This Japanese yakitori restaurant on St. Marks Place is a standard haunt for students and Japanese expats alike. Sit at the bar for a view of the Yakitori master grilling skewers of beef, chicken, chicken hearts, pork, negi, and scallops. Everything gets coated in the same sauce, but feels like you're in the heart of a barbecue.
We had an assorted yakitori plate of beef, tsukune, aspara bacon, scallop/bacon and mushrooms, kara-age (fried chicken) and spicy tuna on a bed of rice. While the yakitori wasn't anything special, the spicy tuna and kara-age were really nice. Not too greasy, big chunks of dark meat chicken were dredged in flour and deep fried. A big dish of spicy tuna on rice is easil
y shared by two or three people and is a nice texture and flavour contrast to the grilled meat skewers.
