Cozy Izakaya in Lomita: Hot Oden & Slow Dining π’β¨
Visited Shoya, a tiny 9-seat izakaya run by a husband-wife duo. Reservations are a must β itβs intimate and slow-paced, perfect for a relaxed evening. πΆ We stayed for three hours, ordering dish after dish: β¨ Dashimaki β soft egg roll with refreshing radish. β¨ Grilled Potato Cheese β rich, cheesy, and creamy. β¨ Takowasa β wasabi octopus, spicy and fresh. β¨ Tuna & Yam β sweet, silky, stretchy yam with tuna. β¨ Ginnan β roasted gingko nuts, nostalgic. π² Beef Sukiyaki β sweet, warming hot pot. π’ Oden favorites: daikon, fishcake, bamboo, fu pouches. A cozy, unhurried spot β bring time and an appetite! π π Shoya 1920 Pacific Coast Hwy, Lomita, CA 90717 #LAFood #Izakaya #JapaneseComfort #SlowDining #Oden #CozySpot #DateNight #FoodieExperience
