Little Tokyo Part II: Urameshiya

I love Little Tokyo. I have dined in 3 different restaurants and they all made me happy.:) Urameshiya is the most famous restaurant in the area, though it only opens at 5:00PM. At night, you will see loads of people, even Japanese, dining here with their Sake and sometimes even liver (gross, but some eat it raw), which is part of the set meals you can order.



Wagyu Set
GRRRREAAAAAATTTT:)


The awesome tofu salad.
I am not a salad nor tofu fan, though this is worth trying. The servers always say: favorite of Gretchen Baretto (probably hoping to condition you to thinking that you will look as great as Gretchen after you eat it) weird, but we ordered it anyway. haha!




Awesome ambiance, good food and efficient service. Price will vary, depending on what you order. Always ask for help when ordering to be sure you get the best sellers.
I shall return:)
Cheers!:)

Little Tokyo


Little Tokyo is an awesome place to dine. Despite what some people say regarding the decline in quality, I believe its affordable and worth every penny. Not all restaurants are open during lunchtime, so may want to check the place out after 5 pm. You can also park along Mile Long to avoid waiting for a parking vacancy. Ambiance is great as well.
The favorite here would be Urameshiya, which I will post soon:)


Jay and I tried 2 restaurants here. I would have wanted to order more, though the servings are big.

My Bento Set:)
I couldn't finish it cause it was so heavy!

J's favorite Buckwheat noodles with tempura
I don't understand why people like this. I find it weird.

More tempura!

Check out the way they present the condiments. Don't you just want to take them home?

This is my favorite! The beef was so tender and tasty. I would go back for more:)



We also had sushi which was so good that I forgot to take photos!
There's also a Japanese Grocery which sells cool stuff so you might want to check it out as well.
Cheers to more Japanese food and happy dining experiences:)
