Totoraku – Teriyaki House Pico: LA’s Secret Restaurant
I read about this private/secret restaurant ages ago and I really want to go!!!
I live right by this place. It’s a japanese restaurant rumored to have really awesome beef, which I love. The only problem is, the only way you can get in is if you “know someone”. They even keep the door locked to keep the public out! All of the reviews I’ve read have been excellent. Some of the reviews have said:
The first meat is tongue, followed by fillet mignon, inside rib eye, outside rib eye, short rib, and skirt steak. They are all tender and succulent. I’ve never tasted that kind of meat before. I love them all, especially the fillet and the short rib. The short rib just practically melted in your mouth. The fillet is very succulent and rich in beef flavor.I was in heaven after each bite, I think I even shed a tear.
best beef in LA
Also, their home made blueberry ice cream is the best ice cream I have ever had.
My mouth waters just reading the reviews. The chef supposedly considers cooking an art form and refuses to expand.
So if anybody here has the hookup to this restaurant…pass it along!!
