I seriously crave the food from this place, it's so good! Love Yuko Kitchen! My favorite's the unagi rice bowl and the apple mint lemonade is fantastic. Delicious green tea choco chip cookies too!

The standouts are the spicy salmon crispy rice , the iced honey latte , the apple mint lemonade , and the marshmallow blondie.

They have really good rice bowls . My favorite is the Unagi bowl. Mint Lemonade and Strawberry Soda are my fave drinks. Green tea chocolate chip cookies are amazing.

Ivy Kwan

I love this place! Generous portions with yummy dressing for the greens. You have to try the strawberry lemonade soda - super refreshing. So glad that I discovered this hidden gem in my hood!

Lazar Stojković

Very generous portions . The spicy salmon rice cake is simply wonderful. (It's a staff favorite, I was told.) Be sure to try the green tea chocolate chip strawberry cookie , too.

I ordered the vegetable plate which was so fresh and flavorful. My friend ordered the teriyaki bowl and it was also delicious. Great for vegans and everyone else. Yum!

April Arrglington

This is my FAVORITE restaurant in the #miraclemile. Great food, vibe, and they play great classic anime movies . Try the mint lemonade if u stop by. Delish!!!

Tammy Lee

Unagi (eel ) bowl is the best! Also would recommend the beef plate and green tea boba . Service is always great.

Jessica Lokumkiattikul

Spicy tuna rice bowl was good! Although the rice/spicy tuna to salad ratio was very off. Friend got the garlic albacore salad , was delish! Boba is eh but drinks are good. Cute Japanese hippy cafe lol

Jason H.

Quirky little Japanese bakery . Don’t come here if you’re hoping for a wide variety of sushi . But all the food is good and the matcha baked goods are cool.

Alex W.

The chicken vegetable udon soup is like the real version of the noodle soup from Kung Fu Panda . Also the chocolate chip cookies rule!

The spicy salmon bowl-lito is the best! Order it with green tea .

Try anything albacore on the menu and you won't be sorry. Spicy salmon cake is to die for! Only place I know that will put boba balls into my iced coffee . (YAY!!)

Garlic albacore was fantastic, I can't wait to go back and try more!

Food is good. Had rice and salmon based on Foursquare suggestion, it tasted good.

disappointed ! this place has everything to be perfect.... i took the salmon spicy bowl and ...there was just a little smashed salmon on top.... and i just had the feeling of eating a salad ...

I just happened to stumble upon this place and absolutely LOVED IT. I had a bowlito which was basically like a really big sushi roll with chicken instead of raw fish . it was FANTASTIC.
