Best Pre-Theater Restaurants in Atwater Village

You get what you pay for. Andres restaurants are some Of the priciest even in LA, but the experience, food, menu, and ambiance is absolutely worth it.

We decided to celebrate Mother’s Day with the girls and the place is super pretty and the food price fair, the ambiance is cute and they are very accommodating to our event needs we just live it.

Outstanding experience! Delicious food with a great view.

Katsuya was an incredible experience. We went there for a date night and was absolutely in love with everything we had. We had the Katsuya Chef’s Tasting Menu ($85 pp) which included 1. Hokkaido Scallop Sashimi: This was sublime! 2. Spicy Tuna Crispy Rice: This was probably the highlight of the entire meal for me. Spicy tuna always slaps and the crispy rice had a very delicate hint of toasted sesame oil. Très bien! 3. Lobster Tempura: I’ve never really been a fan of tempura but this one was just exceptional. It was such a nice flavor. I think there was a hint of cheese. But whatever it was, I want more. 4. Wagyu Ishiyaki with Wasabi ponzu: I’m always sceptical about red meat and love it with more flavor infused. So, I was pleasantly surprised when I really enjoyed this. The wasabi ponzu, thinly sliced radish and shiso leaves were the whole package! 5. Specialty rolls: These were well-executed but I was mind blown by the rest of the food that I’d had and the flavors that were exploding that this did not leave a memorable mark for me. But still so good! 6. For the main course, we had a choice between short ribs and the cod. I went with short ribs. This was probably the best sears ever! I also loved the braising jus. 7. Finally for the dessert, we had the Miso Chocolate Cake with Vanilla Bean Marshmallow, Sesame Cremeux, Salted Caramel. It was an amazing dessert to finish things off. They had a few wine offerings, which I enjoyed. Our waiter was super sweet and ensured that we were occupied throughout. He was very knowledgeable and gave great recommendations. I loved the ambiance on the inside. Though it’s near one of the tourist-y parts of LA, once you’re inside, you don’t realise how busy it is outside. Overall, I enjoyed this spot immensely. 15/10 recommend.

Nice place! Wonderful food and the drinks are amazing! That had a DJ on Saturday
