Little Tokyo

10 listings in the most category-balanced neighbourhood in this guide — culture, food, shopping, services and healthcare all within a few blocks.

What is here. Two Arts & Culture anchors: the Japanese American National Museum and the Japanese American Cultural & Community Center. Shopping means Kinokuniya and Rafu Bussan. Food is Marugame Monzo and Fugetsu-Do. Uniquely for a DTLA neighbourhood, the everyday services are here too — Anzen Hardware, FedEx Office, Little Tokyo Dental Group and The J. Morey Company.

How to browse. A neighbourhood that works as a single afternoon: museum, lunch, then the shops. Anzen Hardware and Fugetsu-Do are specialists worth a detour even if you are not otherwise in the area.
