About Kojima

Watch Kojima on TikTok

Kojima is a Japanese spot in Sawtelle, and an eight-seat kappo counter with no menu and a Tokyo-trained chef. Regulars point to the poached eggplant and the snow crab. Expect a splurge-level bill. It was picked from The Infatuation's Sawtelle guide, so it is open and worth the trip.
