The 25 Best Restaurants In The San Fernando Valley

"Daichan is a tiny spot in Studio City that specializes in the kind of Japanese soul food you need after a terrible week at the office—like spicy curry udon, Japanese-style fried chicken, cold soba, and gigantic tempura rice bowls. That said, the main draw at this family-run cafe is the “original poki bowl.” Decades before chopped raw fish in plastic bowls became part of the LA food pyramid, Daichan was cranking out giant portions of fresh fish on top of rice and lettuce, so that’s probably what you should order here." - brant cox, sylvio martins
