"If your version of a big night out is still something a bit more subdued, yet special, snag a table at Kensho. This tiny wine bar behind Yamashiro is one of our favorite date night spots in the city, with tremendous views of the Hollywood Hills and excellent natural wine and sake, plus a rotating menu filled with snacks like salmon tartare, inari, and perilla bowls. Kensho is the kind of place you come to for quick drinks and dinner and end up staying for three hours." - brant cox, kat hong
