Izakaya Restaurants in Torrance, CA

“Best authentic Japanese food! My husband and I live in the LA city, and we drive to Torrance occasionally on the weekends, just to get Hachi! It’s so delicious. I can’t stop 😂
I wish they had one in LA. The food is consistently good and on point, and so authentic and high quality like the foods that I had in Japan. My Japanese friend recommended this place, so I knew it would be legit but it’s quite mind-blowing. I love getting motsu nabe, saba roll, and the beef tongue here in addition to suntory draft ✨and make sure to get a reservation ahead!“

“This place reminded me of an izakaya in Japan! I had such a great time—the food was delicious, and everyone was so friendly and welcoming. The tempura was super crispy and so good! I’d definitely come back the next time I’m in the area.“

“We ordered the signature bone-in chicken, the brussels sprouts, the fried spaghetti appetizer, and the matcha tiramisu. Everything was super yummy except for the fried spaghetti, I don't think it was worth it, it looked like a cup of raw spaghetti but the sticks were crispy. The bone-in chicken was very juicy and flavorful, and the brussels sprouts tasted great with the mayo. The matcha tiramisu was delicious as well. The waiters were friendly and attentive, the only complaint I have is that it was very noisy inside and a bit hard to hear each other talk. Other than that I have been looking for a chance to go back!“

“it was yakitori and izakaya place. it was sooo nice and good. it's pricey though, but that's what fine dining is right..!? so i think it is pretty good, to come with famz or colleagues 😃👍🥰“

“When you think about authentic Japanese noodle houses from the movies, this place is what probably will come to mind. Servers and entire staff were very friendly and welcoming. Food came quick and was very good. This would be my go-to sushi spot to bring friends just to show off the atmosphere. Highly recommend if you're looking for a good place to eat.“

“My experience was very good and the food was delicious. I would defiently eat there again.“

“The server was so Great. He is so respectful, attentive and helpful. He gives suggestions of what I will order being my first time in Wadatsumi. Thank you very much for the Awesome service.😊 I'll definitely come back with my friends.💯“

“Ended up getting spicy chicken Ramen, and to be completely honest, it's definitely One of the better Ramen spots I've had in a loooooong time here down in SoCal. The broth was just 👌, egg perfectly done and not to mention the quality of the meat. I really don't understand how this place only got 4.2. In my solid opinion this place is 4.9 at least , and for the price and the quality it offers I would definitely rank it 5.0. Overall quality of a ramen easily could be compared to ramen you would have in Japan.

Definitely would recommend, you will not be disappointed“

“Fresh sashimi and nigiri with good selection of sake and beer“

“Try the Black Shisen Ramen! It's my favorite.“
