Budonoki is a modern Japanese Izakaya that serves mostly snacks as well as traditional pressed Japanese sushi and a few entrees, pairing perfectly with the sake-forward drinks menu. If you want to be transported to a cool-clubby underground bar in Tokyo then this is definitely the place for you.


This is a perfect restaurant for Los Angeles and a great neighborhood addition to Virgil Village. The energy is party-like and relaxed. The food and drinks are flavorful and punchy, making for a perfect refuge from the world outside this dimly lit, and cyberpunk-esque bar.
