- KKatieLos Angeles •19 reviews5.0Dined 2 days agoKatsuya was fabulous! We had reservations for 5pm on the opening night of Wicked. We went through several rounds of ordering, including dessert and we made it to the theater with barely minutes to spare. But the server, Anthony and his team were amazing! The drinks, sake, and food were so fresh and super delicious! We loved the yellowtail sashimi and jalapeño appetizer, the popcorn rock shrimp, the tai sashimi and sushi, and the baked crab rolls. My husband also really enjoyed the whitefish carpaccio. Highly recommend the lychee martinis and the baked mochi balls (surprisingly light and delicious)! The food hit the table and it was demolished before we could snap pictures (lol). We ate, drank and spent a lot - but this was definitely an elevated experience for us. I can’t wait for the next special occasion so we can come again! What a night to remember!More infoKatsuya - HollywoodPrice: Expensive• Japanese• Hollywood•4.6
- EEmeryvipLos Angeles •47 reviews5.0Dined 6 days agoWe went early: 5:30. Was able to breeze right in and out and had a lovely meal. The service is fantastic and the food is even better. It can get pricey quickly, but they serve high quality seafood and they don’t skimp on portions. It’s fair to charge a premium. Glad I went and will be back again.More infoSeaweed Hand Roll BarPrice: Expensive• Japanese• Glendale•4.9

- EemilyLos Angeles •9 reviews5.0Dined on Nov 17, 2024I took my mom here for her birthday who is half Japanese and she had a wonderful time! We all really enjoyed experiencing flavors that were unique and fun to share with each other. We all ordered the omakase and ordered the almonds and chinmi separately. Maybe the only ding in the experience was the servers mispronounced omakase, which was weird considering it's a high-end Japanese restaurant. They don't put the emphasis on "ma", rather they make it sound like kamikaze which is off-putting at the ordering stage. I loved the Grilled California Holstein Beef Strip the most. It was so simple to look at, but the flavor of the beef with the salt crystals was divine. Loved the fresh seaweed shot with grapes! This made all of us say Wow! The omakase came with a mackerel sushi roll which wasn't on the menu, but it was a flavor bomb. The steamed rice was beautiful with the pork jowl. I could eat that rice on its own though! The miso soup was super tasty! I would skip the shiitake tempura but it's part of the omakase. Too oily, don't eat the whole thing. The new katsu with wagyu beef is a huge amount of food. My mom ate 1/4 of it and had to take the rest home, but my boyfriend ate the whole thing! The cocktails were fantastic, along with the sake pairings throughout our meal. The bartender was stellar. Loved the Yuzu Reviver (vodka) and the Old Fashioned. We left feeling full and satisfied, but not stuffed. It was all delicious! Expect a 2 1/2 hour delectable experience! Enjoy!More infoShibumiPrice: Very Expensive• Japanese• Downtown•4.4
