Excerpts

I had such a magical experience at Tane Vegan Izakaya in Highland Park. I first experienced Tane in Hawaii a few years ago, and it left such a strong impression on me. So when I heard they opened their Los Angeles location, I knew I had to come see if the experience would translate here — and honestly it might be even better. The sushi here is incredibly thoughtful and beautifully crafted. I tried the Pacifica roll, the Ewa roll, and the Baker roll, and each one had its own unique flavor profile. The Pacifica was a strong start with crispy eggplant, sweet soy, garlic aioli, and lemon that created a perfect balance of sweet, savory, and just a little heat. The Ewa roll was bright and elegant. The enoki tempura, smoked beet aioli, and lemon created a beautiful balance that made every bite feel layered and fresh. But the Baker roll really blew me away. The seared eggplant, tempura asparagus, burdock root, and gochujang aioli made it bold, rich, and incredibly satisfying. You also absolutely cannot skip the karaage — the potato-crusted marinated soy cutlets with spicy garlic aioli are dangerously good. I also tried the mango nigiri, tomato nigiri, and the agedashi tofu, and everything was flavorful, balanced, and beautifully presented. Beyond the food, what really made the experience special was the hospitality. A huge thank you to Izzy, Julia, and the entire team for creating such a warm, welcoming, and memorable experience. You can truly feel the care and passion that goes into every dish. Highland Park has a real gem here and I’m already looking forward to coming back.
