Daikokuya Little Tokyo

Daikokuya Little Tokyo is one of the best japanese restaurants in Los Angeles for dinner, especially if you want a strong option in Little Tokyo.

Little Tokyo has no shortage of ramen contenders, but Daikokuya at 327 E 1st St has a reputation that most of its neighbors on that half-mile stretch simply cannot match — and sustained neighborhood trust of that order is worth paying attention to.
