n/naka

n/naka is one of Los Angeles's two-Michelin-starred destinations for kaiseki, a formal Japanese tasting format. Chef Niki Nakayama's thirteen-course progression is a three-hour, seasonal event in a minimalist, serene room. The fixed menu is built around precise technique and ingredients like abalone spaghetti and A5 Miyazaki wagyu. This is not a casual meal; it's a slow, curated dining experience priced accordingly.
