50 Best Asian Restaurants near West Hollywood

“loved! loved! loved! beautiful decor, awesome ambiance, great and friendly service and delicious food! reasonably priced! And so conveniently next door to the Whiskey, great for when there's a show you're going to attend. all the thumbs up👍🏼👍🏼“

“Lee’s cafe is a Taiwanese-style cafe with a hint of Hong Kong sparkle, serving the perfect mix of Taiwanese and Hong Kong food. The toast is absolutely marvelous, and I truly believe it is worth every penny. Unfortunately, I can’t say the same for the other dishes. The sesame cold noodles were good, but missing something—I felt they didn’t quite hit the mark. The wontons were delicious, but the braised pork belly rice was your typical run-of-the-mill rice. Nothing terribly special, but delicious nonetheless. The HK milk tea, however, leaned very watery and missed the signature strong tea taste of a HK milk tea.
Also, their bathroom sink was broken and put as a “use at your own risk”. Hopefully they have fixed this since my visit!
Yet, through all this, I would still return to Liu’s kitchen—for their toast!“

“I loved my dining experience there! The decor is warm and special; the service, impeccable, and the food is beautifully presented and delicious. I recommend the lobster spring rolls, the calamari and shrimp salad, and the duck fried rice. If you really like lemongrass, then try the seared scallops!“

“I actually really enjoyed all the dishes we ordered here, all the mains we got were excellent! Rendang was on the pricier side but honestly it was probably one of the best ones I’ve had!

Staff was nice and the restaurant was also clean.“

“We were greeted at the door, and given complimentary miso soup with our order. We got six different Yubu (buy five get one free). They were FANTASTIC. The torched salmon was a little overcooked, so it was a little fishy, but overall they were very good. Bulgogi and King Yubu were overall favorites.“

“The food is really good and cheap, plus its a really good portion of it. The atmosphere is pretty welcoming and feels good to be there. The most remarkable thing its the service, it is a really nice and good service in every way, best service I've had so far and will definitely go back.“

“The ramen 🍜 here is really good and the quality of the food is impressive. Ramen 🍜 bowls costing around $20.

I also tried the curry chicken 🐔 rice. The portion was a bit small, and the chicken was quite shredded, but the flavor was still pretty good.👍

The restaurant is clean and pleasant🥰. My only complaint is that the air conditioning wasn’t strong enough, especially in the hot🔥 LA weather. Overall, I enjoyed the food and would consider coming back.“

“A really wonderful dining experience! The food is so creative while maintaining integrity to both Thai and Japanese cuisines. It was really fun to be all seated at the bar for the Autumn kaiseki menu. The sommelier was so fun and friendly and recommended not only incredible wines, but bonus sake tastings well. it's the kind of place that does a fixed menu, but you wanna keep going back because it rotates and everyone's so friendly a perfect blend of upscale and Neighbourhood vibe..“

“The location is lovey and convenient. They have a fixed price menu which allowed us to have an amazing 4 course meal at a reasonably affordable price for the quality. The food was delicious and so creative. The service and staff are wonderful. They did an excellent job with timing the courses — and they really know the food and drink. This place feels like a labor of love and I’m excited to go back. Good parking for like $5 just up the block.“

“My first time there and I had a really great time, the food was delicious and our Servers were Amazing. Loved it!!“

“Fresh, healthy food w generous portions. I had the hana salad w chicken and the iced matcha cloud latte. The salad was fresh and their sauce/condiment bar made it extra tasty. The matcha was super yummy, on par or better with any specialty coffee/tea place. The Okinawa sugar made it elevated, though I ordered it less sweet. Will def be back!“

“Very good customer service and vibes I love the decorations and how clean it is. The ramen and potstickers were very filling and definitely worth trying. I keep coming back for the spicy tonkatsu ramen but the sushi was not very good especially for the price...

Another complaint I have is the chopsticks feel very cheap and hard to work with plus $2.50 for a can of coke isn't really something to look forward to with your meal

P.S. I'll definitely be back but I felt the need to give an honest review“

“Lovely outdoor seating and dog friendly 🐕
Food was delicious for the most part with reasonable prices and we'll be back. That said, the fried chicken on the sandwich was pretty disappointing, kind of low quality and gristly which put off the rest of the good flavor.“

“​⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Akai Asian: A Must-Try 5-Star Experience!
​[Disclaimer: This review is brought to you by a self-made professional food critic reviewer!]
​From the moment I stepped into Akai Asian, I knew I was in for a treat. The warm, inviting ambiance and the sight of happy, cordial diners immediately set a fantastic mood. I felt genuinely welcomed by the staff, who guided me through their extensive menu—and wow, was I blown away by the selection!
​For my first visit, I ordered the Chicken Bento Box, and it was easily a 5-star dish. It was a well-balanced masterpiece!
​The box featured a delightful salad with corn, which was perfectly topped with a nice sesame seed oil dressing—it was incredibly savory and very tasty. It also included four delicious California rolls. Alongside these were some fried veggies and fried shrimp. They were very pleasant; not overwhelmingly greasy or heavy, but perfectly fried right to the bite. Lastly, the star was the delicious chicken served on top of fresh veggies and rice. Everything was perfectly prepared, showcasing the high quality and fresh flavors of Asian cuisine.
​Akai Asian is a delightful setting with stellar service and truly exceptional food. I highly recommend it!“

“came randomly after a concert just because it was in the structure that i parked in and it was open late and damn i was not expecting the food to be so good. For higher end (in my opinion) sushi the price was extremely fair and the food was incredible plus the inside was super nice. On top of that lady that served us was super sweet and attentive def recommend as i’m super picky with sushi“

“We ordered Rose Teokbokki in first visit. I really loved it . Then we visited again to try the OG chicken Katsu and I really loved it. I would definitely go back for it. Portion size was very good for the price. Teokbokki size was huge. The service is very good .Very kind staff and customer friendly. I loved the ambience and the local Korean vedios running in the television which made me feel like I was in South Korea. The staff gave us miso soup as complimentary which I really appreciate. I would order it in my next visit as it was tasty. Overall I would definitely recommend for my friends and family.“

“Stopped by Tigawok in Downtown Burbank after going to the AMC nearby. We had seen this place before and finally decided to check it out.

It’s basically a build-your-own bowl setup where you choose your base, protein, veggies, side, and sauce. I went with the orange chicken with rice and chow mein. The orange chicken was really good and didn’t really remind me of Panda Express orange chicken, which I liked because it tasted like its own thing.

The portion was pretty good and I can’t really complain about the price either. It also wasn’t crowded when we went, so we were able to order pretty quickly.

Nothing really to complain about from our visit. Good food, reasonable price, and I’d come back again.“

“Small hidden gem for the area. CASH ONLY and the not very detailed menu are the only issues people may have with, but the food quality, portion and pricing are amazing. The sweet grandpa is just the nicest soul you’ll meet. Not the best English but more than enough to get by and take your order. Please support this business if you’re ever in the area! They offer take out but I recommend dining in for the fresh made food and sauces“

“I had an excellent lunch at Sushi Yuzu. The restaurant has a comfortable, welcoming atmosphere, and everything I ordered tasted fresh and thoughtfully prepared.

I started with the tuna sampler, which was beautifully presented and offered several different cuts and preparations of tuna. Each one had its own distinct flavor and texture, and the quality of the fish really stood out. It was a great way to sample the restaurant’s sushi and a perfect start to lunch.

The highlight, though, was the spicy tuna crispy rice. The rice was crisp and golden on the outside without being overly hard or greasy, while the spicy tuna was fresh, flavorful, and nicely balanced. It had just enough heat without overpowering the fish. I’d even dare to say Sushi Yuzu’s spicy tuna crispy rice was better than Katsuya’s, which is a very high bar.

The food felt refined without being fussy, and the quality made a casual lunch feel special. Sushi Yuzu is definitely worth visiting if you enjoy fresh sushi, especially tuna. I’ll absolutely be returning to try more of the menu.“

“What a beautiful restaurant. Loved the menu- so many delicious options, ended up getting the bulgogi plate and it came with so many yummy sides I was delighted. Also the interior is Titanic themed and it’s pretty and fun. Thank you 🙏“

“Amazing food here! We had the Coconut Chicken Soup. The bowl is huge and the flavor is deep. Also got The Pad See Ew which was really good. The Chicken Eggrolls are so good too. Service was great. The food came out quick. Parking is tight but we found a spot. Highly recommend this place!“

“I’ve been coming here for years because I literally live a block away. The place has increased in price since I first came here and the menu has changed and what I used to get is no longer on the menu. LION KING ROLL is my goto. It’s delicious. However….. Today as I approached the counter to get my food, a homeless girl walks in barges right next to me as my order is being processed and given to me, and asks “y’all got any miso soup?!?” Stinky and obviously covered in filth, no bath for probably years and a dirty soiled blanket wrapped around her, I was instantaneously disgusted. Miso soup was given to her and I don’t know what else because I got outta there before she could even ask me for money or whatever! You feed a pigeon and what happens??? A dozen or more come. This is a simile; a point I’m trying to make. Homeless are the root of the problems here in Koreatown. You feeding them is the hand the feeds the problem.“

“Best bowl of ramen (my fav tonkotsu) in the city! I’ve becoming here for at least 10 years and that ramen has remained so consistent. Also try the milk tea, kimchi fried rice and brick toast! Enjoy J- and K- pop videos while you eat. Love this place!“

“So happy we stopped by O Banh Mi for some delicious banh mi for a late to-go lunch while visiting Silver Lake! The lemongrass chicken and beef banh mi sandwiches were flavorful, fresh, and swiftly prepared, but what I really enjoyed was chatting with the owner, Natalie, who was so friendly and kind to me and my toddler. Vietnamese coffee was also perfect. We can't wait to return on our next trip back to LA!“

“Eat here about once a week. Always good. My fave is the won ton soup and the cashew nut chicken.“

“Manager KI Bae is a true Service oriented Manager, his attention to detail, customer service was beyond exceptional. His genuine sincerity is a true testament there is still individuals that care about their performance. The entire staff was great and the main reason why we frequently attend the Santa Monica location“

“I’ve lived in Mar Vista for years and somehow never knew about this place. Let me tell you… the fish is SO fresh, the rolls are delicious, but the spicy garlic edamame is on a whole different level of amazing!!!! Everyone is friendly, welcoming, and efficient. Definitely found my new favorite restaurant.“

“Been eyeing this place since they opened and finally decided to pull up. The inside is clean and you just order straight at the register. Staff was chill and friendly 😊
I grabbed the Taiwanese spicy noodle soup and some regular dumplings to go. Not the cheapest, but the soup? Honestly a solid win. The broth was flavorful with all the fixings, definitely hit the spot.
The dumplings were a little on the blander side (kinda giving Costco frozen dumpling vibes), but i drop them straight into that spicy noodle broth. Trust me, it completely levels them up and makes the whole meal so much better 🔥
Overall a really solid meal, I'd definitely come back to try more of the menu!“

“Best Thai in town 🤩

The food is amazing, and the staff is super friendly. I’ve tried A LOT of Thai restaurants in LA, and this is by far my favorite.

My recommendations: the green curry, the papaya salad, and of course, the mango sticky rice. 🤤
So happy to have Wirin in the neighborhood“

“The ambiance, food and service is great! Will be back definitely 💯!“

“Best clubhouse and support group around. I love that they have a great homemade Thai food restaurant and wonderful people that work there, especially the men at the front desk.

Absolutely warm and loving place with tremendous support and meetings. 💕🤟
Go and find out !“

“Delicious food, Always good quality. I have been going here weekly for over a year. The only thing that is frustrating, is that their closing time is not accurate with what they have it listed on google, I’ve had doordash orders go through that never came in, and i showed up to the location to be denied.. 30 minutes before listed closing time.“

“What a great surprise... Everything tasted fresh and the flavors felt authentic, and the staff were super helpful.

Instead of the standard yuzu or ponzu you find at most poke spots, the salmon ikura bowl came with a unique house sauce that paired perfectly with the fish. The poke bowl’s mustard ponzu was another standout and added a ton of flavor without overpowering the ingredients.

You can tell they put thought into the small details here. If you’re looking for a poke spot that goes beyond the usual formula, The Bop is definitely worth a visit!!“

“Viviana really makes the atmosphere an amazing experience. Her customer service and attention to detail is a 10 out of 10. She remembers when i bring my party of friends and welcomes them with a smile. She goes above and beyond and im greatful to have her as a server.“

“This place was amazing! First off the place is decorated amazingly! There was no wait but little parking. The waitress took our orders immediately and answered our questions about the menu. I was with three other people and we demolished 7 plates of sushi in 30 minutes. The food was delicious!!! We wanted to order more but our stomachs were about to explode with how much we ate.“

“Good food, I got the #1 and the portions were very filling. They offer samples of the teriyaki chicken which got me to order the dish. Although the actual dish wasn't as sauced, the meat was still tender and tasty. Only downside was that some bites of rice were uncooked.“

“Vegan review:

The food quality is really great. Tastes fresh and crunchy and its really good. I got the vegetable roll and it was good. Only reason for 4 stars is price. For what it is and where it is and how much was in the roll, especially it being only vegetables, it was quite expensive. I mean not too much but for the price a larger quality would be better.“

“Best deal in town. We’ll be putting this place on our favorite restaurants list to come back often.“

“Food was amazing. I ordered the pumpkin curry, flavor was great, default spice level was spot on for a pasty boy like me. Service was great. The location is a little odd but kinda adds to the charm. It always pretty quiet in there when I went so it's possible when there's more activity in the community center thing it could be a little less charming. I will definitely be coming back.“

“I cannot say enough good things about this restaurant and its exceptional staff!

While traveling late into the evening with our two young children, an unexpected transit delay left our family stranded downtown waiting on a long connection. Looking for a safe, welcoming spot to get the kids off the street, we popped in and explained our situation.

Even though we were only stopping in for a quick drink and not ordering a full meal, Robert treated our family with extraordinary warmth, kindness, and hospitality. He made sure we felt completely safe, comfortable, and cared for, letting us take all the time we needed to keep the kids relaxed while we waited.

It is rare to find a business with this level of genuine heart and empathy. Beyond the fantastic atmosphere, the level of service provided by Robert and the team is second to none. If you are looking for a spot with exceptional service and genuinely wonderful people, I cannot recommend them highly enough!

Thank you!“

“Love this place! Me and my boyfriend come here frequently and get the lamb kebabs, spicy noodle soup, stuffed mushrooms and fish cakes. The food tastes almost like a Korean/Mediterranean fusion. Their menu is huge and every time I try something new it tastes amazing. Their side dishes are often changing which keeps it interesting. The atmosphere is fun with lots of lights and tv’s often playing K-pop. We come late at night to see our favorite server who often gives us free gifts and is very welcoming. You won’t regret trying it out!“

“Incredibly flavorful and perfectly cooked crispy pork. Each bite had the ideal balance of crunch and seasoning, with just the right amount of heat to keep things exciting. Definitely recommend pairing it with the sauce — it brings everything together beautifully.“

“I visited Tony’s Barbecue to check them out.

They are located at the corner of the strip mall, very easy to overlook unless you are looking for it. The inside wall has their menu selection along with their prices.

They greeted me with a warm welcome, which made me feel at ease., they have 4 tables which will seat 14 diners. The service was friendly and professional.

I ordered their Chicken Inasal meal special and was told that it would be freshly made so it would take approx 15 minutes to prepare. It was ready in about that time,

The meal includes a small bowl of egg flour soup, a small cup Scoop of Java rice, 2 pcs of chicken leg/thigh. The Chicken was tender and delish, The Java rice was tasty, the soup was egg flour(?) soup.

The vibe of the place was a very Filipino cantina. I would recommend this place.“

“HATS OFF TO THEE BEST HIBACHI IVE EVER HAD!! Never Disappoints and I look forward to going every week! Taste is Amazing and FRESH!! They need to open a restaurant man!! That Spicy Mayo with Chicken and shrimp plate is a MUST !! And Customer Service is Top Tier Always!! Thank you HibachiLA
10 STARS ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ !!!“

“Wokshop is legit a hidden gem. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Ordained plate of that Jajangmyeon and the seafood Jjampong. It wasn't busy so the food came out super fast.
Man, the portions are massive. They are literally ignoring shrinkflation over here. Plus, the lady at the counter was so sweet and greeted us with the biggest smile.
The Jajangmyeon was straight fire. You can actually taste the wok heat in it. felt like I was eating in Korea. The seafood soup? It had the perfect kick and crazy deep seafood flavor. Noodle texture was 10/10 on point.
I was so stuffed but couldn't stop eating. Threw some white rice into the leftover spicy seafood broth. Absolute game changer, it just hits the spot. Did the exact same thing with the leftover Jajangmyeon sauce.“

“Absolutely loved this place. The food was fresh, flavorful, and perfectly balanced with just the right amount of spice. You can really taste the quality and care that goes into every dish. The Thai flavors were authentic and comforting, and the portions were generous.

The staff was friendly and welcoming, and the atmosphere made it a great spot to sit back and enjoy a meal. Everything came out hot and beautifully presented. This is definitely a place I’ll be coming back to and recommending to anyone craving great Thai food.“

“Don't let the fact that they're located inside a market fool you! This place serves up some of the tastiest Philippino food in L.A.!

I've been eating Philippino food from Phil House (Inside Pacific Islands Market, West Covina) since I first discovered them in 2015. I've moved to the westside since but was ecstatic to see that they opened a location in East Hollywood recently and had to try it out. It. Did. Not. Disappoint.!

I love getting their bbq combo with pansit bihon (btw best damn pansit I've had - they use vermicelli to make it).
You get 2 perfectly cooked moist skewers, a generous portion of rice and/or pansit, and their sour soup (yummerz).

I also like to buy their delicious, crispy af, fried smelt fish. Make sure to get their seasoned vinegar - you're going to want to dip them in that!

FYI siracha hot sauce pairs beautifully with this meal. Sadly, they don't provide it but lucky for you, they're located in a market that sells it.

Oh and I got dessert too. I can't remember what we got but it was some sort of tasty taro dessert.

Buen Provecho!“
