About this place
Visitors have noted that each skewer at Yakitori Torizen is grilled with care. Part of the pleasure is choosing a few yakitori skewers and putting together a meal, perhaps with a grilled rice ball on the side.
The listed menu includes familiar choices such as negima, seseri and sasami, as well as seseri wrapped in shiso, sasami with wasabi and cheese-grilled skewers. Since you can order them individually, you might start by comparing the different cuts, then add a wrapped skewer or a cheese-grilled one for variety. Listed prices include kawa at 100 yen, negima at 150 yen, seseri (meat) at 130 yen and cheese-grilled seseri at 180 yen. Some diners have singled out the grilled rice balls as particularly good. Alongside the skewers, the menu also offers vegetable options such as shishito peppers, shiitake mushrooms and grilled corn, for a meal that is not all meat.
Beer is available, making this a dinner option for pairing yakitori with a drink. One visitor described the dining room as compact, so consider booking if you are concerned about finding a seat. The restaurant is also presented as suitable for dining alone.
