Set in a converted Craftsman in the historic Rose Park neighborhood, this inviting locale is removed from the hustle and bustle of Long Beach. Brother-and-sister duo Philip and Lauren Pretty run the kitchen and front of house, respectively, curating an experience that’s relaxed, but gets the details just right. On offer is a single multicourse tasting (priced quite reasonably) that highlights top-notch ingredients, including produce sourced from their nearby farm.

Helmed by chefs have a century of experience under their collective belts, Koi Japanese Cuisine may have a familiar name, but this spot stands firmly on its own. It's not hip or trendy, but it is beloved by regulars who are known by their first names and have a clear rapport with the chefs. Though it has history and heart, these regulars are here for more than just a warm welcome. From orange clam and kampachi to Kumamoto and Kusshi oysters, the sashimi lineup is impressive.
