Yakitori Torishun Kagaribi Akasaka — Restaurant in Tokyo

Great Yakitori Spot Near Tameike-Sanno Station

Like many other commenters, I completely forgot to take pictures, the food was just too tempting!

I really love the balance and attention to detail at this place. I ordered the 7-piece yakitori set, and each skewer delivered a unique flavor journey, starting with light salt and gradually moving to richer, saucier tastes. The progression is thoughtful and enhances the overall experience.

I highly recommend trying the “Obi” skewer. It strikes a perfect balance between the firmer, chewier part of the chicken and the juicy richness from natural fats. Absolutely delicious.

What stands out most to me is how well-portioned each skewer is the size and chewiness of the chicken are just right, making every bite satisfying.

The staff here are super friendly(especially mr. Bun), which adds to the warm, welcoming atmosphere.

A quick tip: try to arrive before 18:30. It gets quite crowded after that, and service can slow down a bit as the place fills up.

I’ll definitely be coming...

My absolute favourite yakitori ♥️ the 10 piece course is perfectly cooked with each individual skewer masterfully prepared and grilled. Each cut and piece of chicken really focuses on the unique tastes and textures and provides a wonderful range of flavours throughout the dinner. Their homemade lemon sour is amazing, and the selection of Shochu is incredible and well priced. Last, and perhaps my absolute favourite, is the homemade rum raisin icecream, actually made with Japanese black sugar Shochu. You absolutely have to try this to end the dinner on the perfect note....

You will miss it if you don’t look carefully but it is on the 2nd floor of a building! Once you walk in, the vibes are so fancy and sophisticated for a yakitori spot! We came on a weekday at 6pm and there was no wait. We chose the 10 course for 4000 yen which included 10 skewers with a starter and miso soup at the end. All were delicious and cooked to perfection! The boss and staff were all very friendly. Slight language barrier but they have an English menu that you can point at!...
