LA's Must-Try Japanese Pasta Spot
Living near Torrance, I'm usually indifferent to Little Tokyo's Japanese food—we have most options here, often better! 🍝 But this pasta shop is absolutely worth the trip! I still haven't found a replacement in my area! Their menu is extensive—it might take a while to try every pasta! 😋 Here are my favorites: 【Beef Ragu Sauce Spaghetti】 Their original beef, onion, and tomato sauce. Super rich and flavorful with large beef chunks—each bite is pure happiness! Perfect for winter~ ❄️ 【Puttanesca】 Tuna, garlic, anchovies, capers, and olive tomato sauce. Each pasta comes with bread and salad! The bread is amazing—my husband ordered this, and it was pretty good. Also highly recommend their Mentaiko! 【Creamy Crab Meat Gratin】 A must-order! Incredibly fresh and thick, with macaroni inside~ 🦀 One downside: they no longer validate parking 🅿️—it's $10 in the plaza. Try street parking! Also, they often have long waits and require the whole party to be seated. Plan ahead!
