New restaurants and pop-ups to try in Los Angeles this January

The Austin, Texas-founded sushi chain from James Beard award-winning chef Tyson Cole just launched a new, highly anticipated location in West Hollywood, with plans to open Oheya, an exclusive, 14-seat omakase restaurant, in the same building in 2024. Enjoy fish sourced from Japan’s Toyosu Market, select purveyors in Europe and as far as New Zealand, in sashimi, nigiri and daily specials, plus seasonal small plates and vegetarian options. Fish is also featured prominently throughout the omakase, as well as a “somakase” where servers build courses based on their favorite items. The spacious restaurant encompasses a dining room, sushi and cocktail bars, a patio and a private dining room, with almost 200 seats in total. The bar menu differs from Cole’s other locations, with highlights such as beef tartare with house milkbread. A full beverage menu is available with creative cocktails, sake and Japanese beer.
