Inaba has been one of my favorite Tempura restaurant in LA for a very long time, especially after the original Komatsu closed (the new location Komatsu is nothing like the old). Dinner tonight was good as usual. Inaba also has one of the best soba in Southern California as well.
All 4 of us had the Tokujyo Tempura Kaiseki dinner for $45 each (great deal!). Comes with 5 courses.
You wrote Unagi here when I was writing about Anago, but, by commenting about the bone, are you implying that having the bone means you got freshly butchered Unagi?
$45 seems like a pretty reasonable price to me, assuming it was all good quality and well-prepared (don’t forget that OP had an unpictured dessert, as well).
It assumed it was, based on the raves the places got previously on CH. I only went once, but I thought the tempura was really lovely (so light and delicate).
Komatsu at the previous location had slightly better Tempura than Inaba. But was pretty close. Since the closure, Inaba is my Tempura go to restaurant. They also have one of the best cold soba in the LA area. Tough combination to beat!
