Izakaya Mi Young

Izakaya Miyoung is an absolute hidden gem! We ordered the yakitori skewers, fish cake soup, and chicken wings, and let me tell you, every single bite was delicious. The portions were perfect for sharing, making it a great spot to come with friends. Our waiter was fantastic, attentive, friendly, and spot-on with his sake recommendation, which paired beautifully with our food. The vibe here is warm and inviting, and I loved the interior design, it really adds to the whole experience. This place is definitely going on my list of go-to spots. Can’t wait to come back, have some drinks, and try even more dishes from the menu!

Izakaya Mi Young (美荣) in Ktown is a hidden gem tucked away in a basement — perfect for a late-night drink. It’s relatively under-the-radar; you’ll need to walk down a stairwell to find it, giving it that “hidden in plain sight” charm. But the food and drinks? Truly impressive. The decor has an atmospheric Tokyo vibe — exactly how I imagine an izakaya next to a subway exit in Japan. Each table has a ukiyo-e curtain for privacy, but sitting at the bar also has its own cozy appeal. The menu covers everything from yakitori and sushi to traditional Japanese street snacks and sashimi. I especially loved their highballs — the yuzu and Earl Grey flavors stood out. We ordered several pieces of the chef’s special sushi, all incredibly fresh. The uni-scallop sushi was heavenly. The yakitori, cheesy

Atmosphere goes crazy, the restaurant is located downstairs and the vibe is great for dates. Came here for a date, food was great with selection of sushi and their uni is excellent. Loved their food selection and soup. Must order are their selected sushi menu! Parking can be validated in the plaza for only 3 dollars!

Food preparation and presentation was outstanding. The butter abalone was off the charts delicious. Fried squid was tender and crispy. Yakitori combo was mouthwatering… Sushi was fresh and not overly seasoned or sauced.

Amazing food, excellent service, and a great experience overall. We were seated quickly on a Friday night for a party of four. My partner and I had been here before, so this was our 2nd time here and the service was just as fast as our 1st time there! Our orders were taken quickly, and drinks and food came out very fast, which was nice. The food looked amazing and tasted even better! You will definitely need to order at least one of everything on the menu because there are no bad dishes here. We will be back very soon hopefully because this is definitely the best Izakaya experience we’ve had in LA!
