Restaurants near South Gate Plaza Shopping Center

The food here is absolutely outstanding. it’s no wonder this place has thrived for nearly a decade and keeps people coming back. With excellent dishes, reasonable prices, and a perfectly cozy ambiance, it delivers a true dining experience. This is hands down my new favorite spot for a warm, intimate dinner with my husband. Last night, we tried just about everything and couldn’t find a single thing to complain about. If you’re looking for exceptional Italian cuisine with a modern twist, this is the place to be.

Very creative and delicious eclectic dishes. Same for the cocktails. Attentive and helpful service. But who really wants loud background music on a Monday ( or any ) Night?

I have been coming to Kato more than 5 times in the past three years and it is probably my best restaurant in Los Angeles .

The food was really really good and the servers were very attentive. One member of our party was limited in what they could eat, and the server (Chris) was super attentive and helpful in figuring out what would be appropriate for them. They remembered when people asked for ice of not and didn’t make us feel rushed even though we were the last to leave in our area. When the food started coming we wondered if we should have ordered more apps as they were really good (prawns, ceviche, and salmon tostada) but all the food was just as good and we were so full by the end. The one miss was we had marked it was one of our party and they asked several times whose birthday it is, which we told them, we thought we wouldn’t need to note it for the end but there was no celebration or candle, even though we ordered several desserts. Overall it was a really good meal and we all enjoyed ourselves due to the attentiveness and caring of the staff at Damian

great hosts; very cordial - great valet, great server
