We had the most amazing experience at Kinjiro! Delicious and unique dishes complimented by the amazing service made the night perfect! 100% recommend this place!
This is a great restaurant. I miss it here.
Little Tokyo’s best “hidden gem” and maybe I should keep this place a secret but I can’t help but share. I love izakaya and I also love an intimate space. Reservations are email only rn and you make it two weeks in advance. The food is spectacular and the whole experience feels so special. Bring someone you love, eat good food, and talk all night.
Immediately as I walked in I was turned away with a rude tone no less despite an open table across from me that was ready to be seated. The server said reservation is required but I highly doubt that every customer at the moment had made one. It was one of the most humiliating experiences of my life as everyone there stared at me as I was walking out. The server did not have to make such a scene as if he were arguing with me.
This is definitely a nicer dining experience and the menu items are not cheap - nor should they be. My experience here was probably the beat food I’ve had all year. Our server was super helpful in our menu selections and had some delicious recommendations!😋
I tried a couple items from each part of the menu and none disappointed.
The truffle and organic udon was probably the crescendo of the evening but the salad and hot plates leading up to it were all carefully crafted and delicious!
I also highly recommend sampling several of the sake choices throughout the meal. Plum sake is to die for.
