"Chaya Venice has some significant changes at its Westside location. The 25-year-old restaurant got a big, bold new look about 18 months ago, and now the culinary team is ready to switch up the menu into something new entirely. Chaya Venice is now Chaya Modern Izakaya, leaning less on its crispy tuna rice, rolls, and raw bar, and more on meat skewers over fire." - Farley Elliott
