West Covina's Hidden Gem | Kopan Sushi & Ramen Bar 🇯🇵✨
Just had an unreal Japanese feast at Kopan in West Covina—perfect for group hangs or celebrations! Four of us ordered a mountain of dishes: fresh, generous, and Instagram-worthy plating. Here’s the breakdown: 🍣 MUST-ORDER HITS: • Negitoro Donburi – Silky tuna tartare + fat uni (sea urchin lovers, this is your jam!) • Ginza Sushi (12-pc chef’s selection) – Thick-cut, ultra-fresh, art-level presentation 🎨 • Item Bento (Beef + Takoyaki) – Budget-friendly and filling (salad, soup, rice included!) • Geisha Roll – Seared salmon + crispy shrimp + avocado = texture heaven • Crispy Rice Spicy Tuna – Crunchy rice base + spicy tuna = addictive • Baked Green Mussel – Cheesy, piping-hot umami bombs 🧀🔥 • Shrimp Shumai – Bouncy shrimp + zesty citrus sauce (unexpected star!) • Gyoza – Crispy outside, juicy inside (no grease!) • Nagasaki Nabe – Creamy seafood hot pot + crispy rice = winter comfort ❄️ • Ribeye Hot Stone Rice – Sizzling steak perfection (medium-rare = 🤌) ✨ WHY WE STAN: Sashimi so fresh it tastes like the ocean 🌊 Bento deals = steals Chill vibe + sweet staff (no stuffy sushi-bar pressure) 20−30 per person?! Yes, please. 📸 Pro Tip: Sit by the sushi bar for front-row knife skills! #LAJapaneseFood #WestCovinaEats #SushiLovers #UniObsessed #DateNightSpot #HiddenGems
