Hayato, nestled in Los Angeles's ROW DTLA, presents an intimate and exemplary culinary spectacle. Chef Brandon Hayato Go guides seven fortunate diners each evening through a meticulously crafted tasting menu of *kaiseki*, a traditional Japanese cuisine known as *washoku*. The experience unfolds at the counter, offering a direct view of the chef's artistry. Hayato currently holds two Michelin stars, a testament to its excellent cooking. Many courses begin with attractively arranged ingredients, then finished before your eyes, and presented by chef Go with detailed explanations. The tasting menu is a seasonal celebration artistically arranged on vintage Japanese pottery and porcelain collected by the chef.
