About this spot
Located on the second floor of the Kichijoji Minamiguchi building, this izakaya serves up smoky, char-grilled yakitori that rivals the city's best spots without the tourist markup. Expect a lively atmosphere where you'll share skewers of tender chicken hearts and gizzards with fellow locals who know how to properly dip them in salt or tare sauce.
💡 Tips before you go
- Order the 'nomihodai' set if you want unlimited beer and sake while focusing entirely on eating grilled chicken.
- Ask for extra salt at the table before dipping your skewers, as this izakaya relies on simple seasoning to highlight the meat's quality.
- Arrive early in the evening to avoid the long queues that form after 7 PM during the weekend shopping rush.
