LA: Katana – Japanese restaurant in the heart of West Hollywood

Katana - Los Angeles

Katana is a hip Japanese restaurant in the heart of West Hollywood. The menu has a good selection of sushi and different kinds of Japanese small plates, as well as a wide range of robata (Japanese skewers), so no matter what you feel like digging into, you will probably find something that tempts your taste buds.

The food is served to share and depending on your appetite, you will probably need 2-3 small plates or 5-6 skewers and a salad, so expect to spend around $30-40 + tips on food (and more if you only eat sushi). There is a spacious and popular bar inside, so grab a cocktail to kick off the digestion, before you leave.

• If the weather permits, try to get a table on the outside patio, from where you have front-row views of Sunset Strip.

• Happy Hour every day between 17:30-19:00

• The robata starts at $2.5 a piece

Los Angeles is a city you don’t quite figure out all at once. It unfolds slowly, neighborhood by neighborhood, mile by mile. Vast and sun washed, cinematic and oddly intimate, it’s a place of constant contrast. Morning hikes in the canyons. Long lunches that stretch into late afternoon. Evenings that end by the ocean with salt in your hair and traffic humming somewhere in the distance. What I love most about LA is that it feels less like a single city and more like a collection of distinct worlds stitched together by freeways and palm trees. A strip mall might hide one of the best meals you’ll have all year. A quiet residential street can lead to a view that stops you in your tracks. The glamour is there if you look for it, but so is a relaxed, everyday rhythm that makes the city surprisingly livable. On this page, I’ve gathered my Los Angeles favorites. The restaurants I return to. The neighborhoods I linger in. The places that capture the particular mix of ambition, creativity, and laid back energy that defines the city.
