Best Comfort Food Restaurants in Atwater Village

Didn’t think it was possible for this place to get any better but I was mistaken. Stellar in every way.

Dining at Eigikutei was nothing short of extraordinary. Their vegan kaiseki dinner was a remarkable —each course thoughtfully crafted with precision and artistry, capturing the essence of traditional Japanese cuisine. The attention to detail was impeccable, from the delicate balance of flavors to the stunning presentation that made every dish feel like a work of art. One standout was the sesame soy broth used for the shabu shabu course—rich, fragrant, and deeply satisfying. Its depth of flavor perfectly complemented the meal, adding an extra layer of warmth and indulgence to the experience. The service was equally remarkable—warm, attentive, and reminiscent of our experiences in Japan. Every element of the evening, from the ambiance to the seamless pacing of the meal, transported us back to Japan. Eigikutei has set a new standard for plant-based fine dining. Whether you’re vegan or simply a lover of Japanese cuisine, this is an experience not to be missed. Highly recommended!

Great American café style comfort food. Unfortunately, we were the only customers in the restaurant at 8 PM on a Saturday night. Also, the risotto was too garlicky. Other than that, everything was great. 

Amazing place amazing atmosphere got there early so we decided to have some drinks at the bar to which Rigo attended us did a spectacular job on our drinks and was patient with what we wanted when are table was finally ready we sat down weren’t really sure what to order for appetizers but are server Luis recommended the katsuya ceviche which was delicious the yellowtail sashimi , the rolls of sushi when we finally ordered our entrees were on point and sent over promptly to end the night he brought us an assortment of deserts that really was the cherry on top I will definitely be back as the food was good but the service was great 10 out of 10.

Service was slow ( restaurant not busy) but excellent food, great atmosphere, delicious wine made up for it.
