This is a hidden gem on Sawtelle Blvd. the food was delicious with a friendly staff. No waiting, just walked in and sat down. I went for the yakitori beef, GYU beef with garlic and GYU teriyaki. Great for sharing in a big group.
Coming off the street and you immediately notice its dark and moody inside. Looks like a place straight out of Tokyo urban landscape. The Chicken wings were great, we got the straight outta the fryer, piping hot. The sauce although advertised as spicy was more tasty and savory. The Sizzling Rib eye was tender and the ponzu sauce stepped it up a level. Panko Fish Filet dinner box which had a variety of bites. Seaweed salad, Japanese Miso Salad, a potato stew, katsu chicken, crunchy fish filet and miso soup. A hearty meal for sure.
Lovely dinner on a Saturday night with no wait time and free parking in the back. Good for group of friends or a date.
I always love Yakitori. We (3) went there on a Sunday dinner, there are a bunch of people waiting. Was told might take an hour for the kitchen get the food out cause they were so busy. Wasn’t in a rush, so is ok for us to wait. However, we placed the orders and food came within 20 mins. Nice surprise. We ordered yakitori set, black cod, soft shell crab, friend chicken skin (so yummy) and beef ribeye with yakitori sauce. And drinks. Service is great, fast and food are yummy. Nice job.
Some of the best chicken I’ve had in the area. Furaibo has a unique interior that transports you to Japan, and a wonderful staff that was nice and courteous. Great for budget and quality.
Always great food here! I only give it a 4 because the service is a hit or miss whether it’s busy or not. I highly recommend the Chicken Karaage! I can’t find another place that makes it as good as them! Other tasty dishes: soft shell crab, baby shrimp, tebasaki, bbq short ribs, sausage fried rice, hanpen cheese.
Amazing Japanese style Izakaya. I thought myself being in Japan. Dishes are high quality and not so expensive.
There are also variety of Japanese beverage including beer, Sake.

Hanpen Cheese is a must order in Furaibo. Also first time I tried the Okinawa Pork Fried Rice. Taste really good even the portion is kinda small. But the taste is good, so nothing to worry about.
I haven't been to FuRaiBo since they closed their City of Industry location. Food was exactly how I remembered it, delicious! Staff was genki, didn't have to wait for stuff, great experience, will go again!
