YESS Restaurant

YESS Restaurant and YESS Café and Wine Bar will be led by Junya and Team YESS, and traces its root to the sense and traditions of Japan. We will not be importing ingredients or culture, but will be digging in, enjoying and expressing the land and sea we share here in southern California. Junya's approach in the restaurant is artistic – he gets to the marrow of his subjects; the results are refined, elegant and simple. Japanese restaurant from Chef Junya Yamasaki, and Team YESS, celebrating the surrounding Southern California nature. Yess has a fully open kitchen featuring a Japanese wood-fired stove and charcoal grill; surrounded by a long cypress counter and a spacious, comfortable dining room. The restaurant is housed in a landmark 1920's former bank building in the heart of Los Angeles' Arts District.
