What kind of place?
Fake reviews removedA yakitori izakaya just 1 minute from Shijo-Karasuma Station. Sources carefully selected free-range chicken from across Japan, changed daily, grilled over charcoal. First floor has only 5 counter seats. Known locally as the place you cannot get a reservation. Tabelog score 3.63, Yakitori WEST Top 100 2025. Dinner ¥3,000-4,000.
I know no other place in Kyoto where you can eat domestic free-range yakitori at this price. Booked weeks in advance and it was totally worth it. 299 Tabelog reviews, score 3.63. Yakitori WEST Top 100 2025.
