Post Valentine's date with my Lady at Asobu was a great choice. Saturday nights seem very busy at this relatively new place, so glad the buzz is finding it's way. Strongly recommend reservations if dropping by on weekend, as I saw a good number of folks had to be turned away because no rsvp. Enjoyed every aspect: food, service, the setting. All really cool, real DTLA, and not touristy Little Tokyo. Star of night was the Japanese Sea Bass, a finely slit carpaccio in a light oil base. May be one of best single dishes I've had in all DTLA restaurants. And big props to Kentaro, who took care of us all evening. Excellent service. By the way, can't go wrong on Sake choices, we went through a bottle of a semi-sweet, semi-dry Sake from a small region in Japan. Solid. Maybe next time the Omakase, which based on folks who ordered it, looked really interesting.

Delicious food, friendly staff, small but welcoming space.

Norikaya is an amazing restaurant, which features incredible signature dishes served in a wonderful restaurant with incredible staff.

Excellent food and a fun ordering experience through the iPads. Great for larger groups, a fantastic find.
