Best Japanese Restaurants in Atwater Village

The space is dark, food is remarkable and service is top notch. We had quite a few dishes including the crispy Brussels sprouts, sashimi moriawase, New York strip and short ribs. All were delicious. The evening we went, they had special cocktails celebrating the Wicked production at the Pantages across the street. Our celebrant had the Glinda, which was a very fun tasting drink - strawberry, Prosecco mix.

You can BYOB! Wish we had known this ahead of time, but the meal was outstanding, especially the scallop hand roll, the purple corn iced tea and the picarones for dessert. The service was friendly with just a few small delays because they were training new servers that night, but not a problem at all. Ambiance was lively and energetic. Highly recommend this place, we'll be coming back for sure.

Tried Mrs. fish for the first time for anniversary reservations and I loved it. The ambience is gorgeous and the art on the wall gives the best finishing touches to the interior decor. The food was 10/10 everything was very flavorful. Every single worker went above and beyond to make sure our visit was enjoyable, I definitely have to give them credit. We came during happy hour so everything was at a really good price, quality of the food was an amazing and the service makes me likely to come back! Definitely recommend

Surprised my husband for his 35th dinner and it was the best birthday ever! The service was fast and incredible!!! We had a party of 16 and I love that we weren’t forced to have a fixed menu. The heaters, the view and of course the food was incredible! This was my first time here and we were all so impressed and can’t wait to come back! Definitely a great restaurant for a celebration and even for an intimate dinner. Thank you Takami and Cole for making my husbands birthday extra special!

Good food, we thoroughly enjoyed our meal and the excellent service. I will be back.
