New place at Old Sasabune Location (sawtelle) ?

Hi all,
I am trying to identify the name of the NEW restaurant that took over the Old Sasbune location on the corner of Sawtelle and Nebraska ?

Any idea on the Food?
or what is good?
Reservations? Etc.......

A neighbor of mine owns the place, but I don't want to bug him if I do not have to.....

    Bar Hayama is quite good and there was an good thread on it in the last day or two.
    Always best to make a reservation but it is big with many venues (indoors, outside around the fire pit, sushi bar etc) so weekdays I doubt you need one. Weekends might be more crowded.

    I had really excellent tempura there on Monday. As well as good sushi/sashimi.

      Bar Hayama. Some Chowhounds and I had a great dinner there on Friday, Sauce Supreme's review should come up in a search.
