About this place
For a taste of several skewers, the recommended set is an easy place to start, with 1 drinks included. The menu lists 2 tsukune skewers, plus 1 each of negima, plain chicken and chicken neck. One diner described ordering a different set with 2 tsukune, 2 chicken-neck and 1 triangle skewers. They found the pieces generously sized and the cartilage-studded tsukune pleasantly textured, rather than simply soft.
Some diners mention the seasoning and grilling in their reviews. One praised the salt seasoning and cooking; another particularly enjoyed the liver and chicken tenderloin. A diner who tried liver, heart and yagen cartilage recommended having fresh heart with salt. The skewer menu also includes chicken tenderloin with a choice of plum, wasabi or mentaiko, as well as gizzard and chicken thigh, available with either tare sauce or salt.
A diner recalled that grated daikon arrived first and made a good accompaniment to drinks, as well as a topping for the yakitori. For something more substantial, chicken cheese is another option. One order came with a small dish combining 2 skewers with cheese and tomato sauce; the diner said it was filling enough to enjoy like pizza, especially with Tabasco. To finish, there is Rock Curry, served with a croquette. One diner described its heat as spicy and full of flavour, offering a different ending to a meal centred on yakitori.
Drinks include draft beer, chūhai with flavours such as lemon, lime and yuzu, and both barley and sweet-potato shōchū. You could start with the drink included in a skewer set or choose something to go with the salt-seasoned skewers. The restaurant is also described as a good option for dining alone.
Diners say the interior is decorated with memorabilia of, and music by, Eikichi Yazawa. The menu centres on yakitori and small dishes, with the option of ending the meal with curry.
