I visited a restaurant in Osaka for dinner alone. I went to Torikizoku, which was crowded, but it's easy to get a seat at the counter when dining alone. The best deal and delicious dish was the "Momo Kizoku Yaki," so I ordered two servings. I remember being asked, "It will be four skewers, is that okay?"

I entered the restaurant after 6 PM! It is located on the 9th floor (top floor) of the Ajiwai Bashi Building. They also have other options like Izakaya Nori and Shabu Shabu Onyasai. It was a weekday, so we were seated quickly! It was convenient to order using the touch panel! However, I thought it took too long for them to bring water when I ordered it... (laughs)

"Torikizoku offers great value for money. I became addicted to their tororo yaki. The restaurant is often crowded with young people, but the skewers are cheap and the cabbage salad is delicious!"

Very cheap prices no matter what.

28 Bird Party =========== I had a great time at the restaurant. The food was delicious and the atmosphere was lively. I highly recommend it!

I invited my cute subordinate to grab a meal with me, but they responded with a polite refusal. Feeling a bit rejected, I decided to treat them at a budget-friendly restaurant called "Torikizoku". Known for its affordable and tasty yakitori, it's a popular spot for students. The atmosphere may not be ideal for older groups, but it's a savior for the common people during deflation. I ordered a Kinmugi beer, which came in a large glass, along with some dishes like a Japanese radish salad, hot tofu with chicken broth, chicken skewers with wasabi, and more. The food was hit or miss, with some dishes being too salty or dry. Overall, it's a good place for young people and those on a budget.

I stopped by before the last train. It's close to the station, reasonably priced, and you don't have to wait long to get in, which is very convenient. I ordered about three drinks and a small snack, so I was able to drink for about 2,000 yen. The seats were not too cramped, but it was a bit difficult to call the staff. The fried chicken was delicious. I thought it was a student-friendly place because it was cheap.

The issue of Chicken Jiro imitating Torikizoku, which was making a lot of noise in the world, has been settled since November 4, 2015. Although I was interested in it, at the request of my friend Kita, I went to Chicken Jiro right after, and then went to Torikizoku for confirmation. It was around 6:00 pm on a weekend, probably about an hour after opening, but it was very popular! The place was almost full, and I really felt the high popularity once again. The lighting in the restaurant was quite dim with lanterns, and my iPhone (camera) died because it couldn't capture light in the darkness. First, we toasted! We left the food order to Kita. All items, both drinks and food, were priced at 280 yen each. We ordered potato fries, grated yam with grilled chicken, two pieces of thigh meat, two pieces of chicken meatballs, and chicken rice. Everything was delicious. The potato fries were Kita's favorite menu item, and he mentioned that they were a bit soft that day. The prices were affordable and uniform, making the payment process easy, but on that day, it was a bit too crowded. It had a very casual pub-like atmosphere, which made it a bit difficult to have a leisurely conversation over the meal. The food was delicious. Thank you for the meal.

After leaving the Itani-Kyu store at 5:15 PM on May 2013, I walked along Sennichimae Street to meet up with drinking friends at a recommended Torikizoku by one of them. The friend had been to a Torikizoku store in Suminoe area before, which is apparently owned by the father of Kanjani's Okura-kun. We talked about it because my daughter is a fan of Arashi. Completely unrelated, but Aiba-kun and Okura-kun worked together in the drama "Sanpo Holmes." We waited for about 5 minutes before being seated, even though there were only 2 groups of customers ahead of us. I ordered a beer to start, and we toasted with Asahi Super Dry. The edamame arrived, but it lacked flavor and seemed cold. The signature dish, momo-yaki, was watery and lacked the juicy flavor of chicken. The skin was also included, which seemed frozen. The salad was average. The chicken mince balls looked overcooked and black. The highly recommended kamameshi took a long time to arrive, but the broth lacked flavor. The staff seemed to be chatting with customers who were friends of theirs, and the atmosphere was lively. The restaurant is small, so the distance between tables is very close. We left early and the young staff near the entrance seemed bored but were smiling and chatting. My friend insisted on paying, feeling apologetic. Goodbye.

On a regular night after 9 pm, while dining at Wasabi next to the Matsusaka beef yakiniku restaurant M←Revenge, a friend's phone call invited me to join their party. I popped into the nearby Torikizoku, a popular spot known for its 280 yen menu items. Even though I didn't need much food after eating at Wasabi, my friends kept ordering one dish after another. The best thing I tried was the Tori Shiratama Men for 280 yen. The onigiri was huge and came with soup, while the yakitori was all generously sized and marinated in a secret sauce similar to KHOYO's. The hearts and other items were juicy and delicious, a great deal for 280 yen. The Camembert croquette was popular among the ladies, and the Japanese-style vegetable salad was fresh and tasty. The Torikizoku was always packed with a wide range of customers, from 20 to 50-year-olds of both genders. There were also many groups of girls. As a side note, why are the street promoters for Osaka food establishments so aggressive?

Bird Land is known for its affordable prices. However, lately, every store I go to is always crowded, and it's almost impossible to walk in and be seated right away. This particular store has a system where you can see your current number in line with a ticket outside, and they will send you a text message when it's your turn. But if you're not there when they call your number, you'll be skipped. I've been skipped multiple times. Despite being 8 groups back in line on my last visit, I was seated as the second group. However, the service was a bit disappointing as the staff took a long time to respond when I rang the bell, and even the drinks were slow to arrive. When I went around 9 PM, they had already run out of fried chicken, which was also disappointing. So, I ended up just snacking on cabbage while contemplating if I should just go for the grilled dishes.

There are many "Torikizoku" restaurants in the city. A beer costs only 280 yen. Not a beer, but a beer at this price. This day is for a second round, so just a light meal. Specialties include grilled chicken thighs, addictive cabbage, fried cartilage, camembert mochi, slippery skin with ponzu sauce, and lotus root tempura, all for 280 yen each. There are also limited menu items at this store. Overall, there are no major complaints, but I don't think it's particularly delicious. You get what you pay for. The lotus root tempura was crispy and tasty. The slippery skin with ponzu sauce was a bit watery. The staff were quick in their responses and the food was served promptly. However, before entering, you have to input the number of people on a touch panel to wait in line, but when there were empty seats and no one waiting, and the staff made eye contact with me, they still asked "How many people?" when I entered. I wondered why I had to input the information in the first place. I should have just spoken up...

I love birds and often go here because it's cheap, but no matter which store I go to, it's always crowded!! It's always full, so it's lucky if you can get in smoothly. Anyway, it's cheap. And the meat is big!! I'm always very satisfied! It may not be suitable for those looking for a calm atmosphere... There are many young customers, so the inside of the store is always noisy! I've been there many times, but the menu is extensive and I always have trouble deciding. The tsukune is a recommended item at the store and the taste is satisfying!! You should definitely order it! Also, the tori-kama-meshi is recommended. Please order it as a finishing touch!

■■■■■7th stop of the Gagagasp live■■■■■ It was a holiday at 12 o'clock when we thought we could eat a lot for cheap, so we decided to go to Torikizoku because it's the closest option. We went to the Chuo store in Sennichimae. The original recluse hadn't arrived yet, so we ordered a draft beer first and toasted. We ordered various grilled chicken dishes like yakitori, toridon (chicken rice bowl), and torichazuke (chicken over rice with tea). When the recluse arrived, we decided to order more dishes. Just as the food arrived, the recluse showed up. My drink was finished, so I ordered a light beer. Another toast was made. Torikizoku is amazing with everything priced at 300 yen. The yakitori and other dishes are delicious and reasonably priced. I think it's the number one chain restaurant. Recently, chain restaurants have been improving in quality, but Torikizoku seems to be leading the way. After the toast, the recluse mentioned a new restaurant opening downstairs. I asked what it was, and he said a motsunabe restaurant had opened below the building. They offer half-price motsunabe with every few drinks of beer or shochu highball. I didn't notice that! Let's go there now. To be continued... I have a Gourmet blog that is probably not very helpful, called "Kusakusa's recluse diary." Search for it and take a look! (laughs)

I go to drink with my work colleagues or friends when we have time. This place is perfect because we can fit a good number of people. The yakitori is delicious and the drinks are just right. I would like to go drinking here again!

Last night, I went with my colleagues. All-you-can-eat and all-you-can-drink for 2 hours, 2800 yen. It's cheap, right? I love chicken dishes, and the drinks were also all-you-can-drink. The 2 hours went by in a flash. The prices were cheap, so the restaurant was busy. The speedy responses from the staff were good. The crispy rice at the bottom of the chicken pot was amazing. It was really hot, freshly cooked, and deliciously seasoned. My colleagues only ate chicken dishes, but they said they wanted to try other dishes like fish or vegetables. I will definitely go again. It was cheap, delicious, and satisfying.
