OTOTO Covid Status (February 2021)Open for take-out and delivery onlyWhat Our Friends Are SayingThe Infatuation: "Ototo has one of the largest and most interesting sake lists in town, and there’s also some very good food to match. Chicken katsu sandos are all over LA these days, but this is our favorite version in town. The chicken itself is perfectly crunchy, and the housemade tonkatsu sauce adds a major punch of sweetness that somehow doesn’t overpower the rest of the components."Goop: "Like its sister restaurant Tsubaki, Ototo serves an iteration of Japanese pub grub. These are the snacks and bites you devour with beer and sake (if you’re looking for sushi and sashimi, look elsewhere). Once you start ordering and eating and ordering more, you just get it. Kara-age (Japanese sweet and sour fried chicken), potato salad with pickled carrots and ponzu, and miso-grilled eggplant is food made to be paired with cold, fizzy beer. Panko-crusted fried oysters and smoky daikon need the silkiness of unfiltered sake. Come on a Saturday night with a pack of friends as an excuse to order the whole menu."
