(9/4/2011) – Just a quick update on the new coming Oreno Yakiniku BBQ restaurant, for the first post of this new blog. I spoke with the owner recently, and apparently they are going through some of the final steps, and waiting for approval with the usual Fire and Health Department. Of course those are the ones that usually hold things up lol. Although he was hoping it will open sometime in the 2nd half of September, if everything goes smoothly.

He also showed me some photos of the unit that were overlayed with some design concepts, which looked nice. It appears to be a decent size place, and has table configurations that will be good for both groups and couples etc. There is also another room that they plan to make into a sort of private party area in the future.

From our discussion about the menu, there will be a variety of meats, seafood, and vegetables for you to grill at your table. Also choices that are marinated or seasoned with different flavors ready for grilling. Plus a menu of appetizers that can be ordered from the kitchen .. and of course beer, wine, sake, etc.

The location will be on the third floor of Weller Court in Little Tokyo, Downtown Los Angeles. Hopefully I’ll get some photos in the near future. We’re looking forward to the opening. I think Oreno Yakiniku will be a nice addition to the restaurant group.
