n/naka@Palms Los Angeles ★★★

Michelin Star Modern Kaiskei on Valentine's Day. Beautiful presentation & well-balanced dishes. Love Chef Niki Nakyama. Very humble and friendly. Chef Niki always comes out to greet the guests at the end of the meal. Devin is an exceptional sommelier and offers excellent recommendations. Tasting course $365 per person. Corkage fee $85 for 720mL. Limited free street parking or valet for $12. Reservations on Tock and are very hard to book.
