Yatai Asian Tapas Bar
What People Are Saying About Yatai Asian Tapas Bar
The Editor

Citysearch
In Short – This charming, elegant room finds a sexy Zen balance with red walls, sleek dark wood, candles, calligraphy and Asian pottery. A small bar and wood booths add intimacy, while the courtyard patio hosts a handful of tree-shaded tables beneath tiny sparkling lights, which illuminate the good looking club crowds. The menu offers small plates of whitefish yuzu pepper carpaccio, octopus potato balls, baked black cod, bite-size rib eye, and specials like roasted duck, Kurobuta sausage and tempura pumpkin.

A light in the dark
by dharmathug
Music curls through the air like smoke - iced sake trickles out of a bamboo shoot, a waterfall, my cup overfloweth.
Happy hour every night from 6-8PM, movie lights flicker off the wall, trees canopy the outdoor open air court, dark wood interiors wrap one in comfort. A cornucopia of select Japanese izakaya deliciousness for lunch and dinner.
A respite from the flow outside, a haven, a recharge, a gathering of friends.

Amazing Sushi and Amazing prices
by lisala0418
This place is great. I go there at least once a week, the service is phenomenal, the sushi is fresh and its very inexpensive. Definitely worth it. I recommend the seared albacore w/ crispy onion and the crispy rice w/ spicy tuna. I love that its my neighborhood sushi joint.
- Pros: Food, Service, Ambiance
- Cons: Parking might be a pain w the meters on Sunset but there is a paid lot

The BEST!
by AlmaLee
We go to Yatai at least once a week. (We even took the location into consideration when we bought our new house...we didn't want to leave the neighborhood!) The tapas are terrific and creative -- don't miss the spicy tuna on crispy rice and the light-as-air pumpkin tempura -- and the service is warm, attentive and friendly.
