To celebrate Mother’s Day, we decided to visit Yabu Restaurant, as it is my mom’s favorite place for udon. Our experience at Yabu turned out to be delightful as usual, thanks to the delicious food, friendly staff, reasonable price and cozy atmosphere.

Their sushi is amazing! The way they plate their sushi is beautiful. I really liked their smokey eel and the sushi tasted so fresh! Family owned Japanese restaurant! Very cool place.

We were seated almost immediately upon end during the restaurant The service was also good. Our food was prepared quickly and how ordered. The food tasted good, but several items weren’t seasoned at all, e.g. chicken wings. Some of the menu items were also very pricey like the rainbow roll, which was about $17. Overall experience was good.

Used to be one of my favorite places for soba, but this last visit was rough. Some issues submitting our order (even after we confirmed what we ordered with the server) and with the bill. Maguro was also kind of fishy, not so great.

The quality of the food here is immeasurable. I have never been so impressed by a dinner in my life. I ordered various nigiri at the bar with the chef and my mind was blown. This is easily one of the best meals of my life. Insane value too.

The most refreshing cold soba I have ever had! The homemade tofu was amazing as well. Perfect meal for a hot summer day like this. Not to mention the fast service, think I got my entire meal within 8 min.

Was my favorite Sushi until just recently when they changed an order of sushi from two pieces to one piece. It’s a shame because it was one of the few Westside sushi bars to consistently have GIANT CLAM and always had soft shell crab.

My man Okyo makes the best sushi I have ever had. The Toro sushi was amazing. This was the most pleasant surprise of my trip to LA. Any time I go back to Los Angeles I head here for food.

All food is mild and soft. Feels comfortable and easy-to-digest when if I’m sick. Not a fancy and luxury but familiar restaurant. Fried foods are awesome. Recommended.

I was just introduced to Yabu by a foodie client. He says it feels like Japan. I’ll take his word for it. The food is amazing and the lunch specials are great. This is the Chirashi Sushi Set for $19.50. They have an outdoor patio if you don’t feel comfortable eating inside these days.
