    Omu-Rice with Hamburg Steak
    Kim B.

    We've been missing Japanese omurice and wagyu since we came back from Japan, so we decided to check out Red Rock. We waited for about 10-15 minutes before there was a table available. Once we ordered our meal, the food came really fast. I really liked the Angus Cut Steak Don. It was medium rare, tender, and flavorful. The omurice with hamburg steak and shrimp was ok. We were looking forward to cutting the fluffy omurice open, but it wasn't made that way here. The rice was wrapped with the omelet. The curry was strong and a little spicy. Overall, the steak and omurice was tasty, but it didn't blow me away.

    US Kobe Slice Beef Don
    Jessica C.

    Came by on a Friday for lunch and was pleasantly surprised that there was no line at all. I ordered the US Kobe Slice Beef Don in the regular size and added a Jidori raw egg on top. My friend got the Omu Curry & Rice with Cut Steak. Both dishes were delicious. One thing to note is that the regular size beef don is smaller than the large tower version pictured on the menu, which our server explained beforehand. The beef itself was served at room temperature, but the warm rice helped heat it up. At first I was a little surprised, but our waiter explained that the beef is roast beef and intentionally not cooked well done in order to maintain its tenderness. After trying it, it made sense because the beef was incredibly tender and flavorful. My friend also really enjoyed her curry and said it was packed with flavor. Overall, a solid lunch spot with friendly service and great food. I'd definitely come back to try more of the menu. A small little spot, but so many dishes to try!

    6/7/2026 3 Stars for food. 2 Stars taken off for rude customer service from the guy behind the counter! Not my first time at Red Rock, but first time at the Arcadia location. OMU-RICE HAMBURG STEAK As always, I chose the demi-glace sauce. Demi-glace was lacking in depth of flavor. It was good, but not excellent. Rice was done well with light ketchup flavor and not overcooked. There were bits of onion and red bell pepper in it as well. Egg was soft and fluffy. The hamburg steak was soft, like meatloaf. It was slightly underseasoned. ICED GREEN TEA Iced tea did not taste like green tea. It was very light in green tea flavor. Yes, probably from a tea bag, but still there's got to be some green tea flavor. It might have just been iced water. Got some samples of house hot sauce and pickled jalapeños. The hot sauce tasted like gochujang with soy sauce and maybe rice vinegar. It was not spicy. Underwhelming sauce. The jalapeños are spicy and they were sliced thin, which was better! You can order any of these sides by paying $1.50. SEATS This is a very small, corner restaurant. There were two bar seats on the side, about 10 tables and seats. LOCATION At the Santa Anita Mall. On the second floor, right across from Din Tai Fung. Come through Nordstrom's side and it will be easier to find. CUSTOMER SERVICE I was there on a Sunday and it was not busy. The server was kind and did his job well. But there was one Asian guy behind the counter who was just standing there. He was extremely rude from the moment I got there. He just kept on giving me weird and dirty looks. All I was doing was taking some photos of the outside of the restaurant and he just kept staring and giving me dirty looks. Went to the front to be seated for lunch and the server seated me. Server was very kind. Service was good and food came out at a reasonable time. But after I ate and paid, I took more pictures of the restaurant. The same guy who stood behind the counter, who was not doing anything but just standing there kept on looking with a scowl on his face. I just ate there. It's obvious I was a customer and he was rude still! Due to his poor customer service and extremely rude attitude, I will not be back at this location again!

    Great little restaurant on the second floor food court of the Santa Anita Mall. Quick way to navigate to it is that it's right next to Din Tai Fung. Seating unfortunately is limited to like eight tables or so, but the menu more than makes up for it. Red Rock specializes in Japanese Don dishes. So if that's your jam, come at them bro! Prices are steep, but worth it in my opinion. They use quality meats that's direct-fired on a grill. Everything is made-to-order and it comes out quick! Ordered the following: - Omi-Rice/Hamburg Steak - 8.5/10: Hella good. Thick, tasty patty on top of skillfully crafted and silky scrambled eggs that blankets a large serving of rice...and all of it smothered with their original sauce. Sauce isn't too overpowering, so the dish is well-balanced. You will be full after this meal. This would be my go-to if I came back, but there's so many other stuff on the menu! Will definitely be coming back as a good time was had by all!

    We were in the area so we had to go here again. Even my mom, who never likes new food, liked Red Rock and completely demolished her meal. No a single grain of rice was left after she was done. I was craving a katsu so I went with that this time. The tonkatsu was so crispy and the sauce kept the meal from being too dry. The husband got a bowl where they gave a generous amount of demiglace sauce, which was so rich. We keep wanting to try new places, but it's hard when you're in Arcadia and Red Rock is there to welcome you.

    Really good potato salad
    Alex B.

    This place is awesome. It's tucked inside the Arcadia shopping mall in the food court. I got the tongue and it was very juicy and delicious. It was thick cut tongue, which makes it a slightly different experience than your usual thin sliced KBBQ tongue. The white rice was exceedingly soft and fluffy. I would come here again. The service was good and the ambience wasn't that loud. My girl got the curry and rice pork cutlet. Super good! Crispy pork served alongside a deep, rich brown curry. A surprisingly good dish here was the potato salad. Very creamy. It came with Miso. Not a bad lunch set.

    Premium beef bowl spot that surprised me by how good it was. Located in the Santa Anita mall next to Din Tai Fung and Uncle Tetsu cheesecake. We went on a Saturday night and didn't have to wait long. Food/Drink- 5 stars US Kobe beef don- this was fantastic with the raw egg. This was so rich and flavorful. I loved how thin they cut the meat and how fatty it was. The horseradish sauce was so good as well. My only feedback is that I wish they had pickled ginger or some sort of pickled vegetables to balance how rich the meat was. I walked out of the meal feeling like I ate an entire A5 wagyu steak Hamburger steak- this was rich and flavorful as well. Same comments as above. Really wish they had some pickled vegetables to clean the palate between those rich bites of beef Service- 5 stars Food came out quickly and servers were helpful with the menu Bottom Line Excellent Japanese beef bowl spot that offers a quick and enjoyable wagyu experience

    Omu-rice /Hamburg steak
    Katelin V.

    We came here after we couldn't get off the waitlist to dtf lol But I'm so glad we did! The omurice hamburg was so good and filling! It was juicy and the demiglaze sauce was a perfect condiment!

    US Kobe Slice Beef Don
    Rachel D.

    Expensive for what it is, but definitely worth a try since you can't find this around the area. We missed the opportunity to try this in Japan. We got the Kobe Sliced Beef Don and Curry Rice with Hamburg Steak. Both are very flavorful and use high quality meat. The hamburg steak was very juicy and not too salty, which I love. For the price, we'd rather eat at a sit-down restaurant instead of a food stall. Despite the location, the service and ambiance were not bad.

    My bf and I go to the Torrance location pretty often and was excited to see them open in his hometown. Food is just as good however, the pricing here is wild. The regular 5oz don is $25.99 and the large (10oz) is $41.99. My bf always orders the large at the Torrance location and it is $29.99. Granted I believe it's only 8oz for the large there, but that's a pretty steep increase! Seating is also real minimal, mostly just at the bar and it's awkward being served food from behind and sitting so close to other parties. m

    US Kobe Slice Beef Don w/jidori raw egg
    Jennie H.

    Yall have no idea how many times I've walked past this place at the Santa Anita Mall but every time, I wondered how it was Food: Ordered the Reg size US Kobe Slice Beef Don ~ $25.99 for 5oz **highly recommend you add a Jidori raw egg for $2.50 Slow roasted and hella tender def worth! ‍People: they are very busy and have very limited seating available and don't let you save your place in line so you'll have to actually wait in line Vibes: it feels very similar to Japan restaurants as their culture is more of 'hurry and eat and leave' as the people waiting in line are staring and watching Overall, I would def come back and try other things in the menu as they do have a special menu and curry

    Angus Rib Eye Steak Don(Rib Eye Steak)
    William H.

    There's a new Japanese steak bowl spot that recently opened next to Din Tai Fung, and while it's not bad by any means, it didn't quite hit the mark for me. The bowl itself is clean, well-prepared, and made with quality ingredients. The steak is cooked nicely, and everything tastes fresh and relatively healthy--which I can definitely appreciate. That said, for the price point, I was expecting something more filling and flavor-forward. The overall profile felt a bit restrained. I kept waiting for that extra punch--whether from seasoning, sauce, or umami depth--but it never really arrived. It's the kind of dish that's pleasant and inoffensive, but also something I genuinely feel I could recreate at home without much trouble. Not a bad meal, just not memorable enough for me to return. If you're looking for something light and clean, it may be worth trying once--but personally, I was hoping for more.

    Omu-rice /Hamburg steak
    Evan M.

    Small restaurant on the top level of Santa Anita Mall near Nordstroms side, by Uncle Tetsu. Small eating area with bar top style seating. Not the most ideal eating setup, but efficient. Standout is their Sliced Kobe beef Don. The meat is thin and juicy. The sauce is flavorful. Highly recommend adding the egg on top (additional charge). This alone made everything worth it for coming here. It was quite pricey though but fair for the high quality and amazing dish. Their Omu-rice was okay, along with the hamburger steak. Pretty standard and a bit salty. Will be back for more of their steak bowls! Definitely consider a pass on their more economical dishes (hamburger steak/curry) as I feel their steak speciality is where it's at

We also ordered creamed corn to share as a group which was absolutely delicious. Probably my favorite dish tbh. My sister and I shared the bone in ribeye with a side of their daily veggies (sautéed green beans). This was fantastic. We got it medium rare and it was cooked perfectly. I also loved how they split it for us when they served it so we got our own plate. And my niece got the steak quesadillas which she seemed to enjoy as much as babies do lol.

There are 2 other North Woods Inn locations (Covina and La Mirada), one Steak 'N Stein (Pico Rivera) and one Clearman's Galley, also here in San Gabriel, aka "The Boat" for its signature red boat exterior. There used to be a Steak 'N Stein in San Gabriel as well, but now it's just a larger North Woods. The Galley has relocated and been enlarged a few feet south of its original spot; it's now akin to a sports bar, but kids are welcome. Both restaurants are on Rosemead just south of Huntington. A a child I was entranced by North Woods Inn's signature snow-topped roof. The exterior and interior are styled as a winter mountain log cabin hunting lodge. The interior is filled with lodge tchotchkes like taxidermied bears, mounted elk heads, stained glass windows of wintry scenes. The floor is strewn with sawdust and peanut shells you are encouraged to throw there. The dining room is on the dark side and has a full bar. There are several large banquet rooms beyond the restrooms. We came for the DineLA lunch. Note the restaurant has 2 entrances, the host stand is located inside the north entrance; look for the snow-topped entry arch and the Christmas pine trees on the doors. The main menu sits on each table on an easel. Every table gets a bowl of peanuts. The DineLA menu has 3 courses, all with options, at both lunch and dinner, with fancier options on the pricier dinner menu. Any beverages are extra. Here's what we ordered: 1) Beer-battered zucchini sticks. Ordered a la carte. Decent zucchini, but a smallish portion. The blue cheese dressing served alongside did not have strong blue cheese flavour. 2) Starter. Options were salads (house and red cabbage) or soup, plus cheese bread. The cabbage salad had a decent vinaigrette, the house salad's house dressing was rather bland, ranch-like I suppose. The clam chowder was okay, more potatoes than clams. There was another soup option I don't recall. The cheese bread was very good. 3) Entree. Options were petite steak and shrimp, petite filet mignon or jumbo coconut shrimp. We had the first two. The petite steak was a top sirloin, decently grilled with properly hatched grill marks. The 3 shrimp were supposedly grilled, served with drawn butter and lemon. The petite filet was indeed petite. We both opted for the baked potato side, with cheese butter. Large and pretty tasty. Other carb options were rice pilaf or steak fries. 4) Dessert. Key Lime Pie Tart or Chocolate Mousse Cake. The tart came wrapped in paper like a muffin, nicely tart with a bit of an aftertaste. Service was nice and attentive. Overall a decent meal, good value with DineLA. I'd call this a mid-level steakhouse, probably better than Outback but lesser than The Derby, Fleming's or Ruth's Chris.

The service was friendly, and every staff member we interacted with was genuinely kind and welcoming. As for the food, we started with the artichoke and spinach dip. It was good, but unfortunately, I don't think it was worth the $20+ price tag. The portion and price made it feel more like it should have been an entrée than an appetizer. Unfortunately, my salmon was served raw in the middle. I had to send it back, and by that point, I had completely lost my appetite, which was disappointing. My mom ordered the Asian chicken salad.

We sat at a table by the front window facing the main drag. The area definitely has an old town feel with many restaurants and shops up and down the street.

I started out with the Coughlin's Law cocktail (Aviation gin, house infused vanilla syrup, fresh lemon, egg white, lavender bitters, $16). It was a good light drink with light vanilla and lemon flavor. I always love a good foam top too. She started out with a Basil Paloma (Herradura silver tequila, muddled basil & grapefruit, fresh grapefruit juice, lime, simple syrup, seltzer, $15). It had good grapefruit and basil flavor, and was nicely balanced. We ordered the buffalo cauliflower appetizer ($14). The cauliflower was supposed to be grilled, but it seemed almost raw. The buffalo sauce definitely had a good kick. For my entrée, I had the Black Angus Basin Burger (manchego cheese, carmelized onions, arugula, special sauce, brioche bun, $19). The burger was excellent. The cheese, carmelized onions, and arugula was a great flavor combo. The fries were good, but I'd order them more crispy next time. She had the two taco plate with fish and potato tacos ($15). The taco shells were freshly fried, and it was a filling plate that she enjoyed. We had one more round of drinks and I had the Billionaire cocktail (Old Forrester 100 proof bourbon, lemon, house made grenadine, absinthe, $16). This was excellent. It was very balanced, and not boozy at all with a very light sweetness. Her second was the Smoke and Fire (Peloton de la Muerte mezcal, Ancho Reyes liqueur, muddled jalapeno & orange, fresh lime, agave, chili salt, $15). It was pretty well balanced with a medium smokiness. It definitely had a kick of heat on the finish. Our server Lakyn was friendly and provided good service. The menu prices are cash prices. There is an extra 3.5% surcharge if you pay with a credit card. The buffalo cauliflower appetizer was mostly a miss, but everything else was very good so I'm rounding up to five stars. They have a very good sized cocktail and food menu, as well as many beers on tap. They also have happy hour specials. We would definitely return if we were in the area again.
