Yakitana 7.7
Little Tokyo
Vibes: Quick Bites Champions Hidden Gems Heaven Late Night Legends
A casual yakitori-and-grill stop that sneaks in steakhouse energy via skewered filet, short rib, and beef tongue. It’s more low-key counter dining than white-tablecloth, but that makes it a great pre-show or spontaneous date option. Expect strong seasoning, quick service, and a relaxed Little Tokyo night-out feel.
Must-Try Dishes: Filet Mignon Skewer, Kobe-style Beef Rib Skewer, Bacon-wrapped asparagus
