🗼 Arcadia’s Hidden Japanese Gem – The Ultimate Sushi Experience! KIYO
Hey everyone! I struck gold! 🥳 Tucked away in Arcadia is this low-key but absolutely outstanding Japanese restaurant—Kiyo Japanese Cuisine. After one visit, it’s already on my must-return list! ✨ 🌟 Must-Order Dishes – Don’t Miss These! 🥩 Thick-Cut Grilled Beef Tongue (Gyutan) 👉 Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ (Off the charts!) You have to order this! Seriously, this is the most tender, juicy, and melt-in-your-mouth beef tongue I’ve had at any LA Japanese spot! 👅 The grilling is perfect—lightly charred on the outside, but so buttery and soft inside, with zero chewiness. The rich, savory flavor is just unforgettable. One bite and you’ll understand! 🤤 🦞 Seasonal Live Lobster Sashimi 👉 Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ We came at the perfect time—lobster season! 🦞 We tried the lobster as sashimi, and the texture was incredible. The meat was translucent, sweet, and bouncy—it felt like it was dancing in my mouth! 💃 🍣 Seafood Platter: Uni, Oysters, & Sashimi 👉 Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ ▪ Uni: Smooth like ice cream, naturally sweet, zero fishy taste—so good I could eat a whole tray! 🍦 ▪ Oysters: Plump and fresh, served with a citrus ponzu sauce. They slide right down with a taste of the ocean—so refreshing! 🌊 ▪ Assorted Sashimi: Salmon belly, tuna… each piece thick-cut, with beautiful marbling and top-notch freshness! 💯 📍 Restaurant: Kiyo Japanese Cuisine (located in Arcadia) 💵 Price per person: Mid to high range, but the quality justifies the cost—great value! 📝 Final thoughts: You can feel the care and attention in both the ingredients and the preparation. It’s the kind of place you’ll dream about after leaving and immediately plan to revisit. The atmosphere is classic Japanese—calm and comfortable, perfect for dates or small gatherings. I’d come back forever just for their beef tongue! ❤️ Have you been to Kiyo? What’s your favorite Japanese dish in Arcadia?
