Falling Off The Chair At Musha

By Taste-Buzz   Aug 26, 2007

After the bartender at Musha told me that the lady polished off her fourth decanter of sake, I finally understood why she fell of the chair with a resounding thud. Okay, so falling off the chair isn't the right way to describe it -- more like vaguely sauntering downward uncontrollably without the use of your legs. Either way, there I was, eagerly awaiting my serving of pork belly, when all of a sudden gravity and alcohol decided to combine forces and end this woman's evening in a very embarassing way.

Musha

By Potatomato   Aug 14, 2006

We wrote about the Santa Monica one long time ago, I finally tried the one at Torrance. My impression was not as good, it was overcrowded, the corner we sat at had no fan that my eyes were teary from the smoke. FULL REVIEW

Izakaya, Superman and Set Theory: Musha

By Daily Gluttony   May 15, 2006

What do food-blogging, Superman and set theory have in common? Read on…The last time I went to Musha, it was at their Santa Monica location and there was too much food for the size of our teeny tiny table. This time, Isaac and I went to their Torrance location and were almost in danger of not having enough food on our gigantic table. Huh? FULL REVIEW

Do Your Plates Come In "Shrink To Fit"?: Musha

By Daily Gluttony   Feb 27, 2006

There's a reason they call small plates "small plates" and that's because they're, well, small. FULL REVIEW

I Heart Valentine's Day, Feb 14th

By Best of LA   Feb 15, 2006

So many people I know are anti-Valentine's Day or as EDnbM calls it: anti-Hallmark Day. And I can understand why. Roses and chocolates can easily become devalued with the commercialization of the sentiments behind them. Fancy prix-fixe menus can get filled to capacity, leaving many to fend for themselves. And personally, I've had many a hallmark day to get me turned off by it... FULL REVIEW

Musha

By Best of LA   Jul 09, 2005

About a week or so ago, JT and I met up after work for dinner in the Torrance area. We usually end up at Mishima, a great little noodle restaurant. That day, though, we decided to try something new but still in the same Japanese cuisine vein. I shared my experience of Musha in Santa Monica and was intrigued to try the Torrance variety - to see what similarities or differences I could notice. FULL REVIEW

Musha Tokyo Cuisine

By Best of LA   Jun 11, 2005

Last night was the first time MS and I have had dinner together. We first met 12 years ago, had a similar circle in college, but never had the chance to just sit down and chat. Now living in the same city, we thought it was about time. Food is always a great way to bring people together. FULL REVIEW

Musha

By Foodie Universe   May 10, 2005

Why have I been to Musha more times than I've been to any other restaurant in LA? Most of the time, my obsessive drive to try new restaurants prevents me from revisiting even places I love, but Musha wins me over again and again. In a city where restaurants rarely bother to charm their patrons, Musha is a blazingly bright star, going above and beyond most places even before you walk in the door with friendly, always-changing chalkboard invitations like "Party all night long with Musha!"

Musha

By Eating LA   Feb 27, 2005

I'm glad I heard about Musha in Santa Monica on Chowhound, because it's hard enough to keep up with restaurants east of Beverly Hills. Musha is a cute, tiny Izakaya style restaurant on Wilshire near 5th. An Izakaya is a Japanese pub, but Musha's dishes are lighter, healthier and more contemporary than the typical Izakaya dishes, which are more like the Japanese version of fried zucchini sticks and other "bar food." Sakes, beer and wine are available, and a full dessert menu. FULL REVIEW

Musha

By Potatomato   Feb 08, 2005

Back to Musha. We got the Cheese tofu and the broiled mackerel again since they're so good. Others were all new stuffs we never try before. Plum Wine, too little (plus watered down on rock)! Three people, total $69 including tax and tips. FULL REVIEW

Musha

By Potatomato   Jan 17, 2005

Had a wonderful evening with Yan at Musha, an Izakaya (Japanese pub) place located in Santa Monica. The interior is more fancy and designy than their original branch in Torrance, which has lots of Japanese business men and ojisans there. According to Yan the menus are slightly different (Torrance's better?). They both are really crowded and noisy, i.e. waiters shouting in Japanese constantly, and offer interesting creative dishes. Drinks: Plum Soju and Grapefruit soju, White wine in the back. FULL REVIEW
