πΌ Arcadiaβs Hidden "Best-in-Class" Japanese Spot β KIYO!
Guys, Iβve struck gold! π₯³ Tucked away in Arcadia is this low-key but absolutely outstanding Japanese restaurant β Kiyo Japanese Cuisine. After one meal, itβs already on my must-return list! β¨ π Must-order dishes β skip these and youβve missed out! π₯© Thick-cut Grilled Beef Tongue (Gyutan) π Rating: βββββ You HAVE to order this! This is seriously the softest, most tender, and juiciest beef tongue Iβve had at any LA Japanese spot! π The grilling is mastered perfectly β slightly crispy on the outside, but the inside melts in your mouth like butter, with no chewiness at all. Pure meaty bliss in every bite! π€€ π¦ Seasonal Live Lobster Sashimi π Rating: βββββ We timed it perfectly β lobster season! π¦ The sashimi was incredible: crystal-clear, sweet, and bouncy lobster meat that dances on your tongue! π π£ Seafood Platter: Uni, Oysters & Sashimi π Rating: βββββ βͺ Uni β Ice-cream smooth, naturally sweet, zero fishiness. So good I could eat a dozen! π¦ βͺ Oysters β Plump and juicy, served with citrus ponzu. Tastes like the ocean in the best way! π βͺ Assorted Sashimi β Salmon belly, tunaβ¦ each piece is thick-cut with beautiful marbling. Freshness level: 100! π― π Restaurant: Kiyo Japanese Cuisine (in Arcadia) π΅ Price: Mid-to-high range, but the quality justifies every penny β great value! π My take: You can feel the care in both ingredients and preparation. Itβs the kind of place youβll dream about and plan your next visit before you even leave. The vibe is classic Japanese β quiet, cozy, perfect for dates or small gatherings. Just for that beef tongue, Iβll be a loyal customer for life! #Kiyo #LosAngelesEats #LALife #ArcadiaFood #JapaneseCuisine #HiddenGem #FoodieFind
