KETCHUP RESTAURANT - HOLLYWEIRD

Ketchup Restaurant, 8590 Sunset Boulevard, West Hollywood, 310-289-8590

Posted by Robert M. 6/1/2007 - I recently dinned at the much anticipated new restaurant, Ketchup, from the Dolce Group (Dolce, Geisha House, etc.). Perched on a 2nd floor space along Sunset Boulevard somewhere between House of Blues and Sunset plaza is a fun and uber hip new restaurant based on the theme of upscale and fresh Americana type food. Freshly made ketchups with your $10 fries and a cocktail hostess bringing round drinks on a cart. While although the atmosphere and LA hipster crowd was fun, unfortunetly, the food was disappointing especially considering the prices and the service was very slow (definitely a new undertrained staff but I guess that's to be expected at a new joint like this). Also, some of the presentation such as the salad was a bit much. If you like to literally eat a salad that is the size of a house, than this the place for you. Hopefully, as this places comes into its own, the dishes will get better along with the service. Next time I'm in the area, I plan to hit up the adjoining bar area that overlooks the strip.

KOI RESTAURANT - LOS ANGELES

730 North La Cienega Boulevard Los Angeles, CA 90069 310-659-9449

This LA hot spot features Japanese-inspired California cuisine with a stylish decor to match. This is a place where trendy young celebs and trendy wannabe-celebs come to see and be seen. Best to try get there early and on a week day to avoid the masses. Great place for to take a date as the ambiance is low lit rooms with many candles yet hip. Restaurant features a full rounded asian/californian menu and bar to match.

NOBUKO'S KITCHEN / NO NO HANA - LITTLE TOKYO
http://www.nobukoskitchen.com/

333 S. Alameda Street, 3rd floor, Los Angeles, CA 90013

Offering Los Angeles foodies with a Japanese at-home experience offering warm and delicious dishes that will have you coming back time and again to this Little Tokyo area restaurant. My favorite is the Crab Croquette but all of the food here is great. If you ever find yourself downtown and want to find one of those gems off the beaten path, this place won't disappoint. - Review by Robert M.
