Poke Heaven
Hawaiian restaurant · Sundance Place
Newest fave poke spot. It's hard finding good quality sashimi, so this place really hits the spot. You can customize your bowl however you want, and their in-house drinks are pretty sweet too.
Hwaro
Korean barbecue restaurant · The Asian District
Probably the best kbbq I've ever had, even considering Ktown LA. It was totally worth getting the family combo on Thanksgiving instead of a turkey dinner somewhere else.
Cafe Sanuki
Permanently Closed
Trendy, cute place with homey food. I love getting Japanese food here when I feel homesick. Their curry is bomb af and they also sell takoyaki, which is a big plus for me.
Los Arcos Birrieria y Taco Shop
Mexican restaurant · Huntridge
Hands down best tacos outside of Mexico and Southern California. It's quality and taste, off the strip so you won't be waiting in massive lines. Try their famous Birria tacos, Quesabirria tacos, and I personally also recommend their Pollo tacos.
