and solid. The walnut prawns were a bit too sweet.

The prices are also on the high side.

But what you're paying for is the setting and nostalgia. I mean, we dined in a converted train car!

The inside is dark, sultry, and decadent. The service is solid though a bit scattered at times.“

“Muy bueno!! la Nina fue muy linda. Se llama mayra muchas gracias!!! ☺️☺️☺️“

“Great service, fantastic food and presentation. Great live music. Was a great experience!“

“Good quality of meat. Very nice service. You could enjoy little desert afterward“

“best Thai food I've ever had and I have lived in Thailand“

“Stopped by for brunch and really enjoyed the experience. The atmosphere is stylish, cozy, and perfect for a relaxed meal with friends or a casual date. The food was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. You can tell they put effort into both the quality and presentation of each dish.

The staff was friendly and welcoming throughout our visit. Overall, it’s a great spot if you’re looking for a modern Asian fusion brunch in LA. I’d definitely come back to try more of the menu!“

“First time here and I ordered a Pad Thai from the lunch special ($12) menu. Their lunch service was attentive and the pad Thai was good. A salad come with the lunch special, and it’s very small. The tables are clean and the presentation feels homey. I recommend for a yummy lunch break if you’re looking for a quick, affordable lunch with a comfy atmosphere.“

“Amazing workers. Amazing atmosphere. Amazing music. Amazing Food. In life there are only a couple of locations I eat everyday; my mom’s kitchen, my neighbors kitchen, arthur’s kitchen, tanya’s kithcen, and pokitonik. I find comfort everytime I come here, whether it’s friendly banter with Mary, or Sushi Burritos made by Arpi. I have been to multiple 5 star restaurants in my life, but nothing even compares to this glorious establishment. Where else can you combine the three of the greatest of things in life into one small building, hot cheetos, boba, and teriyaki chicken. Can’t think of one? That’s because you’ve never been to Poki. If there was a 8th wonder of the world, is would be located right here. I used to resent this building because they replaced Yogurtland, but no more. This is the greatest experience of my life.“

“The portions were phenomenal! Compared to a couple other poke places the pricing felt pleasing and the food was just as good. I got a sushi burrito and a bowl and that sushi burrito filled me up and I ended up saving the poke bowl for later. The staff was great! I don’t know who was serving me but he was extremely helpful since it was my first time there! I can tell the staff knows how to treat their customers well!! :]“

“Me and my boyfriend had hookah and drinks here after dinner at yamshiro (upstairs) our server recommended this lounge so we checked it out after dinner. You have to have reservations on the weekends here as it gets pretty busy but luckily the host made something work for us I believe her name was Maria. She was beyond sweet and kind and stunning too!!! We had such a beautiful time, she gave us the best seats on the beautiful patio as we over looked the view! I highly recommend you guys go here. We will definitely be back!!!!!!!!!“

“Better ask "Why is your food So Great?" A huge fan since 1987 on Sunset. I wish you were closer...to Palm Springs... when in LA I have to stop and Eat at my favorite place, ever. Please do not try the Chinese Chicken Salad....Thank you for selling your top secret dressing! People, go try the Chins! You will love everything!“

“Great food and The people there are so nice!!! Love to support places like this!“

“Great place....spicy beef salad and mango sticky rice are awesome.“

“Amazing Food. We ordered quite a few dishes and everything was delicious! The Peking Duck and green beans were my favorite!“

“Absolutely AMAZING 🤩 🤩🤩 Just WOW 🙌🙌🙌 Must Try 💯💯💯 Will be back 😋😋😋 5 STARS all the way ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Sweet Maple was absolutely amazing! The food was delicious, the vibes were on point, and the staff made my birthday feel extra special. They even came out singing “Happy Birthday” to me and surprised me with the cutest dessert!Everyone joined in and sang along, and it honestly made the whole experience so memorable. The energy was definitely HIGH, and I felt so celebrated! I would absolutely recommend Sweet Maple and will definitely be back!“
