As the day came to an end in March, we went to a yakitori restaurant to celebrate Tonchan's retirement with K-san, a big fan of the place, and F-san. The restaurant, called "Yakitori Tosshi," was located in a quiet area near Kanda Myojin. The interior was clean and inviting, with a cozy table in the back where we were seated. We started with a refreshing glass of draft Ebisu beer. The yakitori prices started at 300 yen per skewer, so we opted for the "chef's choice eight skewers course." The first skewer was lightly seared chicken breast with wasabi, followed by crispy chicken liver skewers. We also enjoyed juicy chicken thigh skewers with green onions and flavorful minced chicken skewers. We then switched to sake, trying the Hakurakusei Tokubetsu Junmai from Miyagi Prefecture. The meal continued with skewers of chicken neck, heart, gizzard, and tail, each offering a unique and delicious flavor. We also tried a dish called "peta," which was a rare and flavorful cut of chicken. The meal ended with a rich chicken soup that was so good we ordered seconds. To finish off, we indulged in a delicious chicken rice soup. Overall, the food was excellent, the staff was hospitable, and we had a great time. Special thanks to K-san and F-san for inviting us.

I went to the restaurant called "Yakitori Toshi-san" in Akihabara. It is located just past the electronics district from Akihabara Station, making it easy to access. This time, I chose the yakitori course! Every skewer was perfectly grilled and very delicious!! They also have a wide variety of sake, making it a great place to visit.

There is a delicious restaurant right next to Kanda Myojin where you can enjoy a course of 8 pieces of grilled chicken for 2970 yen. It is reasonably priced and the grilling, portion size, and seasoning are perfect. I highly recommend the chicken wings! The skin is crispy and the meat is juicy and delicious!

I visited this restaurant at the end of the year. With only about 20 seats and many regular customers, it was often difficult to get a reservation, but I managed to visit by calling at noon on the day. Customers who came without a reservation on the same day were turned away. The restaurant was busy, so they only offered an 8-skewer course menu (2,750 yen). The skewers included chicken breast, gizzard, negima (chicken and leek skewers), tsukune (chicken meatballs), cartilage, heart, wings, and ginkgo nuts. The meal also came with a salad appetizer and chicken broth soup. The gizzard skewer showcased the skillful preparation and perfect grilling. I wanted to try some rare cuts as an addition, but they were sold out, as were the three types of chicken delicacies. Perhaps they were adjusting their stock due to the year-end. I enjoyed some shochu, particularly the Yataimei from Oita (660 yen) and Sato's Kuro (880 yen). I wish it was easier to get a reservation, but overall it was a delightful meal. Thank you for the feast.

I wonder what it is. The feeling of discovering something. The feeling of luck when I happened to enter a great store. I want to tell my friends, but I don't want to post it online. I visited on a Saturday night. We arrived just in time, so we were told they only offer a course menu for yakitori. But everything was delicious! The grilling technique was amazing. I was very satisfied. Thank you for the wonderful meal. I will definitely come back.

Today's meal consisted of 5 items chosen by the chef: chicken tenderloin, gizzard, green onion, meatball, and cartilage. Additionally, we ordered Hatsu (heart) and Hatsu-moto (heart base), as well as duck thigh. Unfortunately, my favorite duck tataki was sold out. The Hatsu was a first-time try for me, it was soft and had a pleasant texture. The Hatsu-moto was tender and had a good flavor. As for the duck thigh, it goes without saying that it was incredibly delicious.

Today, I went out for a night of drinks with my work colleagues after a long time. We wandered around looking for a good place to eat near Akihabara Station and ended up walking towards Ochanomizu. That's when we stumbled upon this restaurant with a promising exterior and atmosphere. We didn't have a reservation, but luckily there was an available table so we decided to go in. We started off with some draft beer and ordered the chef's selection of 5 skewers, potato salad, and 3 types of chicken delicacies. The chicken delicacies included liver paste wrapped in seaweed, chicken skin salami, and chicken skin with ponzu sauce, all of which were delicious. The 5 different skewers were also very tasty, especially the half-cooked chicken tenderloin. We even added some liver skewers, which were also amazing. The cost performance of this place is great, the restaurant is clean, the staff is polite, and the chef is friendly. I rarely come to this area, but I will definitely come back for the delicious skewers. The soup at the end was also very tasty. Thank you for the meal. I will definitely visit again.

Great taste! Great atmosphere! Great prices! Omakase 5-piece course (with soup) ... 1,650 yen (excluding tax) Omakase 8-piece course (with soup) ... 2,750 yen (excluding tax) Individual items range from 330 yen (excluding tax) There are also a la carte dishes available. Japanese sake, shochu, wine, and plum wine have separate menus.

I rode my bicycle around the back alleys of Kanda to Nihonbashi. Even in a city I thought I knew well, entering the alleys reveals a different scenery, with cute shrines, dry goods shops, and izakayas tucked away between office buildings. This time of year, it's lovely to go out to the suburbs on holidays to enjoy the autumn leaves, but exploring the quaint back alleys of the city that you don't usually visit can also be quite enjoyable. It had been over a year since I last had the rib roast cutlet at Maruyama Yoshihei for lunch, and I discovered several izakayas, soba shops, and restaurants that I'd like to visit. It was a very enjoyable bike ride. On my way back, I stopped by a bike shop in Myojinbashi for adjustments, and they said I needed a cable replacement, which would take some time. So, I visited Kanda Myojin for a prayer. After the visit, as I strolled around the shrine grounds, I saw Akari-chan, the shrine's sacred horse! She is a small and gentle horse, very cute. There was a cultural exchange center called the Bunka Koryuukan open at Kanda Myojin. It had been under construction before, but now it was open. The first floor has a fortune slip distribution area, a cafe, and a souvenir shop. There is a hall upstairs, but it's not clear what it is used for. It's a facility that I'm not sure how it is being utilized, but it might be a nice place to take a break. After leaving Kanda Myojin and heading towards Akihabara, I found a large white lantern with "Myojinbashi Yakitori Toshi" written on it. They were getting ready to open for the evening. It makes sense since this is the correct Myojinbashi at the end of Onna-zaka. The storefront looks very nice. The name of the shop feels like an old snack bar and doesn't quite seem like a typical yakitori place. It has a sharp and understated look, but the lantern tells you what it is. Intrigued, I definitely want to visit, but I couldn't leave my bike unattended (laughs). So, I went home, called to confirm their opening hours, and then returned. It's convenient to have such places nearby. Inside the restaurant, there is an L-shaped counter on the right, small tables for two on the left, and one table each for two and four at the back. It's a cozy yakitori place that can't fit 20 people. Yes, it looks good as expected from the outside. I sat at the counter and started with a glass of Ebisu beer. After cycling around the back alleys for about 20 kilometers today and taking a bath, the beer tastes delicious! Fantastic. The appetizer was a salad with thinly shaved smoked chicken breast on top of vegetables. It's healthy. The smoky aroma of the smoked chicken breast and the slowly spreading umami flavor are nice. The yakitori started with a set of five skewers with chicken soup. The first one was chicken liver. It had a slightly unique taste, but the seasoning and cooking were excellent. It was very juicy, and the aroma of charcoal fire whets the appetite. The seasoning has skillfully brought out the umami flavor, so it's not salty at all. This promises good things to come, so I switched to sake and got serious! There is a refrigerator with quite a variety of sake labels lined up right behind our seats. It seems like the owner is particular about sake as well. There is a separate menu with business cards sized labels of different types of sake - regular, pure rice, ginjo, and daiginjo. Labels like Choshin, Juyondai, Buyu, Etsugaijin, Hakurakusei, etc., are all our favorite sakes, so it's hard to choose. However, they are mainly focusing on chilled sake now, and there are more varieties not listed on the menu. Oh, I see Juyondai Nana Taru Niju Kan on the menu. One cup for 3500 yen. Well, it's undoubtedly a precious sake, so there will be people who want to drink it at this price. Today, they are out of stock, but it seems they can procure it. I occasionally see it being sold for 60,000 yen online (laughs), which is kind of crazy.

Atmosphere: This is a yakitori restaurant located under Kanda Myojin. The interior has both counter and table seating, and the place is clean. Taste and Value: Definitely try the sorires, kobu, and harami here. The seseri is also delicious! The minced chicken rice bowl is exquisite. The chicken soup has a great broth. This is the number one yakitori restaurant in the area. Service: Credit cards are accepted. It would be nice if they became completely non-smoking instead of allowing smoking throughout the restaurant.

- When visiting a new restaurant, it is a rule to go after the investigator has done a preliminary check. Today, I had a reservation at a yakitori restaurant in Ueno, but it was full. Oh! Next to "Myojin Shita Miyabi," there was a yakitori place with no remembered name. Oh, there it is, peeking through the gap... I'm not sure. The atmosphere seems nice, but I wonder how it is. Oh, by the way, the place seems to have a "course-only" policy, which I don't like. To enjoy with a light eater like me, ordering freely from the menu is a must. Excuse me, it's my first time here, is the order limited to courses? - Ordering freely is okay. The mood inside the restaurant seems nice. I have to decide on a drink... I can't drink much, so I'll go with a beer. The menu has Ebisu draft beer for 600 yen. The beer is the only option. There are not many sour options, and shochu and sake are the main choices. I cheers with an Augustiner Edelstoff. It has a mild bitterness, more like a fruity beer. The food served as a starter is a chicken breast chip salad. I order the "Omakase Eight Skewers Course" for 2, emphasizing that I want one. The chef suggests the Five Skewers Course instead, but I insist on the Eight Skewers Course due to dietary restrictions. The skewers included chicken tenderloin, green onion, gizzard, meatball, heart, liver, chicken wing, and ginkgo nuts. As someone with experience, I try not to have high expectations for new places. Oh, it's even better than expected. The liver was overcooked and a bit disappointing, but everything else was perfectly cooked and delicious. The ambiance and flavors match well. I look for "Nikomi" but they don't have it. It's a different type of restaurant. They also offer rare cuts like knuckle, oyster, heart base, belly button, and Michihoru. The duck leg skewer costs 600 yen. I try the knuckle, which has a unique texture and fresh taste. The oyster-less oyster part is even better in texture and taste. Both my companion and I agree that it was the best dish of the day. It's as the French saying goes, truly exceptional. Although I would like to try around 5 skewers of it next time... The duck leg skewer was small but had a good duck flavor and aroma. I subtly asked the proprietress about it, and she explained that it's a rare cut. I couldn't find information about the knuckle online, so I'll ask about it next time. Despite the slightly inconvenient distance, my companion liked it, so we will definitely come back!

Recently, I have been exploring the area around Kanda Myojin. During my visit, I came across a yakitori restaurant. The interior had an L-shaped counter and a few tables. Since it was my first time there, I decided to order the chef's choice set of 5 skewers. Afterwards, I added a few more skewers of my choice. Chef's Choice (5 skewers for 1,500 yen + tax): - Chicken tenderloin - Chicken gizzard - Chicken cartilage - Chicken thigh with green onions - Chicken meatball The chicken tenderloin had a good volume and was cooked well. However, for the price of 300 yen per skewer, I would prefer if they used real wasabi. The chicken meatball was good. Other skewers: - Chicken heart: a tasty part around the aorta. - Chicken neck: also known as "seseri," the salt seasoning was delicious. - Chicken liver: had a good volume but lacked a firm texture. - Chicken tail: also known as "chouchin," served with a half-cooked egg yolk and spicy miso-like sauce. Pickles: The pickled plum with wasabi combination was not recommended. It would be better if they used real wasabi. Appetizer: Sliced smoked chicken served in a salad style, similar to bonito flakes but with a unique chicken flavor. Drinks: - Ebisu draft beer - Chicken soup served as a complimentary drink at the end. Overall, while the yakitori had good volume, the price of 300 yen per skewer puts it in the same league as popular and well-established yakitori restaurants. They will need to work hard to stand out in this competitive market.

Yakitori restaurant below Kanda Myojin. Started with the basic five skewers set, then tried the gingko nuts with chili, and the heart meat. Finished with a side of fried seaweed in soup. Had beer and sweet potato shochu, but they also have a good selection of sake. The amount of meat was satisfying, but the service was disappointing as the staff didn't pay much attention to the customers. They didn't engage in conversation and seemed unresponsive.

I happened to discover this restaurant on Tabelog when looking for a place to have dinner around Akihabara. I was curious about the quality of the food, but it turned out that the skewers were quite good! The unique tempo of the restaurant owner's fan waving left a lasting impression. (laughs)

It's been a while since I last visited. I had a great time with 8-course meal, draft beer, barley shochu with soda. It was delicious.

It's been a while since I visited. I enjoyed delicious yakitori and drinks with the 8-course meal. I will come again.

A friend who visited from out of town praised this delicious yakitori as the best they've ever had! It was tender and tasty. However, they often seem to be out of certain items. Rating: Taste: ★★★☆ Atmosphere: ★★★☆ Value for money: ★★★☆ Overall: 3.5 stars

This yakitori restaurant may not be flashy, but the work is excellent. The salt-flavored skewers are all moist and juicy. The taste doesn't make you want to drink a lot of alcohol, but it truly lets you savor the flavor of yakitori. I don't want it to get too crowded, so I won't give it a score.
