    Such a lovely no frills establishment near USC run by the sweetest man who runs the whole operation. Not only was the service top notch (food came out quick with extra brownies on the side free of charge!), but the food didn't disappoint either. We both got breakfast combos and both were super flavorful and had great portions, especially for the price! We'll definitely be returning to try out the lunch menu and for those pancakes!!

    Tuesday, small, quiet family run coffee shop. No menu, just pick breakfast or lunch from photos. Ordered some breakfast and lunch, was given some fresh baked brownies. Street parking is difficult, as near county social service and health care. Definitely stop by if in the area!

    French toast

    Very nice place. Delicious food. The owner is very polite and kind. Would recommend 10/10 This is a cash only place, keep that in mind

    Chicken soup

    I have been coming here for almost 5 years now! Honestly this is the best place to eat! But if you come please please be patient to the old sweet man! He runs this place all by himself, from taking your order, to cooking, serving, cleaning, charging, he literally does it all on his own and his service and quality of food is still AMAZING!! Any dish you get you will NOT go wrong with, but i 10000% recommend his chicken soup! So so so good!!!

    Pancakes and eggs

    stopped by this place for breakfast and it was amazing! The pancakes were incredibly fluffy and the eggs were cooked perfectly, full of flavor and just the right texture. The portions were generous, and everything tasted fresh and homemade. The service was friendly and quick.

    This little hidden corner treasure serves amazing food , my personal favorite are the delicious soups, Trust me You definitely get more than your moneys worth. The owner and chef is such a kind genuine ma Man, whenever you hear someone talk about this place it starts with how delicious the food is and how amazing the service was. There's plenty of seating open room for you to stretch out and enjoy your meal solo or with the group. It's nice and quiet.

    Me and dad

    My dad owned the smog shop next to their original location called Mommas back in the 80s. I grew up on this food and never realized how good I had it until I moved away. The owners are the sweetest people you'll ever meet, the food is outrageously good... I've had it all.... But my goto is the teriyaki combo plate. I've never had better teriyaki sauce in my life. I probably had this for the first time when I was 2 or 3 and I just went to visit at 47. It tastes exactly the same and that is such a good thing. Go eat here, you won't be let down.

    Where's Kenny ?
    Franklin M.

    I remember eating at the original hole in the wall location next to Felix Chevrolet back in the 80's. They moved to this location decades ago. The inside doesn't have that much character but it's a simple mom and pop restaurant. The food was pretty good but it doesn't compare to the greatness that Kenny's had back in the day.

    free brownies at the end of our meal
    Ashley Y.

    We stumbled upon this place and it was the best customer service we've ever received. Kenny, the store owner, is so sweet and caring and will provide you with anything you want. The food was extremely fresh and homemade. The portions were very large compared to the price, such a great deal! I highly recommend this place for a great homemade meal with the kindest person ever! 10/10! Thank you Kenny!

    Combo soup
    Jesse V.

    This place is one of the best places in the area to come to. The owner is so nice to everyone who walks in and makes the best dishes ever. He even gives brownies to you with your meal ! Has been here 52 years and I know business has slowed down a bit for him through the years but I wish more people would come by and enjoy a meal. Combo soup is my go to.

There are many more flavorful authentic options throughout LA. The service was, well, nonexistent. The server never checked up on our table after the food was served. There's a strong possibility we would've ordered more food, definitely more beverages, had he checked on our table. At one point, a woman who appeared to be manager/owner walked into the restaurant, and her and server went to a booth at the back of the restaurant, closed the curtains and left the restaurant with no discernible servers for the duration of their "meeting". It took over 20 mins to simply pay for the meal. Overheard a table over confronting the server over a discrepancy over the tip amount, the 20% amount on the pay machine actually being more than 20% of the bill. This tracks with what others have cautioned. Location and ambiance is lovely, but not enough to warrant a revisit.

    The food at Kingyubu is honestly really good, which is why this experience was so disappointing…read more I placed a takeout order around 3:46 PM and ended up waiting until 5:29 PM for it to be marked as ready. Nearly two hours for a takeout order is excessive, especially without clear communication or updates about the delay. When I arrived, I was informed that part of the order had been sitting out for about an hour. I wasn't comfortable accepting food that had been sitting that long, so I chose to cancel the order rather than wait even longer for a fresh remake. Again, the food here is genuinely delicious, and that's the reason I'm leaving this review instead of simply never coming back. My issue isn't with the quality of the food--it's with the order management, communication, and customer service surrounding this experience. I hope management can improve these issues because the food deserves better than the experience I had.

    Kingyubu was packed when I visited, so be prepared for a wait. The place was busy from start to…read morefinish, but I appreciated the little extras they offered. They advertise a free soft drink for following and tagging them on social media, but I was pleasantly surprised that they gave me more than just the soda. The yubu was fun to try, and there were several healthy tea options to choose from. I honestly wanted to try them all since they're not the kind of teas you come across very often. The only downside for me was the roll--it was smaller than I expected for the price. Looking back, I would probably skip the roll and order a cup bap or a few more pieces of yubu instead. I also noticed quite a few people picking up to-go orders, so ordering ahead is probably the way to go if you want to avoid the long wait.

    Food 10/10 Service 10/10…read moreAmbiance 10/10 Walked in here randomly because it was something I had saved for a bit now and I already liked that I didn't have to look for parking on a Sunday 3pm in a busy shopping center. It was busy inside but still got seated without waiting. Insane quality of fish not one single item I ordered had an off taste. The fast that my spicy mayo and ponzu was full when I left goes to show how insanely well they prepared the food sauce wise. Overall great place I will be back to try more things for sure. All this food double the salmon roe and scallop sushi because it was that good I had to go for round 2 but all this for 80$ was insaneeeee!!!!! And of course leave tip lol. For sure coming back!

    Reasonable sushi eats in k-town…read more Went for a weekend sushi dinner. Theres some parking in the plaza, as well as street parking if you're lucky. We had an rsvp but wasn't busy when we arrived. Was sat immediately and served water. They have a pretty extensive menu of most things you'd find at a sushi cut roll spot. We ended up ordering the toro garlic toast, veggie tempura, ginza roll, and several pieces of nigiri sushi. The toro garlic toast was pretty good - sort of like a spicy tuna crispy rice situation ... but a little fattier and more garlicky than crispy. The ginza roll was pretty good too - a lot of fish in the roll and wasn't overwhelming with too much sauce. The tempura was good too- not super oily and all your typical veg involved. The nigiri sushi were pretty well prepared. The size was pretty good for the price - and each were accompanied by a small garnish on top or a little bit of sauce brushed on. All in all - I wouldn't say it's a date night place, but is a good easy eats sushi spot for rolls and nigiri for the price. Would recommend!

The space is cozy, dim, and stylish perfect for a slow, flavorful night of yakitori, small plates, and sake. The sushi is clean and high quality, the skewers come out smoky with that perfect char, and the wagyu dishes are the kind that make you pause mid conversation. Their sauces and marinades lean bold, and the plating always feels intentional without being pretentious. Service is warm, pacing is smooth, and the whole experience feels like a neighborhood gem that knows exactly what it's doing. A refined but relaxed izakaya with standout flavors, great energy, and a menu worth exploring bite by bite.

    If you're ordering skewers, the scallop, sea bass, and prime beef kushiyaki are absolute standouts…read more The scallop is incredibly tender, while the sea bass is the must-order. Even if don't like seabass, you must try this one! it's buttery, perfectly charred and melts in your mouth. The prime beef is equally impressive: tender, packed with rich umami flavor, and cooked to perfection. For a larger dish, you can't go wrong with either the sea bass or blue crab hot pot. It's so rich and comforting, the fish is always perfectly cooked, and it's more than enough food for two people. Be sure to order a side of seaweed and make your own hand rolls at the table. The kabocha salad is also unexpectedly delicious and pairs well with the other indulgent items in this order. They recently moved next door and they may be overbooking themselves so expect to wait quite a while- even if you have reservations.

First impressions: the place is pretty simple. Don't expect a super decorated sushi bar or that "wow, this feels like a hidden Tokyo gem" vibe. It's more casual and a bit plain inside. Service also felt a little... rookie. Our waiter was nice but seemed new to the job -- a bit unsure and not very engaging. Now let's talk about the food. We ordered a mix of sashimi, nigiri, and rolls -- salmon sashimi, bluefin sashimi, rainbow roll, Red Dragon roll, sweet shrimp, eel nigiri, and a baked salmon roll. Presentation was actually quite nice (orchids and plating looked great for photos, but the sashimi slices were thinner than expected. The fish tasted fresh enough, but overall the food landed in the "good but not memorable" category. Solid sushi, just nothing that really made us go "wow." If I were judging purely on food and atmosphere, this would probably land around 2.5 stars for me. BUT... here's where the night got sweeter. When the staff heard our daughter had just won her gymnastics competition, they surprised her with a free ice cream to celebrate. That was a really thoughtful gesture and totally made her night. On top of that, they also brought complimentary miso soup for our whole table (4 of us), which was a nice unexpected bonus. Little things like that go a long way, especially when you're dining with kids. It turned what would have been a pretty average dinner into a warm family moment. So while the sushi itself was just okay, the kindness from the staff bumped this review up to 3.5 stars for me. Would I go out of my way to come here? Probably not. But if I'm nearby and craving sushi again, I'd consider stopping in -- especially since they were so sweet to our little champion.

    Yesterday evening, June 12th, my mom and I went to Suehiro DTLA Cafe for dinner…read more I had visited this restaurant a very long time ago when it was located in Little Tokyo. Recently, it came back to mind, so I looked it up and found out that the Little Tokyo location had permanently closed. After doing a little more research, I discovered that they had relocated to DTLA. I had been craving a Hamburg steak lately, which was one of the main reasons I decided to visit. My mom ordered the Sukiyaki, and I ordered the Hamburg steak. We shared both dishes, and unfortunately, the Sukiyaki was unbelievably salty. It tasted as if someone had poured an entire bottle of soy sauce into it. Even when eaten together with the rice that came with it, it was still overwhelmingly salty. The beef was also very tough, which made the dish even more disappointing. As for the Hamburg steak, the portion size was extremely small. On the positive side, it came with a generous serving of rice, a salad, and miso soup. The Hamburg steak itself tasted good, but it was severely overcooked and heavily charred, which was a huge disappointment. Until recently, I wasn't particularly focused on my health, but both of my parents have been dealing with health issues, and seeing that has made me much more health-conscious. I've been trying to avoid burnt foods and charred meats whenever possible. I've also cut out ham, sausages, sugary juices, and sodas. Because of that, I was especially disappointed to see my Hamburg steak burned so badly that parts of it were almost black. The restroom required walking down a very long flight of stairs. While it was spacious and clean, it had a somewhat eerie atmosphere, probably because it was located in the basement. There were only stairs and no obvious alternative access, which made me wonder how customers with disabilities would be able to reach the restroom. The service was very friendly and welcoming. However, between the disappointing food, the inconvenient parking situation (street parking only--fortunately, thanks to my usual incredible parking luck, I managed to find the one available parking space), and the difficulty of accessing the restroom, I don't think I'll be returning. Overall, I was especially disappointed by the food, and for that reason, I probably won't be visiting again. But, I gave the tip 20%. Cuz, the service was friendly.
