HATCH 700 West 7th Street, Los Angeles, CA 90017

"Terrific restaurant to get Japanese street food. The staff is very friendly and provides great service. The food is made to order fresh. The grilled vegetables are all very good. The forbidden rice bowl had an amazing array of flavors throughout."

"Compliments to the chef Adonay, very kind and generous. Made sure my food was deliciously prepared. Service was what keeps me coming here. Manny and Miguel did an excellent job making me feel welcomed. My water glass was filled without asking and service was very attentive with amazing attention to detail. 10/10 make sure to give this place a try!! Every dish was unique and nothing short of delicious!"

"The servers here were very friendly and quick to take away empty plates. The bone marrow was seasoned just right so that it wasn't too salty, paired well with the mochi chips. Corn fritter/tempura was very crunchy and the green sauce helped lighten it up. Oysters were very fresh but smaller than I was expecting. Would come back again to try their yakitori items. They also did validate (discount) the parking."

"Had a great experience here last night. Nice vibes and excellent food. I was living in East Asia the last 15 years, so I would regularly frequent izakayas in Seoul and also been to Japan several trips. I was surprised at how good the food was here, some of the best yakitori I've had. The service was excellent and I recommend trying everything you can. My favorite was probably the beef tongue. Highly recommended"

"My friend loves this place and promised me I would love it as well and she was right on the money. We had dinner here after seeing a movie at the Alamo as it’s located in the same building. I’m gonna do a repeat of this sequence. We sat outside to enjoy the warm evening and people watch in the building courtyard. Everyone who works at Hatch, from the host to our server to the manager were so warm and friendly, knowledgeable about the food and drinks, had excellent recommendations and helped create a super delightful and delicious dining experience for us. Every. Single. Thing. we ordered was absolutely delicious, from the variety of skewers to the dishes we shared. The cocktails were made and mixed beautifully, with unique combinations of flavors that made my mouth sing. I appreciated the attention to detail on the presentation of the dishes and cocktails. I think my favorite skewer was the chicken meatball (comes with a soy sauce egg yolk to dip in and it’s divine) so make sure to order that. The fried chicken with squid ink batter was so delicious and unique as well. Like I said, everything was so good, and looking forward to coming back here many more times to sample more of the drinks and food menu."
