Editorial Review for Yatai Asian Tapas Bar – by Martha Burr

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.

User Reviews for Yatai Asian Tapas Bar

5 Star Rating: Highly Recommended

This is without a doubt my favorite restaurant in LA. You get great food that is Nobu and Katana quality or better at a much more reasonable price and without the snobbish staff. This place is the best kept secret in LA right on the center of Sunset Blvd. If they hired a PR firm there would be a line out the door and up the street.

Pros: Food, Staff

Cons: None

5 Star Rating: Highly Recommended
