A Spring Evening To Remember : Dining At Yamashiro Hollywood

There are restaurants you visit for the food, and then there are places you return to because the entire experience stays with you.  My weekend Dinner at Yamashiro Hollywood in the spring season was exactly that, a breathtaking escape from the everyday that lingered in my memory long after the final sip of my cocktail.

The Arrival: An Unexpected Journey Above Hollywood

The moment I commenced completing the hill towards the iconic hilltop property, it felt like I changed into getting into every other global nonviolent, delicate, and soaking wet in beauty. The gates opened to show Japanese architecture with tricky wood carvings, glowing lanterns, and a garden that whispered of centuries antique tranquility.

From the koi ponds and bonsai bushes to the panoramic view of Los Angeles stretching all the way to the Pacific, the setting changed into something out of a dream. As the sun glistened off the tiled rooftops and birds chirped quietly overhead, I paused—because from time to time, the beauty of a place deserves a moment all its personal.

Dining on the Terrace: Where Food Meets Sky

The table was set on Yamashiro’s iconic terrace. Hollywood was at my feet from here—the Capitol Records building in the distance, the hazy coastline, palm trees swaying far below. A soft breeze carried hints of citrus and sakura. It was already a perfect evening and then the food arrived.

Their culinary team is showcasing something incredible this spring: the Yamashiro Spring Menu. A seasonal lineup designed to raise the senses with sparkling, luxurious elements and an undeniable respect for taste and presentation.

Flavors That Match the View

A5 Wagyu Crispy Rice

Think rich, buttery wagyu delicately perched on perfectly crisped rice squares. Every bite melted like silk.

Edamame Truffle Dumplings

A blend of East and West the umami of edamame with the earthy intensity of truffle. Creamy, dreamy.

Pork Belly Okonomiyaki

A savory pancake like no other. Sweet, salty, and crunchy in all the right places. Comfort food, elevated.

Uni Carbonara

Ocean meets Italian elegance. The uni brings a subtle brininess that turns classic carbonara into something new. It’s luxurious without being heavy.

Not Just a Meal A Masterpiece in the Hills

Beyond the delicious food, what struck me was the feeling that everything from the plating to the pace was intentional. You’re not rushed. You’re invited to slow down, sip something seasonal from their craft cocktail list, and simply take in the view.

It’s no surprise that Yamashiro has stood the test of time. The building is a historic landmark, and every detail inside and out tells a story. Ornate woodwork, traditional Japanese art, koi ponds, and one of the most iconic views in LA dining, this isn’t just a restaurant. It’s a destination.
