There is a yakitori restaurant near the Kyokueki station on Ike-no-ue. The structure is very narrow and long, with only about 6 seats at the counter. The menu is simple and displayed on a whiteboard. The food may come out a bit slow, so it may not be ideal for those in a hurry. The assorted skewers were tasty, with unique options like asparagus wrapped in pork and quail with natto. The liver had a slight off-putting smell, but overall the sizes were good and the food was well-cooked. The wasabi chicken was cooked through, and the watercress salad was refreshing. The egg porridge was a bit bland, could have used more salt. Overall, it's a local yakitori restaurant with a cozy atmosphere.
