š Irvine Late-Night Eats Reportļ½My Secret Yakitori Spot Is Finally!
Thereās nothing like enjoying yakitori on a cozy evening! Gokumi Ramen & Yakitori has that warm, authentic ālate-night dinerā vibeāfrom the atmosphere to the food. Soft lighting, the sizzle of charcoal grilling, and a faint smoky aroma in the air make it so relaxing. š¶āØ š„ They offer a good variety of skewers, and you can taste the care in each one: ⢠Crispy chicken skin thatās not greasy ⢠Chicken thigh with a perfectly charred outside and tender inside ⢠Beef tongue thatās springy and juicy Everything is grilled just rightātheir skills are on point! š š· Paired with a glass of the ownerās private red wineāsurprisingly harmonious! Rich with a hint of fruitiness, it complements the charcoal-grilled flavors perfectly. So satisfying! šš„ š£ I made a special trip to Irvine just to try this place after a friendās recommendation. Finally got to check it off my list, and it did not disappoint! All I can say is: totally worth itāand worth revisiting again and again! š« š¤« Psst⦠theyāre not just about yakitori! Their ramen is a hidden gem too. The noodles have that firm, chewy texture I love, and the broth is rich and well-balancedāsavory with a subtle sweet aftertaste. šš Have you discovered a late-night spot that feels like a hidden treasure?
