Ryogoku Taiko Yakitori Speciality Shop
Powered by Google
A specialty yakitori house set in the historic Ryogoku district, with a warm, refined Japanese interior reminiscent of an old Edo-era sake brewery, soft lighting, a high open ceiling, a counter, and roomy, relaxed seating. The kitchen takes a craftsman's approach: chicken is sourced by cut from different regions, grilled over Kochi binchotan charcoal by skilled hands, and finished with a rich house tare or Okinawan salt. Branded chickens such as Kinsou-dori and Iwai-dori star alongside vegetable-sommelier-curated seasonal salads and shochu aged in clay pots. A calm, upscale spot suited to dates, gatherings with friends, and family dining.
