4 Restaurants to Try This Weekend in Los Angeles: June 27 | Eater LA

"Inside is a loud, tightly packed dining room with a fully open kitchen and an expansive menu—roughly 100 casual Japanese items—with portions as large as those at chain-style spots; combination and dinner sets are big enough to share. Standout dishes include a massive crispy pork tonkatsu curry served with a thick, meat-studded curry and sliced pork cutlet (paired with standard Bull-Dog tonkatsu sauce), a hefty 3/4-inch rib-eye beef teriyaki glazed in sweet sauce, and generous, crispy-yet-juicy tempura. The atmosphere is fun and relaxed, popular with locals seeking unpretentious, large-portion Japanese comfort food and serving as a solid complement to nearby, slightly more refined options." - Eater Staff
