Before the Philippe Starck/SBE makeover and the flash mob of scenesters made him into a brand label, Katsuya Uechi quietly opened this originating namesake in 1997. Those used to the glitz and glam of the Hollywood or Brentwood location will be surprised by the modest furnishings in the pocket-sized space. The culinarily astute (as well as those wary of hype) insist that this is still the best of the expanding network—which means an hour-long wait for your crispy rice with spicy tuna is an absolute.
