What People Say
"Best yakitori since I was in Sapporo. What a treat to have some true Japanese hospitality in the cbd."
Reviewers appreciate the authentic Japanese experience and friendly service, though some mention portion sizes could be improved.
"Very authentic, and the number of Japanese speaking guests is proof of that. But some portions were a fair bit smaller than I expected for the price - but maybe that's on me as a tourist. All tasted excellent, except I didn't like the yaki onigiri at all. The staff was very friendly and attentive."
"Was looked after so well which really topped off a great night of over eating. I had been previously which was a good time but every element had been leveled up this recent visit. A couple of the skewers that had salt could have just had a touch more but that is nitpicking. Will be back for sure!"
"Best yakitori since I was in Sapporo. What a treat to have some true Japanese hospitality in the cbd. Sugoi. Order lots, and saviour the true charcoal flavour infusion in these stick sized flavour bursts great selection of shochu amd Japanese beers."
