by TofuLover at Citysearch

MY JAPANESE FRIEND TOLD ME SOBA NOODLE IS VERY LOW CARB FOOD AND HAVE LOTS OF FIVER.

I ALWAYS ENJOY SOBA NOODLE WITH TEMPURA.

THEIR TEMPURA IS VERY CRISPY AND SOUP IS FLAVORFUL.

I LOVE UDON!

by Sheauen at Citysearch

get there early or be prepared to wait. its worth the wait though. this is hands down on of the best udon places in los angeles. good variety. if you like hot soba, their duck with hot soba is great for a cold la night. attention to detail in every dish and attentive and service.

• Pros: great udon, sushi, service
• Cons: small dining area

Sushi at Yabu is GOOOOOOD.....

by fnsa at Citysearch

It's not a scene, it's kind of hidden away with a beautiful and serene patio for when it's nice and warm outside...and the sushi is very fresh and very good..and not expensive! It's every bit as good as Wa further up on North La Cienega, and less pricey. The staff is super nice and the place has a warm, homey, almost romantic vibe. I'd go there with a friend or a lover...but not necessarily to impress some flush business clients.

• Pros: Warm and romantic atmosphere, good service, great sushi, value for the money
• Cons: None

Excellent Quality Food

by redbutler at Citysearch

Yabu is a small place that serves delicious authentic Japanese sushi. There are so many sushi places that have popped up around town, but Yabu continues to provide great tasting food. Typically, toro is the only sushi that will literally melt in your mouth. At Yabu, the yellowtail has the same results. Make sure to enjoy their outdoor patio for seating with a little fresh air. Although the seating is tight, the earth tones and overall balance are very impressive. A very nice place for a quick bite during the day, or a 2nd date get to know you a little more type of place.

• Pros: great food, great service, outdoor/indoor patio
• Cons: no designated bar area,

yabu was a great dining experience. The back pation was kind of rain forest-esque with lots of foliage and bamboo--a serene place to enjoy good food. I had different sushi's and sashimi's-excellent, and my girlfriend had a Noodle Bowl. You can tell the difference with fresh noodles, and Yabu does a great job.

• Pros: inexpensive, great patio, good food
• Cons: parking
