On one of the most dynamic intersections for LA nightlife, this Euro-Asian restaurant is always a favorite with club-bound locals. Red walls, a large sidewalk patio, and a whimsical projection of a fish tank on the wall give the space a free-spirited attitude. Imaginative and large martinis kick off the menu, which puts an eclectic spin on Asian fare, featuring, naturally, fish. Spider rolls are massive, tuna is done up in three creative ways, and regulars always save room for decadent desserts like chocolate truffle cake.
