"Kochi is a small udon spot on La Cienega, and one of the few restaurants along that street that’s actually affordable and where showing up in pajama pants is entirely acceptable. Kochi’s menu is fairly big, but we recommend sticking to the signature udon section. If you’re in the mood for sea urchin, their uni cream udon is great - and at $18, pretty reasonably priced. That said, the mentai cream udon with red caviar is our usual go-to." - brant cox
