I'm not a huge fan of westernized Japanese restaurants, so to be honest, I wasn't expecting much of this place. The ambiance is impressive & reminded me of a restaurant in NYC.
To my surprise, the food was excellent. The rolls, rock shrimp tempura, and veggie side dishes were all delicious. -

It's a great hidden restaurant in Santa Monica. It's a mixed Asian fusion low lit, themed restaurant. Good food in small portions. Great for sharing and a relaxing dinner. It can be as formal or casual as you make it. The service is very low key and friendly. Recommendable for a date or a semi-romantic night out. The price is a bit more than you're usual franchise restaurants. You'll need to order about 2 items per person, be prepared to share. The food is good. Go ahead and experiment with items you're not used to. You might end up with a new favorite dish, like caramelized tofu and /or tempura strawberries.

Just a heads up - Yu's been shut down for a while now... Not sure what they're planning on doing, but it's sad becuase it's such a wasted space on Montana!
