It may be tucked inside a former firehouse, but kodō is more calm and cool than fiery. It's the kind of place where a boulder doubles as a desk and the abundant use of natural materials sets a serene tone. Choose from breezy, outdoor dining on the patio or come indoors for a menu that celebrates Kyoto cuisine, from robata to sushi, albeit with a California influence. The sushi and nigiri are so good that you won't even notice the trendy crowd snapping photos for their Instagram feed. Off-menu specials, such as the Japanese sea snail, are especially memorable, while sea bream and octopus are impeccable. A steaming bowl of little neck clams garlic and butter is dreamy. Up for something sweet? Cheesecake with passion fruit sauce and kinako crumble is a favorite.
