Little Tokyo
Nestled betwixt Downtown (proper), the Arts District and, ahem, Skid Row, to form a misfit tetrad of walkable neighborhoods, Little Tokyo is home to your next favorite restaurant coffee shop bar spot. Est. 1886 (i.e. in LA terms, pre-historic), it’s one of few remaining US Japantowns, and the well-documented taciturn cultural pride has protected its authenticity, skewing it less tourist-trap and more Taste of Tokyo.

Far Bar is the bar of choice after putting your name down at Daikokuya. It is about 50 feet from the ramen shop, so you can pop over real quick and grab a drink while you wait. For bonus points, enter in the side entrance and walk through the brick hallway into that sweet courtyard with picnic tables and string lights overhead. This area provides table service, which sure beats elbowing your way up to a crowded bar. If you’re into whiskey, this bar has a long list of that, in addition to burgers, sushi and other snacks.
